Fox News hasn’t done itself too many favors in the past by way of its right-leaning pundits and viewpoints over the years, but the network just made a bold hiring move. Former DNC chair Donna Brazile was recently hired as an on-air contributor and fans of the news network are upset while also wondering what Jeanine Pirro’s suspension is still ongoing.

The Hill reports:

“Brazile, a veteran Democratic strategist, will offer political analysis across both [Fox News] and FOX Business Network’s daytime and primetime programming,” Fox said in a statement.

Fox added that Brazile would make her first appearance on “The Daily Briefing with Dana Perino” at 2 p.m. EDT on Monday.
