Fox News Media has promoted Aishah Hasnie to anchor and White House correspondent.
Hasnie will anchor a noon-2 p.m. ET program on Saturday afternoons, starting on Jan. 10, and will become White House correspondent this week.
Since joining the network in 2019, Hasnie has served as senior national correspondent and congressional correspondent and, before that, was a correspondent based in New York. She has interviewed Donald Trump when he was a presidential candidate, as well as German Chancellor Friedreich Merz and Taiwanese Ambassador Alexander Yui. She covered the 2024 and 2020 presidential elections.
Hasnie also covered the recent government shutdown and the protracted vote to elect Mike Johnson as speaker in 2023.
Before Fox News, Hasnie was an anchor and investigative reporter at WXIN-TV, the Fox affiliate in Indianapolis, where she helmed the 4 PM newscast First at Four. She also was an investigative reporter and substitute anchor at CBS affiliate WANE-TV in Fort Wayne, IN. She got her start at GEO-TV, an international network based in Pakistan, where she was born.
Jay Wallace, president and executive editor of Fox News, said in a statement, “Aishah’s knowledge of Washington makes her a perfect addition to our stellar White House team of correspondents, and we are confident she will excel in the anchor chair as well.”
