Excuse me while I have a good laugh! Diamond & Silk question 'systemic racism' at Fox News after

[mfcorey1]

being axed!!

In their new book, Lynette “Diamond” Hardaway and Rochelle “Silk” Richardson are claiming that Fox News pushed them out after they “dared to ask questions” that were also posed by white personalities. on the conservative network.

“Here is the crazy thing, y’all,” Silk says in the book. “Fox News hosts like Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham were questioning the same things we were questioning about the virus and pandemic. The very same questions we had raised were being discussed openly on Fox News.”

“When you really think about it, was this part of the systemic racism that everybody was talking about.

2. Oh, please. STFU and keep pocketing that repug money you've sold out for...

and acting as if you didn't know FOX and the repug party was racist.

Wonder if they're now thinking of an exit strategy since it looks more and more like trump is going to lose.

7. They also dumped Sheriff David A. Clarke, that black, cowboy hat-wearing, blowhard Trump flunkie

who was a fixture on FOX News for a time, attacking Black Lives Matter and "owning the libs" every chance he got. These kinds of people have a short shelf life...here today, gone tomorrow.

10. Not Important to Fox News

I think there dismissal has more to do with the fact that they were not very important to FOX News than with any systemic racism. Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham were likely much more important to FOX News than Diamond & Silk. Also, it is likely that Diamond & Silk said things that went farther than what was said by Carlson, Hannity, and Ingraham.
