  "account": "Former White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt is set to join Fox News as an on-air contributor, beginning November 1, according to a statement from the network. Leavitt's unique perspective, garnered from her experience in the White House and on the presidential campaign trail, will be a valuable asset to Fox News, said the network's CEO, Suzanne Scott. Leavitt, who was the youngest person to hold the role of press secretary, expressed her enthusiasm for bringing her energy and candor to Fox's audience. She joins other former White House press secretaries who have also found success on Fox, including Kayleigh McEnany, who has been with the network since 2021. Trump has a history of hiring Fox personalities for key roles in his administration, with Pete Hegseth being a notable example.",
