Last month we learned that Megyn Kelly was leaving her daytime anchor gig to take over a Fox News primetime slot. According to an “exclusive” Drudge Report flash this afternoon, that time slot will be 9 p.m. ET.
“Superstar newswoman Megyn Kelly has landed the 9 PM slot, top sources reveal,” the Drudge Report wrote. “The shock announcement is set for later this month.”
Fox’s 9 p.m. hour is currently helmed by Sean Hannity, leading to speculation over whether he could be out of a primetime gig.
There are many possible outcomes from this lineup change, but here are some of the most likely: Hannity moves to 10 p.m., pushing Greta Van Susteren up to the 7 p.m. currently inhabited by Shepard Smith‘s second show of the day. Or Van Susteren keeps the 10 p.m. slot and Hannity moves to 7 p.m., becoming Bill O’Reilly‘s new lead-in. Or Van Susteren moves to weekend primetime, despite previous reports suggesting she is signed for a “daily” show.
We’ll keep an eye on this story for any further developments….

When Fox News announced that Megyn Kelly was going to be moving from daytime to primetime, it did not specify what hour she would be taking over.
According to a 'flash' from Matt Drudge on Thursday, that hour is 9 PM — which is better-known as the time when Sean Hannity's show airs.
Drudge cited anonymous 'top sources' in his report, and said that the announcement would be made later in August.
The big question, if the report were to prove true, would be what happens to Hannity. He is signed to a long-term contract that will reportedly keep him on the network through the 2016 election. His other prime-time colleagues, Bill O'Reilly and Greta Van Susteren, are also signed for years. Recently, Van Susteren responded to rumors that she would be bumped by Kelly by saying she had a contract for a daily, primetime show.
UPDATE: Fox News chief Roger Ailes dropped some big hints about what changes might be afoot during an interview on Thursday. Ailes said that he has been working with Shep Smith, who anchors the network's 3 and 7 PM hours, on a 'a new way to deliver news' that would be unveiled in September—just around the time Kelly returns from maternity leave. This raised the possibility that Smith would also be involved in whatever changes Kelly's ascension prompts.

Is Sean Hannity being bumped from TV? The Drudge Report is breaking that Megyn Kelly is being given the 9pm slot at Fox News, the same slot Sean Hannity currently has...
Entertainment video | 808 views
Fedora-wearing recluse Matt Drudge, in typically cryptic and hyperbolic fashion, tweeted last month, 'Big shakeup at FOXNEWS this fall will have everyone buzzing, in all directions. A million words will be written...' Today he backed it up, sort of — although he's never to be fully trusted — with a report claiming that the network's shooting star Megyn Kelly will be moving to the 9 p.m. time slot, a 'shock announcement' that will be Fox's first prime-time change in a decade. (Things might be getting a little stale.) Drudge being Drudge, he strategically left out the juiciest part: Stalwart blowhard Sean Hannity owns the nine o'clock hour and is signed with Fox News through 2016. 'It's all about Megyn,' an 'insider' told Drudge. 'She is the new face of cable news. She has it all!' Only 999,900 words to go.
Update: 'We will neither confirm nor deny any programming schedule changes,' a Fox News spokesperson told Fox News. 'As previously stated, the network has signed long-term deals with Megyn Kelly, Bret Baier, Shepard Smith, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and Greta Van Susteren.'

Fox News rising star Megyn Kelly is going to take over the prime-time slot currently helmed by talk superstar Sean Hannity, a huge shift in the conservative news channel's programming, according to the Drudge Report.
'It's all about Megyn,' an inside source at Fox told Drudge. 'She is the new face of cable news. She has it all!'
It would be the first major prime-time change in the leading cable news channel's lineup in a decade.
So far, no other major news organization is reporting the item. Matt Drudge cited anonymous 'top sources' in his report Thursday afternoon, adding that the announcement would be made later in August.
Fox issued a statement shortly after the Drudge Report story appeared:
'We will neither confirm nor deny any programming schedule changes. As previously stated, the network has signed long-term deals with Megyn Kelly, Bret Baier, Shepard Smith, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, and Greta Van Susteren.'
But it's clear changes are coming. The big question is, where does Hannity go? He is signed to a long-term contract that will reportedly keep him on the network through the 2016 election, the Huffington Post reported. Fox prime-time's other stars, Bill O'Reilly and Greta Van Susteren, are also locked in to years-long contracts.

Fox News Chairman and CEO Roger Ailes announced last month that Kelly would move to a prime time position when she returned from maternity leave.
Now the Drudge Report says she'll take over the 9pm ET slot in the prime time lineup, but Fox News isn't spilling the beans.
A Fox News spokesperson said no official announcement would be made at this time.
“We will neither confirm nor deny any programming schedule changes,' the spokesperson said. 'As previously stated, the network has signed long-term deals with Megyn Kelly, Bret Baier, Shepard Smith, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and Greta Van Susteren.”
Kelly recently gave birth to her third child, a baby boy named Thatcher Bray Brunt.
She joined Fox News in 2004 and has anchored 'America Live' since February 2010. She also appears weekly on 'The O'Reilly Factor' in a segment titled 'The Kelly File.'

With the news today that Megyn Kelly will reportedly be taking over Sean Hannity's 9pm time slot this fall, the 'recovering lawyer' who burst onto the scene with her two-hour daytime America Live show in 2010 has completed her ascent to the highest reaches of Fox News.

Sean Hannity reacted to the rumor that Fox News' Megyn Kelly would be taking over his 9:00 p.m. time slot in prime time.
According to Thursday's Drudge Report, 'top sources' said that Kelly would be moving to Hannity's 9:00 p.m. hour and that the announcement would be made later in August.
Hannity also reacted to the rumor on Thursday, but did not confirm or deny its validity. 'I am actually enjoying people that really don’t know a whole lot, just going nuts. So I’m going to leave it there, just for fun,' Hannity said on his radio show. 'Let's just say in the end, I'm very happy. That's all I can say at this point.'
TVNewser reported that Fox News chief Roger Ailes addressed the rumor during a 21st Century Fox investors conference on the same day, saying that he would not comment on Kelly's primetime gig. He did tease upcoming announcements that not only seemed to impact Kelly and Hannity, but Fox News' beloved daytime and cable primetime host, Shep Smith. While the network's specific plans remain a mystery, one thing is quite clear: the number one cable news network that has not touched its prime time lineup in many years is about to implement some major changes.

2013 Emmy Awards Nominations Announcement 2013 VIDEO 65th 'Primetime Emmy Awards' Nominations Announcement 2013 LOS ANGELES (AP) - Groundbreaking Internet series and movie actors could be the headliners in the upcoming Emmy Awards contest. 'House of Cards' and 'Arrested Development,' which Netflix delivered to viewers on the Internet, not on TV, may become the first online programs to receive top series and acting bids when the Emmy nominations are announced early Thursday.
A 6-year-old TV academy rules change allows online entries to compete with cable and broadcast programs, although so far Internet shows have popped up only in lower-profile categories. That could change with the 65th Primetime Emmys.
'It certainly is a marker of the new era. ... It will send shock waves through the industry,' said Tim Brooks, a TV historian and former network executive.
'House of Cards,' a tale of political intrigue, is aiming for a best drama series bid and nods for stars Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright. 'Arrested Development,' the sitcom revived by Netflix after Fox canceled it, may get a best comedy series nod and nominations for cast members including Jason Bateman, Jeffrey Tambor and Jessica Walter.
Spacey and Wright also are part of a movement that keeps growing: prominent film actors finding good reason to work on the small screen.
With theaters dominated by blockbuster movies that are heavy
