On Tuesday morning, Fox News will gather dozens of its top advertisers in the studio that normally houses Greg Gutfeld’s 11 p.m. show.
Amid a tumultuous news environment (between a potential indictment of Donald Trump, concerns over bank failures, and a variety of headlines about Fox News itself tied to the defamation lawsuit from Dominion Voting Systems), the conservative cable news channel will host its upfront presentation, pitching advertisers on why they should be spending their hard-earned dollars with Fox.
While Fox News is a dominant player in cable TV (it was the most-watched cable channel in total viewers last year, beating ESPN by nearly half a million viewers), cable news, with its older audience and occasionally polarizing programming, has not historically been a priority for major brand advertisers (and that’s before considering recent headlines).

Fox News anchor Neil Cavuto said that he has tested positive for Covid-19.
In a statement Tuesday, Cavuto encouraged people to get vaccinated.
“While I’m somewhat stunned by this news, doctors tell me I’m lucky as well,” he said. “Had I not been vaccinated, and with all my medical issues, this would be a far more dire situation. It’s not, because I did and I’m surviving this because I did. I hope anyone and everyone gets that message loud and clear. Get vaccinated, for yourself and everyone around you. Everyone wins, except maybe my wife, who thought I was back in the city for good for live shows. Maybe not so fast now.”
Jackie DeAngelis filled in for Cavuto on Fox Business’ Cavuto Coast to Coast, while Charles Payne anchored Fox News’ Your World.
Cavuto is a cancer survivor who also has multiple sclerosis. Earlier on Tuesday,...

Fox News has canceled Lou Dobbs’ Fox Business show, Lou Dobbs Tonight, and will replace him with a rotating group of hosts.
Dobbs, one of Donald Trump’s steadfast defenders, was among the defendants named in election systems company Smartmatic’s $2.7 billion defamation lawsuit filed on Thursday against Fox Corp. The lawsuit claims that Dobbs, Maria Bartiromo and Judge Jeanine Pirro, along with guests Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani, spread falsehoods that the company rigged the results of the 2020 presidential election.
A Fox News spokesperson said of Dobbs’ cancellation, “As we said in October, Fox News Media regularly considers programming changes and plans have been in place to launch new formats as appropriate post-election, including on Fox Business – this is part of those planned changes. A new 5 Pm program will be announced in the near future.”
