Fox News’ host Howard Kurtz on Sunday urged the network to drop contributors if they are considering a run for office.

Fox dropped Dr. Ben Carson as a contributor, which Kurtz said was a good call.

“This was a smart move by Fox because a guy who’s more or less running for president shouldn’t be on a network payroll,” he said. “Which means Fox also faces a decision about former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who is openly weighing a White House bid as well.”
