McEnany to join Fox News, financial disclosure report shows
By Brett Samuels - 01/26/21 11:45 AM EST Former White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany has an agreement in place to join Fox News this month, according to financial disclosure documents published Tuesday.
McEnany listed an "employment agreement with Fox News, starting work in January" on her termination report upon leaving the government. The report was obtained and published by watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.
The document does not specify what McEnany's role will be. Neither McEnany nor a Fox News spokesperson responded to requests for comment.

The former press secretary's new job marks the latest instance of a Trump administration official joining the network favored by conservatives, or vice versa.
One of McEnany's predecessors, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, took a role as a Fox contributor after leaving the White House in 2019. Senior Trump adviser Hope Hicks took a job at Fox Corporation upon leaving the White House in 2018, only to return to working for Trump later in his term.
Trump had also hired Bill Shine from Fox News to work as White House communications director ahead of the 2018 midterm elections. Former Trump administration officials John Bolton, Scott Atlas and others made frequent appearances on the network before joining the government.
