We in the media accept the responsibility of what we do.
— Harris Faulkner
I always wear my signature 5- to 5-and-a-half-inch heels.
Downtime for me is just when I can sit still.
I am profoundly grateful for the opportunities he gave me and not once have I ever been ashamed to say these five words: Roger Ailes believes in me.
For young people I like to talk about unleashing your integrity, because I tie it to social media and how careful we have to be about being consistent online with who we really are.
I liked the remake of 'Ghostbusters.'
I was always tenacious.
I'm a motivational speaker, so I'm going to look at something in as much of a positive way as possible.
One of the things I love about Fox News is that it looks at something and tries to figure out how it can be useful in the journey and bring everybody else along and lead the way.
It's not annoying to get a compliment.
I do believe that this country is the greatest on this planet and that we can come together and get great answers together.
To get a presidential tweet from the Commander-in-Chief about a military book that you've written is pretty awesome. And it wouldn't matter where that person's politics would be, it's the President of the United States.
My kids really still share the one thing that I think is life-changing, and that's eye contact with me. As they've gotten older, I have made it a priority to continue that.
At the end of the day, we can talk about anything but we have to be respectful.
I know enough to know every time a cable show beats a broadcast show... you've attracted people outside the scope of what you normally reach.
Sometimes you will hear me say right on the air, 'You just cited a poll that is not even part of Real Clear Politics,' which is an average, an aggregate. Yours is seeming to be an outlier. Give me the name of that poll and the date that it was taken. I will say it right on the air.
I think it's impossible to be up close with people and to ask them to let you in if you're fake.
In the past, the biggest mistake I've made has been trying to treat election night like the first and last time anyone will ever see me on TV. I've worn dresses that were more prom time than primetime.
Even though I'm just over 5'9'', heels make me feel feminine and fierce.
I'm pretty disciplined. But your brain needs boredom. It needs routine.
Here's what I know: My rise and success have been a direct result of the merits and fabulous opportunities from mentors, including Roger Ailes. Without him, my journey would be quite different. He has changed the arc of my career. He believed in me when people who looked like me were not in network news.
If anybody can harm you, it's going to be the people who are closest.
I tell you what, if somebody gives you the opportunity to live your dream, wouldn't you want to do it for a lot of hours?
My husband is Jewish.
My dad was ex-military, so I was raised to always know about current events, particularly what was going on with the military and government. And I always loved storytelling.
It's social media. You can't be thin-skinned.
The thing that I really love to do, that I now only do in the shower, is to sing the national anthem.
I believe in diversity in thought, in culture, and all sort of things.
Getting into network television was tougher than I thought it was gonna be.
I married an amazing guy.
Unfortunately, we've reached a point in society where we don't mind staying mad at each other for awhile. It wasn't always like that.
The greatest skill that I have is what the viewer has: I listen. I try to listen silently.
Sometimes I get slammed because I work at Fox and I am black. People are like, 'How could you work there? Who are you?' People really want to know what are your politics personally. Some of them, not everybody.
I have a certain perspective and intolerance for people who try to twist and bend whatever the truth might be.
People often ask how my hair has that supreme fullness even at midnight. Here's a trick that one of our Fox News stylists taught me: Backcomb your hair just at the crown for height, and then put a large velcro roller there and wear it for as long as you can. I keep rollers in until showtime.
On a daily basis I'm covering things that are leaking out of the White House and leaking out what should be closed-door meetings on the Hill. That is not integrity.
You don't get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate.
We want eyeballs on the screen.
My dad was stationed at the Pentagon when I was like middle-school age. He was support for the Joint Chiefs of Staff; his boss was Colin Powell.
I'm all of those things that I was brought up to really value: honesty, stick with it, don't quit, don't cut and run, stay in there. When you think things might fall apart, believe that you have enough for victory. That's the stuff I have in me.
I knew from a very young age that I was going to use my voice. I've basically sounded like this since I was 9.
We have a lot of interesting, talented women at Fox News.
It benefits my girls to see a mommy who is living her dream.
I think you kind of facilitate civil conversation no matter how heated you think it could get by telling everybody and showing them that you mean what you say when you value all sides.
I hope that people look at me and think that I'm good at my job.
I'm curious when I look across the dial Monday through Friday, you know, where are the other female black anchors?
I see a lot of moms and dads frustrated because their kids have their devices at the dinner table and they can't seem to get their attention as much as they used to.
You have a finite amount of people who watch at a certain time every day. But when you have that kind of success that 'Outnumbered Overtime' continues to have, it's gotta be a broader audience. I'm really thrilled about that.
If there is something I don't know and I suspect that I need clarification and so does the viewer, I just ask for it.
Regardless of what all the research says about don't talk about politics at work, people are talking about what they see on the news.
