The cable news channel suspended its ties with Newt Gingrich, one of the people on Donald Trump’s vice presidential short list.
Gingrich has been a Fox News contributor since last October. He appears frequently on the channel to give political commentary. But he is increasingly a subject of news coverage as well.
Trump is expected to name a running mate later this week, and Gingrich appears to be one of the front-runners, a person familiar with the deliberations told CNNPolitics.
The source indicated that Trump will likely announce his pick on Friday.

The article doesn’t clarify why Mr. Gingrich is no longer working with FOX News.
Here’s the rest of the story Mates:
On Tuesday afternoon, a statement from the network said, “Fox News
Channel has mutually agreed to suspend its contributor agreement with
Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich effective immediately.”
“Due to the intense media speculation about Gingrich’s potential
selection as Donald Trump’s vice presidential candidate, we felt it best
to halt his contributor role on the network to avoid all conflicts of
interest that may arise,” executive vice president for news Jay Wallace
said.
There you go folks….No bad news after all. : )
Incidentally. Mr. Trumps VP pick will either be Gingrich or Sen. Mike Pence. Both of whom are really amazing people.
