I look for those moments that are 'gee whiz' moments. There's some 'gee whiz' stories in our show, and they can't be written like A-1 in the Times. They have to be written more like Page 6 in the Post.

I've never been in a focus-group meeting. I wonder how many anchors can say that.

There has to be news at a place called Fox News.

It is troublesome sometimes when people get up in your face in public, you know? And say, 'How could you, how dare you?' Well, they don't know me.

I take the subway to work. I love mass transportation.

I'm not a liberal elite who was educated in the northeast, for example, I'm just a kid from Mississippi.

I need to keep my story count high. I'm trying to get as many stories in my hour as is humanly possible. We're telling more stories in our hour than any national newscast has in the history of this business, I think.

When I hear people say that Fox News is right wing, I know that's not true, because I'm the one doing the news. It's my show, and there's no place for opinion on my show. It's uninteresting to me.

I like stories that affect families.

We are America; we don't torture. And the moment that is not the case, I want off the train.

The exact time of death, I think, is not something that matters so much at this moment for we will be reliving John Paul's life for many days and weeks and even years and decades and centuries to come.

I come from a place where we feel like we're not represented in the national media.
