Fox News has dismissed contributor Kevin Jackson as a result of derogatory comments about women accusing Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault.
In a series of tweets on Thursday – as Kavanaugh's first accuser, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, testified before a US Senate committee – Jackson criticized Ford and the other women who came forward to accuse Kavanaugh of inappropriate sexual behavior.
"In hell with the idea that women must be believed, no matter what", Jackson wrote in a tweet. "Skanks are what these three women are, and we all know more." (After a Twitter user reprimanded him for his harsh words, he replied"It's my attitude towards the liars of all genders.")
Fox News broke his relationship with Jackson several hours later, calling his remarks "reprehensible."
"His comments on today's hearings were reprehensible and do not reflect the Fox News values," the network said in a statement.
Jackson's tweets have not yet been removed from his Twitter account.
