The afternoon hour on Fox News Channel’s lineup that previously belonged to Shepard Smith now will be anchored by Bill Hemmer, the network announced Monday.
“Recently I asked the company to allow me to leave Fox News and begin a new chapter,” Smith later said in a statement at the time.
Hemmer’s 3 pm show, titled Bill Hemmer Reports, will premiere on Monday, Jan. 20.
He currently co-hosts America’s Newsroom with Sandra Smith from noon to 3 pm on weekdays.
