Ha ha female right wing WACKO escorted out of FOX er uh FAUX NEWS
On Wednesday, Gawker reported that convicted stalker and Red Eye regular Rachel Marsden was "escorted" out of the FOX News building by security guards. Marsden writes this on her blog: "... I will no longer be appearing on the show, as I have been told that it is heading in a 'different direction' from its inception, and I am the 'first casualty'. As a political and news commentator, being a panelist on what had become a totally off-the-wall-and-into-orbit show was an interesting experience. It was also the first time that I was ever considered the 'sane one' on any program, so I am grateful for that unique opportunity and wish the boys the very best of luck." Bye, bye, Rachel. You won't be missed!

Fox News Rachel Marsden, Red Eye-Candy, Escorted Out By Security?
May 30, 2007
Gawker.com is reporting that Toronto Sun columnist Rachel Marsden, Red Eyes’ humorless neo-con trouble magnet hired mostly for her great legs, was escorted out by security a few hours ago.
Salon did the digging and unearthed a creepy history. “The 31-year-old columnist is already well known in her native Canada as an oft-accused and once-admitted stalker who made questionable rape charges of her own 10 years ago, in a case that eventually cut short the career of a university president and changed the tenor of harassment cases all over Canada. In 1999, a professor at the same university went to the police with charges Marsden was stalking him, and in 2004 she pleaded guilty to criminally harassing a former Vancouver radio host.”
But the Fox News attitude seemed to be -- but, oh, never mind that. She’s a neo-con! Yaaay! And a hottie, too.
Asked Salon: “What was Fox thinking?”
Should they have thought twice?
This is the second time in the space of week that a Red Eye regular has gone down in Fox flames.

EYE-OPENER

May 31, 2007 -- SECURITY officers hastily escorted "Red Eye" contributor Rachel Marsden out of Fox News Channel's Midtown headquarters yesterday for bizarre and erratic behavior. "She's out of her mind. She was doing crazy stuff," a spy told us. The brown-haired hottie is notorious in Canada, where authorities say she falsely accused a university swim coach of sexual harassment and harassed a Vancouver radio personality. A Fox News rep had no comment.

1. I thought "bizarre and erratic behavior" was required to
work for Faux Snooze ...

2. Wow, she's too insane even for FOX? That's gotta be bad.
Considering some of the frothing batshit-smokers
who are still there....wow.

Nothing left for her to do now, I suppose, but
move to Florida and run for Congress.

Enquiring minds want to know when will O'Liely go down?

5. My guess: She started to make overtures to someone high-up
and they didn't want this whacko making charges and causing a scandal anywhere down the road. Or, maybe she started stalking Roger Ailes (I particularly love the thought of that... LOL!)

Anyway, it sounds like damage control more than anything in light of her "past".

6. Oh, great, not HER again
She almost single-handedly changed the way sexual harassment charges are handled on Canadian universities.

I see the Wiki on her has already been updated with this story:

7. "a totally off-the-wall-and-into-orbit show"
Ha! More like off the wall and in the toilet.

How crazy do you have to be to get kicked out of the FOX studio especially when you're a neo-con? You'd have to be a threat to life and limb.
