Corey Lewandowski—Donald Trump’s former campaign manager who bruised a female political reporter, lied about it, got fired, then landed a cushy CNN commentator gig that he quickly ditched after Trump became president-elect—has a new job as a political commentator at One America News Network (OANN), a relatively new conservative news channel based out of San Diego, Calif. (Daily Beast)
In December, Lewandowski announced the opening of a D.C. consulting firm with Trump campaign adviser Barry Bennett. Previously, Lewandowski had been a contributor on CNN, but he resigned days after the election in November. (HuffPost)
Lewandowski, who was fired from the Trump campaign in June, a few months after he grabbed then-Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields at a campaign event, reportedly began working at the network earlier this month. It is not clear whether OANN’s deal with Lewandowski is exclusive, or whether he is being paid by the company. (Politico / On Media)
