According to a new report, Gutfeld&#8217;s behavior was cited as a prime reason for Rivera&#8217;s decision to leave the popular program.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Rivera announced his departure from the show, stating, &#8220;There has been a growing tension that goes beyond editorial differences and personal annoyances and gripes. It&#8217;s not worth it to me,&#8221; as reported by The Associated Press.<\/p>\n<p>Rivera did not mention Gutfeld by name when discussing his departure, but it is clear that their relationship played a significant role in his decision. Rivera said he chose to leave &#8220;The Five,&#8221; and Fox News did not make an effort to convince him to stay.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Morning, it&#8217;s official, I&#8217;m off <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheFive?\">@TheFive<\/a>.

The site claims that there were &#8220;knockdown drag-out fights&#8221; between Rivera and Gutfeld, both on and off-camera, based on information from an unnamed insider.<\/p>\n<p>The insider revealed, &#8220;Geraldo and Greg do not get along. That is obvious to anyone who watches &#8216;The Five.&#8217; But what people didn&#8217;t see on television is how often that tension spilled over off-camera. There is no love lost between Geraldo and Greg, that is for certain.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to Radar Online, it appears that Rivera had worn out his welcome at Fox News. The insider stated, &#8220;Geraldo was once the favorite of Fox \u2014 but he doesn&#8217;t have that role anymore. Greg is the new king of Fox News, having dominated the late-night timeslot with his show &#8216;Gutfeld!&#8217; Being at the top of your game ensures you have network bosses eating out of the palm of your hands! In this power struggle, Gutfeld won.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Geraldo Rivera appeared to have a strained relationship with Greg Gutfeld after multiple heated exchanges on &#8220;The Five&#8221; and had suggested that the co-host was the reason he was showing up less frequently on the cable news show. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kLlcwXQXjD\">https:\/\/t.co\/kLlcwXQXjD<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Los Angeles Times (@latimes) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/latimes\/status\/1671566147949346817?\">June 21, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Radar Online also cited another source who claimed that Rivera had no support from upper management. The source explained, &#8220;When the tension between Greg and Geraldo spilled from on-air to off-air \u2014 and people were forced to pick a side \u2014 it came down to choosing between a Fox News stalwart or the future of Fox News. And Greg had the overwhelming backing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Los Angeles Times suggested that Rivera&#8217;s departure is likely part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/greg-gutfeld-reportedly-the-reason-geraldo-rivera-is-leaving-the-five-knockdown-drag-out-fights\/\" title=\"Greg Gutfeld allegedly caused Geraldo Rivera's departure from 'The Five' due to intense arguments.\">cost-cutting measures implemented<\/a> by Fox News in recent months.
