Evening News for Fox?

After the recent report that Shephard Smith signed a mega deal with Fox News rumoured to be worth around $7 million, speculation has started to build again about a news broadcast on the Fox broadcasting network.

Fox has had lots of trouble with news programmes on the broadcast network. The current morning programme, The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet is the latest in a long line of attempts stretching back to Fox After Breakfast and Good Day Live. The last attempt at an evening news programme, Geraldo At Large, got axed from Fox Broadcasting and reappeared on Fox News Channel. It too was the latest in a long line of failed attempts.

My suspicion is that they will eventually simulcast The Fox Report with Shepherd Smith, which does present itself somewhat differently than other FNC shows. We'll wait and see.
