Greta Van Susteren, who has hosted a top-rated evening program at Fox News for 14 years, is leaving the network.
The abrupt announcement today, in the middle of the presidential campaign, was coupled with word that Brit Hume, Fox’s senior political analyst and a former Washington managing editor, will take over as host of “On the Record” through the election.
Hume said he is “happy to take on this assignment for the balance of this extraordinary election. My Fox News colleagues have set a high standard for political coverage which I’ll do my best to uphold. I’m honored to be asked.”
Van Susteren, an attorney who hosted a legal show at CNN before joining Fox, has had a richly varied career, from interviewing presidential candidates to flying off to disaster zones such as Haiti, where she opened an orphanage and school named after her. The Wisconsin native has also been a forceful presence online, with her blog and with more than 1 million Twitter followers.
Bill Shine and Jack Abernethy, recently named co-presidents of Fox News, said in a joint statement: “We are grateful for Greta’s many contributions over the years and wish her continued success.” They also praised Hume as “one of the best political analysts in the industry” and “the ideal choice to host a nightly political program while the most dynamic and captivating election in recent history unfolds.”

I’d LOVE that!
HANNITY next...
MURDOCH IS PART OF THE NWO / GLOBAL CABAL
Greta wasn’t fired. Read the article in the fox news link, not just the excerpt.
So after fast forwarding the remote through and watching Outnumbered, I look on the clock...”Mmmm 1:02 They are running over today.”
I need a drink, or 2. LMAO!!
Although I don’t watch TV, I admit I enjoyed occasionally watching her on YouTube.
She was, is and will be a good reporter.
It seems plausible she is leaving because of the changes happening at Fox News.
Fox News continues the beginning of its decline.
Hume is a legend. They’ll do fine.
Hume is internationally known. Well dressed, etc. He’ll do well.
She sure was.
What activity is boring:
a) Watching paint dry
b) Watching grass grow
c) Watching Britt Hume
d) All the above
He may be a good guy, may be well qualified, may or may not be on our side... but bigtime YAWN. Fox should announce someone that will ATTRACT viewers.
Globalist pay many of them.
Fox Business: Varney and Company
Fox News: BOR and Hannity
That’s it.
He hates Trump. He used to be decent many years ago.
So far the whole thread only you and one other poster actually gets it right
It’s comedy
White House Communications Director for Trump.
But first we have to make him win.
There was a time when this site adored Hume and Fox News but those days are now in the past.
Greta refused to wear tight fitting, short, one color dresses.
Happening Now with Jon Scott and Jenna Lee is on at 10:00 AM CST and again at 12:00 PM CST and it been always like that. There was no program change.
Which activity is boring:
a) Watching paint dry
b) Watching grass grow
c) Watching Britt Hume
d) All the above
And yet Me-gyn looked at that hangdog face and said, “I want to get in his pants.” At least we can just click the remote.
You can watch the PMSNBC channel all you want. I’ll stick with Fox News the only channel that is truly fair and balanced.
Greta is 62 years old (I’m a few months younger than her).
Greta and I (and about 1,800 others) were sworn into the District of Columbia Bar at the DAR Constitution Hall on December 17, 1979. That makes me feel old.
She was raised Catholic and attended the same high school as football legend Rocky Bleier.
