Fox News on Thursday issued an apology to its viewers after a guest said on air that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was like "herpes."

Turning Points USA Director of Spanish Engagement Anna Paulina made the comments as a panel discussed the scandal surrounding the former Democratic presidential candidate's use of a private email server.

During the segment, Fox News host Rick Leventhal mentioned that he was "amazed" that Clinton is still making headlines.

"She won't go away, she's like herpes," Paulina said.

I thought Anna was right, Clinton will not go away......why was she taken off the show?.........why did she have to apologize for that? With all the left says on TV and in print, this was tame.

My apology (to keep my gig) would be: I am truly sorry some were offended by my statement.

Distasteful, but far worse is said about Trump daily, and applauded.

Maybe, but libs have somehow the monopoly in throwing derogatory terms to their opposition. Did Fox ever appologize for the Tbagging rhetoric of the people they invite?=

I watched this live yesterday, and the whole family broke out in laughter when she said it.

I commented that she'll never be back on Fox, and sure enough, she didn't even finish out the segment.
