CEO of The Dispatch Stephen Hayes left Fox News following the release of Tucker Carlson’s special for Fox Nation called “Patriot Purge,” about the Jan. 6 mob attacking the Capitol and has found a new home.
Hayes will be joining NBC News as a contributor and political analyst. As part of his new role with the network, he will appear regularly across all NBC News platforms, including “Today,” “Meet the Press with Chuck Todd,” and the streaming service NBC News Now.
“I’ve known and worked with Steve Hayes on and off for nearly 25 years. He is a principled reporter and analyst who always puts truth and facts above emotion and sentiment … even when it comes to our beloved Green Bay Packers,” Todd said in a statement.
Hayes will make his NBC News contributor debut this coming Sunday on Meet the Press, a show he’s familiar with, making appearances in the past. Along with appearing on shows, Hayes will also be part of special political and election coverage.
