The Game, Snoop Dogg, T.I. want Fox’s Laura Ingraham fired for segment deriding Nipsey Hussle
Ben Kaye, Consequence of Sound 1 hour 47 minutes ago
Nipsey Hussle and Fox News' Laura Ingraham Laughing segment Game Snoop Dogg TI fireNever ones to pass up an opportunity to stoke furor for the sake of stoking furor, Fox News has once again drawn the ire of the hip-hop community. This time, frequent incendiary Laura Ingraham decided the death of rapper and community activist Nipsey Hussle was funny, and now a number of prominent people are calling for her to be fired.
On Saturday, the Fox host used a segment of her The Ingraham Angle to disparage the late MC less than 24 hours after the memorial procession . With an offensively unsubtle air of disrespect, she talked of the “thousands” who lined the streets to say goodbye to Nipsey. Keeping the sardonic tone, she said, “Now, this dear artist recently released a song called “FDT” — eff Donald Trump.”
Two things: One, that track’s from 2016. It was a protest song released while the Donald was still just threatening to become the most unqualified president in history, not actually being it. Second, it’s not Nipsey Hussle’s song, it’s YG ’s. In fact, the clip Ingraham proceeded to play on the show didn’t feature Nipsey at all, either on vocals or on screen.
The segment rolled on with more misinformation and actual laughter from both Ingraham and contributor Raymond Arroyo about a rising entrepreneur, loving father, and a vital member of the South Los Angeles community. The outrage was almost immediate, with The Game leading the charge in a call for Fox to fire Ingraham.
Sharing a clip of Ingraham’s remarks, The Game wrote, “@foxnews fires this disrespectful cunt by tomorrow, Monday morning or you will lose millions of viewers one person at a time until it drastically effects your ratings, views etc… if our demographic doesn’t effect that we will STOP support of ALL SPONSORS immediately.” He added,
“This is not a game & my brothers untimely demise has noticeably shifted the world & brought people from all ethnicity’s together in mourning. There is a power in that, that will be used & action will be taken from now going forward. We will not be accepting any apology from her… we want her fired, PERIOD !!!!! #TheMarathonContinues

As of Monday, Ingraham still has a show and has yet to acknowledge the backlash against her, but others have shared their voices. Snoop Dogg commented on The Game’s initial post with a simple, “I’m in.” T.I. shared the video on his own Instagram, calling Ingraham and Arroyo “vile despicable, poor excuses for people.” He continued, “Neither of you WILL EVER know or experience the level of love, appreciation and respect that Nip has… EVEN IN DEATH!!! So let that sizzle in ya lil hateful, demonic spirits.”
R&B singer Tank linked to a petition calling for Ingraham to be fired; as of this writing, over 36,000 people have signed on. “Disrespecting the deceased is not news!” he wrote. “It’s just disrespect!”
This iframe is not allowed This iframe is not allowedIngraham has gained a reputation for saying really stupid, offensive things about minorities and tragic situations. She called LeBron James “ignorant” for expressing his opinions on Trump and told him to “shut up and dribble.” She said detention centers holding immigrant children were “essentially summer camps.” Her taunting of Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg actually led to some repercussions when the young man retaliated by getting a number of sponsors to cut ties with her show. We’ll see if her vitriol against a beloved artist and community leader brings her any more shame.
Nipsey Hussle was shot and killed on March 31st, reportedly while getting clothes from his own Marathon store to give a friend who’d recently gotten out of jail . (The man was also shot and is currently facing charges of parole violation for being with Nip that day.) A man named Eric Holder has been charged with the crime and pled not guilty after retaining for O.J. Simpson prosecutor Christopher Darden. Former president Barack Obama, Kendrick Lamar, JAY-Z, and others spoke Thursday at Nipsey’s memorial service at Los Angeles’ Staples Center. A day later, the LA city council unanimously voted to rename the intersection of Crenshaw and West Slauson Avenue, feet from where Nipsey was murdered, Ermias “Nipsey Hussle” Asghedom Square.

Ignorant, nasty, rotten bitch.
I can think of a lot of democrat ho's who fit that description.
I thought it was funny.
I'm sure you did. There is a long history in America of those who ridicule and laugh at minorities in an effort to inflate their own self importance. Laura certainly won't be the last as long as there is a market for bigoted bullies who can only punch down.
So the death of this man is funny?
Actually, had any of you seen the show, would know that Ms Ingraham took issue with Nipsy dipsy's anti-Trump song. I think we are all equal to be criticized for our actions. Nobody is sacred because of their race.
Don't hold your breath waiting for her to be fired.
What happened to reporting the news fairly, respectfully, and without bias?
Laura Ingraham is a talk show host, not a newscaster.
She is just like Rachel Maddow.
Is that supposed to excuse her biased and disrespectful behavior?
No.
Any reason you would think it would?
That's a lie Vic. Why do you promote a lie?

Race has nothing to do with it.
Don't know, you'll have to ask Jeff Zucker or Jeff Bezos
Actually, it's the truth. From your own post:
"Keeping the sardonic tone, she said, “Now, this dear artist recently released a song called “FDT” — eff Donald Trump.”
THAT WAS HER ISSUE! Whether or not the song was from 2016 or it was actually fuckin YG's. In her mind that was the issue.
Stop lying.
'Laura Ingraham is a talk show host, not a newscaster.'
I don't recall anyone saying the bigoted bitch Ingraham was anything other than a lying shrew harpy for Fux 'news'
It is what Ingraham believed. You can't seem to get that concept through your head.
No worries, the truth stings a bit, but it's not fatal
What truth?
Stop lying Vic. Move along now, move along.
Sorry, It's that little thing called "Freedom of Speech"
Something in my post I can explain for you?

Are you suggesting that those people or media outlets that do not agree with Fox News are biased?
I am not suggesting - I'm saying that the vast majority of the main stream media is biased. And you say they are not? We have you on record then.
BTW, what happened to all those reliable sources that said Trump colluded?

I doubt Fox will be losing millions of viewers. Fox viewers and Nipsy dipsy fans don't exactly share the same news sources. I'm not sure the dipsy fans watch news, do they?
Yep, here again is the old tried and sometimes true Democrat way...trying to silence anyone they don't agree with. Attempt to censor them or get them fired. Laura was simply telling the truth, some disagree. Tough!
We should always fire everyone who doesn't agree with liberals. Then we can get on to firing liberals who aren't liberal enough.
Only then can we have purity......

One of the interesting things about the French Revolution is seeing that play out with a guillotine involved.
Yesterday's left wing heroes became today's sacrifice to Madame Guillotine.
Who is trying to silence this cunt?

Telling the truth about what?
Don't worry about Ingraham. The FOX bots need their 'fantasy flower girl.' Besides, her leg shots are better than Hannity's and Carlson's combined.
Nipsey was black and had tattoos. The old FOX farts need something to...………….whatever it is they do.
This bitch reminds me of Man Coulter in many ways. Has a mannish voice, has a mannish face, probably got a dick and balls too.
The kind of stupid comment we have come to except.
She is a single parent of three children: a girl from Guatemala whom she adopted in 2008; a boy from Russia whom she adopted at 13 months in 2009; and another boy she adopted in 2011.
