Karoline Leavitt to spend less time with family as Fox News contributor

Leavitt, who is 29, is the youngest person ever appointed to be White House Press Secretary. She also oversaw perhaps the most hostile briefing room in modern history, which repeatedly railed against the mainstream media for their less-than-sycophantic coverage of the President. (The revoking of press credentials for CNN and MS NOW happened after Leavitt’s departure.) Fox News wasn’t totally immune from the President’s wrath, as The New York Times points out, though it’s obviously held in a better light by the administration than more centrist or liberal fare like CNN or MS NOW. 

Press secretaries on both sides of the aisle have found work in cable news after their time in the White House. Most recently, former Joe Biden press secretary Jen Psaki landed her own show at MS NOW, while Jay Carney and Dana Perino of the Obama and Bush administrations, respectively, have both gone on to work in TV.
