Now for the real news: Geraldo Rivera, the “proverbial thorn” in Fox News’ side and long-time commentator on ‘The Five,’ is parting ways with the show. Rivera has been widely criticized as the network’s most insufferable commentator and his departure has been met with relief from viewers. Rivera’s Twitter farewell seemed to lack grace, hinting at tension within the show. His co-host Greg Gutfeld’s wit and incisive rebuttals may have played a role in his decision to leave.
