Kelly re-signed her contract with news of Greta Van Susteren’s contract renewal. Though terms of the deal are unclear, it’s possible that Van Susteren might move out of her 10:00 p.m. time slot. The move would open up a prime-time position for Kelly, who many consider to be Fox News’ rising star. Van Susteren’s husband suggested to the Times that “she would happily move to an earlier hour, perhaps sometime later this year.” While Van Susteren’s prime-time show is one of the most highly rated programs on cable news, ratings for “On The Record” plunged to record lows in the coveted A25-54 demographic in March. In January, Fox News reported its lowest prime-time ratings since August 2001, and its lowest total day ratings since June 2008.

Let’s face it, this might be a good move for Foxnews.. Just think of it, the next time you turn on your TV at 10:01 PM you’ll see Kelly’s face and not that of old law haggard Van Susteren..
