I don't know if anyone has noticed, but Michelle Malkin no longer appears on Foxnews. I've also noticed that the emails I get from her no longer have links to any videos of her appearing anywhere on TV.
Has something happened to drive her off the air, sort to speak? I've noticed that this all began last year around the October time frame.
I'm concerned because I loved watching her and now, poof, she's gone.
I'll sit back and see what you all have to say. Thanks.
Didn’t she sell twitchy a few months ago for a bucket of cash?
Maybe she’s just taking time out to think of her next venture.
I mean fight.....in general.....
Her niece was kidnapped.
I watch a lot less of FOX now and I have been giving One America News Network (OAN) a longer look. So far, so good.
I just sent an email. Let’s see what happens!
I’d heard about One America News, but not watched. I’ll have to check it out again.
She’s doing an event with Glenn Beck about Common Core this month. That’s really been her focus lately.
good. let us know
I, too, noticed her scarce appearances, a while back. I was on her email updates list, and stopped receiving those, too. That was also around the October timeframe.
Hope all is well with Michelle. She is a superb analyst of all things lib.
Teamed up with Beck
It started years ago when she got into a fight with Geraldo Rivera on Bill O'Reilly's show.
She used to be a Friday substitute for O'Reilly until the first immigration debate, when on O'Reilly's show Rivera said that he would spit on Malkin if he saw her.
Malkin demanded that O'Reilly apologize and chastize Rivera, but O'Reilly refused to do so, so Malkin quit his show. Rivera himself later apologized for his words, bbut not his feelings.
It all went down from there.

*******************************************************************
I’ve starting watching OANN occasionally since I first noticed it on Verizon FiOS several weeks ago. It has some maturing to do, but has considerable promise. I do think that Fox News has been gradually trending somewhat left, or at least RINO, which is very unfortunate (not least for Fox News Channel itself).
As for Michelle Malkin, she is wonderful and also added to whatever show she appeared on. She is VERY perceptive and IMHO much smarter than some of her “hosts”—which may be one reason for her appearing less than she has in the past.
I think she has been busy writing a new book (that memory may be somewhat dated by now) and that may be a more plausible reason why we haven’t been seeing as much of her.
I miss her appearances; the shows she had been a guest on are poorer for her absence.
The National Inquirer features her in about every issue. See post below.
Thanks, PJ.
Seem to remember reading on her site or ?elsewhere? she and Fox had a ‘falling out’ Just in the past few weeks visited her site to check the status of her missing cousin. Her cousin disappeared without a trace several years ago (7?) Unfortunately, nothing in the way of clues. Still remember Michelle and her pit bull attitude devouring Chrissie slobbering Matthews and Zell Miller right behind her,defending her honor...not that she needed any help.
No, that was HotAir who are a bunch of RINOS.
She and her husband started and sold Hot Air to Salem Communications (owns TownHall) in 2010. Then they started Twitchy and sold it last December, also to Salem Communications . Maybe they’re just taking some time off to enjoy life and get batteries recharged.
I think you have a point, FOX has been unusually indifferent with the whole amnesty aliens swarming the border thing. What’s going on with that? No Joe Arpiao commentary or anything. What’s going on, have they turned?
Have never understood Ailes’ bizarre attachment to the Burger King.
I noticed the big change in FoxNews almost immediately after the 2010 midterm elections. Before then, they were covering live tea-party events, they had more grassroots-oriented issues, they even had Greta down on the border discussing the invasion of illegals.
But by the beginning of 2011, it seemed like the GOP-establishment types totally took over... Karl Rove became omnipresent, the tea-party was dropped like a hot rock, Palin suddenly started getting really shabby treatment by all the talking-heads, and the whole border/amnesty issue disappeared entirely. FoxNews became totally “beltway” centric. I guessed it was all a sort of a deliberate paving-the-way for a Romney run.
All this frankly drove away this long-time viewer. FoxNews used to practically be the ‘default’ position on my tv-set, going back to its inception. Nowadays, I hardly ever watch the channel. Maybe 30-minutes per month, at most.
