Maria Bartiromo Out at Fox News | US News

0:00On September 5th, so, Maria Bartiromo is out at Fox News and it went down fast. No goodbyes show, no bio, just gone. The official word is a business decision, but word on the street from folks like CNN's Brian Stelter is that this was a firing, a messy one at that similar to how Tucker Carlson bounced. Apparently, the whole thing blew up because Bartiromo might have shared some internal network guidance with White House folks. This happened after Fox told it shows to lay off some of Trump's claims about China and the 2020 election. So it seems like there are limits to how far the network will go, even for a strong Trump ally. This move is sparking a bigger conversation. Is Fox News starting to lip past Trump, maybe even thinking about who's next in the Republican Party for? 2028. Mediaite's Alex Griffin thinks this shows Fox isn't as scared of upsetting Trump or his supporters as they used to be. Griffin points out that while Fox and Trump had a mutually beneficial relationship, with

1:00Trump getting a platform and Fox getting his audience, that calculation might be shifting. As Trump's time is present and winds down, the media landscape is naturally starting to look ahead. Even Trump himself wasn't happy about it, calling Bartiromo a true warrior and warning Fox that her fans wouldn't be pleased. But the fact that Fox made this move, knowing it could cause friction, suggests they might be prioritizing something else now, perhaps preparing for a future beyond the current political climate.
