Brian Kilmeade and the Fox & Friends producers were evidently caught off guard when a guest, Kymberleigh Richards, turned out to be obviously transgendered. Kilmeade introduced her by saying, “He, uh, she is a public and legislative affairs director for Southern California transit advocates.” Richards was there to discuss governmental waste in the LA transit system. Governmental waste is always a favorite on Fox – unless you’ve got a transgendered guest. Every time Richards began talking, the producers went to B-roll footage. Although Richards was clearly knowledgeable and well-spoken about the subject, Kilmeade hurried her through her talking points, apparently hoping to end the interview as soon as possible without looking like something was wrong. (H/T Marlowe C.)


Brian's obvious discomfort is a HOOT!


What's amazing is that they only show the guest's face ONCE at the beginning, only to show pointless stock footage from there on out. It's like she didn't even exist. Strange TV interview with a public official indeed.
