The Hill fired its progressive online show host after she appeared to roll her eyes while interviewing the sister of an Israeli woman kidnapped and held hostage by Hamas.
“It finally happened. The Hill has fired me,” Briahna Joy Gray said on X Thursday, posted with an image of her notice of termination from the outlet.
She said, “There should be no doubt that @RisingHill has a clear pattern of suppressing speech — particularly when it’s critical of the state of Israel.”
