Fox News host Dana Perino is firing back after a misleading ad campaign falsely claimed she was leaving The Five due to tensions with Sean Hannity and a lawsuit involving Fox News. The scandalous claims, which spread quickly on Meta platforms like Facebook and Instagram, have sparked major controversy, with Perino threatening to expose those behind the scheme.
The ad campaign made some wild and unfounded accusations. Headlines like “It’s Official: We Say Farewell to Dana Perino” and “A Sad End to a Brilliant Career” falsely suggested that Perino had left the show under dramatic circumstances. The ads linked her supposed departure to a scandal involving Hannity and a lawsuit about her CBD business venture. These claims were completely fabricated.

The ad pointed to a product named “Fortin CBD Gummies,” claiming it could reverse dementia and was cheaper and more effective than competitors. The article suggested that Perino’s product caused friction with Hannity’s sponsors, even alleging that Hannity was furious about her business and had filed a lawsuit against her. These wild assertions were presented as fact, but they were entirely baseless and deceptive.

The Truth Behind the Claims
In reality, Dana Perino is not leaving The Five, and there are no tensions between her and Sean Hannity. The story in the ad was a complete fabrication, as Perino has no involvement with a CBD product, let alone one claiming to cure medical conditions like dementia. There is also no lawsuit or evidence to suggest any issues between her and Hannity, and the idea that their professional relationship had deteriorated was pure fiction.

Perino, who is known for her sharp commentary and professionalism, responded to the rumors with frustration, threatening to expose the scam behind the viral ads. “I’m not stupid,” she said, addressing the misinformation that had been spread. Her response has resonated with fans, who have rallied behind her as she combats this latest controversy.

The Scam Behind the Ads

The misleading ad campaign was part of a larger scam designed to trick users into clicking on fake content. The links led to an article hosted on a suspicious website, which falsely claimed that Perino’s product had major health benefits, including curing dementia—claims that contradict current scientific knowledge.

The ad not only misrepresented Perino’s involvement with the product but also included false endorsements from other Fox News hosts like Jesse Watters, which was completely fabricated. There was no known connection between Perino and these so-called “miracle” CBD gummies, nor had any Fox colleagues endorsed the product.

The Growing Problem of Online Scams

This incident highlights the growing issue of online scams using social media platforms to manipulate users with fake news and fraudulent products. The ad campaign preyed on Perino’s credibility and fame, hoping to deceive viewers into trusting their claims. This scam is part of a broader trend where unscrupulous marketers use the names of well-known public figures to sell unverified or dangerous products. Meta has since removed the fraudulent ads, but the incident has sparked a wider conversation about online marketing ethics.

Dana Perino’s Call for Transparency

In the wake of the scandal, Perino has called for greater transparency in online advertising and for greater accountability for those who spread misinformation. “It’s crucial to verify any claims before sharing or acting on them,” she said, addressing her followers and urging caution. Her fans have rallied behind her, applauding her determination to confront the misleading claims head-on.

Conclusion: The Real Story

To clear the air once and for all, Dana Perino is not leaving The Five, and there is no truth to the lawsuit or tension with Sean Hannity. The viral ad campaign was a fraudulent attempt to exploit her name and credibility for personal gain. As always, Dana Perino has remained composed in the face of these challenges, showing that even in the midst of controversy, the truth can—and will—prevail.
