Fox News Producer Calls Michelle Malkin ‘Vile’ For Attacking Colleague Who Condemned Jeanine Pirro
Fox News producer Dan Gallo is bashing frequent network guest Michelle Malkin for attacking a colleague of his for condemning Jeanine Pirro‘s controversial remarks about Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN).
When Pirro recently suggested that Omar’s hijab is evidence that she believes in Sharia law over the Constitution, the Fox host was rebuked on Twitter by Hufsa Kamal, a producer for Special Report with Bret Baier. Kamal, who identified herself as a Muslim, asked Pirro to “stop spreading this false narrative that somehow Muslims hate America or women who wear a hijab aren’t American enough.”
Pirro has been condemned by Fox News at large since then, with critics accusing her of inflaming Islamophobic sentiments. Gallo works for the network as a field producer in Los Angeles, and he applauded Kamal for taking a stand while noting that Pirro has yet to apologize for what she said.
Props to my brave friend & colleague Hufsa Kamal for calling out @JudgeJeanine— who has yet to apologize for her offensive remarks about Muslims. Glad that Fox condemned these comments. https://t.co/nN8GbqYxOA

Kamal has privatized her Twitter account since the Pirro blow-up began, and now she’s being attacked by Malkin.
First, Malkin retweeted smears and groundless accusations against Kamal from @JewishVoice.
Hey @FoxNews @BretBaier
How come you hired a woman who is attacking other @FoxNews employees?
Hufsa, who describes herself as a Muslim & attacked @JudgeJeanine also has some questionable social media posts.
She has RT several jihadi tied individuals.
Care to comment? https://t.co/27IbCOGoBr

Hmmm so she can violate workplace decorum and call out @JudgeJeanine for speaking truth about sharia Law, but she can’t handle being exposed herself? @BretBaier why did you hire Hufsa Kamal? She seems like such a problematic employee. Highly unprofessional tweets.
Concerning. https://t.co/gEal92Pnyw

Also, Malkin went after Kamal personally by attacking her for privatizing her account after Kamal previously criticized Malkin’s recent disparagement of Cindy McCain. This happened after Malkin attacked John McCain during her speech at CPAC.
Now you are trying to hide @hufkat ? Too late. It’s not the only one. pic.twitter.com/gYBN69oiVM

And then she tried to hide it by protecting her tweets when called out, while her colleague spreads false information to double-down on virtue signaling.https://t.co/xy6mtbq1J3

Kamal called Malkin “vile” before her account became private, and it seems Gallo agrees with his colleague.
Just so we’re all clear: A person who regularly appears on Fox News, my employer, is attacking my colleague @hufkat on Twitter after her courageous stand against Islamophobia. @michellemalkin is doubling down on a statement that our employer called offensive. Vile. pic.twitter.com/JUTl8rGgoQ
