Career
Beginning in 1991, Martha MacCallum spent five years as a business news reporter and anchor for Wall Street Journal television programs, including The Wall Street Journal Report, World Market Outlook, and Business USA.

MacCallum has been with Fox News Channel since 2004. She hosted The Live Desk from 2006 to 2010 and then hosted America’s Newsroom from 2010 to 2017. In January of that year, MacCallum launched a new show on Fox News Channel called The First 100 Days. Her extensive experience has made her a valuable member of the Fox News team for over a decade, establishing her as an important voice in the news broadcast industry.
After Megyn Kelly resigned, Martha MacCallum took over Tucker Carlson Tonight, which was later renamed The Story with Martha MacCallum on April 28, 2017. However, Newsmax’s ratings skyrocketed in late 2020 while Fox and MacCallum’s ratings dropped significantly. As a result, on January 11, her show, The Story, was moved from the primetime 7 p.m. ET slot to the less lucrative 3 p.m. ET slot, leading to her demotion.
