They are looking for another left winger to fill the spot?

They'll have temp fill ins until Nov 2022. After that Liz Cheney will be out of a job and they will offer it to her.

Good riddance, Juan! I’d been muting him whenever it was his turn to opine anyway. He was a poor choice from the start and I doubt anyone will want to watch him on any other program either.

Let’s remember how Juan got the job to begin with. He was fired from left-wing tax-supported NPR for saying something halfway conservative (i think it had to do with black gun ownership) and Fox swooped in and signed him to give their newsroom some street cred.

His career then became as liberal punching bag to conservative opinionaters, much in the same way CNN used to use Robert Novak. His job was to say something absurd so the conservatives could gang up on him and beat him to a figurative pulp.

It’s Conflict 101, straight from the old “Crossfire” show where you get at least two people who are set up by the producers to argue opposite positions for the ratings. You wonder after awhile if they really mean half the crap they say.

Terry Bradshaw will be his replacement?

Sure, so Fox will have a place ready for Aaron Rodgers when he retires.

Question: Other than being black and Democratic, what does Juan Williams have in common with Susan Rice?
Answer: Both have sons in their early 20’s who call themselves conservatives.

John David Rice Cameron supported Trump and was beaten up at his college for expressing support for Brett Kavanaugh.
Raffi Williams gets along with his Dad, but considers his own views as far more conservative.

They need a lib for “balance,” but if they want a new black host, they should hire Candace Owens.

He’d have to get a sex change to get a full-time big on The View but he might consider it.

Harold Ford, Jr. although I don’t think he’ll push the Dems talking point memos as well as Juan. He is at least reasonable.

“You wonder after awhile if they really mean half the crap they say.”

Precisely that!
He is Paid good money to represent the opposing viewpoint on that show. Otherwise it’s a conservative echo chamber full of confirmation bias. It would be a really boring show if all we had was a bunch of people agreeing with each other and nobody to push back against. Liberal Punching bag indeed. He was there for gutfeld and waters to beat up every show. I can’t remember a single time watching that show where I agreed with any of his points of view. But I liked him because he was able to do that job of being the contrarian and still maintain a good relationship with his peers.

He did a good job and I hope he finds a good path, long life and many happy days in the future.

Harold Ford Jr. is far from reasonable. He is from a corrupt political family in Memphis and couldn’t be farther left. He should be in prison instead of television.
