"Newsmax's consistently strong numbers during the day and especially at the 7 p.m. ET slot has caused panic at Fox, which rarely makes lineup changes," Newsmax said in a statement Monday, adding with a wink, "The Fox is on the run."

MacCallum's "The Story" had long been the #1 cable news show in the 7 p.m. time slot, until Newsmax TV's "Greg Kelly Reports" began a ratings surge in recent months.

In the old days, I liked MacCallum a lot.

Haven’t seen her in years.

FoxNews lost it’s audience.

Wasn’t that hard to figure out either.

Martha. . .be sure to swap ‘woes-me’ and ‘what happened’ stories with Megyn as you ride the black train into oblivion.

MacCallum will be moved to the 3 p.m. spot and replaced by new show “FOX News Primetime” with hosts to be announced. The changes will debut on Jan. 18.

Other changes include that Harris Faulkner will no longer host “Outnumbered Overtime” at 1 p.m., but will host a new show, “The Faulkner Focus,” at 11 a.m.

The wench can go flip burgers.

“Chief White House Correspondent John Roberts is moving to the studio as co-anchor of a new two-hour program with Sandra Smith”.

This show with Smith is going to implode, as well.

They could get rid of Chris Wallace, Bret Baier, and Christ Stirwalt and improve their chances.

So satisfying to hear that Fox ratings are getting so thoroughly TRASHED - and that disgusting, arrogant WENCH has seen her best days.

Someone should find the b***h and shave her head - like the Belgians did to their Nazi whores.

It’s like shuffling around patio chairs on the Titanic. A pox on Fox.
