Fox News guest Camryn Kinsey shares update after fainting on live TV
Fox News guest Camryn Kinsey is sharing an update after a scary on-air incident.
Kinsey, a political commentator who fainted live on the network during a May 8 appearance on "Fox News @ Night," told the New York Post she is scheduled to return to Fox News this week. She explained the "shocking" health scare was likely the result of "severe" dehydration.
"I'm grateful my shoulder actually broke the fall, so there's no concussion or bruising," she said. "It was hard to hear my family so concerned, and I can only imagine what that looks like in real time − for my family and my friends and everyone watching."
Kinsey, 24, also told the New York Post that the incident was "very scary," but she "felt worse for the audience and the Fox News crew that was helping me than I did myself."
In a previous post on X the day after she fainted, Kinsey, former external relations director in the White House presidential personnel office under President Donald Trump, said she was "doing well." She thanked the "incredible Fox News team and the EMTs who responded with such speed and care" during the "unexpected and frightening moment."

"To everyone who has called, texted, prayed, or checked in, thank you from the bottom of my heart," she said. "Your support has meant the world. I'm taking it slow, staying hydrated, letting my body rest, and thanking the Lord that everything is okay. It may not have been how I planned to end the segment, but I'll be back on your TV soon. Hopefully long enough to finally finish my point about Kamala!"
USA TODAY has reached out to Fox News for an update.
During the segment, Kinsey fainted while she was addressing comments by former President Joe Biden about why former Vice President Kamala Harris lost the 2024 presidential election. After Kinsey fell out of her chair, host Jonathan Hunt told viewers that "we're just going to get some help here for Camryn" and went to a commercial break.

After the break, Hunt shared an update that Kinsey was "up and moving," adding, "We have paramedics checking her. We will keep you updated. We wish her all the best."
In a previous statement shared with USA TODAY, a Fox News spokesperson said, "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. We are happy to hear she is now feeling much better and wish her a speedy recovery."
On her X account, Kinsey has already made light of the moment by turning it into a meme. She shared photos of herself fainting on the air along with the caption, "Kamala when it's time to visit the border."

Three British nationals could face death by firing squad for allegedly smuggling cocaine into Indonesia
Three British nationals could face death by a firing squad after they allegedly smuggled about a kilogram – over two pounds – of cocaine onto the island of Bali in Indonesia. The Associated Press reported that prosecutor I Made Dipa Umbara said 28-year-old Jonathan Christopher Collyer and 29-year-old Lisa Ellen Stocker were arrested Feb. 1, after customs officers stopped them at the X-ray machine when they found suspicious items disguised as food packages inside their luggage. Umbara told the District Court in Denpasar during a court hearing on Tuesday that a lab test result confirmed 10 pouches of "Angel Delight" powdered dessert mix in Collyer's luggage, along with seven similar pouches in Stocker's suitcase contained 993.56 grams, or 2.19 pounds, of cocaine, worth about 6 billion rupiah ($368,000). Two days after Collyer and Stocker were arrested, police arrested 31-year-old Phineas Ambrose Float after a delivery sting set up by law enforcement that involved the other two suspects handing the drug to him in the parking lot of a hotel in Denpasar.

Read On The Fox News App The cocaine was transported from England to Indonesia by way of the Doha International Airport in Qatar, Umbara explained. The trio successfully smuggled cocaine into Bali on two previous occasions before being stopped on their third attempt, Ponco Indriyo, the deputy director of the Bali Police Narcotics Unit, said during a news conference in Denpasar on Feb. 7.

In Indonesia, drug smugglers are sometimes executed by way of a firing squad. A panel of three judges adjourned the trial until June 10, when the court will listen to testimony from witnesses. Noem Calls For The Death Penalty Following Maritime Human Smuggling Attempt That Left Child Dead According to the Ministry of Immigration and Corrections, there are currently 530 people on death row in Indonesia, including 96 foreigners, mostly for drug-related crimes, the AP reported. The last executions in Indonesia were of an Indonesian and three foreigners, which were carried out in July 2016. Lindsay Sandiford, 69, from Great Britain, has been on death row in Indonesia for over a decade. Sandiford was arrested in 2012 after she was discovered to be in possession of more than eight pounds of cocaine in the lining of her luggage at Bali's airport. The highest court in Indonesia upheld the death sentence for Sandiford in 2013. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime says Indonesia is a major drug-smuggling hub despite having some of the strictest drug laws in the world, in part because international drug syndicates target its young population.
