If you’re familiar with The Internets, you undoubtedly caught this video of Montel Williams smacking Fox News Sunday around over their asinine coverage of Heath Ledger (whose death is undoubtedly a tragedy and whose family my heart goes out to) over the more than two dozen Americans who have died in Iraq since the new year:
Well here’s the followup. Montel’s been booted from FOX.
Fate of “The Montel Williams Show” was sealed when key Fox-owned stations opted not to renew it for the 2008-09 season. But a number of other stations had cleared the show for next season, prompting CBS to offer the “Best of” package. The rerun package is sold on an all-cash basis, which is a boon to stations that had been handing over 3½ minutes of barter ad time per seg to CBS for the firstrun episodes.
Coincidence? Please.

Montel is too good for Fox.

Montel, much like his TV show, missed the mark. Fox and Friends is a morning magazine show, just like Good Morning America or the Today show. They do talk about the War, and cut away to do serious news…but that’s not the shows format. Fox and Friends does a variety of topics each day, just like all the other magazine shows. Montel’s poor choice of such a show as the venue for his proselytizing was strange.

I love Montel. He speaks the truth and is not afraid to go against the status quo.
