Now, you have to understand that on Fox we cover much more international news than you'd typically see on the networks, and some of it was relatively obscure to the average person. Shortly after I joined Fox News, I was filling in on an after noon show when there was breaking international news. Never mind that I'd graduated with honors at Stanford or studied at Oxford.

Long before I started working for Fox, I had to put up with the dumb blonde label, based solely on having been Miss America. I’ve learned that sometimes when people don’t like what you have to say, and don’t want to debate you on ideas, it’s just easier to call you a dumb blonde from Fox News. I still scratch my head trying to figure out how being blonde became synonymous in some people’s minds with being dumb, or why attractive women are assumed not to be smart, but I don’t waste my abundant brain cells trying to figure these things out. I can joke about it, because it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that the characterization has more to do with silly attitudes and stereotypes than with who I am or whether or not I’m smart. I say that with tongue in cheek, but I may have achieved a Google record for being called dumb or a bimbo. I like to joke that when I joined Fox News I hit the “bimbo trifecta”: Former Miss America.
