Former 2024 GOP presidential candidate Asa Hutchinson is joining Scripps News as a political analyst, the news organization announced Monday.
Hutchison, a former Arkansas governor who ran in the Republican primary for president this cycle, is set to appear regularly on Mondays on the news outlet’s politics and campaign-oriented evening show, “The Race.”
He joined the outlet as a political analyst for the first time Monday.
“I am excited to be part of the Scripps News team as we head into one of the most consequential elections in history,” Hutchinson said in a press release. “Scripps News is committed to balance in its coverage of politics, and that is what America needs at this critical moment.”
Hutchinson was among the most anti-Trump candidates in the GOP field.
The former Arkansas governor performed poorly in the primary as the Republican contest underscored former President Trump’s enduring dominance within the party. He ultimately dropped out in January after the Iowa caucuses.
Another presidential candidate who’s made transitioned into a new role after dropping out of the GOP primary is former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, who joined the Hudson Institute as Walter P. Stern Chair.
