Given Dash’s past stirring up ire with her comments criticizing transgender rights, hip hop artists and the ban of immigration of Middle Easterners, most reactions include hilarious memes and gifs to celebrate that she would no longer work at Fox News.
A network spokesperson confirmed Dash’s exit to TheWrap, that Fox News did not renew her contract.
Dash had been a Fox News contributor since 2014. Clicking on her bio page on FoxNews.com brings you to a 404 error page. In 2015, the network suspended Dash for her use of profanity on-air while talking about former President Barack Obama’s speech about terrorism.
