Donald Trump on Friday commended Maria Bartiromo as a "true warrior" in the wake of her departure from Fox News Media, stating he was shocked by the development. Trump said he "can't believe" Bartiromo would no longer be hosting her programmes at the network.
Bartiromo's exit marks the end of more than a dozen years with Fox News Media. The veteran financial and political correspondent had been a prominent fixture on the network's programming lineup. Her lawyer has disputed reports suggesting she was terminated, though the precise circumstances surrounding her departure remain unclear.
Trump cautioned that Bartiromo's significant fan base "will not be happy" about her exit from Fox. The former president's remarks underscored the high regard in which Bartiromo is held by prominent political figures and her substantial viewership.
Bartiromo has established herself as one of the network's prominent journalists, known for her coverage of business and political news. Her next career move has not been immediately disclosed.
