The Journal Editorial Report is an American political debate program on Fox News Channel, hosted by Paul Gigot. Before that, the show aired on PBS as a conservative counterweight to the liberal news program NOW.

Opening with a newsmaker of the week, Gigot interviews the person for the first half of the program, asking questions relating the story they are related to.

Following that, the other half of the program consists of a panel of Wall Street Journal editorial writers giving their opinions on the political, economic, and cultural issues of the last week. Closing the show, an end segment labeled "Hits and Misses" lets the panelists give their opinions on what they believe will happen in the next week.

The program is broadcast during the weekends (all times Eastern), Saturdays at 4:00 and 11:00 p.m., Sundays at 6:00 a.m. The transcript of each show appears on OpinionJournal.com on the following Monday.

Compared to other programs on the network, the program is a solely conservative show which consists of a panel of columnists from the Wall Street Journal, all of whom are conservative or libertarian. Republican and conservative guests are brought onto the program. However, since the show has aired, no liberal speakers or guests have been brought on. The program is also less confrontational than other programs on the network.
