(SNews) – Fox News anchor Kayleigh McEnany is getting a shot as part of the rotating cast of hosts seeking to replace star host Tucker Carlson.
Fox News’s ratings have tanked across the board since the shocking firing of the network’s top-rated host.
In an effort to stem the bleeding, Fox is trying out different hosts in that all-important primetime slot.
Pete Hegseth, Jesse Watters, and McEnany are rumored to be the top serious contenders for the job.
Carlson’s shoes will not be easy to fill, however.
The time slot has been hosted by anchors Brian Kilmeade and Lawrence Jones so far.
But for the week of May 8 to May 12, it will be McEnany’s hour.
She said:
“I am honored to share that I will be hosting Fox News Tonight at 8 pm ET all next week (5/8-5/12)!
“Set your DVR.
“Please join me next week as we dig into the state of politics, media, culture, and faith in America!”
McEnany currently co-hosts Fox’s midday show “Outnumbered.”
She delivers the ratings for Fox often beating her network talk show competition, including “Goor Morning America 3” and “Today w/ Hoda & Jenna.”
