Fox News Regular Resigns Over Obscene Immigration Coverage

If you were a regular contributor to Fox News and you heard the following, what would you do...

Ann Coulter claimed children seen crying in videos at detention centers were merely “child actors” who were given scripts. Hannity said they were part of a “rolling invasion.” Another Fox contributor said the children were better off alone in the centers’ cages than with their parents. Laura Ingraham downplayed the detention center cages as “summer camps” or “boarding schools.”

Bruce Turkel, a regular contributor, resigned. In a letter to the network he wrote...

“Accepting that this misguided policy is wrong doesn’t depend on which side of the political aisle you’re on. It doesn’t matter if you support immigration and immigrants or if you don’t,” Turkel wrote. “Separating innocent children from their parents and jailing them is just plain wrong.”

Yup. This will cost him bucks. He made lots of dough on personal appearances because of his contributions to Fox News. But at least he still has his soul.
