Fired Contributor Rips Fox News For Hypocrisy, Identifies Hosts Who Had Affairs, Hung With Strippers

Fired Contributor Rips Fox News For Hypocrisy, Identifies Hosts Who Had Affairs and Hung With Strippers

Kevin Jackson was swiftly fired as a Fox News contributor last week after he unleashed a torrent of tweets that, amongst other nuttery, referred to Brett Kavanaugh‘s accusers as “Lying skanks.”

The pro-Trump radio host spoke out about his firing on Joe Piscopo‘s radio show Monday morning and ripped Fox News for apparent hypocrisy.

On Piscopo’s show, Jackson eventually turned his ire towards what he cast as hypocrisy at Fox News.

“Ed Henry was hanging out with strippers while he was married,” Jackson said, before falsely claiming Henry, Fox News’ chief national correspondent, has a show on the network.

Jackson continued: “Jesse Watters, who just recently divorced his wife, or is in the process, and he’s hanging out with some young chick that he did.”

“If that’s what Fox decides they want to have on, congratulations to them,” he said.

Henry took time off from the network in 2016 after tabloids reported on an alleged affair with a Las Vegas stripper. Fox News host Jesse Watters, meanwhile, is currently divorcing his wife after an affair.

Jackson also expanded on his attacks on Kavanaugh’s accusers, calling Christine Blasey Ford a “lying piece of crap.” He implored Piscopo’s listeners to look up the definition of “skank.”
