After 22 years at Fox News, Geraldo Rivera has made his final appearance on the network.
“As a result of that I quit Fox,” he said.
During his last appearance on “Fox & Friends,” co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy acknowledged Rivera’s impact on Hispanic journalists in helping to break down racial and ethnic barriers in the TV news industry. Rivera actually started out as a lawyer, representing a group of Puerto Rican activists who made headlines in New York City in the early ‘70s. His appearances on the local news there caught the eye of the decision-makers at the ABC affiliate.
Rivera, who turns 80 on July 4, did not reveal his immediate plans, although he admitted recently on social media that he’s contemplating retirement.
