Fox News anchor Heather Nauert has been hired as spokeswoman for the State Department, becoming the public voice of an agency largely quiet since President Donald Trump’s inauguration, according to two people familiar with the matter.<\/p>\n
Nauert, news anchor on the morning “Fox & Friends” program that is one of Trump’s favorites, accepted the job this week, according to the people, who asked not to be identified because the decision hasn’t been formally announced. Nauert didn’t return an email seeking comment.<\/p>\n
Nauert, 47 will play a central role as the voice and face of the State Department after more than a month of silence since the agency suspended daily press briefings shortly before Trump’s inauguration on Jan. 20. The department has said briefings will resume on March 6, with acting spokesman Mark Toner behind the podium.<\/p>\n
