The former White House Press Secretary, who served as communications director in Donald Trump's administration until mid-2017, will have his own talk show.
Sean Spicer will create a program titled "Sean Spicer's Common Ground." The main concept is for the host to hold informal conversations with guests on current topics.
It is worth noting, however, that for now the talk show is only in the pilot preparation stage, and Sean Spicer has no contract with any television network.
Sean Spicer at the White House
Sean Spicer took on the role of White House Press Secretary at the end of December 2016, and just two days later became communications director, right after Jason Miller resigned from that position.
Spicer, as a spokesman for Donald Trump's administration, did not last long, however. In July 2017, he left his position because he disagreed with the hiring of Anthony Scaramucci as White House communications director.
Premiere of "Sean Spicer's Common Ground"
According to information reported in "The New York Times," Sean Spicer has begun preparations to produce his own television program. It will be a talk show titled "Sean Spicer's Common Ground," in which Spicer will hold conversations with invited guests. Pubs and restaurants have been chosen as the setting, where the host is to conduct conversations on current topics of interest to Americans with people considered important and interesting by viewers.
The pilot episode of "Sean Spicer's Common Ground" is set to launch in early July 2018, in cooperation with two companies - Debmar-Mercury and Pilgrim Media.
