Fox News politics editor Chris Stirewalt has been laid off from the outlet along with several other members of its digital staff.
When Fox News called Arizona for Joe Biden in November before other networks, Stirewalt and his team came under fire from Republicans who said it was premature. A source familiar with the matter, however, said the restructuring decisions weren't in response to coverage of the 2020 election.
The Washington Examiner reached out to the network for comment on the matter. A spokesperson declined to comment on specific details, citing employee confidentiality.
"As we conclude the 2020 election cycle, FOX News Digital has realigned its business and reporting structure to meet the demands of this new era," the spokesperson said. "We are confident these changes will ensure the platform continues to deliver breakthrough reporting and insightful analysis surrounding major issues, both stateside and abroad."

Expect a new rollout of FAUX NEWS “conservative” GOP establishment pundits.
Dump Paul Ryan.
Not enough, stop watching Fix News.
The far leftists currently slumming it at Fox News are irate that they will now be placed under adult supervision:
‘There is a concerted effort to get rid of real journalists,’ a former staffer told the Daily Beast.
‘They laid capable people off who were actual journalists and not blind followers.’
Another said: ‘It’s essentially the final nail in the coffin for digital journalism at Fox.’
Meanwhile, one former staffer blamed the ‘purge’ entirely on Berry, saying he is threatened by experienced digital editors given his background is in broadcast.
‘This is all Porter. Both an ideological purge and a purge of people he was threatened by,’ they said. ]
Who exactly is responsible for the worst business decisions since New Coke? We want names.
Yep - more unwatched programming
[Not enough, stop watching Fix News.]
I went with the Roku Stick+, I like it a lot.
Cutting the cable is the best way to hurt not only Fix News and the rest of the Ministry of Propaganda outlets, but also their enablers, Verizon, Comcast, Cox, etc.
Hope Sandra Smith, Chris wallass, and Neil Cavuto follow.
FOX learned absolutely nothing from the demise of ESPN. I think they’re both owned by Disney.
They both veered hard left. The ratings have plummeted. Let the firings begin...
I still watch ESPN because I don’t give a damn about what dumb athletes think about anything, and I can mute the sound or change the station when the wokeness preists and preistesses start yapping.....point is, at least the athletes are talented, so they have something to offer to a viewer
But Fox is all about politics, and since they betrayed us, there’s absolutely no reason to tune in anymore
So basically, I can’t stand ESPN, but I’m not gonna deprive myself of enjoying sports...but Fox needs to be destroyed
I was wondering why I haven’t seen Pigface Stirewalt at FNC in several months. Good riddance to him!
He thought he was so smart......to me he was a pig faced smart arse
FU News is now trying damage control.
They are clearly feeling the pressure of viewers leaving Faux News.
The Fat Pig Stirewalt ran wee wee wee all the way home... After getting canned!
“Laid off” is no apology, no recognition of what they did wrong. Fox admits nothing. It means nothing except these bozos are all used up.
Except you’re watching and paying for a channel (ESPN) where the talking heads and players actively hate you and everything you stand for.
