Fox News has hired their new Washington editor in Kerri Kupec, the former spokesperson for then-Attorney General William Barr, the network announced in a press release.
In her new role with the network, Kupec will participate in story selection and takes over the position left behind by Bill Sammon. Sammon retired as Fox News’s senior vice president and managing editor in Washington earlier this year.
“I am pleased that these dedicated individuals will join FOX News’ leadership team at our headquarters in New York and our largest bureau in Washington. They will continue to advance our robust news operation and commitment to showcasing diverse perspectives across the network.”
Along with working with the attorney general, Kupec was also part of former President Donald Trump’s transition team in 2016 and assisted the Office of White House Counsel’s Supreme Court confirmation team in 2018.
Kupec will begin her role as the Fox News Washington Editor effective immediately.
