Geraldo Says He Got Surprising Phone Calls from Fox News Colleagues After Criticizing Tucker
Former Fox News employee Geraldo Rivera has gotten all the mileage he could, apparently, out of talking up how much he loathed the network’s on-air talent. So now, he’s trying to get some attention by talking up how much unnamed other people at Fox don’t like them, either.
In an interview with Mediaite earlier this week, Rivera again talked up his toxic relationship with “The Five” co-panelist Greg Gutfeld (without actually mentioning his name, as if the guy were Voldemort) and his outspoken opposition to Tucker Carlson, but he added a new rift to the conversation: After he called out Tucker, Rivera said, he claims to have gotten “calls from within Fox” telling him that he was “right on.”
Rivera left Fox News in June after numerous reports that things were going poorly between him and Gutfeld behind the scenes on “The Five.”
