Fox News has terminated its contract with former Sen. Scott Brown, R-Mass., ahead of his expected move toward a Senate bid, the network announced Friday.
Scott Browns contributor agreement was officially terminated today once he notified FOX News of his intention to form an exploratory committee to run for U.S. Senate in New Hampshire, Bill Shine, the networks executive vice president of programming, said in a statement.
Brown is scheduled to deliver a speech at 4:30 p.m. today in Nashua at the Northeast Republican Leadership Conference, where he may for the first time confirm he is moving closer to launching a Senate campaign in New Hampshire. The Associated Press reported Thursday that Brown has begun reaching out to potential campaign staff and would announce the formation of an exploratory committee as early as today.
Browns candidacy would give Republicans hope for a seat that would otherwise likely be unattainable with the partys current crop of candidates.
Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen remains favored for re-election. Still, a Brown candidacy ensures she will not have an easy bid for a second term. A tweet from Shaheens account Friday made it clear her campaign is expecting an onslaught of TV advertising with Brown in the race: Scott Brown is gearing up to announce help defend our record from Brown, Rove and the rest of his allies.
