Mike Emanuel currently serves as the Chief Congressional correspondent for FOX News Channel (FNC). Previously, Emanuel was a White House correspondent and a national security correspondent for the network.
For a period during 2010, Emanuel filled in at the Pentagon and traveled with Defense Secretary Robert Gates to Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. The trip also included a one-on-one interview with Secretary Gates. During the first year of the Obama administration, Emanuel traveled extensively on White House trips domestically. Emanuel was on Air Force One when President Obama traveled to Fort Hood to attend a memorial Service for 13 soldiers killed in an attack there.
As the Bush administration was leaving office in January 2009, Emanuel secured the final cable news interview with former Vice President Dick Cheney. Additionally, he conducted an exclusive interview with President Bush on July 4, 2008. Emanuel also covered President Bush’s trip to the 2007 G-8 Summit in Heiligendamm, Germany. Throughout the President’s six-country trip, Emanuel was the only broadcast journalist in Rome to attend President Bush’s first meeting with Pope Benedict XVI at the Vatican.
Prior to being assigned to the White House, Emanuel provided live coverage from the Pentagon when U.S. troops in Iraq killed Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi. He also provided extensive coverage on the execution of former dictator Saddam Hussein.
During his tenure at FNC, Emanuel has reported on a variety of stories including the legal troubles of former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay and the Iraqi elections while embedded with U.S. troops at Camp Liberty, west of Baghdad. On the second anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks against the United States, Emanuel secured a rare interview with then Secretary of Homeland Security Tom Ridge. During 2003's Operation Iraqi Freedom, Emanuel spent a month reporting from Kuwait City, and later he provided numerous reports on national security, including stories filed from Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Emanuel joined FNC in 1997 as a Los Angeles-based correspondent and later served as a Dallas-based correspondent. He has also worked as a correspondent for FOX News Edge, the network’s affiliate news service.
Before joining FOX News, Emanuel worked for KCAL-TV, a local independent station in Los Angeles, covering breaking news in Southern California. Prior to that, he reported extensively from Texas where he worked for the ABC, NBC and FOX Affiliates in Midland, Waco and Austin. While in Texas, Emanuel covered local and state politics, including the 1994 gubernatorial race.
Emanuel earned his bachelor’s degree in communications from Rutgers University where he worked as a play-by-play radio announcer for Rutgers athletics on WRSU-radio.
