With the Kavanaugh case raging on that has already created a schism in this country, many people from all classes of society have taken sides on this draconian matter. The internet is spilling with people’s opinions on this issue, but some took it too far such as calling the three women “lying skanks”.
What Happened?
Kevin Jackson a Fox 5 news contributor, was terminated on Thursday, September 28, 2018, after going on a tirade towards women who accused Kavanaugh of sexual assault.
Jackson wrote,
“Feminists are their own worst enemies, and enemy of women, Also, they want men to NEVER be believed. I’m not succumbing,” he tweeted. “TO HELL with the notion that women must be believed no matter what. Lying skanks is what these 3 women are, and we ALL know more.”
Fox 5 shortly came out with a response to that tweet.
“Kevin Jackson has been terminated as a contributor. His comments on today’s hearings were reprehensible and do not reflect the values of Fox News,” a spokeswoman said in a statement.
The three women his remarks were for are Christine Blasey Ford, Deborah Ramirez, and Julie Swetnick, the three chief accusers that are at the epicenter of the Senate Judiciary Hearing.
Even after Jackson’s termination, his rantings did not stop but rather intensified.

Who is Kevin Jackson?
Kevin Jackson has been a Fox 5 news contributor for several years, as well as a conservative radio host on his own radio show KJRadio, and the author of “Race Pimping: The Multi-Trillion Dollar Business of Liberalism.” This is not the first incident on where he attacks women in politics, as he has previously attacked Sen. Elizabeth Warren after she claimed President Donald Trump won the presidential election because of “an ugly stew of racism.”
Jackson responded with, “Leave it to a woman who faked herself as being an American Indian to tell Donald Trump about racism,” he said on the show “Outnumbered” in April.
Who is Brett Kavanaugh?
Brett Kavanaugh is a graduate from the Yale University of Law who became nominated by former President Bush to be in the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit on July 2003. He was sworn in in 2006. Being in the position as a Judge, he was then known for taking part in many controversial issues such as abortion, affordable care act, and environmental care etc. He upheld this position till 2018 when President Trump interviewed him for the replacement for Justice Anthony Kennedy in the Supreme Court. It was this that led to the uprise in the Democratic party and the people. The accusations followed when The Senate Judiciary Committee scheduled three or four days of public hearings on Kavanaugh’s nomination. On September 16, 2018, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, a professor at Palo Alto University, claimed Kavanaugh had sexually assaulted her when she was 15 at a party.
