Hugh Hewitt, the veteran conservative commentator who quit the Washington Post in a huff this past fall after an on-air argument with left-leaning colleagues, has joined Fox News Media as a contributor, the network announced Thursday.

Hewitt will provide political analysis across all Fox News platforms. He made his debut appearance on Friday’s edition of the evening news wrap-up show “Special Report with Bret Baier.”

Fox News, which shares common ownership with The Post, released a statement citing Hewitt’s experience as a nationally syndicated radio talk show host as well as a contributing columnist for several publications.

Hewitt’s arrival at Fox comes months after he walked off the set of the online Washington Post program “First Look” following a heated exchange with liberal columnists Jonathan Capehart and Ruth Marcus over claims surrounding President Donald Trump and the recent election.

During the broadcast, Capehart had questioned whether Trump was “laying the groundwork” to contest the election by citing alleged irregularities in Bucks County, Pa.

Marcus agreed, saying the former president had been preparing for such a challenge for months.

Hewitt attempted to respond but was interrupted by Capehart, who insisted Marcus finish her point.

When given the opportunity to speak, Hewitt defended the Trump campaign’s legal efforts, pointing out that a judge had sided with Republicans in extending voting hours in Bucks County after voters were reportedly turned away after a 5 p.m. deadline.

“We are news people, even though we have opinions, and we have to report the whole story if we bring up part of the story,” Hewitt said.

“So yes, he’s upset about Bucks County, but he was right and he won in court. That’s the story.”

Capehart then accused Hewitt of spreading misinformation.

“I don’t appreciate being lectured about reporting when, Hugh, many times you come here saying lots of things that aren’t based in fact,” he said.

The remark appeared to be the final straw. Hewitt tore out his earpiece and declared, “I won’t come back, Jonathan. I’m done.”

Hewitt’s departure from the Washington Post preceded a major shakeup at the newspaper, which has seen significant change under owner Jeff Bezos.

Marcus last month resigned from her position as editor after she said that a column criticizing Bezos for overhauling the editorial page was spiked by his top executive at the publication.

In late February, Bezos announced that he would reorient the Washington Post editorial page so that it would tout “personal liberties and free markets” — a move that prompted the resignation of opinions editor David Shipley.

Dozens of prominent staffers have left the paper in the wake of its controversial decision to block its editorial board from publishing an endorsement of the Democratic nominee, then-Vice President Kamala Harris, just prior to the Nov. 5 election.
