Americans need to be engaged and invested in the legislative process that affects their daily lives, otherwise we are just democracy in name only.
Harris Faulkner
I'm a motivational speaker, so I'm going to look at something in as much of a positive way as possible.
I'm curious when I look across the dial Monday through Friday, you know, where are the other female black anchors?
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.
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.
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.
It's social media. You can't be thin-skinned.
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.
My purpose has broadened. My purpose now is to help as many people rise as possible, and it doesn't matter whether they're women or men. But that sense of value that we have as individuals, I think informs us and helps us to treat each other better.
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.
The greatest skill that I have is what the viewer has: I listen. I try to listen silently.
My dad was a fighter pilot with the 210th Combat Aviation in Vietnam.
My husband is Jewish.
Every soldier I've ever met knows that you've got to do more than just run out onto the battlefield screaming, 'We're going to win!'
My mom cautioned me not to become a gossip! I was always up in people's business. People told me stuff... even when I didn't ask and I channeled my story gathering and good sources into a hunger for the news.
I believe in diversity in thought, in culture, and all sort of things.
My mission in life is to get to heaven, so the people I have in my inner circle I don't allow to do the 'rule breaking' that we know as Christians we can't.
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.
I may not have served myself, but I grew up witnessing service, and it was perhaps my most foundational experience. For a little background, I'm what's called a brat in military circles.
When I was a little girl, my father, who was a high-ranking officer, pilot, and an avionics specialist in the United States military, would hoist me up onto the elevator - the flight control surface located at the tail of his airplane. From up there I could get a glimpse of the world as he saw it.
Candidates seeking the highest office in our government deserve the opportunity to be fully heard.
My father, a Vietnam War pilot, used to tell me that the only really bad decisions are the ones you stick to even when you get facts that support a change in the mission.
The thing that I really love to do, that I now only do in the shower, is to sing the national anthem.
One thing every Army pilot knows is that there is no such thing as a routine mission.
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.
Getting into network television was tougher than I thought it was gonna be.
It is well documented that Fox News has the audience demographics that other networks thirst for.
Dozens of Democrats appear on Fox News each month. If it were not worth their time and energy to debate, converse and display their experience and governing styles to millions of voters who happen to watch Fox News, wouldn't they all just line up at others' broadcast booths on Capitol Hill?
When you're in Kansas City and it's game day, there is nothing going on but game day.
My father made many narrow escapes during his time in Vietnam.
My mother gave birth to me at Fort McPherson in Atlanta, Georgia. A short while later we were living in Stuttgart, Germany.
Being given the honorary rank of brat is the armed services' way of saying thank you to us kids for having grit too. They understand that when one member of a family joins the military, the whole family bears the weight of their service.
I wrote for my university newspaper and went on to freelance for a Los Angeles publication in my first months after graduating from UC Santa Barbara. I also interned at a couple of TV stations in the L.A. area.
President Trump has made political news interesting and necessary for people to follow.
Sometimes the most motivated person to change something is the one being held accountable at the moment.
Having a parent who served in the military has made me a better journalist.
I love the energy and urgency of working in news.
We're very tech light in our house.
We become like the five people we spend most of our time with; Oh, we've got to be picky, and you might have to fire a few people who don't belong in that inner circle because they can't help you be your best and further your purpose.
You need to know how to put a mission together to victory!
I'm living my dream totally! I mean, my career dream, my home-life dream with the two kids and the hubby. And my familial dream outside of that was for my Mom to see me host my own weekday show and she didn't live to see that but her partner of 57 years did.
The Navy Seals don't travel with 200 people, they wouldn't be able to execute the kind of tip-of-the-spear missions they do.
Remembering growing up on U.S. Army bases stateside and abroad, the Star-Spangled Banner was played at important occasions... and often. It was the first song I learned the lyrics to.
Technology has made our lives both more efficient and more demanding.
I got to travel to some pretty awesome places, learn other people's customs, and see what works in their world differently than in ours.
I'm sure it won't surprise you to learn that I kept a diary - actually, quite a number of them over the years.
The U.S. military is known the world over for its advanced technology as well as the prowess, skill, and dedication of its service members. When you grow up in the company of its leaders, as I did, you understand that this greatness is something that is cultivated.
I grew up military but have met very few women that have a mission plan for when things don't work out. I attack everything like that.
I feel really blessed to work in a place that values me for what I bring as a journalist and as a professional storyteller and navigator of the news. But I also know that they appreciate about me, my perspective as a woman, as a black woman.
Having a CEO, having that person run a news corporation who's female, is already a talking point.
