Harris Kimberley Faulkner (born October 13, 1965) is an American television host who joined the Fox News Channel in 2005.[1][2] She anchors The Faulkner Focus, a daily daytime show, and hosts Outnumbered.[3] Additionally, she hosts her own primetime political franchise called Town Hall America with Harris Faulkner.[4][5] She has received six Emmy Awards,[6] including the 2005 Upper Midwest Emmy Awards for Best Newscaster (nominee) and Best News Special (recipient).[7]

Early life and education

Faulkner was born on October 13, 1965, at Fort McPherson in Atlanta, Georgia.[8][9] Her father, retired Lieutenant Colonel Bobby R. Harris, a United States Army officer and Army Aviator,[10][11] was stationed at the base and had served three tours in Vietnam.[12] Faulkner lived in different places as a child, including in a United States military installation in Stuttgart in West Germany, while her father was still serving as an US Army pilot.[12][13]

Faulkner attended the University of California, Santa Barbara, and graduated with a B.A. in mass communications.[14]

Career

Faulkner started with LA Weekly, where she contributed as a freelance business writer for $50 per article.[15] Faulkner started her television career with an internship at KCOP-TV in Los Angeles, doing small tasks, then moved to Greenville, North Carolina, to work as a reporter and anchor at WNCT-TV.[14][16]

From 1992 to 2000, Faulkner worked for Kansas City's WDAF-TV as an evening anchor.[14][17] While in Kansas City, Faulkner was the victim of harassment and stalking by a former acquaintance who followed her from North Carolina.[17]

Faulkner's next stop was at KSTP-TV in Minneapolis–Saint Paul, where she served as part of an evening anchor team. She left the station in July 2004.[18]

Faulkner joined Fox News in 2005.[19] She was a correspondent for the revival of A Current Affair until its cancellation in October 2005.

Faulkner anchored her first solo network newscast, Fox Report Weekend, from 2011 to 2017.[20] In addition to Midterm Election coverage 2018, Faulkner has substitute-anchored for Shepard Smith on Shepard Smith Reporting and for Martha MacCallum on The Story. She also made frequent guest appearances on the late-night satire show Red Eye with Greg Gutfeld, before the departure of Gutfeld from that show.[21] She now makes appearances on his week-night show Gutfeld! and serves as an occasional substitute co-host of The Five.

In April 2014, Faulkner began working as one of the co-hosts on the daytime Fox News show Outnumbered. In 2017, she became the anchor of Outnumbered Overtime, which has more of a hard news format rather than a discussion format. In early 2021, she launched her new show, The Faulkner Focus.[citation needed]

In June 2023, Faulkner served as a guest host of Fox News Tonight following the firing of Tucker Carlson.[22] On that show she proclaimed that religion was under attack, "Women and children are being redesigned by some sort of mad leftist science experiment," and that her pronouns were "U.S.A."[23]

Awards and honors

While at ABC's St. Paul affiliate KSTP, Faulkner received four regional Emmy Awards, including Best Anchor three years in a row (2002, 2003, and 2004) and for anchoring a news special, "Eyewitness to War".[24] In 1998, she was awarded the Amelia Earhart Pioneering Lifetime Achievement Award for her humanitarian efforts.[citation needed][25] In 2021, she was honored by Variety's 2021 New York Women's Impact Report for her 2020 interview with then-president Donald Trump after the murder of George Floyd.[26]

Personal life

Faulkner married former WCCO-TV reporter Tony Berlin in 2003.[18] The couple have two daughters[27] and have been residents of Edgewater, New Jersey.[28][29]

In September 2015, Faulkner sued Hasbro for $5 million, claiming a plastic hamster in its Littlest Pet Shop line was an unauthorized use of her name and likeness.[30] Hasbro settled with Faulkner in October 2016, agreeing to cease production of the toy.[31][32]
