The Full Ginsburg is a term used in American politics to refer to a person who appears on all five American major Sunday morning talk shows on the same day: ‘This Week’ on ABC, ‘Fox News Sunday’ on Fox, ‘Face the Nation’ on CBS, ‘Meet the Press’ on NBC, and ‘State of the Union’ on CNN. ‘State of the Union’ replaced ‘Late Edition’ on CNN in January 2009.
The term is named for William H. Ginsburg, Monica Lewinsky’s lawyer during the sexual conduct scandal involving President Bill Clinton. Ginsburg was the first person to accomplish this feat, on February 1, 1998. Thirty eight people have done it since including Senators, Former Presidents, and Secretaries of State. Jack Lew, John Kerry, Denis McDonough, and Mike Pompeo have done the Full Ginsburg twice. Marco Rubio has done it three times.
