Fox News Stands Behind Ingraham

Let me start out by saying this, I don't like Fox News host Laura Ingraham. I think she spews hate and is working as best she can to divide this country.  

Now, before you call me a Libtard, let me add that I feel the exact same way about Rachel Maddow at MSNBC. 

Now that we have that out of the way, let me say that I applaud Fox News for standing behind Ingraham when it comes to the "advertiser boycott." 

“We cannot and will not allow voices to be censored by agenda-driven intimidation efforts,” Jack Abernethy, co-president of Fox News, said in a statement to the Los Angeles Times. “We look forward to having Laura Ingraham back hosting her program next Monday when she returns from spring vacation with her children.”…

If everytime someone says something controversial they have to worry that the advertisers will pull out and they will lose their job, then you are basically silencing that person. 

I don't agree one bit with Laura Ingraham's message but I 100% agree with her right to say it. 

No one in TV news should cheering on advertiser boycotts because one day it could be you that is getting boycotted and maybe your company won't stand behind you like Fox News is standing behind Ingraham. 

Just saying...
