A co-host of Fox Newsā āThe Fiveā will no longer be on the show.
In a tweet on Wednesday, Geraldo Rivera wrote, āMorning, itās official, Iām off . My last scheduled show appearances are Thursday and Friday June 29th and 30th.ā
āItās been a great run and I appreciate having had the opportunity. Being odd man out isnāt always easy,ā he continued.
āHowever, Rivera added, āFor the time being, Iām still Correspondent at Large.ā
Rivera was one of the liberal co-hosts who would appear on the show.
His comments come weeks after there was speculation he had been removed from the show.
There was speculation about his future on the program shortly after Fox Newsparted ways with former host Tucker Carlson in April.
Shortly after news of Carlsonās departure, Rivera wrote on Twitter, āI donāt wish ill on anybody, but there is no doubt-as I said at the time-Tucker Carlsonās perverse January 6 conspiracy theory was ābullshit.ā Having lost the election President Trump incited an insurrection that sought to undermine our Constitutional process.ā
Days later Rivera tweeted, āMy appearances today and tomorrow on The Five have been canceled. Iām sure thereās a good reason.ā
āNever fear, Iāll be back week after next. Stay safe and happy. Thanks,ā he assured his fans.
On May 17, Rivera shot down a rumor he had been removed from the show.
