Maria Bartiromo’s lawyer says she was not fired from Fox News
Bryan Freedman says Bartiromo remains employed and calls reports of her firing false as Fox reshapes her shows and leaves a contract dispute unresolved.
- Fox News Media announced Thursday that Maria Bartiromo is no longer with the network after more than 12 years, but her attorney Bryan Freedman denied the firing, calling such reports "absolutely and unequivocally false."
- Reports suggest Bartiromo's departure followed an incident where internal network guidance regarding President Donald Trump was allegedly shared with the White House, though Fox characterized the exit as a "business decision."
- The network is rebranding programs previously featuring the anchor, renaming "Mornings with Maria" to "Mornings with FOX Business" and "Maria Bartiromo's Wall Street" to "FBNs Wall Street," while former Republican congressman Jason Chaffetz will host "Sunday Morning Futures."
- Freedman, who has represented Tucker Carlson and other high-profile media figures, indicated legal action may follow, warning that "receipts and witnesses" will emerge and claiming reports exhibit a "reckless disregard for the truth."
- President Donald Trump called Bartiromo a "true warrior" on September 3, while Vice President JD Vance dismissed speculation she might join the administration; Bartiromo spent two decades at CNBC before joining Fox in 2014.
