Glenn Beck and The Blaze have filed a countersuit against Tomi Lahren claiming that she is still an employee with them and that she was not fired for her pro-choice comments.

Lahren has sued the program and Beck claiming that she was wrongfully terminated after she appeared on The View and admitted that she was pro-choice, a stance that the largely highly conservative audience of The Blaze was not here for.

The Blaze claims that they did not fire Lahren but instead took her show off the air for a week after her comments aired because they were “offensive to many of the TheBlaze’s supporters and followers.”

“Her comments were shocking and disappointing because they demonstrated Lahren was uninformed and unprepared to speak,” the Blaze added.

What’s more, The Blaze claims that Lahren’s “word choices on air had to be addressed repeatedly for bordering on the profane.”

Still, because Lahren is, they insist, still an employee at the Blaze, they are asking for a judge to step in to block her from trash-talking her employer and to keep her from making any public appearances that they have not approved.
