Fox Star Stuns Co-Hosts by Breaking With the Right

A Fox News star stunned his own co-hosts when he broke from a conservative talking point around tributes to Confederate figures.

Brian Kilmeade, 62, surprised his Fox & Friends co-hosts Ainsley Earhardt and Lawrence Jones on Thursday when he came out against reinstating a stone highway marker in Charleston, South Carolina honoring Robert E. Lee, a Confederate general who was a major player in the Civil War.

The memorial was taken down in 2021, but suddenly reappeared in Charleston’s Marion Square last December—and Kilmeade thinks it should’ve stayed gone.
