[Republic Brief] Geraldo Rivera left Fox News in 2016 after working there for two decades. Geraldo is currently on a "media tour" and has been complaining about the events that he alleges led to his termination from "The Five," which led him to leave the network.
Rivera complained to NewsNation presenter Chris Cuomo, telling him that his fights with well-liked FOX personality Greg Gutfeld were the primary cause of his termination from "The Five."
"Fox left me. They fired me from the number one rated show ’The Five.’ After they fired me, I said, ’Well, wait a second. You know, I don’t want to work here anymore.’ If you are firing me from the number one show, what are you going to do?" Rivera said. "After they fired me, they gave me a plethora of options, other programs I could do ... but I said, ’No, I don’t want to do that.’" |
