Longtime newscaster Geraldo Rivera has reached a new deal with cable news channel NewsNation.
Rivera will serve as “correspondent-at-large” effective immediately and will appear across the network's daytime and prime-time programming, the outlet said.
“Geraldo is a legendary journalist whose talent and experience is unrivaled in the industry,” Michael Corn, president of news at NewsNation, said in a statement announcing Rivera's hiring. “We look forward to him joining the network and providing our viewers with his one-of-a-kind analysis.”
Rivera spent two decades at Fox News as a correspondent and pundit, most recently serving as a co-host of table talk program “The Five.”(RELATED: 23-Year Fox News Veteran Geraldo Rivera Quits)
The longtime Fox contributor was fired last year over “a growing tension that goes beyond editorial differences.”
