G Block
In case you were wondering, the "G Block" is defined as the 7th and final block of a news broadcast, with the previous 6 blocks being labled alphabetically from A to F. Fox explains it in better detail on their site:
"Each segment of our shows is titled with a letter of the alphabet. We call the segments 'blocks.' A block is made up of the time between each commercial break and is sometimes further broken down into smaller segments such as A1, A2, A3,...When Shep Smith refers to the "G Block" he is indicating that it is the seventh and last block of FOX Report. It is usually the segment in which he discusses entertainment and 'lighter' stories."
You're welcome. I know that was bugging you as much as it was me.
