Recent online chatter has sparked a wave of speculation surrounding Fox News veteran Dana Perino and her future with the network. Questions about her continued role on both The Five and America’s Newsroom have circulated widely on social media and tabloid headlines. But are the rumors true?

Here’s what we know—and what’s really going on behind the scenes.

Dana Perino Remains a Key Fox News Figure

Media People: Fox News Anchor Dana Perino on Polarization and Election  Denial

Despite the buzz, Dana Perino is not leaving The Five or Fox News. She continues to be a prominent and trusted voice on the network, currently listed as a co-host on The Five and as co-anchor of America’s Newsroom alongside Bill Hemmer. Both shows rank among the top-rated programs on cable news, and Perino remains front and center in their success.

In addition to her on-air roles, Perino hosts Perino on Politics, a podcast available via Fox News Audio, where she brings thoughtful political analysis and interviews with key figures in the public sphere.

Where Did the Rumors Come From?

The confusion about Perino’s status appears to have stemmed from a misleading online advertising campaign that falsely claimed she was leaving Fox News to launch a line of CBD gummies. The ads went viral, featuring doctored headlines and images, sparking false narratives that included supposed legal disputes between Perino and fellow Fox News host Sean Hannity.

These claims, however, are completely false. Multiple fact-checking outlets, including Snopes and Lead Stories, have debunked the story. In fact, a spokesperson from Fox News Media stated plainly, “I can confirm that this report is false.”

There’s also no evidence of any dispute between Perino and Hannity. Neither party has made any public statement on the matter, because there’s nothing to address—it simply didn’t happen.

Dana’s Expanding Portfolio: New Book Coming in 2025

Far from stepping back, Dana Perino is expanding her professional endeavors. She’s preparing to release a new book, I Wish Someone Had Told Me: The Best Advice for Building a Great Career and a Meaningful Life, through Fox News Books. Scheduled for release on April 22, 2025, the book will feature life and career guidance from industry leaders—including her colleagues at Fox News.

This will be Perino’s third book and is expected to appeal to young professionals, women in business, and aspiring journalists looking to learn from one of the most respected figures in media and politics.
