Why Greta Van Susteren is leaving Fox News so suddenly

http://money.cnn.com/2016/09/06/media/greta-van-susteren-leaving-fox-news/index.html

A courier arrived at Van Susteren's Washington, D.C. home at 9 a.m. Tuesday, hand-delivering two letters that said that Van Susteren "was being taken off the air" immediately, according to her husband, John Coale, who is a high-profile Washington lawyer....

The messy breakup is the latest sign of tension -- "chaos," according to Coale -- behind the scenes at Fox News....

The network announced her departure less than an hour after the courier arrived. Van Susteren was not quoted in the press release.

Fox then deleted the "On the Record" web site, Van Susteren's biography, and her pioneering Gretawire blog -- essentially erasing her from FoxNews.com.
