Last week, I saw bad news on several blogs about the Fox News Watch host, Eric Burns:
Last week, the show’s moderator, Eric Burns, was told he would be terminated within the next two months. In an interview, he said he was startled by his sudden and unexplained dismissal, although last year his employment status was reduced from staff to contributor.
In another shift, Neal Gabler, a media writer and historian who was a weekly panelist on “Fox News Watch” until last November, said that Fox had offered to renew his agreement but had never given him a new contract, leaving him in limbo. Ms. Klinghoffer disputed Mr. Gabler’s account and said the two parties could not come to terms.
For five years, Mr. Gabler was considered by some to be the most critical voice of Fox News, once telling his fellow panelists that “it’s undeniable that this is a Republican-oriented network, and designed for Republicans who watch it.”
READ THE REST
I've even read Mr. Burn's biography from his NBC days! Good luck to Burns and Gabler in the future.
