David mentioned this in his earlier post but I wanted to walk through it in a bit more detail. Hugh Hewitt not only walked off a Washington Post livestream hosted by Jonathan Capehart last Friday, he also quit his job as a columnist at the Post.
“I have in fact quit the Post but I was only writing a column for them every six weeks or so,” Hewitt told Fox News Digital, adding he’d recently offered to write another pro-Trump column for the paper ahead of the election. He informed editorial page editor David Shipley on Friday morning.
His last piece was published on Tuesday, where he called on the MAGA movement to evolve if Trump was elected president again. He was a rare pro-Trump voice at the liberal outlet, whose opinion roster and editorial board lean sharply to the left, but his pieces touched on a wide variety of topics.
As mentioned, this happened shortly…
