Shannon Bream first tried her hand at journalism at the age of 30 after having earned a law degree. Some of the people working with her called her “Grandma Intern.” They won’t be calling her that on Sunday.
Bream will this weekend kick off a new era on “Fox News Sunday,” the jewel of the news side at Fox News Channel, which often gets more attention for its opinion programming. She will be the programs’ first permanent female host and will be the first permanent replacement for Chris Wallace, who burnished his reputation for prosecutorial questioning of newsmakers and politicians over a tenure that lasted just under two decades. Wallace raised eyebrows in late 2021, when he announced on air he was leaving the show. He later disclosed he had jumped to CNN, where he is slated to host a new program for both HBO Max and CNN’s Sunday schedule.

Megan Thee Stallion is turning heads at The Pynk in "P-Valley" season two. Following the premiere of the second season on June 3, Starz revealed that Stallion will make a special guest appearance as Tina Snow, a character inspired by her alter ego, later this season. In first-look photos of Snow shared on Monday, Stallion is decked out in diamonds and fur, but fans who caught the second episode on June 12 might have a leg up on what to expect from the Grammy winner's new character.
During "Seven Pounds of Pressure," DJ Neva Scared (Brandon Gilpin) turns down Lil' Murda's (J. Alphonse Nicholson) offer to join the Dirty Dozen tour because he's busy recording with another artist in Atlanta. From the distance, we hear the artist, voiced by Stallion, say, "Run that beat back for a real b*tch," giving golden-eared fans a heads up about her upcoming appearance on the show.

Chris Wallace is leaving Fox News Channel, he announced on his program Sunday morning, and will join the CNN Plus streaming-video outlet, a move that abruptly sunders the cable-news outlet’s connection with one of its most recognized and independent journalists.
Wallace delivered the news himself, in the last minutes of his “Fox News Sunday,” which he has anchored for nearly two decades on the Fox Corporation-owned outlet. “I want to try something new, to go beyond politics to all the things I’m interested in. I’m ready for a new adventure. And I hope you’ll check it out,” said Wallace. The words will be the last he utters on the program.
CNN confirmed Wallace’s jump less than two hours after he announced his departure, and said he would lead a daily show during which he would interview newsmakers from the worlds of politics, business, sports and culture.

Incoming "Late Show" host Stephen Colbert was on "Howard Stern" this morning to discuss his new late-night gig, his career trajectory, his tragic family history, his infamous White House Correspondents stint and even Donald Trump, among numerous other things. Typical of a "Stern" sit-down, the interview was long and most importantly revealing, providing listeners a window into what makes the former "Colbert Report" host tick. Below I've rounded up the 19 most essential moments from the interview, from a discussion of his brief stint as a cast member on the doomed "Dana Carvey Show" in the mid '90s to what effect the tragic death of his father and two of his brothers had on his life and career. Check out the full roundup below. (Relevant clips included where available.) 1. Jim Carrey was supposed to play Ace in an "Ambiguously Gay Duo" live-action movie.

Currently in a rebuilding phase after a precipitous slide from its former dominance of the cable-news world, CNN has been adding new on-air talent, such as former ABC News correspondent Jake Tapper, and is also reaching back into its past.
Last week, CNN revived the current-events/debate program "Crossfire," blending a long-running format with a roster of new faces. The daily 30-minute show features two hosts and guests each night, with the co-hosts also appearing across other CNN programming.
From 1982 until 2005, "Crossfire" was a mainstay of the network's daytime lineup, examining the news from the points of view of a politically liberal and a conservative pundit.
The first pairing was journalist and author Tom Braden ("Eight Is Enough") on the liberal side, and commentator, politician and broadcaster Pat Buchanan, as the conservative.
Later rosters for both the daytime show and a Sunday edition included Robert Novak, John Sununu, Tony Snow,...

On Wednesday, July 11, Fox News Channel's afternoon roundtable show "The Five" turns one year old, marking the occasion with a cake and some impressive numbers.
Intended as a temporary summer replacement in the former timeslot of "The Glenn Beck Show," the 5 p.m. Et hour -- featuring rotating regular panelists Eric Bolling, Bob Beckel, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Andrea Tantaros, Dana Perino and Greg Gutfeld, and occasional guests Juan Williams and Brian Kilmeade -- has increased total viewership by 15 percent, and upped the key 25-54 demo by 5 percent, and has, according to Fnc, gone into the black financially.
It also represented a big life change for 40-year-old Colorado native Perino.
She came to prominence as the first Republican woman to serve as a presidential press secretary, after she stepped in for Tony Snow when illness forced him to bow out of the job in the second Bush administration. Perino served in the position from Sept.

Obama's new press secretary doesn't report directly to the president. Lloyd Grove talks to alumni of the office and longtime White House reporters about the limits on Jay Carney's clout.
When Jay Carney takes over from Robert Gibbs as President Obama's chief spokesman this month, it might become a case of "be careful what you wish for" for White House beat reporters.

Carney certainly has friends in the press room-but does he have clout in the West Wing?
Time magazine's former Washington bureau chief, 45, spent two decades as a journalist before joining the administration two years ago as Vice President Biden's communications director, and is expected to be far more responsive to the needs of his erstwhile colleagues than the sometimes flippant Gibbs. The 39-year-old Gibbs, a trusted Obama confidant since the latter's 2004 Senate race,...

To get a sense of the challenge facing Jay Carney as he steps behind the White House podium, consider this:
Related story on The Daily Beast: Will Carney's Voice Carry?
In the early months of the administration, a Washington Post editorial accused Joe Biden of having "foot-in-mouth disease." New York Times columnist Gail Collins called him "Washington's most compulsive talker." And who can forget when the vice president of the United States, pushing the new stimulus package, said that no matter what the administration did "there's still a 30 percent chance we're going to get it wrong" ?
Biden had become a punchline. But by the fall, Newsweek was running a cover story headlined, "Why Joe Is No Joke."

The former presidential candidate's wife passed away Tuesday afternoon at the age of 61. Jonathan Alter on how she lived-and the conversation he had with her about the cancer that eventually claimed her.
On Monday, a friend of the Edwards family called me from their home in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. She said that Elizabeth Edwards wanted me to know that the doctors had stopped treatment and the end was very near. Elizabeth, whose condition began deteriorating rapidly in October, was in hospice and her family (including daughter Cate and estranged husband John) had been summoned home. I wasn't a close friend. I hadn't favored John Edwards for president in 2008. But I am a cancer survivor and in 2007 Elizabeth and I had bonded, as so many survivors do.
Cancer is a foreign country, a mere place on a scary map to those who haven't lived there. I was lucky enough to return home.

It’s a great time to be an Oscar fan. Another olive branch was extended to the public and for the first time we were all treated to the 82nd Annual Academy Awards Nominee Lunch which was shown LIVE earlier today from the Beverly Hilton Hotel. As you can see up above, 120 Nominees were present at the celebration.
It all began with a Q & A of the nominees in a press room type set-up. First was Precious Best Actress Nominee, Gabourey Sidibe, who greeted the crowd by saying, “Stand When You Clap For Me”. How funny. She went on to say, with a giggle, that this year’s Oscar co-host, Steve Martin, was the one person she wanted to meet. She and her Mom are huge fans of The Jerk.

Best Actress Nominee, and current front-runner, Sandra Bullock followed, looking very relaxed in a fitted Vivienne Westwood suit.

New York -- The war in Iraq may seem like it's mostly out of the headlines these days, but it was on the minds of the voters Monday night at the News and Documentary Emmys.
Stories about wounded veterans and their plight back home, a Marine veteran who videotaped the war in Iraq, the battle to get body armor on more troops and family members from an infantry unit of the Iowa National Guard serving together were honored. A "Bill Moyers Journal" about how the Iraq war was marketed and the annual "Iraq: Where Things Stand" on ABC News also won.
PBS by far led the networks and "60 Minutes" was tops among programs as winners of Monday night's News and Documentary Emmys.
PBS won 10 awards, including best documentary for the Independent Lens production, "Billy Strahorn: Lush Life." CBS took home five, including three for "60 Minutes" and two for "Sunday Morning.

Olbermann released a statement after Snow's death Saturday, calling him "optimistic, funny and courageous . . . While we could not have disagreed more on policy, we were in frequent contact, even during his days as Press Secretary." But a true friend of Snow's says...

New York -- Former Fox News Channel analyst and White House press secretary Tony Snow died Saturday in Washington, D.C. He was 53.
Snow was a Fox News Channel host and syndicated columnist when he was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2005, eventually having his colon removed and undergoing chemotherapy. The cancer went into remission, and Snow became President Bush's press secretary, where he worked until September 2007.
The cancer returned soon afterward, this time to his liver and abdomen. But Snow said he left the White House not because of his illness but instead to earn a living for his family. He joined CNN in April as an analyst but almost immediately was been hospitalized in Washington State for exhaustion.
Snow had been a speechwriter for President George H.W. Bush, the first host of "Fox News Sunday," a radio talk-show host and a syndicated newspaper columnist. He also filled in occasionally for Rush Limbaugh on his radio talk show.
"Laura and I are deeply saddened by the death of our dear friend, Tony Snow," said President George W. Bush in a statement released Saturday from Camp David. "The Snow family has lost a beloved husband and father, and America has lost a devoted public servant and a man of character."
Fox News chairman Roger Ailes had known Snow in Washington, and then when it came time to start the news channel, the commentator was a natural.
"I always thought he was a great communicator, and what people don't know about Tony is that he was a genuine intellectual. He had traveled, he understood a lot about foreign policy, he was a writer," Ailes said on Fox News on Saturday. "He was a very deep thinker. On top of that, he played in a rock band, and sometimes did things you didn't expect of him. So he was a renaissance man in a sense."
The Cincinnati native began writing editorials for newspapers in the South after his graduation from Davidson College in 1977 and became editorial page editor of the Washington Times in 1997. He became a speechwriter for President George H.W. Bush in 1991 but later returned to journalism as a syndicated columnist and to Fox News in the mid-1990s. He hosted "Fox News Sunday," which was Fox News' first program, from 1996-2003.
"This is not only a death in the family to us at Fox, it's also a death in the family to Fox viewers," said the current host, Chris Wallace, on the channel Saturday morning.
As a columnist, radio and TV host, there was no doubt about his conservative beliefs. But he also was charming and a natural for TV, something that served him well in broadcasting as well as in his later job as press secretary.
"He demonstrated that the political process does not have to be mean and ugly," former President George H.W. Bush said on "Fox & Friends" on Saturday morning. "I think people respected that."
Fox News chief Washington correspondent Jim Angle remembered Saturday that in an environment where reporters go into the White House press room "throwing rocks at the press secretary," Snow was not only not cowed behind the podium but willing to joust with reporters.
"For him, it was like a salon where you were discussing policies and ideas and coming to an understanding rather than battling with them over some fact," Angle said. He said Snow was one of the best press secretaries ever.
Snow worked at CNN for two stints, once before coming Fox News when he was a substitute co-host of "Crossfire" and then again beginning in April as a political contributor.
"He loved this country and its people and was looking forward to getting out into America to listen to their stories and share them with the rest of us," CNN president Jon Klein said. "It is all of our loss that he never got the chance to do so."
Born Robert Anthony Snow on June 1, 1955, in Berea, Ky., he was raised in Cincinnati. He is survived by his wife of 21 years, Jill Ellen Walker, and three children.

Snow, who had been undergoing chemotherapy treatments for a recurrence of the disease, which he spoke to People in May 2007 about, served as press secretary from May 2006 to September 14, 2007.

Whether Tony Snow was at the helm of the White House press corps or spending time with those close to him, friends and colleagues of the former White House press secretary, who died Saturday from cancer, recall a dedicated "natural communicator," full of vitality and a love for his family. "He made things go right – he made it fun," Greta Van Susteren – who had known Snow since the '80s – tells People. "On my first day, when I showed up at Fox, it was daunting being new at a job. Tony came in, he dropped his body in the couch across from me.

NEW YORK -- The White House made it official Wednesday, installing Fox News analyst/radio host Tony Snow as its new press secretary. It's one of a number of changes made at the White House in recent weeks, including the hiring of new chief of staff Joshua Bolten and the departure of White House press secretary Scott McClellan. Snow will begin the job May 8, though it's likely that McClellan and Snow would be working together at least for a little while. The conservative commentator has been critical of the Bush administration in the past, though Bush didn't seem to be bothered by it at a news conference announcing Snow in Washington on Wednesday morning. Snow also has previous White House experience, serving as a speechwriter in the George H.W. Bush administration and then as a media adviser to the president.
