Among the problems I have with all the cable news stations are their
insistence on using talking heads to fill their 24 hour broadcast day,
which would be fine if the talking heads had experience at anything other
than talking (or Tweeting). But they don't, and I hold news organizations
to a higher standard than I hold my social media newsfeed.

If I were to attempt to crawl into the mind of Ms Dash (it's... so...
cold... in... here...), even she is smart enough to know FoxNews only had
her on so they could say they had an African-American woman on their
network, that she has no expertise or skills to contribute to any serious
topic such as economics or international relations. Rather than attempt to
actually learn about or get experience in a topic of substance, she decided
it'd be easier to try the only other job that seems to reward talking (or
Tweeting)... becoming a GOP politician. Now she has learned that even the
easy route is too difficult for her.
