Larry Kudlow has been appointed as the interim host of "Sunday Morning Futures" on Fox News, taking over from Maria Bartiromo, who has been with the network for many years. Kudlow's first day in the role is set for this Sunday at 10 a.m. ET, and he will remain in the position until after the midterm elections on November 8.
This change at Fox News comes as the network shifts its programming lineup. Bartiromo’s exit marks the end of her regular appearances on the Sunday morning show, where her commentary and interviews had become a staple for viewers interested in business news and analysis. Kudlow, who has his own background in economics and political commentary, is expected to bring a similar perspective to the show in the interim.
The move has been described as a transition within the network, highlighting Kudlow’s expertise and experience in financial and economic discussions. Known for his distinctive viewpoints on economic policy, Kudlow's hosting is anticipated to draw in both longtime viewers of Bartiromo and a possibly new audience as the country approaches the important midterms.
In the coming weeks, viewers can expect Kudlow to address pressing economic issues and engage with prominent guests to offer insights into the business climate and its political implications. Fox News has not yet provided details on who will take over the role on a permanent basis, leaving open the possibility for further changes in programming as the network evaluates its audience's preferences.
According to Variety, Kudlow's temporary assignment could serve as a strategic move for Fox News as they approach critical election coverage, and the show's format may adapt to reflect ongoing financial narratives leading up to the elections. With Kudlow at the helm, the discussions are likely to remain focused on economic trends and their impacts on the political landscape, something Bartiromo was known for in her tenure as host.
