There really is a first time for everything

Fox News Anchor Chris Wallace Scores Network’s First-Ever Emmy Nomination

Fox News’ Chris Wallace became the first person at the network to ever receive an Emmy nomination.

Fox is now running a “For Your Consideration” marketing campaign for Wallace’s nomination.

Wallace received the News and Documentary Emmy nomination under the “Outstanding Live” category for his July 2018 interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Wallace is “getting recognized more frequently these days for his ability to grill his guests,” according to Variety’s Brian Steinberg, who authored a profile on the Fox News anchor this week.

The interview took place following a meeting between Putin, President Donald Trump, and other officials. During one moment of the interview, Wallace shoved a copy of a federal indictment against 12 Russian intelligence officials for allegedly hacking Democratic opponents to Trump in the 2016 election. Putin motioned for Wallace to put the papers on a side table instead.
