“In case you missed it: We’ve had a great 14 year run of daily shows, but it’s time to transition,” Press, 79, wrote to his more than 32,000 followers. “The last daily show will be May 31, but don’t worry! My voice will still front and center as we enter the 2020 election. Big news coming soon!”
Press, who is also an opinion contributor for The Hill, has been in broadcasting for more than 50 years. “The Bill Press Show” has been airing since 2005.
