NEW YORK — The apparent suspension of Jeanine Pirro is squeezing Fox News Channel in two directions.
A prominent Muslim-American civil rights organization is calling for advertisers to boycott Fox News, while another group is petitioning to have the weekend host reinstated.
Pirro wasn’t on the air Saturday, a week after Fox publicly condemned her for comments questioning U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar’s loyalty because she wears a Muslim head covering. Fox hasn’t explained the former New York-area district attorney’s absence, declining to comment on “internal scheduling matters.”
The network’s schedule for the upcoming weekend lists another program in Pirro’s time slot.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations, the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights organization, this week said that advertisers should boycott Fox News until Pirro and prime-time host Tucker Carlson were fired. Carlson has been fighting back since being criticized last week for comments made on a radio show a decade ago and unearthed last week.
Meanwhile, the lobbying group Act for America urged its members write to Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott to complain about Pirro’s absence. In its online message, Act for America said that instead of rewarding its anchor for opening a much-needed debate, “Fox News caved to pressure from the radical left.”
“Jeanine Pirro did nothing wrong,” the group’s leader, Brigitte Gabriel, said via tweet. “People should be outraged.”

FNC management are on the downhill slide by folding to CAIR.
Just CANCEL YOUR CABLE SUBSCRIPTIONS AND HELP STOP THE “STUPID!”
I have officially suspended Fox News.
It’s time for Fox News to choose sides.
Idiots.
Did they even mention that President Trump has also tweeted multiple times about it?
Which group to listen to, the group that NEVER watches you anyway, or the other one?
Stupid.
OANN would be REALLY WISE to hire Jeanine Pirro. Their ratings would skyrocket.
Agreed, and fast.
They already have... the wrong one.
I think they have chose sides and we’re not on it ! Rupert Murdoch Sons James and Lachlan are far more liberal than he is. Fox News is what it is because of Rodger Ailes but he’s passed away and now that network is going back towards liberalism.
Lets face it Fox News has been trending Left, trying to cater to Democrats, for quite awhile now. They have gone overboard with too many Liberals and now have hired Donna Brazille. Lord who needs her for anything.
The Murdoch spawn are Left and Globalist and are tearing down everything Roger Ailes built. We need more Conservative and I mean real Conservative voices not more Liberals.
If I want to watch idiot Liberals I watch CNN or MSNBC and the MSM for all that.
So I canceled cable over a year ago. In addition to saving almost $2000 a year on my bill and I can go to YouTube if I want Fox or a anything else. I subscribe to OAN if I need fair and balanced news.
So Fox News can go down the rabbit hole for all I care.
Chris Wallace’s Muslim “handler” started and promoted this whole anti-Pirro JIHAD because Pirro dared to simply ask an honest question about Islam.
I suspended Fox 5 years ago when I cut the cable.
Huh?
When will CAIR be designated as a front for bad actors?
Too late. They keep the fag (Shep) and fired a patriotic lawyer (Pirro). Fox can go F themselves.
They hired Donna Brazille and suspended the Judge. Folks you don’t have to hit me in the face with a wet mop covered in Shitz. I got Roku, OANN, and goobye dish. They all can Foxtrot Oscar.
They did and it ain’t our side.
