Lou Dobbs, Conservative Political Commentator, Dead at 78

'The Great America Show' host Lou Dobbs died on Thursday at the age of 78.

Notably, the pundit and former Lou Dobbs Tonight host for Fox News Business had his show canceled after he was named in a $2.7 billion lawsuit from voting company Smartmatic for espousing voter fraud conspiracy theories.
