The Bolt Report

The Bolt Report is an Australian political discussion program hosted by conservative commentator Andrew Bolt, who focuses on conservative political and social comment in the form of opinion commentary, panel discussion and interviews. The program highlights climate-change denial, immigration issues, Indigenous Australians, federal deficits and government borrowing, government corruption and free speech.

The program premiered on 8 May 2011 on Network Ten as a weekly Sunday morning political discussion show airing for thirty minutes at 10am AEST/AEDT. The Bolt Report continued in 2014, with an extended running time of one hour, until 2015.

In 2016, the program moved to Sky News Australia, relaunching as a nightly primetime program, which debuted on 25 April 2016.

The program involves panel discussions, interviews and commentary.

The show also previously had individual segments including:

The programme was put into hiatus in December 2015 with the last bulletin aired on 29 November 2015, reportedly over News Corp's unwillingness to continue paying production costs of $2 million. While the future of the program was initially deemed uncertain, Bolt became a contributor to Sky News Live in February 2016, seemingly confirming the end of his association with Ten.

In March 2016 it was announced that The Bolt Report would resume on Sky News Live in May 2016 airing in primetime on weeknights at 7pm. The Sky News version will be produced in-house from the Sky News Melbourne bureau, unlike the Ten version which was produced by News Corp Australia.

The program ultimately premiered on Sky News Live earlier than previously advised on 25 April 2016.
