On Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends” this morning, Geraldo Rivera once again brought up his comments regarding Trayvon Martin and “hoodies.”

Back in March, Rivera criticized parents who let their children go out wearing hooded sweatshirts, adding “I think the hoodie is as much responsible for Trayvon Martin‘s death as George Zimmerman was.”

He would apologize for the comment a few days later.

This morning, Rivera returned to the topic, saying “I was right about the hoodie wasn’t I.”

• James Rosen has re-signed his Fox News Channel contract, inking a multi-year deal that keeps him in his current role as chief Washington correspondent through the 2016 election. Rosen, who joined FNC in 1999, will also continue to host his online program, “The Foxhole.”

• Liz Claman is competing today in the New York City Triathlon today for the fourth time. Claman is participating this year with Fox News contributor Chris Hahn, and the pair will raise money for Building Homes for Heroes, a nonprofit that constructs homes for severely disabled veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

• Geraldo Rivera will host “Geraldo at Large” tonight from Jerusalem. For the special, which airs tonight at 10pmET, he went to Israeli army outposts along the Gaza strip.

Time flies, doesn’t it?

It was a year ago today that a Florida jury acquitted Casey Anthony in the death of her toddler daughter Caylee. Now, the lawyer who got her off has written a book about the case.

Jose Baez gave his first TV interview about “Presumed Guilty,” to Josh Elliott this morning on “Good Morning America” and he’ll give his first cable news interview to Greta Van Susteren tonight and continuing tomorrow night, on Fox News.

The Orlando’ Sentinel’s TV guy Hal Boedeker read the book and reveals the media angles in it.

On the issue of ABC News paying to license photos of Caylee, Baez writes, “In exchange for giving photos of Caylee and her to a national news organization, Casey was paid $200,000, most of which was used to mount her defense. Of course, when the media found out, she was roundly criticized for it — unfairly if you ask me.”

However, the media didn’t just “find out” about the payment, Anthony’s defense team brought it up in court way back in March 2010. And it wasn’t Anthony getting the brunt of it, it was ABC which has since changed it policy on paying license fees.

Baez adds, “without that money, we wouldn’t have been able to do a lot of the things we needed to do to fight her case.”

As for the media coverage, Baez says he and Fox News’s Geraldo Rivera have “a true friendship.” He calls Orlando ABC affiliate WFTV “the worst tabloid channel” and “a channel so inflammatory it was just a notch below ‘Nancy Grace.’” And as for Grace, he likens her show to professional wrestling, “where the action and drama are more important than truth or facts.”

Who says radio is dead? Former Fox News host Glenn Beck has re-signed with Premiere Radio Networks, while current Fox News anchor Geraldo Rivera is expanding his radio deal with Cumulus Media. Rivera has hosted “Geraldo” in New York and Los Angeles since earlier this year, and now Cumulus Media Networks is taking it national in advance of the November election.

“Despite the nation’s partisan divide, the success of the show on WABC and KABC is a clear indication that there is room in radio for someone who is not associated with a particular ideology,” Rivera says in a statement. “I’m a patriot and a pragmatic idealist, who believes both the political left and the right have contributions to make. I’ve also developed a comfortable enough relationship with the audience over the last four plus decades in television news for listeners in a spirited way to tell me when they think I’m full of beans. Like I say, ‘I’m not always right.’”

Beck, who also hosts a 9 AM- 12 PM show, has re-signed with Premiere Radio Networks,  a deal which the New York Times pegs at $100 million. Beck currently owns, operates and hosts a show on the web-TV network GBTV.

Mr. Beck’s show entered national syndication via Premiere, a unit of Clear Channel, 10 years ago. Now carried by more than 400 stations, the show typically ranks No. 3 among all news-talk radio shows, behind Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, so the contract extension brings a measure of stability to local stations that carry it.

And how did Glenn Beck get his first big break? He tells us:

Last week Geraldo Rivera issued an apology for claiming “the hoodie is as much responsible for Trayvon Martin‘s death as George Zimmerman is.” In an interview last night with Martin’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, the Fox News anchor personally apologized to the pair.

“I never intended to hurt anyone’s feelings, and certainly, Sybrina and Tracy, I never intended to hurt your feelings,” Rivera said. “I want to personally convey my deepest apologies to both of you. I am sorry if anything I said, Tracy, added to your misery.” Watch:
