Trump’s latest Fox News hire leaves a giant hole in the network’s biggest show
CNN
One of the most coveted seats on Fox News is suddenly up for grabs after Trump appointed Pirro, an ex-prosecutor, to a DC perch.
Jeanine Pirro’s absence from “The Five” on Thursday was a tell. Minutes after the Fox News show wrapped, President Trump confirmed that Pirro will become the interim US attorney in Washington, DC, one of the top prosecutor jobs in the country. Don’t tune into “The Five” expecting a Pirro send-off show; her exit was effective immediately, according to a Fox spokesperson. This means that one of the most coveted seats in right-wing media is suddenly up for grabs. “The Five” often ranks as the top-rated show across all of cable news and is a proven launchpad for MAGA media superstardom. It is also an important plank of Fox’s profits since the high ratings for the 5pm talk show help propel viewership for the rest of the evening. Fox News says it will rely on a rotation of Fox personalities to fill the seat until a new co-host is named. Numerous Fox hosts and contributors have filled in for Pirro in the past, including Katie Pavlich, Kayleigh McEnany and Kellyanne Conway. Fox contributor Joey Jones sat in Pirro’s usual seat on Thursday.
