“So lemme tell you what’s going to happen here…. @foxnews fires this disrespectful c*nt by tomorrow,” rapper The Game wrote in a social media post. “We are NO LONGER laying quiet while you continuously disrespect our brother, culture African Americans as a whole. I will use my platform & call on my peers to do the same.”
California rapper Snoop Dogg signed onto The Game’s effort to have Ingraham fired, replying to the post by saying, “I’m in.”
