What does the "G" in The G Block stand for?!! Anybody know?

I e-mailed Shepard Smith a few months ago, asking the same question (it was driving me nuts!). Here's his response to me:

Each show is broken down into blocks, or segments, and given a letter name. The G-Block is simply the entertainment segment, the 7th segment, toward the end of the show. One night I referred to it on the air by its off-air name, and it stuck.

Thanks for watching the Fox Report!

Thanks! I am glad to find out I am not the only one who wonders about this stuff. LOL!

I'm really glad someone knew the answer. You can always count on FR to get the facts!

I keep waiting for Shep to refer to the "G-block" as the "G-spot" - sort of like his J-Lo faux pas. ;-)

I love Shep, he's just a hoot.
