Timeline
On March 9, 2015, Eric, as a former Fox News Watch host, told CNN's Brian Stelter, “I’m saying that the people who watch Fox News are cult-ish," and that because of "their audience loyalty, ... O’Reilly, as the head of the cult, is not held to the same standards as Brian Williams.”
Burns is also a playwright. His first play, Mid-Strut opened in February 2012 at the Pittsburgh Playhouse, attracting three weeks of sold-out audiences and a favorable NPR review.
Burns was fired in 2008 after 10 years of hosting Fox News Watch on the Fox News Channel. The New York Times said Burns acted as "the ringmaster for a relatively even-handed roundtable discussion about the media." Vanity Fair magazine once called Fox News Watch one of only two programs on the network worth watching.
In the February, 1984 issue of the Washington Journalism Review (since become the American Journalism Review), Burns was cited as one of the best writers in the history of broadcast journalism, joining such luminaries as Edward R. Murrow, Charles Kuralt and David Brinkley. He was the youngest person so named to the honor.
After Pittsburgh, Burns went on to make stops in Parkersburg, West Virginia, where he was an anchorman and news director; and Minneapolis, where he was a reporter and anchorman. His work in Minneapolis caught the attention of NBC News executives in New York, and after a year and a half at station KMSP, Burns was hired as a national correspondent for NBC in 1976. Assigned first to the network's Chicago bureau, he was then moved to New York, with occasional overseas postings in Europe and northern Africa. He appeared regularly on NBC Nightly News and on Today.
Eric Burns (born August 29, 1945) is an American author, playwright, media critic, and former broadcast journalist.
More recently, Burns published "1920": The Year That Made the Decade Roar." It was named by Kirkus one of the best non-fiction books of 2015.
