The viewer I picture in my mind when I do 'The Kelly File' is a woman who's had a long day, either with the kids or at work, or both.

When I went to law school, which I put myself through for $100,000 dollars of debt, I didn't expect anybody to pay for my health insurance, which I had none of. No health insurance.
I have the humor of a 9-year-old boy, and sometimes I've had laughing fits on-air.
Once I found professional happiness, it gave me time to think about other areas in my life in which I wasn't happy. The next obvious candidate for introspection was my marriage.
I was never lined up outside of my bosses office saying 'Give me an opportunity; there's not a woman in primetime'... I was just trying to be so good they couldn't ignore me.
There is no question that Hannity is a conservative.

He definitely leans right when it comes to certain social, traditional value issues, but he's all over the board on certain other issues.
You will never catch me in a dress without a pair of Spanx and a bra.
The relative lack of power of certain minority groups, and the fear they're feeling in the wake of Donald Trump's election, is something I think we really need to take a look at.

I think that 'Fox News' is fair and balanced.

I'm steeped in the news because I enjoy the news - I like reading papers, I like reading the blogs, I love talking to newsmakers and pundits, for that matter, about their opinions. I'm an information gatherer by nature, so that's what attracted me about this industry.
When I was in 10th grade, I took one of those tests that's supposed to tell you what you should be when you grow up. The test told me that I should be a journalist.

If I could have half the career of Diane Sawyer, I'd be a happy woman.
I knew Andrew Breitbart very well, and he was great. I loved him. He was a true provocateur who would be fun about it, you know.

Typically, you get a year in prison for making a threat to assassinate the president.
I was badly bullied when I was in the seventh grade - relentlessly, mercilessly - by a group of 12-year-old girls.

That turned out to be a life-changing mistake.
There are lots of people who are red-carpet types, but that's not me.
