Who is Trish Regan?
Trish Regan is an American journalist and talk show host probably best known for her shows like “The Intelligence Report with Trish Regan” and “Trish Regan Primetime”. Journalism is not her cup of coffee during her school or college days as she was quite obsessed with singing and even took music lessons so that she’d pursue that line of career. With a degree in History from Columbia University, Trish joined the CBS Marketwatch as a business correspondent. After spending seven years with CBS, she moved on to CNBC and worked for Bloomberg, Fox Business Network and Fox News Channel down the line of her career. She made headlines in March 2020 when she dismissed the coronavirus pandemic as a Democratic “impeachment scam” against President Trump. Following the controversy and widespread criticism, the Fox Business Network cut all ties with her.
