Justin Bieber wants the news anchor to be fired because of Nipsey Hussle's "disrespectful" comments

Justin Bieber hit Fox News host Laura Ingraham, accusing him of "disrespecting" the murder of rapper Nipsey Hussle.

Biebs called for the news anchor's dismissal after seeming to laugh by presenting a segment on the rapper.

Hussle, 33, was shot in front of his Marathon Clothing store in March and Ingraham described it sarcastically as "that dear artist".

Aged 55, Fox is one of Fox News' top presenters and has her own conservative talk show, The Ingraham Angle.

She was talking about Hussle's success in 2016 with fellow rapper YG, FDT, which includes the chorus "f *** Donald Trump".

Addressing his 109 million Instagram followers, Justin described Ingraham's behavior as "absolutely disgusting".

He wrote: "Laura Ingraham has absolutely disgusted what you have done on national television.How dare you laugh at a dead person?

"It does not matter who it is, but disrespect to someone who was a pillar of the community and did well by the people?"

"Have not you thought about the family that just lost a loved one and now must see you making fun of him on national television? It's absurd and you should be fired. # Repost # spreadawareness. "

Bieber was not the only celebrity to have criticized Ingraham for the Hussle segment. The rappers The Game and Snoop Dogg were among those calling for a boycott of the television network.

Eric R Holder Jr was accused of killing Hussle in front of a clothing store in Los Angeles on March 31 and pleaded not guilty.
