Fox News rocked: A host of “The Five” abruptly Pulled 0ff air for Sh0cking Reason!
Juan Williams, a veteran Fox News personality and co-host of “The Five,” tested pstv for crnvrus on Thursday and is now slf-isolating, according to two people close to him.
A day earlier, Mr. Williams appeared on a live broadcast from Fox News’s Midtown Manhattan headquarters, sharing the set with conservative hosts Jesse Watters and Greg Gutfeld, seated about seven feet apart.
He had returned to work on Monday after a vacation starting Nov. 18 and was quickly tstd. The pstv result came Thursday afternoon, forcing him to miss that day’s 5 p.m. show, which other hosts joined rmotely.
Fox News declined to comment specifically about Juan Williams’s health, citing employee privacy, but said: “We’ll keep broadcasting ‘The Five’ from home studios and prioritize staff safety.” The network added it continues rglr tstng, mask mandates, and daily hlth checks.
Notably, Juan Williams is known for his liberal stance, often criticizing President Trump’s hdlng of the pndmc. On Wednesday’s episode, he called Watters “shameful” for promoting dbnkd election frd theories – prompting Watters to reply: “Juan sounds nervous.”
Earlier, Mr. Williams was expsd at the first presidential debate in Cleveland and again after traveling from the second debate in Nashville with a Fox News employee who later tested pstv.
