Fox News commentator Camryn Kinsey became the latest in a long line of TV presenters to collapse suddenly during a live broadcast since the roll out of the COVID mRNA vaccines, leaving host Jonathan Hunt visibly stunned as crew members rushed to her aid on-air.
During a “Fox News @ Night” segment on May 8, Kinsey was discussing recent remarks from former President Joe Biden, when she appeared to lose her train of thought before losing consciousness and falling from her chair.
“This is about incompetency, it’s not about uh, uh, uh, ideology,” she said, referring to recent comments made by Biden claiming Kamala Harris lost the 2024 election to Trump due to sexism in America.

The “uhs” continued as Kinsey struggled to speak, then she collapsed from her chair, hitting the studio floor hard.

Host Jonathan Hunt reacted with surprise as distressed crew members ran out to help, saying: “Oh my goodness, we’re just going to get some help here for Camryn.”
Hunt then attempted to throw the segment back to another commentator before, clearly flustered, decided instead to throw to an emergency commercial break. Watch:
USA Today report: While neither Kinsey nor Fox has yet revealed the cause of her fall, Hunt did assure viewers after the commercial break that she had regained consciousness.
“We want to give you a quick update. Camryn is up and moving,” he told viewers. “We have paramedics checking her. We will keep you updated. We wish her all the best.”
Fox echoed that sentiment in a statement shared with USA TODAY May 9.
“After ‘Fox News @ Night’ guest Camryn Kinsey fainted during a live on-air appearance last night in our Los Angeles bureau, paramedics were called and she was treated and cleared,” a Fox News spokesperson wrote. “We are happy to hear she is now feeling much better and wish her a speedy recovery.”
Kinsey, who appears sometimes as a political pundit on Fox, briefly served as the external relations director in the White House presidential personnel office under President Donald Trump.
Serving for six months during Trump’s first term, she went on to work as a White House correspondent and reporter at One America News Network.
