<p>Think Progress <a href="http://thinkprogress.org/2009/10/21/lamont-hill-google-alert/">has the audio and transcript</a> of his interview with radio host <strong>Steve Malzberg</strong> &#8211; and it raises more questions about the reason the rising star at FNC was let go.<span id="more-37738"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;To date, Fox News Channel hasn&#8217;t given me any information as to why,&#8221; said Hill yesterday. He continued:</p>
<blockquote><p>I got a Google alert at 11 o’clock [a.m.] that it had been announced that I’d been fired. After that, I guess someone followed up later in the day, you know because I was sort of trying to figure out what was going on&#8230;I found out that it was true but other than that I don’t have any other information&#8230;I haven’t had any thorough conversation with anyone.</p></blockquote>
<p>Over the weekend, <a href="http://odeo.com/episodes/25106705-Fox-News-Pundit-Talks-About-Van-Jones-Progressives-Why-the-Left-Keeps-getting-Smashed-On"target="_blank">this web radio show</a> from September surfaced as a possible reason for his dismissal. In it, he strongly attacks <strong>Sean Hannity</strong> and <strong>Glenn Beck</strong> &#8211; but notably, does not say anything about <strong>Bill O&#8217;Reilly</strong>, whose show he regularly appeared. Still, the story was odd to begin with, since News Corp. chairman <strong>Rupert Murdoch</strong> essentially broke the news himself, while speaking to stockholders Friday morning.</p>
<p>Newsbusters <a href="http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2009/10/21/former-fnc-lib-white-house-attacks-fox-reek-propaganda"target="_blank">reports on another part</a> of the Malzberg radio interview yesterday, where Hill weighs in on the Fox News vs. White House feud. Hill says &#8220;I would agree&#8221; that MSNBC is more biased to the left than Fox News is biased to the right.</p>
<p>Last week we reached out to both Hill and Fox News for more information on what happened.</p>
