A Fox News commentator fainted on live television while stunned host Jonathan Hunt was left to keep the show going.
On Thursday (May 8), Camryn Kinsey appeared as a guest on Fox News @ Night. During a heated discussion about Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, she began stuttering before falling off her chair and audibly hitting the floor.
“Oh my goodness, we’re just going to get some help here for Camryn,” Hunt told viewers. Not moving from his chair to help Kinsey, he attempted to pan the camera to another news host, before deciding to take a break.
“Actually we’re going to go to a break right here, we’ll be right back,” he said, as someone came from behind the scenes to help Kinsey.
A Fox News rep told TMZ that they called paramedics and that Kinsey “was treated, cleared, and is now feeling much better.” It’s not yet known what caused her to faint.
Kinsey worked for Donald Trump during his first term in office, serving as the External Relations Director in the Presidential Personnel Office. She was at the White House for six months before she became a White House correspondent for One America News Network. She later founded Titan Media Strategies, a media advisory firm that focuses on digital interaction, branding, and conservative messaging.
Kinsey commented on the incident on Friday afternoon (May 9), telling her followers that she was “sorry for the scare last night.”
After thanking the "incredible Fox News team and the EMTs who responded with speed and care," she said she was doing well despite the "unexpected and frightening moment."
"I’m taking it slow, staying hydrated, letting my body rest, and thanking the Lord that everything is okay," she added. "It may not have been how I planned to end the segment, but I’ll be back on your TV soon. Hopefully long enough to finally finish my point about Kamala!"
