Tomi Lahren Big Mouth Tomi Lahren Funny
About
Tomi Lahren is an American television and online conservative political commentator known for her talk show Tomi on The Blaze.[1] In 2016, she gained national attention for her conservative commentary on the 2016 United States presidential election, most notably through the videos of her "Final Thoughts" segment which spread widely on social media.
History
Lahren first hosted her own show, On Point With Tomi Lahren, on One America News Network beginning in August 2014. There, she began drawing attention following her commentary on the Chattanooga shootings[2] and commentary in which she countered the idea that Republicans are old rich and white by pointing to prominent Democrats, saying, ''Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Warren, Joe Biden. Old, rich, white, and if the pantsuit fits … male too?''
In August 2015, she did her final show with One America News Network and in November of that year began her show with The Blaze. Here, she introduced her "Final Thoughts" segment, which became particularly popular on social media. One of her first segments to draw national attention was her "Final Thoughts" on the Colin Kaepernick National Anthem Controversy, aired in August 2016 (shown below).
On November 30th, 2016, Lahren appeared on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah for a 26-minute interview segment (shown below).
While Noah attempted to listen and reason with her, critics noticed that Lahren dominated the segment, reiterating her opinions without regard for Noah's objections.[3] This led to a divided reaction among liberals. Some praised Noah for his candor in the face of Lahren's obstinance,[4] while others criticized him for allowing Lahren's viewpoints to reach their widest audience yet.[5]
The Blaze Suspension and Termination
On her March 17th, 2017 appearance on The View, Lahren claimed that she was pro-choice (shown below).
In the appearance, Lahren says:
"I am a constitutional, y'know, someone that loves the Constitution. I'm someone that's for limited government. So I can't sit here and be a hypocrite and say I'm for limited government but I think the government should decide what women do with their bodies. I can sit here and say that, as a Republican and I can say, you know what, I'm for limited government, so stay out of my guns, and you can stay out of my body as well."
Lahren's comments clashed with earlier statements she made on her Blaze series. "The pro-choicers are supposed to be about rare and safe abortions. That's how they avoid sounding like straight-up baby killers," said Lahren. ""Then we have Lena freakin' Dunham out there wishing she could have murdered a fetus."[15]
On March 18th, 2017, Lahren tweeted a defense, and one day later, Glenn Beck, owner of The Blaze and Lahren's employer, responded (shown below).
Beck continued to call her "intellectual honesty" into question on the March 20th installment of his radio show. "If you're pro-choice, you can have a job at TheBlaze," said Beck. "I don't hire people who are sycophants or don't have my opinion."[16] Later that day, Beck suspended Lahren for one week.[17] Lahren responded to the suspension on Twitter, receiving over 9,000 retweets.
On March 26th, 2017, The New York Post reported that The Blaze had permanently banned Lahren from their network.[18]
