FOX NEWS HOST GETS DEATH THREATS AFTER QUESTIONING TRUMP'S REACTION TO CHARLOTTESVILLE

On Monday, Fox News host Eboni K Williams questioned Trump's reaction to Charlottesville over the weekend.

Normally she gets 10 to 15 of emails from viewers, a few of which quietly disagree with her, but generally emails from viewers are positive.

But after Monday's show she received 150 emails from viewers, most of which were threatening.

“I should meet my maker soon, I shouldn’t be allowed to walk the streets of New York,” she cited as some examples of the type of comments she received. “They heard that I live in Harlem — Harlem needs to watch out.” Her book publisher became so concerned that he asked her to request additional security from Fox News, which she did — Williams is now escorted to and from the building when she arrives to work. Her book, “Pretty Powerful: Appearance, Substance, and Success,” is available next month.

Williams explained that the typical responses she gets from Fox News viewers, while sometimes disagreeing with her views, often praise her ability to formulate her arguments and present them on-air, which is what makes this week’s digression so shocking for her. She chalked up the new level of vitriol directed at her as partly due to President Trump’s “tacit compliance” of violent political rhetoric, which she said was apparent in his Tuesday morning retweet — now deleted — of an image of a train running over someone with the CNN logo edited in over them.

This all agrees with that Nazi/pussygrabbing/"Ivanka has a voluptuous ass"/pro-Saudi/pro-Israel kind of thinking.
