Fox News Vice President & Washington Bureau Chief Kim Hume (wife of Brit Hume) has resigned from Fox, & agreed to work till the November elections. From tomorrow, Gretchen Carlson will replace E.D. Hill on Fox & Friends. E.D. Hill will anchor Fox News Live from 10am to 12am. (old crew are angry).
Follow-up notes indicted that there is behind-the-scenes action, but the Hume's aren't talking. And F&F decision was made suddenly too as E.D. didn't have a chance to tell her fans.
Good grief, does anyone know what's going on over at Fox News? I will be VERY distressed if we lose Brit Hume... "Special Report" is bar none my favorite FNC show. I rarely miss it. I hope and pray a Brit Hume resignation isn't coming next.
Does anyone know what happened to Linda Vester, Bridget Quinn, and will Laurie Dhue return since I believe Geraldo's show has apparently bit the dust? (Questions I've been asked over and over by "FoxFans", and wonder about myself)
I run the FoxFan ping list, but I have no FNC "inside knowledge"...
BTW, I am posting this from a hotel... I won't be be back on FR (with access to my ping lists) until sometime this evening. Thanks in advance for any replies, and thanks for the ping, StarFan.
The main info came from Anita on the Sunday News thread. She followed up by saying that Brit and Kim are decent folks and won't talk in public about her resignation. A Fox producer quoted in a later article on the same thread said he wanted to make clear it was her decision and hers alone to resign.
Linda Vester had a baby and has decided not to return to Fox News Channel.
Linda suffered some complications with her pregancy thus left early. Latest word is that she will not be returning. Frankly I wonder what will happen to Laurie as I too heard Geraldo was cancelled yet his show is still listed in TV Guide. Haven't a clue about Bridget Quinn but frankly thought she talked too much and said little.
