After years of quietly dating long distance, Hannity, 62, proposed to Earhardt, 48, over Christmas week at a church in his home state of Florida. "We are overjoyed and so thankful to our families for all of their love and support during this wonderful time in our lives," the pair told Fox News. The two added that they had the blessing and support from their children, who "couldn't be happier." Hannity shares two children, Patrick and Merri, with ex-wife Jill Rhodes,...

Two Fox News hosts and at least one other journalist have captured and shared their own photos and videos of the mysterious drones flying with increasing intensity around New Jersey and elsewhere in the past few weeks, with one saying he saw a craft that was as big as a school bus hovering 100 feet off the ground in Montclair.“Fox & Friends” host Steve Doocy told his co-hosts Tuesday that he has observed the flying craft multiple times now, coming in “low, they’re about 100 yards, flying over my backyard. … They are buzzing overhead all the time. The scary...

🚨Watch @WillCain go off in defense of @PeteHegseth against the military industrial complex and corporate media smear campaign that Republican Senators are buying into: “Any Republican Senator who wakes up this morning and is looking at Fox and Friends or a President who has a made a nomination probably needs to consider three options when it comes to why they wouldn’t support Pete Hegseth as their nominee. Number one, they choose to accept and align themselves on the side of anonymous reporters at NBC News, or the New Yorker, or the New York Times, and in my estimation put that...

Village People founding member Victor Willis has said that if the group was asked by President-elect Donald Trump to perform the YMCA for him they would have to "seriously consider" it. Willis appeared on Fox and Friends where he reversed himself on an earlier position of not wanting the president-elect to use the song. He told the hosts, "I decided to allow the president-elect's continued use of ‘YMCA.’ because he seems to genuinely, genuinely like the song and so many other artists were stopping him from using their music." "So I decided to contact BMI [Broadcast Music, Inc.] and told...

Former President Donald Trump spoke with the 'Fox & Friends' co-hosts about President Biden's Oval Office address and his plan to take on VP Kamala Harris

A high-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives said he's no longer making appearances "Fox & Friends" because one of its hosts has been critical of the GOP's investigation into President Joe Biden. Republican Rep. James Comer, the chair of the House Oversight Committee, made the comments Tuesday evening in an interview with Newsmax's Eric Bolling after the host mentioned his "concern is when the media, especially the conservative media, starts siding with the Bidens." Bolling specifically highlighted a comment made by Doocy on the show Monday morning where he mentioned his skepticism regarding allegations from Comer and the Republican...

Former President Trump took a swipe at Steve Doocy, a long time host of the Fox News flagship morning program “Fox and Friends,” saying the broadcaster is not “nice like he should be.” “You know, Steve Doocy’s interesting because he’s always been so nice to me for years, for years going back to 2016,” Trump said of Doocy during a new interview with The National Pulse. “But I, you know, I am loyal to people and I had a great relationship with him. But I would say over the last year, I don’t know, he just seems to be not...

Former President Trump attacked Fox News and its flagship morning news program Thursday over the way it has been covering him. “Why doesn’t Fox and Friends show all of the Polls where I am beating Biden, by a lot. They just won’t do it,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social website. The former president also took issue with the way the network was portraying him physically. “They purposely show the absolutely worst pictures of me, especially the big ‘orange’ one with my chin pulled way back. They think they are getting away with something, they’re not,” he said. “Just like...

Poor Brian Kilmeade sounds like he is reporting on a funeral this morning. The FOX and Friends host and Trump-basher reported on the latest Morning Consult pull showing President Trump up 54 to 26 over Governor Ron DeSantis. Kilmeade then compared President Trump to Jeb! Bush in 2016. That’s a stretch! Fellow FOX and Friends hosts look like they are reporting on a funeral.

Fox & Friends' Brian Kilmeade got it wrong (per usual) when he said Gov. Ron DeSantis "is winning over Americans." Visiting a Florida diner this morning where MAGA folk were chowing down on breakfast, he doggedly surveyed the crowd to see "Who's your man, who's your woman?" for 2024. But no matter who he asked, the answer was always "Donald Trump," or in one instance, "Trump and Nikki Haley." The only one who uttered DeSantis' name was a woman wearing a DeSantis T-shirt, but even she said she'd be just as happy with Trump. Fox science at its finest.

Former president Trump ripped into Fox News on Tuesday over its coverage of the political ascendance of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R). “So interesting to watch FoxNews cover the small and unenthusiastic 139 person crowd in Staten Island for DeSantis, but stay as far away as possible from coverage of the thousands of people, many unable to get in, at the Club 47 event in West Palm Beach, Florida,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social on Tuesday. “I call FoxNews the RINO Network, and their DOWN BIG Ratings accurately reflect the name. If FAKE NEWS CNN was...

EXCLUSIVE – Former Vice President Mike Pence, a likely 2024 Republican White House contender, is returning next week to South Carolina, the state that holds the third contest in the GOP presidential nominating calendar. Pence heads to Charleston, South Carolina on Thursday, March 2 to headline a law enforcement roundtable, Fox News has learned. Pence’s ninth trip to the Palmetto State since he left office over two years ago comes amid renewed efforts by Congress to pass police reform legislation after five police officers in Memphis, Tennessee were accused of killing 29-year-old Black man Tyre Nichols last month. The former...

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) hinted on Monday that he will make a decision on a 2024 presidential run after the state’s legislative session wraps up in May, giving the clearest timeline yet of when he could enter the race. Asked on “Fox & Friends” when he might decide on a White House bid, DeSantis mapped out the coming months, saying that he would embark on a tour to promote his new book, “The Courage to be Free,” and work through the Florida legislature’s regular session, which begins in early March. “We’re going to sell some books, we’re going to...

Former President Trump tore into Fox News’s flagship morning program on Monday, lashing out at its hosts for their coverage of his polling as he eyes another run for president in 2024. “@foxandfriends just really botched my poll numbers, no doubt on purpose,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social, the social network platforming he started after leaving office. “That show has been terrible — gone to the ‘dark side.’ They quickly quote the big Turning Point Poll victory of almost 60 points over the number two Republican, and then hammer me with outliers.” Trump was referencing the network’s...

DONALD TRUMP: I want to see good for the country, Brian, it’s so important to me. I want to see good for the country. There’s no gratification. What they’re doing is destroying our country. Our country is being destroyed before your very eyes. And I’ve never seen anything like it.

It’s hard to recall a former politician who was showered with more free media attention than Chris Christie this month as he peddled his new book, “Republican Rescue.” Invited to appear on a carousel of shows, Christie was all-present as journalists lined up to interview him. CNN even dedicated an entire primetime hour to him, treating the in-your-face Republican as one of the most important political voices in the country. Consumers aren’t buying it. A senior publishing source with access to the industry’s BookScan tabulations tells me that “Republican Rescue” sold just 2,289 copies during its first week in stores,...

Last week, MSNBC’s morning show “Morning Joe” topped Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends” in total viewers for the first time since 2001. The same claim holds true for MSNBC’s “dayside” (weekdays 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.) programming vs. Fox News Channel’s, if one wants another snapshot at the first-time-in-19-years claim. “Morning Joe” averaged 1.62 million total viewers from Nov. 9 to Nov. 13. “Fox & Friends” had an average of 1.38 million total viewers over the same Monday-Friday period.
