Fox News Makes Life-Changing Announcement About Kayleigh McEnany

OPINION:  This article contains commentary which may reflect the author’s opinion

Former Trump White House press secretary-turned-Fox News co-host Kayleigh McEnany has made her return to the program “Outnumbered” after being absent for weeks, and she shared the good news on social media, along with the program itself.

According to her Bio, McEnany is an American conservative political commentator and author who served the administration of Donald Trump as the 33rd White House press secretary from April 2020 to January 2021.

Early in the 2016 Republican Party presidential primaries, she was a critic of Donald Trump, but over time became known as one of his staunchest defenders. In 2017, she was appointed national spokesperson for the Republican National Committee. She worked for the Trump 2020 presidential campaign as national press secretary from 2019 to 2020 and again as senior advisor from October 2020 to January 2021.

McEnany began her media career as a producer for Huckabee on Fox News. She later worked as a commentator on CNN. Following the Trump administration, she became an on-air contributor for Fox News and serves as a co-host of Outnumbered.

Jon Dougherty reported more details what happened to her, for Conservative Brief:

McEnany has been away from the show following the birth of her second child, a son, in December. “I’m so excited to return to Outnumbered tomorrow at 12 pm ET with Harris Faulkner and Emily Compagno. Blake & Nash are ready to watch their mommy,” she wrote.

The show itself tweeted from its account: “TOMORROW ON OUTNUMBERED: @kayleighmcenany is back on the couch with her DREAM TEAM.”

Last month, the former Trump administration press secretary announced she had written a book, “Serenity in the Storm: Living through Chaos by Leaning on Christ.”

On Amazon, the description of the book states: “Kayleigh McEnany brings to life the key cultural and political issues of our time, from the fall of Afghanistan to the Supreme Court’s abortion decision, analyzing world events through the lens of faith and providing readers with Serenity in the Storm. Our world, without question, is experiencing aberrational times. The ravages and life-altering realities of COVID-19 that I worked through as White House press secretary were just the start of it. What followed was a series of history-defining events. From the fall of Afghanistan to the nationwide crime wave, we’ve all endured painful images of death, destruction, and chaos.”

McEnany’s meteoric rise to cable news stardom continued before she left to have her baby as her “Outnumbered” program on Fox News drew even more viewers. The show broke into the top 20 programs in all of cable television in December, besting every program on rival networks CNN and MSNBC.

In addition to drawing in more overall viewers, ‘Outnumbered’ also topped competitors in the 25-54 age demographic in early August, which is sought after most by advertisers.

“‘Outnumbered’ got almost three times as many viewers as CNN’s ‘Inside Politics’ and did more than triple MSNBC’s show in the timeslot, Andrea Mitchell Reports, which continues to hemorrhage viewers,” Slay News reported on Tuesday, citing Monday’s viewership figures. “McEnany’s daytime show also crushed some of CNN’s primetime lineup, beating Don Lemon 1.768M to 649K.”

Several other Fox News programs were also in the top 20, with Tucker Carlson’s nightly offering at No. 4.

She also went viral last fall as she rebuked a patently false claim from Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams regarding fetal heart tones.

“There is no such thing as a heartbeat at six weeks. It is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that men have the right to take control of a woman’s body,” Abrams said this week during a campaign event at the Ray Charles Performing Arts Center in Atlanta.

“I believe that abortion is a medical decision, not a political decision. Arbitrary politically-defined timelines are deeply problematic because they ignore the reality of medical and physiological issues,” she added in a clip tweeted by the Republican National Committee, which also accused Abrams of supporting no limits on abortion.

McEnany responded to Abrams during a segment on Outnumbered, where she serves as a primary co-host.

“Stacey Abrams said there’s ‘no such thing as a heartbeat at 6 weeks. It is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that men have the right to take control of a woman’s body’ – She is wrong! I heard my baby’s heartbeat at my 1st OBGYN appointment. It was not manufactured!” she tweeted along with the show segment.

“FNC just completed its 18th consecutive month as the most-watched basic cable network in total day, averaging 1.35 million total day viewers in July 2022, per Nielsen live-plus-same-day data. Fox also averaged 194,000 adults 25-54 in total days for July. Compared to the previous month of June, however, Fox News lost -2% in total day viewers and -8% in the total day demo. How about Fox News primetime? The network remains far and away No. 1 in cable news, but shed -3% in total primetime viewers and -8% among the primetime demo vs. June,” Ad Week reported.
