Since leaving the White House, Perino became a political commentator on Fox News.
She is a regular co-host on the talk show, The Five.
In November 2009, she was nominated by President Barack Obama to serve on the Broadcasting Board of Governors, an agency overseeing government-sponsored international broadcasting, and was confirmed by the Senate on June 30, 2010.
In 2010, she started teaching a class in political communications part-time at George Washington University's Graduate School of Political Management.
In March 2011 the Crown Publishing Group, a division of Random House, Inc., announced that Perino had joined its books imprint Crown Forum as Editorial Director but she has since left this position.

In 2015, she claimed that climate scientists had fabricated temperature data and that climate science was "fraud science"; Politifact rated her claim as "pants on fire".

On September 18, 2016, Perino's podcast Perino & Stirewalt: I'll Tell You What, co-hosted with Chris Stirewalt, premiered as a weekly limited series on the Fox News Channel.
A new "I'll Tell You What" is released late Wednesday night of each week.
