We, the undersigned, demand the removal of Juan Williams from your lineup of on-air personalities. He consistently and deliberately misrepresents the truth for partisan purposes. While some of your other Democratic contributors provide views that seek to balance the conservative leanings of your network, Williams simply LIES.

The latest and most serious example is his continued misrepresentation of the President's remarks in his telephone call with the Ukranian President. Knowing that most Americans will not have actually read the transcript of that call, Williams knowingly makes the false claim that Trump "pressured" Zelinisky by threatening to withhold military aid.

Anyone who has read that transcript can immediately see that the ONLY reference to anything "military" (i.e. Javelin missiles) was made by Zelinsky, NOT Trump. And, as the New York Times reported just days after this story broke, the Ukranians have said they didn't even KNOW the aid had been temporarily delayed until a month AFTER the July 25th phone call.

Williams KNOWS all this. Yet, he still lies about it. We understand the difference between News and Commentary. But, in both cases, Fox should be committed to the Truth. Williams is not.

I am currently compiling a dossier of his recent transcripts to send directly to network management. Please email the Fox News viewer relations department today to express that you expect factual accuracy from their commentators. Check your inbox for my draft template you can use to send your message.

Reaching this milestone proves that people are tired of the constant misinformation on air. Post this link to your Facebook page right now and email your representative to let them know where you stand on media accountability.

I have given up watching THE FIVE ever since that lying, nonsensical, idiot became a permanent part of the show. If they need a token liberal to offer dissenting views there are far less incendiary individuals to choose from.

Juan Williams is a misguided tool who lies for a living ( FOX ), and who offers NOTHING to the otherwise interesting "The Five", .....except moronic eye-rolling . What a flaming INGRATE . His BS is rarely correct. He deserves nothing less than dismissal, and FOX which would rather lose share than lose this jerk, is responsible for diluting an otherwise accurate analysis of current events. Wake up, FOX.

He is insensitive, overtalking and refuses to accept truths that are given to him. The next time he is on he tells the lie. I want to be able to watch news wtihout feeling like I have to fast forward it through Juan or stop watching. Give us a place to go where they don't repeat lies over and over like Juan does

This man is dangerous as he spews radical Left propaganda with the blessings of Fox News. He insults and assaults loyal viewers every time he is on air. I am through with Fox unless they give this idiot the boot.
