Bream to be host of Fox News Sunday

The Washington Examiner

Longtime Fox News anchor Shannon Bream is taking over Chris Wallace’s former role as the host of Fox News Sunday. Bream received the highest ratings of all fill-in hosts. Fox News reported that Bream “overdelivered the 2021 average of the show by 20%” when she hosted and drew in members of the ever-important age 25-54 demographic.

She will begin hosting the program regularly on Sept. 11, according to Fox.

Bream will make history, becoming the first woman to anchor the program in its 26-year run.

“It has been an honor to cover major news throughout Washington over the last 15 years at Fox News,” Bream said in a statement. “I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to host a Sunday show and look forward to this new role.”

This announcement leaves Bream’s current program, Fox News @ Night, which she has hosted since 2017, without a host. The channel will cycle fill-in hosts on the show until a permanent replacement is found.

Wallace departed the program last year in favor of CNN, where he landed a gig hosting a show on the ill-fated CNN+ streaming platform, which was canceled shortly after it began. He will now reportedly host a Sunday evening program beginning this fall on CNN.
