    Elisabeth Hasselbeck is jumping networks.

    The conservative co-host of ABC's “The View” is moving over toFox News Channel to co-host its morning show “Fox & Friends.”

    Today will be her last day on the ABC yakfest, according to the network.

    The BC alum will replace Fox’s Gretchen Carlson, who is getting her own show on the channel.

    For months, speculation has run rampant that Hasselbeck, 36, was being pushed out of "The View" after a decade because of her rampant unpopularity with viewers.

    In March, host Barbara Walters vehemently denied the rumor and said Hasselbeck had been signed to a long-term contract.

    In a statement yesterday, Hasselbeck said, “I have been a longtime fan of ‘Fox & Friends,’ and am excited to be joining their team in September as it is an honor to call the Fox News Channel my new television home.”
