Next for Blagojevich: Fox News Sunday
CHICAGO (AP) -- Former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich continues his post trial media blitz with an appearance on ``Fox News Sunday.''

Blagojevich is scheduled to discuss his reaction to the verdict in his political corruption trial.

A federal jury convicted Blagojevich Tuesday of lying to the FBI but deadlocked on 23 other charges. Prosecutors plan to retry him.

The former Democratic governor has already appeared on NBC's ``Today'' show, WVON-AM and WLS Radio, as well as the Chicago Comic Con. He's also scheduled to appear on ``The Daily Show.''

The many appearances on TV and radio may provide a sense of deja vu for some.

Before his first trial, Blagojevich popped up everywhere, including on the ``The Celebrity Apprentice'' reality show. He was fired.
