That was intended to be a racist, incendiary comment and she should have been booted when it happened.
You can call Sean Hannity's wife a baby mama or Bill O'Reilly's wife a baby mama, but you wouldn't because they are white. That was the point she was trying to make and she made it.

I read she's already got a job at NBC'S right wing (Kernan, Kudlow, Gasparino, etc) CNBC. Nobody is the right wing media is ever punished for racism. O/W there'd be no Hannity, O'Reilly, Limbaugh, Ingraham. Spewing racism gaurantees a devoted following in the right wing hate crowd.

No. 3 TVGal says:

Oh, please… Do we really believe that Fox is just now "firing" Herzberg over this incident back in June? She got a better offer and gave notice, giving the powers-that-be at Fox the perfect opportunity to place blame and chuck her under the bus and wipe their hands of everything.

Did anyone at Jossip check this story out? It's 100% untrue. Herzberg was a freelance Senior Producer. Senior Producers don't write banners. Writers do. Also, Senior Producers don't call up banners, that's done by a director or a graphics or deco op. And most important, Herzberg left Fox, she was not fired. One phone call by the people at Jossip would have cleared this up. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
