During her time at Fox News, Kelly hosted America Live from 2010 to 2013 and co-anchored America's Newsroom with Bill Hemmer. She also moderated several presidential primary debates during the 2016 and 2024 election cycles. Her show The Kelly File, which aired from 2013 to 2017, focused on breaking news and political events and was one of the network’s top-rated programs.
