Fox fired Lara Logan?

What did I miss here? When did this happen? Maybe she didn't turn hard right enough.

1. She is an antisemitic nutjob

[WinstonSmith4740]

5. Absolutely.

She's awful, and right there with Tucker on the traitor scale. And for her to claim she was "tainted" by Fox is laughable. I didn't know if this happened a while ago and I'm just catching up, or if it just happened.

2. It's All About God

God intervened to spare her.

SPARE ME.

3. She went so far over the crazy cliff that she didn't even bounce. Sad and pathetic, really. A waste

[Poiuyt]

4. Was this related to her rant about evolution being a hoax funded by the Jews?

[WinstonSmith4740]

6. Take your pick.

She hasn't said an intelligent word in years.

[Poiuyt]

11. Neither have any of the other Fox hosts

[Skittles]

7. I really think she needs a mental health evaluation

something is really amiss with that gal, outside the fact she is a MAGAt

[Torchlight]

8. Somewhere along the line, she turned into a real space cadet.

I vaguely remember being impressed with her reporting during the Arab Spring (but to be honest, I know little of or about her)/

I can only imagine what she said that would get her sacked from a rw for-profit media outlet catering to its demographics.

9. I'm going to be charitable and just note that PTSD can ruin your life.

It's apparently ruined hers, sadly. Maybe her family can get her help.

[Raine]

10. After what happened to her in Egypt she seems to have lost

all her good sense. It's a shame because she did a decent job with her international coverage. I hope she gets professional help, she really needs it.

[WinstonSmith4740]

13. i wondered about that, too.

She had seemed pretty good before that. I would have hoped she got the therapy she needed after an experience like that. But it appears if she did, something didn't work.

[IcyPeas]

12. Hey Lara, I heard CBS is hiring.

[muriel_volestrangler]

14. They tried to pretend she was nothing to do with them after she likened Fauci to Mengele

As your screen name shows you might appreciate, the Daily Beast says she was 'memoryholed':

Fox News Has Ghosted Lara Logan After She Compared Fauci to Nazi Doc

Updated Jan. 14, 2022 3:55PM ET / Published Jan. 14, 2022 3:05PM ET

Since Fox Nation host Lara Logan compared Dr. Anthony Fauci to a Nazi war criminal last November, she has all but disappeared from Fox airwaves. In fact, it would appear as though the conservative cable giant took a stand on her increasingly unhinged rhetoric and cut ties with the once-respected journalist.

But even Logan is in the dark on where she now stands with Fox News. “I don’t really know,” she admitted during a podcast interview last week.

The former 60 Minutes correspondent, who since 2019 has hosted Lara Logan Has No Agenda on Fox’s digital streaming service Fox Nation, has yet to make a single appearance across Fox News Media platforms since her Fauci comments. Her Fox Nation program has not aired any new episodes and is no longer actively promoted by the network. Even the production company contracted to produce Logan’s series has quietly distanced itself from her.
...
The network has not once publicly remarked on Logan, despite how she’d been a frequent on-air presence and her digital show was featured prominently in promos for Fox Nation. Rather than make any on-record statements, the network merely noted to media outlets that Logan was an “unpaid guest” who hadn’t appeared on-air since the ordeal. And the network’s public silence continued even after Fauci himself said he was “astounded” that Fox hadn’t punished Logan for her “totally slanderous” comments.

15. Thanks for the info.

Naturally, I don't watch Fox, but had caught a couple of her rants, and wondered what was going on, and what she did for Murdock to decide she had to go.

And thanks for the catch on the name! Peopele here understand it, but you'd be surprised how many people don't get it. A few years back I was on an anti Bush Jr. site. Most of the folks there were under 30 at the time, and started discussing this GREAT book one of them had recommended called 1984, and how we were living in it. When I asked "where do you think my screen name came from", I could literally see the lightbulbs going on over their heads!!
