Former Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz to Join One America News Network as Anchor

A source familiar with the matter has revealed that former Florida congressman Matt Gaetz is expected to announce that he is joining One America News Network (OAN) as an anchor. This move comes after Gaetz withdrew his name from consideration to serve as attorney general last month, following a conversation with President-elect Donald Trump who told him he did not have the necessary votes in the Senate.

Gaetz, a Republican firebrand, had previously announced that he would not be returning to Congress next year. In a recent interview with conservative activist Charlie Kirk, he stated, “I’m still going to be in the fight, but it’s going to be from a new perch. I do not intend to join the 119th Congress.”

OAN President Charles Herring declined to comment on Gaetz’s potential hire when approached on Monday night. The addition of Gaetz as an OAN anchor represents a significant gain for the far-right network, given that most of its personalities are relatively unknown.

OAN has faced challenges in the past, including being dropped by DirecTV in 2022, and has struggled to gain widespread attention. However, it has established itself as a pro-Trump network, regularly featuring baseless conspiracy theories that support the former president, as well as documentaries with ties to Russian operatives. Penned during his first impeachment trial in 2019, these documentaries were used as evidence of his wrongdoing.

Gaetz’s decision to withdraw from the attorney general position came under heavy bipartisan pressure, following the release of a House Ethics Committee report detailing an investigation into him, including allegations of sexual misconduct and other alleged crimes. Gaetz has vehemently denied the allegations, including the claim that he had sex with a woman in 2017 who was a minor at the time. Since resigning from Congress, Gaetz has turned to the celebrity video message platform Cameo, where he sells personalized video messages.
