What I don't like is talking points.

You have to understand that Roger Ailes was a king. He was on the cover of multiple industry publications as the most powerful man in news. And at Fox News, there was no one else with power. So you didn't want to get on the wrong side of him because he was actually beloved inside the building and very well-liked in the industry.

My dad died of a heart attack when I was 15. I was bullied mercilessly in middle school. I went through a divorce - those not-so-great things are all a part of me, and they give me a place to go when I cover those stories on the news. I'm more empathetic, more relatable because of them.

I never felt that I had the natural intellectual gifts that the people who graduate first in their class from Harvard Law had.

Television is a service, but it's also a business.

I have respect for my fellow journalists at the other networks, and I wish them all well. This is a tough business, so good for them.

I'm the worst tweeter ever. I don't know what I'm doing. I really don't.

I'm a struggling guitar player.

Men should have more time with their newborn babies.

The truth is I don't watch a lot of news, except for when I'm here at the office watching Fox News. I get my news online primarily when I'm not watching the channel.

I don't even watch Fox News usually in the prime time hours because I'm home with my kids and that's more important to me.

Television can be a very fickle place.

As a lawyer, I could engage in killer litigation with the best of them. It was war, after all.

When I went to law school, which I put myself through for $100,000 dollars of debt, I didn't expect anybody to pay for my health insurance, which I had none of. No health insurance.

Typically, you get a year in prison for making a threat to assassinate the president.

I still don't consider myself a fashion girl.

Before I got into TV, I wasn't fashionable at all.

If you're wearing a pair of shoes that's a little flashy, then it's important not to be flashy up top and vice versa.

I'm not a barbarian.

Just because you might have a sparring match on the air doesn't mean there's any personal animosity.

You know, I was not an attractive child - I never had a cute face.

Obviously, I'm in a visual business, and people will talk to me about my appearance.

I'm steeped in the news because I enjoy the news - I like reading papers, I like reading the blogs, I love talking to newsmakers and pundits, for that matter, about their opinions. I'm an information gatherer by nature, so that's what attracted me about this industry.

I want to see my kids for dinner. I want to put them down at night. I want to see their soccer games after school.

I don't see myself as some television star; I see myself as a girl from Albany.

Somebody saying something offensive to you or insulting to you is not pleasant, but it's part of life.

I think my viewers want smart, honest programming. They don't want to be told what makes them feel good.

I've lived in New York state almost my entire life, so my votes never count.

I think that 'Fox News' is fair and balanced.

This is the U.S.A., and it's the most glorious place to live in the world.

While I don't think Trump wants to target any particular minority group, I understand their fear because he spent many months stoking it.

I always feel like I want more time with my kids. But I reject the notion that you can't have it all. I think you can: just not necessarily in abundance.

Print reporters have the opportunity to go so much more in depth in certain stories than television reporters do because they're working on stories for months at a time.

Any donation does make a difference. Getting involved is what makes BBC Children in Need so moving.

Look at someone like Mary Berry, for God's sake, that woman is just such an inspiration... what's to say you can't do stuff for years and years and years?

Eurovision' lifts you off your feet - and, by that, I mean the absolute joy, total insanity and madness of the whole thing.

I'm very competitive about puns.

We have our detractors. If we didn't, that would be weird. That would make me feel, 'Oh God, we must be really bland.' You have to have detractors.

My problem with present buying is usually lack of time. Not because I'm super-busy, I'm just super-lazy. I leave everything to the last minute and end up running up and down the high street on Christmas Eve like a crazed baboon.

We all have somebody in our lives, that however closely related or not, is affected by terminal illness and these amazing nurses, who often work through the night with people, not only suffering from a terminal illness but their families, they're just extraordinary people.

You can't hurry a loaf of bread. You have to wait for it to prove and rise.

I don't have a problem with the concept of a box set per se - we have many of them merrily lined up on the shelf above the telly. No, what gives me the pip is the fact that I'm never going to watch any of them.

There are different types of double act: the classic dumb-and-dumber, like Morecambe and Wise; the good cop/bad cop, where one's a bit spiky and the other's daft. Sue Perkins and I take what we might call the Ant and Dec approach: the double act came out of our friendship.

I can't take UKIP seriously. I should, I must, it's our duty to take them seriously, because they're coming out with some really heinous old crap about immigration.

Christmas traditions are important in my family. Being half English and half Polish-Lithuanian, we have two separate celebrations.

I feel very warmly and joyfully towards BBC Children in Need.

I met Sue Perkins at the Footlights, where she brought the house down at the auditions.

At school in the 1970s, no one cared about bullying. I spent the first four years being the apple of the teachers' eye and being bullied for it.

It feels like you are in your own little bubble when you film 'Bake Off.' There is no noise, the outside world doesn't exist when we are filming. It's us, the tent and the bakers.

Only now that I'm a mum can I fully understand the terrible pressure parents feel buying presents for their kids. My mum had four children plus all of the extended family and she not only had to feed us all but she bought presents for everyone, too.
