On the Record is an American current affairs television program on the Fox News Channel.
The program features criminal stories of the day, following the latest information from correspondents on location and officials related to the issue. Alike to most networks, the program also consists of analysis from legal analysts of the network and the host on the stories it's following. Additionally, the program also may derail from criminal stories to follow breaking news of the day, alike to other programs on the network.
Hosted by Greta Van Susteren, the program is broadcast live each weekday at 10:00 p.m. ET and replayed at 3:00 a.m. ET. Regular substitute hosts on the program are Martha MacCallum, Jamie Colby, and Megyn Kelly (like Van Susteren, both Colby and Kelly are attorneys).

During weekdays, an online blog is updated on a daily basis to keep viewers up to date on the latest information on cases the program is following in addition to giving viewers "inside information on the program they won't get anywhere else."
Updated by Van Susteren, the blog also has a number of the e-mails she receives on a daily basis, answering anything from questions about the latest stories to the program itself to other questions and criticisms.
[edit] Criticisms
In late 2005, many criticisms of On the Record's coverage of the Natalee Holloway coverage formed. Primairly, coverage of the story had moved from the actual case, to Beth Twitty's endeavors [1], the later in the year it became.
Additionally, the story had brought On the Record its highest ratings to date [2], keeping the story on the front burner, though no new groundbreaking information had appeared on a regular basis. By some, the coverage has been labeled "missing white woman syndrome," with the addition of other stories covered in the following months. As of late though, the story has still been continued on the website online (with its own section) [3] and the weekday program, though the segments are becoming more sparse and only are covered during times when groundbreaking information is in the headlines.
