Not today, Satan!
We reported earlier this week that the Fox 'Soul' network was planning to air a "message to America" from Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan’s in a July 4th special.
Farrakhan has a history of racism, antisemitism, and homophobia.
However, after a massive backlash, the network has now announced that they canceled his special and will be airing one hosted by Dr. Sean instead.
The network tweeted, "Programming change: On July 4th, Fox Soul will present a special program hosted by Dr. Sean featuring a compilation of the most powerful speeches from the greatest black leaders and thinkers about racial relations and civil rights in America. This powerful and inspirational program replaces the previously scheduled Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan's 'Message to America.'"

Former New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind, founder of Americans Against Antisemitism, spoke out against the programming when Fox announced Farrakhan as the speaker. Now he is commending Fox for canceling it.
Great news!
Thanks to @FOXTV for doing the right thing & correcting an obvious grave error.
The message is clear: vile haters like @LouisFarrakhan should never be give a large and mainstream platform to expand the reach of their poisonous diatribes!
Other networks take note! https://t.co/ZpfUOLT1EL
