Matt Napolitano, an anchor and reporter for Fox News Audio, died Dec. 23 in New York City after a short illness. He was 33.

Napolitano had been with Fox News since 2015, starting out as a writer for its Sirius XM channel, Fox News Headlines 24/7. He quickly advanced to serving as a sports reporter for the channel. He left the company for a short period but returned last year for the launch of Fox Audio.

Napolitano worked an anchor and reporter, writing and producing segments for all Fox News audio platforms. He contributed sports-related coverage for Fox Business Network's "Cavuto Coast to Coast" weekday series anchored by Neil Cavuto. He also did voice work for the Fox News Edge service that delivers news coverage and content packages to Fox affiliate stations around the country.

Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott praised his Napolitano for being resourceful and enterprising as a journalist.

"Matt did everything from anchoring to writing and producing for our audio platforms and loved being able to work in the journalism field that he trained for his entire life," Scott wrote in a memo sent Dec. 24 to Fox News employees.
