Bill Hemmer (born November 14, 1964 in Cincinnati, Ohio) is an American television news anchor. He is currently a co-host of America's Newsroom on the Fox News Channel.
Since joining Fox News in August 2005, Hemmer has reported on a number of stories, including the Hurricane Katrina aftermath, the 2006 Israel-Lebanon crisis, the Iraq War, and other stories.
Before he joined the Fox News Channel, Hemmer spent ten years at CNN hosting a number of programs, including American Morning with Soledad O'Brien, CNN Tonight, CNN Early Edition, CNN Morning News, and CNN Live Today with co-anchor Daryn Kagan. During the disputed 2000 Presidential Election, Hemmer became the face of CNN's coverage in Florida.
He left CNN due to the fact that the organization wanted to post him in Washington D.C., at the White House, whereas Hemmer wanted to remain in New York City. In 2004 a webcomic titled The Adventures of Chad Cleanly was begun with the main character based on Mr. Hemmer.
He is a graduate of Elder High School in Cincinnati, Ohio, and of Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.
