The veteran journalist also recalled some health issues he has faced over the years, which have caused him to miss «a day or two, battling everything from multiple sclerosis and COVID to countless infections, even open-heart surgery».
«Maybe I’ve been unlucky in terms of health, but very lucky in terms of the support I have received here, and the things I have been able to do here, because I could do what I love to do — tell the news», Cavuto added. «Not shout the news. Not sensationalize the news. Not — well, name-call, just describe events, follow the news, adhere to truth and justice for all. That’s me».

Many viewers speculate that he may follow the path of his former colleague Chris Wallace, who left Fox after 18 years to work at CNN — although Wallace himself left CNN after just two years
