Харрис Фолкнер: Путь американской телеведущей

American television anchor

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

Faulkner was born on October 13, 1965, at Fort McPherson in Atlanta, Georgia. Her father, retired Lieutenant Colonel Bobby R. Harris, a United States Army officer and Army Aviator, was stationed at the base and had served three tours in Vietnam. Faulkner lived in different places as a child, including Stuttgart in West Germany.

Faulkner's start was with LA Weekly, where she contributed as a freelance business writer for $50 per article. 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. From 1992 to 2000, Faulkner worked for Kansas City's WDAF TV as an evening anchor. While in Kansas City, Faulkner was the victim of harassment and stalking by a former acquaintance who followed her from North Carolina. Faulkner joined Fox News in 2005. 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. 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, prior to the departure of Gutfeld from that show. 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. In June 2023, Faulkner served as a guest host of Fox News Tonight following the firing of Tucker Carlson. 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."

While at ABC's Minneapolis 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". In 1998, she was awarded the Amelia Earhart Pioneering Lifetime Achievement Award for her humanitarian efforts. In 2021, she was honored by Varietys 2021 New York Women's Impact Report for her 2020 interview with then president Donald Trump after the murder of George Floyd.

Faulkner married former WCCO TV reporter Tony Berlin in 2003. 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. Hasbro settled with Faulkner in October 2016, agreeing to cease production of the toy.
