Bartiromo’s final “Mornings with Maria” aired this morning on Fox Business Network. Moving forward, the show will be retitled “Morning with Fox Business” utilizing a rotation of different anchors.
Bartiromo’s long-running Sunday show, “Sunday Morning Futures,” will be hosted by Jason Chaffetz this week, and a new host will be announced at a later date.
Over the past decade, Bartiromo, once a respected business journalist over on CNBC, shifted gears and became a pro-Trump cultist.
Some folks are pondering whether she could be Trump’s pick for White House Press Secretary, but Vice President JD Vance says ‘no.’
