Early Career Moves

Following his graduation from the University of California, Berkeley, Gutfeld began his career as an intern at The American Spectator, assisting conservative writer R. Emmett Tyrrell. He later joined Prevention magazine as a staff writer and was then hired as an editor for various Rodale Press magazines. In 1995, Gutfeld joined Men’s Health as a staff writer and was later promoted to editor-in-chief in 1999. His tenure ended in 2000 when he was replaced by publisher David Zinczenko.

Gutfeld was later appointed as the editor-in-chief of Stuff magazine, which was owned by Dennis Publishing, a British company. Under his tenure, the magazine’s circulation increased from 750,000 to 1.2 million. In 2003, Gutfeld hired several dwarves to disrupt a Magazine Publishers of America conference focused on “buzz,” instructing them to be as loud and annoying as possible. The stunt drew public attention, leading to his dismissal, but he was then named “director of brand development” at Dennis Publishing afterwards. From 2004 to 2006, he served as editor of the UK edition of Maxim, but his contract was not renewed following losses in readership under his tenure.

Greg Gutfeld Shows

Transitioning into the television industry in February 2007, Gutfeld started as a host of the late-night talk show Red Eye, which aired on the Fox News Channel during weekdays at 2 am and during the weekends at 11 pm. Between 2007 and 2013, Bill Schulz acted as Gutfeld’s sidekick, while Andy Levy took on the role of ombudsman for the show. On July 11, 2011, Gutfeld joined the Fox News political talk show “The Five”, which airs weekdays at 5:00 P.M. ET, as a co-host and panelist. He left Red Eye in February 2015, and Tom Shillue took over his role as the host.

On May 31, 2015, Gutfeld launched a weekly late-night talk show on Fox News titled The Greg Gutfeld Show, which aired Saturdays at 10 p.m. On April 5, 2021, the show was renamed to “Gutfeld.” By August 2021, Gutfeld had overtaken The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in the nightly ratings, becoming the most-watched late-night talk show in the United States, despite airing in prime time at 8 p.m. on the West Coast without a later repeat at 11 pm. It averaged 2.12 million nightly viewers, outperforming Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Late Show, and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

By late 2021, Gutfeld! and The Five averaged more than five million viewers. In June 2023, Fox News revealed that Gutfeld! would shift to 10 P.M. ET starting July 17, as part of a broader reshuffling of its primetime schedule, removing the show from the late-night category.
