The new home for Fox’s dayside programming gives the talent many locations to shoot from and lots of unique gizmos to play with including multiple monitors and a Perceptive Pixel touch screen.

FoxNews.com relaunched

As first mentioned on WebNewser and Inside Cable News, FoxNews.com has relaunched with a clean new look.

The new site features a very very clean almost subdued look for FOX and features a good amount of cross branding with FOX Business. The site also gives you a detailed look at each nights primetime along with quick links to “features & faces.”
