Fox News was the most-watched network during last month's Republican National Convention, drawing overwhelming viewership throughout the week, including an average of 9.43 million on the final night.

Bret Baier: Even Democrats Question Harris' 'Progressive Approach'

The question is whether the story will be very different at the Democratic National Convention. That is a big question mark, since party leaders have sometimes criticized or shunned the network.

That said, figures like Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) have appeared recently, while Kamala Harris' campaign announced over the weekend that part of a mega ad buy would go toward the network's daytime programming, "particularly during daytime programming that reaches a more moderate audience."

In separate interviews, Deadline spoke with Special Report’s Bret Baier and The Story’s Martha MacCallum, the lead anchors of Fox News’ coverage. They talked about what they expect to see this week, whether it will be a challenge to book Democrats for their shows and the prospects of Fox News hosting a presidential debate.
