“Special Report,” host Bret Baier passed along the message from the syndicated columnist after the re-airing of a Krauthammer’s life story documentary produced by Fox News.
In the statement, Krauthammer said, “This being my first ‘vacation’ from Fox since I began there years ago, I should be enjoying the layoff, except for the fact that I have to work hard — my doctors compare it to marathon training — to offset the debilitating effects of the surgery. I watch the show just about every night and it is consistently splendid: the best newscast on television. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I’ll be back as soon as I can!”
Krauthammer became paralyzed below the waist in a diving accident while he attended Harvard Medical School as a young man. He later put psychiatry on pause to explore journalism, eventually winning a Pulitzer Prize 1987. source
