Chris Wallace

Christopher Wallace (born October 12, 1947) is an American broadcast journalist. He is known for his tough and wide-ranging interviews, for which he is often compared to his father, ''60 Minutes'' journalist Mike Wallace. Over his 60-year career in journalism he has been a correspondent, moderator, or anchor on CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox News, and CNN. In 2018, he was ranked one of America's most trusted television news anchors. He has won three Emmy Awards, a Peabody Award, a George Polk Award, the duPont-Columbia University Silver Baton Award.

As a teenager, Wallace became an assistant to Walter Cronkite during the 1964 Republican National Convention. After graduating from Harvard University, he worked as a national reporter for ''The Boston Globe''. He transitioned towards broadcast news at NBC (1975–1988), where he served as a White House correspondent, the Sunday anchor for ''NBC Nightly News'' (1982–1984, 1986–1987) and moderator of ''Meet the Press'' (1987–1988). He then worked for ABC, where he served as an anchor for ''Primetime Thursday'' and ''Nightline'' (1989–2003). He is the only person to have served as host and moderator of more than one of the major U.S. political Sunday morning talk shows, which he did during his time at NBC.

From 2003 to 2021, he hosted ''Fox News Sunday'', and took high profile interviews with Barack Obama, Donald Trump, and Vladimir Putin. He made history when he became the first Fox News journalist to moderate a United States Presidential debate in 2016 between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. He returned to moderate the 2020 debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. In 2021 he left Fox to join CNN as host of the interview series ''Who's Talking to Chris Wallace?'' (2022–2024) and anchored ''The Chris Wallace Show'' (2023–2024). In November 2024, Wallace left CNN following the expiration of his three year contract. Provided by Wikipedia
