Fox News Revamps Daytime Lineup: Martha MacCallum Moves To Afternoon, John Roberts Leaves White House Beat To Co-Anchor Role (Perino Demoted, too)
Deadline ^ | 1/11/2021 | Ted Johnson

Posted on 01/11/2021 9:06:46 AM PST by marcusmaximus

Fox News Channel unveiled an overhaul of its daytime lineup on Monday, including the switch of Martha MacCallum’s The Story from its 7 PM slot to 3 PM ET, while chief White House correspondent John Roberts will switch to a new role as co-anchor of a two hour newscast with Sandra Smith from 1 PM to 3 PM.

Meanwhile, Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino will switch to 9 AM ET when they will anchor a two-hour edition of America’s Newsroom, succeeding Smith. Hemmer originally was anchor on the newscast when it launched in 2007, and most recently hosted a 3 PM show. Perino has been hosting The Daily Briefing at 2 PM ET.

Harris Faulkner will move to 11 AM ET with The Faulkner Focus, followed by Outnumbered at noon.

The network said that it would launch a new opinion program in the 7 PM ET slot, with a rotating group of hosts for the time being and the show titled Fox News Primetime. Since the election, much has been made of the growth of Newsmax’s Greg Kelly Reports in that timeslot, as he has advanced Donald Trump’s claims of election fraud. It beat Fox News’ The Story in a key demo on Dec. 7, while MacCallum’s show saw audience erosion in the aftermath of the election.

Juggling deck chairs on the Titanic isn’t going to help these clowns.

Martha is on the exit ramp. They also took away her favorite makeup artist.

Faux News is on its way out anyway. Haven’t turned them on since election night and found out quickly that I didn’t miss them at all.

Why does re-arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic come to mind? I hope the results are the same 🙏

Dana Perino is as painful to watch as Juan and Harf.

Fire Chris Wallace - that would not be nearly enough to bring me back, but I’d take some satisfaction in it.
