Kayleigh McEnany has stayed busy following her role as President Donald Trump’s White House press secretary.
As an important voice for conservative politics, she has rightfully not disappeared from the spotlight.
After joining Fox News earlier this month, McEnany now finds herself promoted as co-host to their daytime show, “Outnumbered.”
McEnany is being welcomed to the show due to her background of both politics and law.
She shared her response to the announcement on Twitter, saying she is honored for the opportunity.
In the past, McEnany has shared her political insights on other networks such as CNN, and was formerly the spokesperson of the Republican National Committee.
More on this breaking news from the Washington Examiner:
Former Trump administration press secretary Kayleigh McEnany will join Fox New Channel’s Outnumbered as a co-host.
McEnany will appear five days a week alongside the show’s founding anchor, Harris Faulkner, co-host Emily Compagno, and the show’s rotating group of panelists.
“Kayleigh’s unique background in politics and law coupled with her experiences confronting women’s health challenges and life as a new mom will add robust insight to Outnumbered — we are delighted to welcome her back to FOX News where she began her media career," said Suzanne Scott, CEO of Fox News Channel, in a news release.
McEnany Shared Her Excitement on Twitter
The Daily Wire with more on McEnany's reaction to the news:
McEnany said she was thrilled for the opportunity, posting about her new position on social media.
“I am thrilled to join the incredible women of Outnumbered and look forward to working alongside the talented Harris Faulkner and Emily Compagno as we discuss the top issues impacting the country,” the former press secretary said, according to the release.
Faulkner and Compagno are joined by rotating panelists for the show, including one male guest — hence the “outnumbered” theme.
“Since joining FOX News Media as an on-air commentator earlier this month, McEnany has provided political analysis across all platforms, including appearances on FOX & Friends, America Reports and The Five, among others,” the press release continued. “Previously, she served as the White House Press Secretary, a role she took after working for President Trump’s 2020 re-election campaign as the National Press Secretary.”
During her time serving as press secretary under the Trump administration, McEnany was known for her calm handling of adversarial reporters during daily briefings.
“Before joining the Trump campaign, McEnany held the title of national spokesperson for the Republican National Committee,” the press release detailed. “She got her start in politics as an intern for former Rep. Adam Putnam (R-FL) and later, in the White House Office of Media Affairs during President George W. Bush’s administration.”
McEnany was congratulated for the promotion by her peers.
