The Hill reports Chris Wallace, longtime host of Fox News Sunday, has announced he is leaving that show and the Fox News cable network.
Wallace also said he wants "to try something new, to go beyond politics to all the things I’m interested in. I’m ready for a new adventure," he added. "And I hope you’ll check it out."
Rumors have him going to CNN, where he might be a better fit in terms of his own politics. However, his “beyond politics” comment seems to suggest perhaps a morning show where they cover everything from show biz to the weather, and don’t emphasize politics.
In COTTonLINE’s “don’t let the doorknob hit you as you leave” tradition, a bye-ku or haiku of farewell for Chris Wallace.
Adieu Chris Wallace.
Red-headed stepchild at Fox,
Always a misfit.
Later … Now it is more than a rumor. See this Tweet announcing Wallace joining a new streaming service called CNN+.
I predict this move works no better than Megyn Kelly’s disastrous move to NBC. Do you imagine CNN's few viewers forgiving him for 18 years spent working for “enemy” Fox? Haters gotta hate.
