Fox News Media announced her addition as part of an expanding lineup of younger, right-leaning voices.
The company operates cable networks Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network, as well as streaming services like Fox Nation.
Though Cooper wasn’t hired solely to attract a new demographic, insiders believe her Gen Z following could help pull in younger viewers, The Daily Mail reported.

As per a Morning Consult poll, only about 30 percent of Gen Z regularly watch broadcast or cable news, according to polling.
