Overview
- Multiple outlets reported Monday that Fox News will add Karoline Leavitt as an on‑air contributor and that she is set to begin work on Nov. 1.
- Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott said Leavitt’s White House and campaign experience gives her a distinct view of the current political landscape.
- Leavitt left the White House in August after returning from maternity leave so she could spend more time with her young children while remaining an outside adviser to President Trump.
- Her hire places her alongside other former White House press secretaries on Fox, including Kayleigh McEnany, and continues a well‑trodden path from Trump communications roles into the network.
- The move will keep Leavitt in frequent public view as a high‑profile surrogate for Trump and could influence how the administration’s messages are framed on both Fox’s news and opinion programming.
