Fox News Channel is shaking up its weekend programming in a significant way, announcing a revamped lineup that features new shows, new hosts, and the cancellation of a long-running staple. Beginning Saturday, September 20, viewers will see a fresh slate of personalities and programs designed to reinforce Fox News Media’s commitment to “delivering incomparable coverage,” according to network executives.

Kayleigh McEnany Steps Into the Spotlight

One of the most notable changes is the debut of “Saturday in America,” hosted by Kayleigh McEnany. The former White House press secretary and current co-host of Fox’s weekday hit “Outnumbered” will now helm her own show every Saturday at 10 a.m. ET. “Saturday in America” promises to deliver a comprehensive look at the biggest headlines dominating the news cycle, featuring in-depth conversations with key newsmakers from across the political spectrum.

McEnany is expected to bring her signature energy and perspective to the new program while continuing her role on “Outnumbered” during the week. Her elevation to solo host status is seen as a vote of confidence in her ability to engage viewers and tackle the most pressing issues of the day.

Introducing ‘The Sunday Briefing’ With Doocy and Heinrich

On Sundays, Fox News will launch “The Sunday Briefing” at 11 a.m. ET, anchored by senior White House correspondents Peter Doocy and Jacqui Heinrich. The two will rotate as weekly solo anchors, bringing their extensive experience covering both the Biden and Trump administrations to the new program. “The Sunday Briefing” will focus on all facets of the White House beat, including national and international developments and the key issues affecting the current administration.

Doocy and Heinrich are well-known to Fox News viewers for their sharp reporting and ability to break down complex political stories. Their new platform is expected to provide viewers with a deeper understanding of the latest moves from Washington.

Griff Jenkins Joins ‘FOX & Friends Weekend’

Another notable change is the addition of Griff Jenkins as the third co-host of “FOX & Friends Weekend,” joining Rachel Campos-Duffy and Charlie Hurt. Jenkins, a familiar face to Fox News audiences, brings years of reporting experience and a dynamic presence to the popular morning show.

‘The Big Weekend Show’ Expands and Adds New Co-Hosts

“The Big Weekend Show,” Fox News’ ensemble program, will expand to three hours on both Saturdays and Sundays at 5 p.m. ET. Johnny Joey Jones and Tomi Lahren have been named two of the four co-hosts, joining the growing roster of personalities. The expansion is part of Fox News’ strategy to offer viewers more in-depth discussions and a wider range of viewpoints during the weekend.

MediaBuzz Canceled After 12 Years; Howie Kurtz Takes on New Role

In a surprising move, Fox News is canceling “MediaBuzz” after a 12-year run. Host Howie Kurtz, who has been the network’s lead authority on media coverage in cable news, will step down from his hosting duties and transition into a new role as political media analyst. “MediaBuzz” will air its final episode on Sunday, September 14, ending its tenure as the number-one show in its timeslot.

Kurtz will continue to provide his signature analysis and reporting across all Fox News Media platforms, including hosting the “Media BuzzMeter” podcast and contributing to Fox News Digital. “I’m extraordinarily proud of the program, which was number one for over 12 years and built a loyal audience that liked our down-the-middle approach of contrasting viewpoints and tackling sensitive subjects, with great independence, but time marches on,” Kurtz said.

A Commitment to Innovation and Depth

Fox News Media President & Editor-in-Chief Jay Wallace emphasized that these changes reflect the network’s ongoing commitment to innovation and depth in its coverage. “This new dynamic roster underscores our continued commitment to delivering incomparable coverage, reinforcing FOX News Media as the leader in both news and opinion content,” Wallace said.

As Fox News enters this new era of weekend programming, viewers can expect a broader array of perspectives, more comprehensive analysis, and a renewed focus on the issues shaping America and the world. The full picture of the revamped lineup is only now coming into focus, but it’s clear that Fox News is betting big on its high-profile talent and fresh programming to maintain its leadership in cable news.
