New York, NY, USA - Last night, faux newsman Stephen Colbert had a send up of real newsman John Gibson of FNC, saying "the network announced that it is canceling the Big Story."

The 5pmET show with Gibson and Heather Nauert has been sidelined since Feb. 25 when FNC replaced it with America's Election HQ with Bill Hemmer and Megyn Kelly.

TVNewser first reported Monday that America's Election HQ would continue for the foreseeable future, so long as the Democratic primary continued. Fox News has made no announcement about Big Story being canceled.

mediabistro.com - New York, NY, USA - Johnny Dollar noticed that the FNC schedule for Sunday looks noticeably like its weekday schedule.

From 9-11amET, Bill Hemmer and Alisyn Camerota (in for newlywed Megyn Kelly) host America's Newsroom, with Jon Scott and Jane Skinner following for two hours with Happening Now.

The afternoon looks the same as well, with Martha MacCallum, E.D. Hill and Shepard Smith from 1-4pmET. At 5pmET, America's Election HQ airs with Hemmer and guest co-host MacCallum, and Smith is back at 7pmET for Fox Report.

Is FNC gearing up early for their coverage of "Super Tuesday II?"

Broadcasting & Cable (subscription) - New York, NY, USA - If you've noticed Dr. Keith Ablow popping up on various Fox News shows (Fox & Friends, Your World With Neil Cavuto), that's because he's been added to the top-rated cable news network's stable of contributors.

Ablow was one of asmattering of self-help TV hosts who landed talk shows in the wake of Oprah pal Dr. Phil’s success on daytime TV. But Ablow’s syndicated show, The Dr. Keith Ablow Show, was canceled earlier this year after one season.

USA Today - USA - Ask ABC World News anchor Charles Gibson why he has become the nation's most-watched TV news anchor, and he grins.

"Unbridled sex appeal," he says.

Gibson is kidding, of course. But after the tumultuous year since the Tom Brokaw/Peter Jennings/Dan Rather era ended, his reason might be as good as any as to why the race among him, NBC's Brian Williams and CBS' Katie Couric has played out the way it has.

The contest began last Labor Day with Couric's much-heralded arrival at the CBS Evening News. The former Today star and the man who hired her — CBS CEO Leslie Moonves —
