Fox’s Gutfeld Updates Viewers on Bob Beckel’s Recovery

For weeks now, The Five‘s liberal voice Bob Beckel has been absent from the Fox program, and at the very end of today’s show, Greg Gutfeld provided an update on how Beckel is doing.

A Fox News spokesperson told Mediaite weeks ago that Beckel was out receiving and recovering from back surgery. Beckel tweeted out a confirmation just days later:

Thanks for the thousands tweets and five face book. I am in physical therapy on my back hope to be back soon. Send me tweet if u miss me

On the air, Gutfeld said that Beckel had finally received major back surgery today. He assured viewers that Beckel is doing okay and he, along with the rest of the hosts, sent their best wishes Beckel’s way.
