Shannon Bream: Last News

Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor A pre-game interview with the President of the United States before the Super Bowl, a modern tradition that has become less reliable in recent years, is back on, at least for 2025. Bret Baier will interview President Donald Trump on Sunday, February 9, in the hours ahead of Fox’s broadcast of Super Bowl LIX. The agreement marks a rebound of sorts for Fox, which was unable to come to terms with the Biden administration for a similar conversation in 2023 for Super Bowl LVII.

Fox News was carrying Donald Trump‘s rally in Butler, PA, live at 6:11 p.m. ET when suddenly, chaos ensued as the former president grabbed his ear, then plunged to the ground and Secret Service pounced on top of him for protection.

The White House is continuing a tradition of hosting major network TV news anchors for a lunch with the president on the day he delivers the State of the Union address, according to sources.

President Biden's Secretary of Transportation and economic advisers were pressed on inflation and the state of the economy ahead of the midterm elections on Sunday.  CNN's Dana Bash asked Council of Economic Advisers Chair Cecilia Rouse about the September inflation report and the president's reaction to the numbers during "State of the Union" on Sunday. "The price of food is part of our inflation challenge," Rouse said.

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Sunday categorized President Biden’s quickly notorious Armageddon comment regarding the nuclear risk posed by Russia as "reckless" and demonstrating "maybe one of the greatest foreign policy failures of the last decades."  "Oh my goodness.

Trace Gallagher has been named the permanent anchor of Fox News @ Night, Fox News Channel’s midnight ET newscast.

Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor Fox News Channel named veteran Trace Gallagher to anchor its “Fox News @ Night,” a late-night entry that aims to deliver end-of-the-day reports to the network’s West Coast audience. Gallagher will take over the nightly newscast on October 3, holding forth from Fox News’ Los Angeles bureau, and will continue to serve as the cable-news outlets chief correspondent for breaking news. He replaces Shannon Bream, who launched the wee-hours news entry in 2017, originally at 11 p.m. She has moved on to take the reins at the network’s “Fox News Sunday.” “When it comes to breaking news coverage, Trace Gallagher is one of the best in the business and having a seasoned journalist at the helm of this hour ensures our viewers unrivaled 24/7 news coverage,” said Suzanne Scott, CEO of Fox News Media, in a prepared statement.

Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor Shannon Bream first tried her hand at journalism at the age of 30 after having earned a law degree. Some of the people working with her called her “Grandma Intern.” They won’t be calling her that on Sunday. Bream will this weekend kick off a new era on “Fox News Sunday,” the jewel of the news side at Fox News Channel, which often gets more attention for its opinion programming. She will be the programs’ first permanent female host and will be the first permanent replacement for Chris Wallace, who burnished his reputation for prosecutorial questioning of newsmakers and politicians over a tenure that lasted just under two decades. Wallace raised eyebrows in late 2021, when he announced on air he was leaving the show. He later disclosed he had jumped to CNN, where he is slated to host a new program for both HBO Max and CNN’s Sunday schedule.

Fox News Channel said it would pull repeats off the air during overnight hours to present continuous live coverage of the national response to the spread of coronavirus, adding four new hours of live content and dedicated hosts starting Monday, March 16.
