Fox News is shaking up its weekend lineup in the wake of the departures of two hosts, Steve Hilton and Dan Bongino.
Bongino, who hosted a Saturday night show, left the network last month after the two parties couldn’t reach an agreement on terms. The departure of Hilton is equally un-dramatic: he’s leaving his 9 p.m. Sunday show to dedicate himself full-time to what Fox described as a “new California non-partisan policy organization launching next week.” He will remain with the network as a contributor.
In light of those departures, Fox announced a new lineup starting this weekend. The network is getting rid of The Big Saturday and Sunday Show to make way for The Big Weekend Show (talk about streamlining) which will air at 7 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. A new program called Fox News Saturday Night will air at 10 p.m. on, you guessed it, Saturday night.
Fox has been dealing with other changes in the wake of its devastating $787.5 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems over the promotion of 2020 election conspiracy theories. The network ousted its biggest star, Tucker Carlson, and has been quietly laying off staff.
More staffing cuts hit the network this week. Mediaite learned that as part of the belt-tightening Fox let go of its senior correspondent Laura Ingle, who has been with the network since 2005.

Never watched him for more than a few minutes. Guy looks like a pedo and we don’t need any more Brits in our politics.
Time to collect all the Fox Canned people and start a rival cable channel (if that would even be permitted at this stage of the game). I never liked the transplanted Brit but he spoke the Truth. Hannity is the Next to go. Maybe they could Hire Don Lemon to do his show—they need more people of color. Maybe Geraldo can take over Tucker’s old slot. Go woke—Go Broke. Take the left offramp to Bank rupture City.
Deck chairs…
“The future is streaming.”
Fox News: “America is streaming”
Big money for wifi carriers.
Streaming is a $ scam.
“My wife was a fan of Justice With Judge Jeanine and was very upset when it was gone.”
Me too.
Too outspoken and conservative.
I miss her and Bongino.
I can’t stand listening to Hilton.
He was always telking about people wearing “Mosques”
I watched Trumps arrival at the airport on Newsmax.
The male host hogged all the time and wouldn’t let the lady host ever break in.
(Like the way Joe treated Mika until they started “dating”)
They need to be more professional.
