Greg Gutfeld has been recognized by Variety as the new king of late-night television, eclipsing veteran hosts in viewership without relying on celebrity guests. His show, airing at 10 p.m. on cable, exceeds ratings of traditional networks' late-night programs, benefiting from an earlier timeslot. Gutfeld is noted for his distinct comedic style and the ability to engage a younger, conservative audience, significantly defining Fox's late-night programming. His journey from being fired by various print publications to becoming a leading figure in conservative comedy showcases his unique approach and resilience in the media landscape.
If I had Ryan Reynolds or somebody sitting there and we're doing a segment on trans and sports, do you think he's going to tell me what he thinks? Fuck no. He's going to be looking for his publicist: You said we were promoting a movie. You didn't tell me they were going to ask me about this.
I got Red Eye' because of the weird shit I was doing. Red Eye' was on so late at night, and the adults weren't watching. I got to do a thousand episodes.
I don't need it. [Jimmy Kimmel] could have Kevin Costner on, I'd still beat him. I'd still double his ratings.
Gutfeld was fired by numerous print publications before he was offered a seat at Fox News hosting the overnight comedy news show Red Eye in 2007.
