Fox Network programming

Fox News Channel acts as the de facto news division of the Fox broadcast network, providing coverage of major breaking news and select live events, such as the State of the Union speech. The network also manages Fox News Edge, a distribution service of footage and reports for local Fox affiliates' news broadcasts.

In addition to news coverage, the network produces "Fox News Sunday," a Sunday morning talk shows featuring interviews with national leaders in politics and public life, hosted by Chris Wallace. The network also produces "The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet," a syndicated morning program featuring celebrity interviews, a live studio audience, and segments relating to viewers, hosted by past-DaySide and Fox & Friends Weekend hosts, Juliet Huddy and Mike Jerrick.(Produced by FNC's sister division 20th Television).

Since the original launch of FNC, the network has tried multiple times to produce newsmagazine programs for the network. Some of these programs have been canceled due to low ratings, including "Fox Files", "The Pulse", and "Geraldo at Large" (which moved to FNC in February 2007). But others, like Hannity's America, continue to thrive. Bill O'Reilly has said he considers his top rated show - The O'Reilly Factor to be in the format of a newsmagazine. He points to the inclusion of regular features such as 'Pinheads & Patriots' and the weekly 'The Great American Culture Quiz', which has very little to do with politics, to bolster his point.
