Fox News Finds a New Voice: Beleaguered Miss California Lands Guest Host Spot on 'Fox & Friends'
Miss California and Miss USA runner-up, Carrie Prejean, tossed around in the battle over gay marriage, will be a one-day guest host for Fox News Channel's popular morning show "Fox & Friends." She will host the 6-to-7 a.m. slot on May 27, filling in for Gretchen Carlson — the 1989 Miss America — who will be off that day. The decision to make her a one-day cohost was finalized last week — the same day Prejean and Miss USA owner Donald Trump appeared on "Fox & Friends," U.S. News & World Report reports.

Suzanne Scott, Fox vice president for programming, filled me in on the details of the gig for Prejean, who was thrust into the headlines when she rejected gay marriage during the Q&A part of the pageant. "We're just using her one time," she said, "to sit with the boys and have some fun." The "boys" are co-hosts Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade. "She has become a national celebrity in the last few weeks, and it's a fun thing to do," said Scott. "It's a good way to try get a little buzz and fun for the show. We'll see what happens with it," she added, reports U.S. News writer Paul Bedard.

"Fox & Friends" has used news celebs before, and some have gone on to bigger and better things. Scott recalled using Tiki Barber on "Fox & Friends" while he was a member of the New York Giants. "He went off to become a TV star," she said. However, Scott told U.S. News, there have been no talks with Prejean about a future with Fox.

4. As I said at a conservative blog...

this whole flap was the best thing that could have happened to her. She's playing it for all she can get. Maybe she's smarter than I thought.
