More Information

Fox News Sunday w/ Chris Wallace is a public affairs magazine on the FOX network, airing on Sunday mornings. The show began on April 28, 1996, which predated the launch of Fox News Channel, and usually talks about items similar to Sunday morning talk shows. The program is broadcast on the Fox network at 9:00 AM ET (although many stations broadcast it later) and is re-broadcast Sunday evening on Fox News Channel at 2:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. ET (in the slot typically occupied by Special Report with Bret Baier on the weekdays). The show is also broadcast in SDTV widescreen when it is shown first on the Fox Network if digital broadcasting is available for the Fox affiliate. Since August 2008, the show airs in high definition.

The first minute or so of the broadcast runs down the day's headlines (Fox, unlike its competitors, does not have a full morning show to lead into Fox News Sunday, as this is the only regularly-scheduled news program produced for the Fox network). For the rest of the first half of the show, Wallace interviews newsmakers from the prior week. During the second half of the show, Wallace introduces a panel of four pundits to speak about the political impact of the news. Regular members of the panel include Brit Hume, Weekly Standard editor William Kristol and National Public Radio correspondents Mara Liasson and Juan Williams. Columnists Charles Krauthammer and Fred Barnes, Fortune Washington bureau chief Nina Easton, FOX News Washington deputy managing editor Bill Sammon and Washington Post reporter Ceci Connelly also appear on the panel on a limited basis.

Originally hosted through 2003 by Tony Snow, who later became White House Press Secretary, the program celebrated its tenth anniversary in April 2006.

Overall, the program has been the second-lowest rated of the big five Sunday talk shows (ahead of only the now-canceled Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer) due in part to the fact that the show does not have the benefit of a lead-in like its competitors; however, it is popular in Washington, D.C., its prime time replay on Fox News Channel frequently wins its time slot among cable news outlets and the viewership of the FNC replay often approaches the number of viewers who watch it first-run on the FOX network.

The program is also rebroadcast on a small but growing number of radio affiliates, mostly owned by Clear Channel Communications, which is the largest station group running the division's Fox News Radio newscasts.
