HatTip Texan59 – Fox has cancelled Freedom Watch with Andrew Napolitano, and Follow The Money with Eric Bolling from its lineup.  

Here is part of their statement:

We look forward to Judge Napolitano, David [Asman] and Eric [Bolling] continuing to make significant contributions to both FOX Business and FOX News. In addition to daily branded segments, each of them will be showcased throughout future programming on both networks.”

Currently one of the leading judicial analysts on television, Judge Napolitano will continue his role on both FOX Business and FOX News, providing key legal insights surrounding the growing intersection between Washington and Wall Street. In addition to co-hosting The Five on FNC, Eric Bolling will also lend his unparalleled expertise on oil and energy stemming from more than 20 years on the trading floor to both networks as a commodities contributor.

Judge Napolitano had a really good show and it’s disappointing to see it cancelled, I wonder where he will show up on other shows as a contributor.   Given the success of the Fox 5pm show “The Five” with Eric Bolling, Greg Gutfeld, Bob Beckel, Dana Perino and Kimberly Guilfoyle, it would appear that Bolling will still retain one primary show.  But taking Judge Napolitano off the air is very disappointing.

Perhaps this is nothing more than just further nudging to the left and reducing some of the more strong conservative opinion in an effort to broaden a base of viewers, who knows.  But I hope that Napolitano is able to frequent more shows on the network.  While I disagree with his Ron Paul advocacy I do enjoy his strict constitutional perspective on daily events and opinion.
