The King of Late-Night is staying put. Greg Gutfeld has signed a multi-year extension to remain with Fox News.
In a statement, Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott sang the praises of the 10 PM ET host and shared her excitement that Gutfeld would remain with the cable network.
“Greg is a true original whose trademark political and cultural commentary, humor and gifted writing has deeply connected and grown with our audience for more than 17 years. Upon launching Gutfeld! three years ago, he rapidly disrupted the status quo to become the most-watched host in the genre with more viewers tuning in to his show than any other late-night program on television,” said Scott. “We are proud to be the home of Greg, his unparalleled analysis and late-night’s highest-rated program for many years to come.”
“Since joining the network in 2007, FOX News has given me the freedom to be unabashedly myself and, in turn, deliver a distinct experience for our audience,” Gutfeld added. “There aren’t many platforms that allow this type of creative independence and I’m proud to be a part of Suzanne’s team.”
Gutfeld! will celebrate its third anniversary on Friday, and has celebrated ratings gains in the process. Since its debut, the program has seen a nearly 50% rise in viewership, and was the top cable news program among the 25-54 demographic during the first quarter of 2024.
