The panel talk show ‘The Five’ of FOX News is one of the network’s consistently highest rated shows. It has been a total success.
Many hosts have come and gone over the years, with Greg Gutfeld and Dana Perino being the only two original hosts who are still with the show. Now they have added another new permanent host.
Emily Compagno, who has been a guest host on the show numerous times, will now be full time. She is a great choice.
FOX News just made the announcement:
Fox News’ Emily Compagno joins ‘The Five’ as new co-host
Fox News’ Emily Compagno will join “The Five” as the program’s new co-host, the network announced Monday.
Compagno will make her official debut as a mainstay on “The Five” beginning Sept. 8. She will be joining longtime co-hosts Greg Gutfeld, Dana Perino and Jesse Watters as well as rotating hosts Harold Ford Jr. and Jessica Tarlov who fill the liberal seat at the table.
“Fifteen years later, ‘The Five’ remains a powerhouse and appointment viewing for millions of Americans. Emily is a highly accomplished host whose energy and talent have made her a standout across FOX News Media, and we are thrilled to officially welcome her to the show,” Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott said in a statement.
“I couldn’t be more honored to join ‘The Five,’ a team I have long admired and have been fortunate to work alongside over the years,” Compagno said. “Having an official seat at the table on what I truly believe is the most fun show on television is an incredible privilege. I am grateful for the opportunity and can’t wait to get started.”
Compagno will step down as co-host of “Outnumbered” and a rotation of Fox News personalities will fill her seat until a permanent co-host is named.
