James Samuel Rosen (born September 2, 1968) is an American journalist, television correspondent, and author, who is a former Washington, D.C. correspondent for the Fox News Channel.

In 2013, he gained wide spread public attention after Department of Justice labeled Rosen a possible criminal 'co-conspirator'" after being given classified information by State department contractor Stephen Jin-Woo Kim. This led to the Justice Department surveilling Rosen via tracing his phone, timing of calls and his personal emails.[2] In response fellow journalists and news outlets criticized the Department of Justice conduct and defended Rosen.[3][4][5]

At the end of 2017, Rosen left Fox News after multiple accusations of sexual harassment from his female colleagues.[6] He worked at Sinclair Broadcast Group through December 31, 2021 and then joined Newsmax as its chief White House correspondent.[7][8]
