FOX News has a history of Hosts going on vacation amid something controversial they have said while on air. Why am I not surprised in this instance in particular?
FOX insists the vacation has been in the works for some time. Yeah right, and Elephants fly!

They pressure advertisers to drop support of hate speech. Every like sends the advertiser a ding that people are associating their company with bigotry, and to do something about that.
