Just as his father is only a little known, so there is not much known about his childhood and how he grew up. However, he received his education from the Massapequa High School and later from the Long Island University (LIU Post).

Career

Since we all knew him because of his role in Fox News, he didn’t start his career there. It all began with Channel One News, where he worked as a correspondent before he moved to KFTR-DT.

In addition, Kilmeade has also worked for WVIT, as a freelance sports reporter. One thing many people don’t know about him is that he tried to make a career as a stand-up comedian, but it didn’t work for him somehow. After working with various media outlets, he joined Fox News in 1997 and soon became a co-host of ‘Fox & Friends’ which was described as Donald Trump favorite and most watched show. Since the 2000s, this show has been one of the most popular morning shows. He appeared on the radio in a news show called ‘The Brian Kilmeade Show.’

Latest news/Facts

Sometimes Kilmeade stands out in the crowd with reasonable criticism of the policies of President Donald Trump. On the 17th of January, Fox & Friends hosted a studio audience and asked questions about different themes of the day. On 16 January, four Americans were killed by a suicide bomber in Syria, and ISIS claimed responsibility. But it was Kilmeade who recalled the current state of ISIS saying “clearly they are not dead,” which was a rather sharp rebuke to claim that “ISIS is defeated” in a speech made by Vice President Mike Pence in December 2018.
