Fox News gives Trump skeptic Neil Cavuto's old time slot to MAGA diehard Will Cain

Neil Cavuto was one of the few dissenting voices against Trump on Fox News airwaves. His time slot will now be inhabited by Will Cain, who has become a MAGA culture warrior. Weeks after Fox News original Neil Cavuto shockingly revealed that he was immediately leaving the network he’d called home since 1996, the conservative cable giant announced that it had decided to tap Fox & Friends Weekend host Will Cain as Cavuto’s mid-afternoon replacement.
Unveiling a series of programming changes across the weekday and weekend schedules of both Fox News and Fox Business Network, Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott boasted about the upcoming The Will Cain Show, along with the host’s credentials and experience.
“As the media landscape continues to evolve, we are always looking to innovate our programming lineup to meet the needs of our viewers, and we are confident the new lineup will best position FOX News Media for the future,” Scott said in a press release. “Will Cain brings years of experience to the 4 PM hour as an accomplished broadcaster and a lawyer and we look forward to adding his insights to what will no doubt be another historic news cycle ahead this year.”.
Cain added that it was “an honor to wake up with America these past four years” as co-host of the network’s weekend morning show and that he looked forward to helping Fox viewers “understand the headlines through thought-provoking content and analysis every weekday afternoon.”.
According to the network’s announcement, Cain will take over Cavuto’s old 4 p.m. ET Fox News weekday slot on January 21. This also means that Cain, who also hosts a podcast for Fox News, will step down as co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend on January 18. Fox News contributor Charlie Hurt will replace Cain.
