On the Record was an American news television program on Fox News hosted by the lawyer Greta Van Susteren. Prior to the show's cancellation after the 2016 election, the show was hosted by the television journalist and political commentator, Brit Hume, following Van Susteren's departure from Fox News on September 6, 2016. The show was named On the Record with Greta Van Susteren and On the Record with Brit Hume during each host's respective runs.
The program featured news stories of the day, following the latest information from correspondents on location and officials related to the issue. Like most networks, the program also consisted of analysis from legal analysts of the network and the host on the stories it was following. Additionally, the program also derailed from criminal stories to follow breaking news of the day, as do other programs on the network.
From its debut on February 4, 2002, to October 4, 2013, the program was broadcast live out of Fox News' Washington studio each weekday at 10:00 p.m. ET and replayed at 1:00 a.m. ET. On October 7, 2013, the show began airing weekdays at 7:00 p.m. ET, replacing the weeknight editions of the Fox Report .
On September 6, 2016, Greta Van Susteren announced that she would be leaving Fox News. Fox News senior political analyst Brit Hume was named as the interim host of the show for the rest of the 2016 election cycle. [1] The program aired its final episode, with Hume as host, on election eve, November 7, 2016. [2] On Thursday and Friday, to finish the week, On the Record was hosted by two final guest hosts, Martha MacCallum and Ed Henry, with Friday, November 11, 2016, being the last On the Record. The vacated 7:00 p.m. time slot was replaced on November 14, 2016, by a new Fox News show, Tucker Carlson Tonight , hosted by the former Fox and Friends weekend host, Tucker Carlson. [3] On January 9, 2017, the show was moved to the 9pm time slot [4] following the departure of Megyn Kelly from Fox News Channel to NBC News, which ended her FNC show, The Kelly File . [5]

In late 2005, there was considerable coverage by On the Record of the Natalee Holloway affair.
