Trish Regan Out at Fox Business After Coronavirus Comments


Fox Business Network has parted ways with Trish Regan days after her comments that the coronavirus was "another attempt to impeach the president."

"Fox Business has parted ways with Trish Regan – we thank her for her contributions to the network over the years and wish her continued success in her future endeavors. We will continue our reduced live primetime schedule for the foreseeable future in an effort to allocate staff resources to continuous breaking news coverage on the coronavirus crisis," the network said in a statement.

Regan added in her own statement, "I have enjoyed my time at Fox and now intend to focus on my family during these troubled times. I am grateful to my incredible team at Fox Business and for the many opportunities the network has provided me. I'm looking forward to this next chapter in my career."

You got fired for wrongly blathering that the epidemic was no big deal! Now, we're in troubled times?
Yes, because of blithering idiots like you! Just go home & shut up.

We’ve reached a tipping point. The chorus of hate being leveled at #PresidentTrump is nearing a crescendo as #Dems blame him—and only him—for #coronavirus - a #virus that originated halfway around the world! This is yet another attempt to #impeach THE PRESIDENT. #TrishRegan

@realDonaldTrump
NEVER said the #coronavirus itself was a hoax. He said the #democrats’ attacks on his *handling* of the crisis was and is the “new hoax.” He’s right. #TrishRegan

I want to let everyone know that Trish Regan Primetime is now on hiatus. FBN has taken prudent steps to limit staffing levels and is prioritizing its coverage during market hours. I fully support this decision — we all must to do our part to keep our colleagues safe. #TrishRegan
