Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham is under some major heat over her coverage regarding the late rapper Nipsey Hussle.

On an episode of The Ingraham Angle which aired this past Friday, a day after the Los Angeles rapper was laid to rest, Ingraham spoke on Hussle’s Celebration of Life Memorial which she overshadowed the service by saying that Nipsey had “recently released” the track “FDT” and decided to emphasize the song’s lyrics. Clearly Ingraham has no insight to her facts, as the song dropped back in 2016 and Hussle is only featured not he three-year-old song. Adding insult to injury, the Angle show used a video clip that only showed YG’s chorus.

As many are still processing losing Nipsey and coming to terms with saying last good-byes, Ingraham’s insensitive and mocking comments is not sitting well with rapper The Game. In an Instagram post, Game clearly wants to have Laura fired from the Fox show and he asks for his fans and followers to continue to have their foot on her neck and share the clip in boycott of the news channel and Laura herself.

In his lengthy caption, Game called out Ingraham saying:

So lemme tell you what’s going to happen here…. @foxnews fires this disrespectful cunt by tomorrow, Monday morning or you will lose millions of viewers one person at a time until it drastically effects your ratings, views etc… if our demographic doesn’t effect that we will STOP support of ALL SPONSORS immediately !!! We are NO LONGER laying quiet while you continuously disrespect our brother, culture African Americans as a whole. I will use my platform & call on my peers to do the same. Nips passing nor his legacy is to be taken lightly as there will be consequences for any disrespect now or in the future as long as I have a voice !!!
