Adam Housley tweet on his decision to leave Fox
@adamhousley Aug 24
• Getting some time to see all this spin has me wanting to make one thing clear. Fox gave me amazing opportunities. I am not bashing them on the way out. For you partisans, look at my news reporting. I have 17 years of solid fair work. My coverage speaks for itself.
• Some news numbers for you. 24 countries. 22 states…more than 1100 nights on the road. Some of the biggest stories of our time. It was a blessing. I will miss it and my colleagues. Behind the camera and in front. Many lifelong friends. Here’s a shocker. From all networks too
• And final comment on this. My statement speaks for itself and as soon as this hurricane collapses I can’t wait to hug my kids and my amazing wife, have an amazing glass of wine and coach soccer. Proud of my friends, family and career this far.
Well wishes to Adam
Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera
• I’ll miss you @adamhousley You’re a terrific reporter, brave, smart & loyal colleague. Plus, you owe me like a hundred drinks. Love and best wishes to you, Tamera and your kids. Remember Erica and I were there for your gala launch party, aka wedding. xxx
