American Muslim Group Calls for Advertisers to Drop Fox News Unless Jeanine Pirro, Tucker Carlson Are Fired
The Council on American-Islamic Relations is calling on all advertisers to drop Fox News until the network fires hosts Jeanine Pirro and Tucker Carlson due to comments by both hosts that the civil rights group called “Islamophobic.”
“Fox News must clearly state that Jeanine Pirro will not be allowed back on the air after her long history of Islamophobic hate rhetoric and the network must also take similar action against other Islamophobic hosts like Tucker Carlson,” CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad said in a statement. “All existing advertisers should drop their ads on Fox News to ensure that they are not associated with the promotion of hate.”
The council (more commonly known as CAIR) is one of the largest and most influential civil rights organizations for Muslim Americans.
Fox News preempted Jeanine Pirro’s weekly Saturday show on Saturday one week after the former federal judge suggested on air that Rep. Ilhan Omar may not fully support the United States Constitution because she is a Muslim — a statement that the network said last week that it “strongly condemns.”

If they lose both the judge and Tucker, they're DONE.

The only show I watch on Fox is Tucker.

Fox has been chucking pretty good lately but I don’t think they will drop the cash cow Tuck.
If I were in charge at Fox I would give all the pork producers in America free ads

It is CAIR. CAIR is a proven HAMAs front.

Does this group have any sort of power with advertisers? I can't imagine anyone losing a lot of sleep over this

You should listen to the first hour of Levin's show from yesterday (3/19). Completely breaks down CAIR and how it's a front group for HAMAS and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Will someone not come in and pick up the ready made audience? Fox's audience is huge, but on e they catch on they are not going to watch CNN lite if there is a decent alternative.

Paul Ryan will vote to fire both because he wants to make peace with the left

The anatomically correct, inflatable goat manufacturers are definitely on CAIR's side

Are they declaring a fatwa?

Both hosts however got a big assist over the weekend from their most famous fan, the President of the United States. In a series of tweets on Sunday, Trump rebuked the network after Pirro’s show was preempted and urged Fox to stand strong behind both hosts.
“Bring back @JudgeJeanine Pirro. The Radical Left Democrats, working closely with their beloved partner, the Fake News Media, is using every trick in the book to SILENCE a majority of our Country. They have all out campaigns against @FoxNews hosts who are doing too well,” Trump scolded. “Fox must stay strong and fight back with vigor. Stop working soooo hard on being politically correct, which will only bring you down, and continue to fight for our Country. The losers all want what you have, don’t give it to them. Be strong & prosper, be weak & die!”
“Keep fighting for Tucker, and fight hard for @JudgeJeanine,” he concluded. “Your competitors are jealous – they all want what you’ve got – NUMBER ONE. Don’t hand it to them on a silver platter. They can’t beat you, you can only beat yourselves!”
I would like to DJT tell CAIR to GFT

Notice it wasn't mentioned as CAIR until halfway through the article?

I’ve always found the idea of a burqua so soul sucking and dehumanizing to women. I would like to see Judge Janine deliver her response in a bacon bikini.
Even in her 60s I bet she can still rock a 2 piece.
