Depending on who you ask, CNN anchor Jim Acosta is getting a chance to speak to a much broader audience with an assignment at a new and non-traditional time slot, or he’s being removed entirely from the usual daily discussion around the news.
Executives at CNN have asked Acosta to take a new role, anchoring a show that would air from midnight to 2 a.m. on the eastern coast of the U.S., according to two people familiar with the matter. Even so, the show has been pitched a chance to deliver live breaking news to audiences on the West coast and overseas at times when viewers in those regions are still active and craving information.
The offer was issued this week, according to these people, and Acosta, who gained a broader profile at CNN with his coverage of the White House during the first administration of President Donald Trump,...

Updated: This past weekend saw a parade of Republican elected officials and conservative commentators blast the White House for recognizing Sunday as the Transgender Day Of Visibility, as it happened to fall this year on the same day as Easter.
That continued into Monday, with radio hosts highlighting the outrage and FoxNews.com devoting its 11th story so far over the flap.
At today’s press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre called out Fox, noting that “we are at first … confused on their coverage. We are grateful that Fox agrees with President Biden about the importance of recognizing trans day of visibility.”
She then went on to read a tweet that Fox TV, the broadcast network sister division of Fox News, put out in 2021 that noted the Trans Day Of Visibility and read, “To all the transgender men, women and non-binary folx, we see you and stand with you.

Geraldo Rivera has called Fox News his home since leaving CNBC in 2001 to join the cable outlet as its ostensible war correspondent. He appears to have a lost a recent battle.
After being ousted from a rotation on “The Five,” Rivera said in a video post on Twitter Thursday, he is leaving Fox News. “I’ve been fired from ‘The Five,’ and as a result, I quit Fox,” the veteran TV personality said, while riding a boat. He said he might appear on “Fox & Friends” Friday to offer more comment, but would not be appearing on “The Five” one last time, as he had previously indicated he would.
“We reached an amicable conclusion with Geraldo over the past few weeks, and look forward to celebrating him tomorrow on ‘Fox & Friends,’ which will be his last appearance on the network,” Fox News said in a statement Thursday evening.

Update: Geraldo Rivera said that he will announce next week whether he will stay with Fox News or move on to something else.
Rivera announced earlier this week that he was leaving a regular gig on Fox News’ The Five, but that he was still a correspondent at large for the network.
On Twitter, Rivera wrote on Friday that he was “unsure about my next career move.” He previously said that his contract runs through 2025. Rivera spoke to Brian Kilmeade for his Wabc radio show. Kilmeade is a co-host of Fox News’ Fox & Friends.
Rivera has been among the rotating panelists filling the so-called liberal seat on The Five, which is the top rated show on cable news. He said that his final appearances on the show will be on June 29 and 30.

Following a Wednesday morning tweet revealing he was leaving The Five, Geraldo Rivera has issued a subsequent statement revealing he has quit the Fox News political commentary series rather than being booted. The veteran TV personality said appearing on the series was no longer “worth it to me.” The Five is a late-afternoon panelist program on Fox News that features conservative panelists Jeanine Pirro, Jesse Watters, Dana Perino, and Greg Gutfeld and rotating “liberal” panelists Rivera, Jessica Tarlov, and Harold Ford Jr. The latter three have served as rotating hosts since Juan Williams left the series in 2021. The series, which has been running since 2011, boasts some of cable news’ highest ratings. “Morning, it’s official, I’m off @TheFive. My last scheduled show appearances are Thursday and Friday June 29th and 30th,” Rivera tweeted Wednesday morning. “It’s been a great run and I appreciate having had the opportunity. Being...

The round-table show “The Five” has proven to be one of Fox News Channel’s most durable properties. And yet, after a decade on air, the late-afternoon program can still surprise even the most veteran executive at the Fox Corp. cable-news outlet.
“The Five,” which these days relies largely on a trio of regulars and two rotating guests, outmaneuvered primetime colleagues like Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity to become the most-watched show on the network — and cable news — in October, according to data from Nielsen. “The Five,” led by Greg Gutfeld, Dana Perino and Jesse Watters, captured an average of nearly 3.11 million viewers during the month, compared to around 3.08 million for “Tucker Carlson Tonight” at 8 p.m. and nearly 2.74 million for “Hannity” at 9 p.m.
Carlson’s program continues to lead the network and the overall cable-news sector among viewers between the ages of 25 and 54, the demographic most coveted by advertisers in news programming.

Executives at Fox News Channel believe one of the core elements behind the durability of the network’s late-afternoon panel program, “The Five,” is the connection between founding panelists Dana Perino and Greg Gutfeld. When the pair first met, however, they seemed to find little in common.
Gutfeld, then hosting the wee-hours program “Red Eye,” asked Perino, then a contributor still involved with public relations after her time at the White House, to appear on the show, and approached her outside the Fox Corp. outlet’s Manhattan headquarters. “She pretended there was somebody behind me that she recognized…’Oh, who’s that? Oh, hi, Steve,’” Gutfeld recalls. Perino says she doesn’t fully remember the incident, but “in my defense, I had never been up at 3 a.m. to watch. I didn’t know what I was being asked to do.” Now, she credits Gutfeld with helping her develop a stronger on-air personality.

Donna Brazile, former interim head of the Democratic National Convention, has exited Fox News for a contributor role at ABC News, an individual with knowledge of the deal told TheWrap.
Brazile served as interim DNC chairwoman in 2012 and from 2016 to 2017. She’s had a wide-ranging career in television throughout her time as a political operative.
Prior to joining Fox News in 2019, she served as a commentator for CNN — and resigned in October 2016 after the disclosure that she had leaked debate questions to Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton ahead of a primary debate.
A CNN statement at the time said the network was “completely uncomfortable” with what WikiLeaks revelations had shown. Her resignation, however, was not made public for two weeks.

Donna Brazile has joined ABC News as a contributor, after a stint as a regular for Fox News.
Brazile made her first appearance at the network on This Week with George Stephanopoulos last Sunday.
ABC News confirmed a Variety report on Brazile’s move.
Back in 2019, when she joined Fox News, she drew extensive attention for her move to the network, writing for FoxNews.com that “to bridge this great divide, we need to bust out of our comfort zone. In coming to work as a commentator at Fox News, trust me, I’m stepping out of my comfort zone. My beliefs will be challenged, and I welcome it.” She continued to make occasional appearances on ABC News during the period as well.
Brazile’s presence at Fox News was a source of irritation for then President Donald Trump, who occasionally blasted the network for featuring her in their commentary.

He will continue to serve as a Fox News senior political analyst. With the show set to return to the studio June 1, Williams chose to stay close to home in Washington, D.C., rather than commute to New York.

When you gotta go, you gotta go. During Friday’s airing of “The Five” on Fox News, co-host Greg Gutfeld made an announcement that wasn’t meant for his viewers: “I gotta pee. I gotta peeeee.”
Gutfeld sang his untimely predicament while Juan Williams was trying to bring the show back in from a commercial break. The panel of gobsmacked co-hosts just watched and listened in with, “Um, what’s going on?” grins on their faces. Finally, colleague Jesse Watters jumped in, “You’re on the air.”
The co-hosts all laughed, and Watters said he’d be happy to take Gutfeld’s spot until he sorted out his business.
Later, after the moment had gained considerable traction on Twitter, Gutfeld posted a message for everyone who was concerned about how it all came out.

The co-hosts on Fox News Channel’s The Five went to a remote format Thursday, with reports that Juan Williams tested positive for the coronavirus.
Williams, who had been in studio on Wednesday socially distanced from the show’s four other panelists, told The Daily Beast that “I’m not great but I’m not dying or anything. I’m worried about myself and my family. My wife doesn’t want me to come back to the house right now. On lots of levels it’s concerning.”
A Fox Media spokesperson declined comment, citing employee privacy and confidentiality of health records. The New York Times reported that Williams left for vacation on Nov. 18, returned to Fox News studio on Monday and received the positive result on Thursday afternoon. He was quarantining and not among the co-hosts featured on Thursday’s show.

Rachel Maddow will quarantine after being in close contact with someone who tested positive for Covid-19, the MSNBC host said on Friday.
“I have had a close contact test positive for Covid — I’ve tested negative thus far but will be at home quarantining ’til it’s safe for me to be back at work without putting anyone at risk,” Maddow, who did not identify who the “close contact” was, said in a statement.
Due to her quarantine, Maddow will be skipping Friday’s election coverage but said MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace, Joy Reid, Brian Williams and Steve Kornacki would continue the coverage in her absence.
“See you soon! Wishing everyone patience and calm; may these remarkable times bring out the best in all of us,” Maddow added.

Fox News saw quite a bit of backlash for calling Arizona for Joe Biden on Tuesday night.
The Trump camp contested the call right away, saying that the number of outstanding votes in the southwestern state still gave the president a very real chance to win. Fox News’ Decision Desk stood by the decision, however, stating their statistical models put Trump four standard deviations away from winning.
“Yes, there are some outstanding votes in Arizona,” said Arnon Mishkin, director of the Fox News Decision Desk, after the call was made. “Most of them are coming from Maricopa, where Biden is currently in a very strong position. And many of them are mail-in votes where we know from our Fox News voter analysis Biden has an advantage. We don’t know exactly how many mail-in votes there are, but what I think we’ve heard from the White House is that...

Brown, who had worked with the company for 21 years, died of complications from Covid-19, his family told The Daily Beast, adding that he had not been in the company’s midtown Manhattan offices since March. His age and date of death could not immediately be determined.

Updated, 8:39 Am: Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott and president Jay Wallace said in a memo to employees Monday that they will be further reducing their workforce in their buildings and operating virtually “wherever possible” throughout the week after confirming a “few positive cases” of coronavirus at the company.
The memo follows a New York Times report on Sunday that Wallace and several of its anchors, including Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, are being advised to quarantine after possible exposure to a person who later tested positive for Covid-19. They had been on a flight with that person returning from Nashville after coverage of the final presidential debate last week.

All of Fox News’ “The Five” is back in the studio Monday, one of the largest casts and crews to get back together in-house amid the pandemic.
“The Five” won’t utilize its signature desk anymore. Instead, Jesse Watters, Greg Gutfeld, Dana Perino, Juan Williams and the daily rotating co-host will be sitting on stools in a semicircle layout, spaced six feet apart to comply with social distancing guidelines.
In place of the desk, they each have their own table.
After nearly half a year working from home, Perino told TheWrap, “I’ll always remember doing the show sitting crossed-legged on a stool, [my dog] Jasper sleeping at my feet, and willing the train whistle to come during a commercial break and not during one of my colleague’s turns to speak.”

The broadcast and cable networks have been waiting to finalize their plans as it became clear that the conventions will be almost all virtual, as Democrats last week scrapped plans for speakers in the host city of Milwaukee and Republicans abandoned a large-scale convention amid the pandemic. Instead, President Donald Trump says that he plans to deliver a speech from the White House or at Gettysburg, Pa, the site of the bloodiest Civil War battle.

Andrea Mitchell almost drowned in balloons when she covered the 2008 Republican National Convention, and was forced to swat them away as she tried to tell MSNBC viewers what was taking place on the ground.
In 2020, the longtime NBC News and MSNBC correspondent will have plenty of air.
Fewer TV journalists will be on the ground at either the Milwaukee site previously selected for the Democratic National Convention or the Jacksonville or Charlotte venues Republicans had chosen to televise their selection process. Mitchell realizes the viewing public is likely to miss some spectacle – and so will the journalists, who were often put through their paces in various arenas and amphitheaters before the TV cameras went on. Mitchell recalls having to get hold of a seating chart and do the equivalent of sprints around the areas reserved for various state delegations so she could practice getting from one place to another while talking to TV audiences.
