Former Fox News Host Resurfaces in Philly

Former Fox News host Jillian Mele has landed a job back in local TV news.

WPVI (Philly) announced that they have hired Mele as an Anchor/Reporter at the ABC O&O.

During the on-air announcement of her departure from Fox News in October, Mele told viewers it was the most “difficult decision” of her life. She also said she’s pursuing an MBA at La Salle University, where she earned her bachelor’s degree.

“Ultimately, I had to do what was right for me,” Mele said. “I’m going to take a little time, focus on my personal life, which I haven’t done my whole adult life, and sleep past 1 a.m. for the first time in 15 years.”

“I have people coming up to me all the time asking me if I’m a conservative,” Mele told The Philly Inquirer in 2017. “I consider myself a news anchor, and I always say to people you shouldn’t know what I am.”

Amen to that!
