Sitting GOP Congressman Matt Gaetz Hosts Fox News Program

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) took time away from his official duties on Capitol Hill to guest host Fox News’ afternoon program “Outnumbered.” The appearance underscores what some see as a symbiotic relationship between Fox News and the Republican Party.

The Florida congressman joined hosts and contributors Melissa Francis, Lisa Marie Boothe, Leslie Marshall and Harris Faulkner to discuss topics including the economy and his chamber’s new Democratic majority.

Gaetz, an ally of President Donald Trump, has been interviewed several times as a guest on Fox News, but this is his first time stepping in as a guest host on one of its programs.

Gaetz isn’t getting paid for his duties, a spokeswoman for Fox News told HuffPost. Republican elected officials have served as Fox News guest hosts in the past.
