FNC’s Chris Wallace Re-Ups As FOX News Sunday Anchor

Fox News announced Tuesday that FOX News Sunday host Chris Wallace has signed a new multi-year contract that will keep him in his Washington chair on Sunday mornings. “Chris is a consummate journalist who is renowned in the industry for his hard-hitting interviews. We’re proud he is continuing that work at Fox News,” said Michael Clemente, Fox News senior vice president of news.

Wallace, who joined Fox in 2003, worked for 14 years at ABC News and before that at NBC. His new deal–the exact length and the dollar amount not released–continues at least through the next presidential election. “I am delighted to know where I’m going to be spending my Sunday mornings for the next few years–and to be part of an outstanding Fox News team covering the changing balance of power in Washington, the 2012 Presidential election, and beyond,” said Wallace in a statement.
