Blake Burman Joins NewsNation As Chief D.C. Correspondent

NewsNation, Nexstar’s cable news network, today named Blake Burman chief Washington, D.C., correspondent. Burman joins NewsNation reporters Joe Khalil, Allison Harris, Evan Lambert, Kellie Meyer, Tom Dempsey and Bureau Chief Mike Viqueira as the network further expands its bureau in the nation’s capital.

“Blake Burman is a seasoned journalist who has interviewed presidents, senators, members of Congress and economic leaders,” Viqueira said. “We are looking forward to having Blake join our team as we continue to cover political stories that impact our viewers’ lives by providing insights and perspectives from both sides of the aisle.”

Previously, Burman was the Fox Business Network White House correspondent; he joined Fox Business in 2015. He reported across the country for the 2016 presidential campaign and permanently moved to the White House beat in January 2017.

“NewsNation is focusing on what so many people across the country want: just the news, without preconceived notions,” Burman said. “I can’t wait to join this talented team to report on the stories that consume Washington and the policies that people with varying perspectives find meaningful.”

Burman has reported across four continents, from the biggest news-making summits and political gatherings, and was lauded for his one-on-one interview with President Trump during the height of the COVID pandemic. Burman’s White House reporting continued through the first six months of the Biden administration. In addition to leading Fox Business’ White House coverage, he often contributed to the reporting delivered by Fox News’ White House team. He also anchored across both networks.
