Fox Business host Trish Regan has been removed from her prime-time show for claiming the coronavirus was nothing but “another attempt to impeach the president.”
Her program Trish Regan Primetime is “on hiatus until further notice” according to a statement from Fox Business. It is unclear if she will continue to appear on other Fox Business programs. Executives said this week that the show is “unlikely to return to the lineup.”
The decision was made as a response to “the demands of the evolving pandemic crisis coverage.” Fox said they would instead focus their resources on general-interest programs.
In front of a “Coronavirus Impeachment Scam” graphic, Regan accused Democratic critics of creating “mass hysteria to encourage a market sell-off” and creating fear “to demonize and destroy the president.”
