Highlighting his golden anniversary ahead of Sunday night's special, Rivera opened up about a pivotal point in his career following the attacks of September 11, 2001, when the native New Yorker walked away from a high-paying CNBC gig and joined Fox News to work as a war correspondent. The move was a personal one for Rivera, he explained.
"I had a cushy job in the highest-rated show on CNBC at the time. But they would not let me go to war and when 9/11 happened, it hit my hometown," he told Jon Scott. "We lost six dads in our child's elementary school," Rivera said. "It was outrageous and terrible and I was so furious, I just wanted to personally take revenge against Usama bin Laden and what they did to my town and my country. And CNBC would not let me go.
"I took 40% of the pay that they were paying me to go to work as a correspondent and I've not regretted it for a minute."
Who...oh oh oh the guy who found an empty Al Capone vault and made an ass of himself on national television. Good place for him among the jokes
Geraldo has had a great career. Fox needs to fire the reporters spewing false stories about trump. Have the balls to come forward.
What ever. Loser
