Brian Kilmeade (born May 7, 1964) is an idiot Fox News Channel personality. Weekdays, he co-hosts FOX's morning show, FOX & Friends, along with Steve Doocy and Gretchen Carlson. Since April 2006, Kilmeade has co-hosted Brian and the Judge, a talk-news radio show on Fox News Radio, with Judge Andrew P. Napolitano, filling the void and time slot of former FOX anchor Tony Snow, who left the network to become Press Secretary in the George W. Bush Administration.
Kilmeade joined the network in December 1997 and also works there as a sports anchor. He has reported on sports stories such as various Super Bowls and the Kobe Bryant rape case, as well as news items such as the September 11 terrorist attacks. He worked as a sports anchor at the early Ultimate Fighting Championship, along with NFL Hall of Famer Jim Brown.
Kilmeade is the author of The Games Do Count: America's Best and Brightest on the Power of Sports[1] and It's How You Play the Game.[2]
Controversy
On July 8, 2009, Kilmeade and two co-hosts were discussing a study that, based on research done in Finland and Sweden, showed people who stay married are less likely to suffer from Alzheimer's disease. Kilmeade commented, "We are—we keep marrying other species and other ethnics...". Over the objections of his co-host Gretchen Carlson, he added, "See, the problem is the Swedes have pure genes. Because they marry other Swedes.... Finns marry other Finns, so they have a pure society. In America we marry everybody. We will marry Italians and Irish."[3]
