Judith Regan Firing Reportedly Due to Anti-Semitic Remarks

This is somewhat surprising:

The conversation with Mr. Jackson on Friday afternoon was described by sources as heated and confrontational, even for the famously forceful Ms. Regan. Ms. Regan’s alleged comments, which came in the midst of a tense conversation in which she berated Mr. Jackson, were directed at him and Ms. Friedman, who are Jewish, as well as toward other Jews, one of the sources said.

That source would not say specifically what Ms. Regan is alleged to have said, but characterized the comments as offensive and inappropriate, but not a hateful tirade. Still, the source said, it was enough to prompt Mr. Murdoch to dismiss her.

I’m sure her explanation will be a bestseller. Perhaps it will include a forward by Jimmy Carter? Anyway, if Drudge is right we may get an answer in court:

‘They’ve chosen war and they will get exactly that,’ Judith Regan’s newly hired attorney Bert Fields tells the WALL STREET JOURNAL. ‘She won’t take this lying down.’

Will Greta Van Susteren be able to run 150 news alerts per hour on this or will she be muzzled?

    I wonder if Judy took it from Bernard Kerik lying down.
