“His contract is up and we will not be renewing it, ” a Fox spokesperson said.
The Morris announcement comes in the wake of Fox's decision not to
renew Sarah Palin's contract.
The network did announce that former Bush White House adviser Karl Rove had been renewed as a contributor. The network also signed on former Democratic Congressman Dennis Kucinich as a contributor.
Morris, reached via email, told Newsmax he is looking forward to
his appearance on CNN.
"Piers and I have a lot to talk about, and I am excited that Piers is giving me this opportunity," Morris wrote cryptically. "You won't be disappointed, so tune in."
Fox's rating have fallen dramatically in the wake of last year's election. Press reports indicate the cable channel is re-evaluating its approach after President Obama's strong re-election victory, despite the fact a number of Fox hosts and analysts predicted otherwise.
