Fox News Liberal Analyst Finds Out He's Fired From Google Alert

Since the firing of Fox News analyst Lamont Hill last week, there has been speculation as to the reason for his termination, including some from Hill himself.

During an interview with Steve Malzberg,a conservative radio host, Hill revealed not only that he had no information on why he'd been fired, but that he'd learned of the news from a Google alert. MALZBERG: First of all, you told me you found out when you got a Google alert, so I mean, did anybody eventually call you from Fox and tell you that you were fired? HILL: Yeah I eventually - I got a Google alert at 11 o'clock [a.m.] that it had been announced that I'd been fired. After that, I guess someone followed up later in the day, you know because I was sort of trying to figure out what was going on. ... I found out that it was true but other than that I don't have any other information. ... I haven't had any thorough conversation with anyone. News Corp CEO Rupert Murdoch announced the news during a press conference after being asked about Hill's reputation for defending "cop killers" and "racists."
