Fox News on Wednesday announced that it hired conservative pundit Tomi Lahren —  who left Glenn Beck’s The Blaze after she expressed support for abortion rights — as a contributor.

“Lahren will have a signature role on an FNC digital product currently in development and will also offer political commentary to the network’s opinion programming, primarily Hannity,” Fox News said in a statement. “She will make her debut as a contributor on tonight’s edition of Hannity at 10PM/ET.”

Lahren in May settled a lawsuit against The Blaze in which she alleged she was wrongly terminated for expressing her pro-choice opinions.

“You know what, I’m for limited government, so stay out of my guns, and you can stay out of my body as well,” Lahren said in March.

The Blaze denied that it fired Lahren, who did not host her show after expressing that stance, though Lahren alleged the opposite.

  1. Wow. Judging from her physiognomy and coloring, If that’s not Fox News typecasting, nothing is.

  2. Just another Plasic Barbie for America’s TASS!

  3. Let’s see, blonde woman: check, conservative: check, over-inflated sense of privilege: check, clueless: check

    Seems like a perfect fit for them.

  4. Of fucking course they did. Blond? Check. Attractive when her face isn’t contorted by hate? Check. Conforms to Fox body norms? Check. Spews insane right wing insults and slanders at others? Check. Easily offended snowflake? Check.

  5. Oh, good, I can continue to ignore her blathering. I wish the media would do the same.
