Fox News Hires Allen West For His Valuable Point Of ViewFox News announced on Thursday that it had hired former Rep. Allen West (R-FL) as a contributor to the conservative network."Representative West's congressional and military experience along with his fearless approach to voicing key issues will provide a valuable point of view to the FOX News lineup," Fox News Vice President Bill Shine said in a statement obtained by The Washington Post.Earlier this year, the tea party star began hosting a show with the conservative online network Pajamas Media after his 2012 loss to Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL).West is expected to fill an ideological hole at Fox News that was left after the network severed ties with former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin earlier this year.They sure do love a good criminal over at FOX News.Before West was a Teabagger Congressman he was a war criminal.West has bragged about torturing an Iraqi policeman and his supporters call him a hero, but military prosecutors said his actions amounted to torture and violated articles 128 and 134 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
