Meghan McCain, the political scion who has won public fame as a blogger, commentator and TV-show host, will join Fox News Channel as a contributor, Variety has learned.
A spokesperson for the network confirmed the hire. McCain is expected to contribute to the network’s primetime and daytime programming.
McCain, the oldest daughter of U.S. Senator John McCain, a Republican, joins as Fox News Channel, like other news outlets, heads into a frenzied pre-season for the 2016 election for U.S. president. Already, more than a dozen different candidates for the Republican nomination have thrown their hat into the ring.
McCain, who has identified as a Republican in the past, could well offer the viewpoint of a different member of that political party: one hailing from the millennial generation. She has in the past championed gay rights and come out against anti-immigration legislation, and has publicly challenged commentators like Ann Coulter and Laura Ingraham. In her writings she’s expressed ambivalence about Sarah Palin, the former Fox News contributor who ran for U.S. vice president alongside her father, and admiration for Hillary Clinton, who is now vying for the Democratic nomination for U.S. president.
McCain most recently was a host for “TakePart Live,” a talk show on cable’s Pivot network that urged viewers to get involved with various social causes. She was also the focus of “Raising McCain,” a Pivot talk show that took her on the road. Both were cancelled.
McCain has written a campaign memoir, “Dirty Sexy Politics,” as well as “America, You Sexy Bitch: A Love Letter to Freedom,” a collaboration with comedian Michael Ian Black. She has also contributed to the Daily Beast and interned at Newsweek magazine. She earned her bachelor’s degree from Columbia University.
Are they going to change the name of the segment ‘Outnumbered’ to ‘Outweighed’?
Michelin is wondering where their mascot went.
What audience do they hope to gain by this?
No more Fox for this guy.
I suspect she is Beckel’s replacement.
Yeah. They’re tired of the high ratings. They want to live “on the edge” for a while.
If she has any professional qualifications, she keeps them well hidden, not like her boobs.
Have the government “watchers” started observing the newsrooms yet? If so, she must be part of the “solution.”
What FOX should do, if they want to present themselves as fair & balanced, is use average citizens who are well informed on the issues we face today. Actually, well informed and the morons who consider themselves well-informed. Give a them a national platform. Soon the public will be able to separate the wheat from the morons.
I think you meant displacement. Cruiser weight
That too.
“Maybe she will replace Juan or Geraldo on The Five.”
Juan and Geraldo are fairly innocuous self-confessed liberals who occasionally stray into the truth.
But this one is a certifiable “progressive” moonbat masquerading as a conservative. With her limited IQ, she would fit in nicely with Shep, manning one of his big screens.
"Meg's gonna show us her funbags."
Millenials.
Next will be Malia and Shasha joining Fox. Fair and balanced my azz.
LOL!
Yeah, tampon strings.
Sometimes the joke is in what you DON’T say...
I am conservative,but enough is enough.
My hurl clasp barely manages to protect me from Geraldo the six sigma to the left IQ rep, but any relative of bad pilot and one celled mind McDork does it.
Shove it, Fox. Network TV is as dead as the GOP.
LOL. Your comment is hilarious.
I find her to be her father’s daughter: Very obnoxious.
LOL!! I’m a female so I picked right up on your comment, and had to run with it.
