Fox News Host: Our Female Anchors Come From ‘Victoria’s Secret Catalogue,’ Luckily Can Talk

Fox News Host: Our Female Anchors Come From ‘Victoria’s Secret Catalogue,’ Luckily Can Talk

Fox News host Brian Kilmeade today referred to his female coworkers as Victoria’s Secret models who can also speak.

During Kilmeade’s Fox radio show, he joked to his female co-host Alisyn Camerota that that the way he and his network pick out female hosts is, “we go into the Victoria’s Secret catalogue and we said, ‘Can any of these people talk?’ And they all could and they all went to college.” Listen:

Earlier this year, Kilmeade’s female coworker walked off the set after he lamented, “Women are everywhere. We’re letting them play golf and tennis now. It’s out of control.”

This guy is a total idiot. Along with Gretchen and the other dufus. I absolutely refuse to listen to them.

all of their female anchors look EXACTLY alike and not one of them is really all that attractive.

and we ended up with "Fox and Friends".


Both are equally newsworthy, both are equally entertaining, both show an ample amount of leg, and both appeal to the same target audience.

Kilmeade, Doocy and Carlson. Dorks with no brains, no credibility, and no class.

And I think the NFL Network uses that method, too.
