He wasn't "fired". Fox Business simply cut all of their non-business programming in an effort to try to do something different to get their ratings up. He is still going to have regular appearances on various Fox News and Fox Business shows, he just doesn't have his own show anymore.

I never EVER watch that show, but for some odd reason I was at my parents' house and saw it on there. I watched that exact segment (in the youtube link).
I was shocked something so correct could possibly be aired. It smelled like a swan song from someone who already knew they were on the way out, and decided to "call it like it is"... which does not play into the required red-vs-blue sports-ificiation of politics.
So, overall I'm not shocked to hear he's been canned or shoved to the side.

Fox business seems libertarian, with all the Stossel and Judge.
But yeah that segment had no bearing on him being "fired." Which he wasn't his show was canx but he'll continue to appear on other fox programs like he always has.

That doesn't invalidate what I was saying... my guess is he seemed to have an inkling he'd lose his platform (this was a couple weeks ago I think) and decided to say what's on his mind.

I would think not since Fox aired the damn thing, even going so far as to put up graphics and such for it.

It's more sophistry than anything. The whole Ron Paul-Dems and Republicans are the same party stuff strikes me as excuse making by people who largely vote Republican and are self aware enough to feel bad about it -- if not man enough to say it out loud.

I thought Arrested Development was awful.
I don't blame the viewers for Community, I don't even watch it when it is normally on because Big Bang Theory is better. This is 100% the networks brain dead fault. You don't put the second best show on TV up against the best show on TV and then act surprised when it doesn't do as well. ESPECIALLY when those two shows target a similar audience.

I don't think so. I'm probably more liberal than conservative, but both parties make me sick, and looking back, it's actually been going on for decades. This game of playing one side against the other while we all get screwed. It's just getting more blatant these days, as I think they realize the majority don't pay attention beyond the D and R tags. Political football teams.

I am not saying both parties don't suck, but they suck in a lot of different ways too. People have said American political is played between the forty yard lines forever, and that is largely true. Still there are very distinct differences between the two and Judge Napolitano is outright false in some of the claims he is making - just in order to overstate his case.

I think you're awful.
Espiritu is correct. S1 and S2 are both brilliant, S3 is definitely weak but it did have several gems. You can hardly blame them though considering that it was only have a season in the face of impending cancellation.
It is a testament to the show and it's fans that it is getting ten more fresh episodes and a movie!
Shows like AD and Community are just too highbrow for most people. They'd rather just watch William Hung bleat in front of Simon and Randy.
