Katie Pavlich, 37, has been confirmed as the permanent anchor in Ashleigh Banfield\u2019s former 10 p.m. time slot, following Banfield\u2019s decision to step away from her longtime primetime role. The change was announced on December 12, with Pavlich set to take over the hour in early 2026.<\/p>\n
A New Direction for Primetime<\/p>\n
While Banfield is not leaving NewsNation, she is stepping away from her crime-focused program, Banfield, to lead the network\u2019s expanding true crime unit. Under the new arrangement, her podcast, Drop Dead Serious with Ashleigh Banfield, will also become part of NewsNation\u2019s digital offerings.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI\u2019m excited to channel the momentum of my Drop Dead Serious podcast brand towards NewsNation\u2019s growing digital audience,\u201d Banfield said in a statement. She added that the success of true crime reporting on streaming platforms has been \u201ctransformative\u201d and said she was looking forward to helping shape and enhance NewsNation\u2019s multi-platform strategy in the genre.<\/p>\n
Initially, the 10 p.m. hour was scheduled to rotate hosts; however, the network later announced Pavlich would permanently take over the slot.<\/p>\n
From Fox News to NewsNation<\/p>\n
Pavlich has been a familiar presence at Fox News since 2013, frequently appearing on programs such as The Five, Jesse Watters Primetime, and Fox News Sunday. Her new show will mark a shift in focus for the 10 p.m. hour, moving away from crime stories and toward daily political coverage.<\/p>\n
According to the network, Pavlich\u2019s program will focus on topics including free speech, culture, immigration, national security, and foreign policy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
