And Fox thought it was a good idea in the first place and it took a Dem to tell them otherwise, WTF??? -'Fox Soul' Cancels Louis Farrakhan July 4th Speech The Fox “Soul” television network announced Monday that it had canceled a July 4th program that was to have featured a speech from Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, a notorious antisemite, racist, and homophobe. As Breitbart News reported Sunday: The main FOX network launched Fox Soul in January in an effort to reach African American audiences — and to reach beyond the conservative branding of Fox News. Fox Soul offers four hours of streaming programing daily. In a statement Monday, Fox Soul announced that it would replace the Farrakhan program with an “inspirational” program focusing on “the greatest black leaders and thinkers about racial relations and civil rights in America.” Former New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D), founder of Americans Against Antisemitism, congratulated Fox for its reversal, after he had urged the network to cancel the program: Great news! Thanks to @FOXTV for doing the right thing & correcting an obvious grave error. The message is clear: vile haters like @LouisFarrakhan should never be give a large and mainstream platform to expand the reach of their poisonous diatribes! Other networks take note! The original Fox Soul announcement of the Farrakhan program linked to the Nation of Islam website, which features, among other things, antisemitic literature. https://www.breitbart.com/the-media/2020/06/29/fox-soul-cancels-louis-farrakhan-july-4th-speech/
