What Happened When Camryn Kinsey Fainted Live On Air
A frightening moment aired live on Fox News @ Night Thursday, leaving viewers shocked and concerned. Political commentator Camryn Kinsey suddenly fainted mid-sentence while discussing President Biden’s latest remarks—right there on national TV.
In the clip, Kinsey struggles to stay focused, blinking excessively and losing her train of thought. She said, “This is about incompetency, it’s not about uh, uh, ideology,” before falling off her chair, unconscious.
Host Trace Gallagher immediately reacted with alarm, gasping on air: “Oh my goodness, we’re just going to get some help here for Camryn.” The screen quickly cut to a commercial, leaving audiences hanging in suspense.

“We want to give you a quick update. Camryn is up and moving. We have paramedics checking her. We will keep you updated. We wish her all the best.”
Fox News followed up with a statement, confirming the moment was indeed real and serious:
”‘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. We are happy to hear she is now feeling much better and wish her a speedy recovery.”
