Kayleigh McEnany Was Just Named The Co-Anchor Of This TV Show
Audiences will be seeing a lot more Kayleigh McEnany on their television screens as McEnany scored a new Fox News gig. McEnany, who served as a White House press secretary during the Trump administration, joined Fox News in March 2021 as an on-air commentator. At the time, Fox host Harris Faulkner said that audiences would be seeing more of McEnany on the network — and she was right.
Prior to returning to Fox News — where she interned early on in her career — McEnany worked as "a paid on-air commentator for CNN during the 2016 presidential campaign and a talk show producer at Fox News," according to the Los Angeles Times. Critics weren't necessarily surprised that McEnany landed a job at Fox because of the Trump ties to the network, per the Los Angeles Times. However, McEnany's new co-anchoring role will see her transition from contributor to a full-timer at the network.
