Rick Leventhal joined FOX News Channel (FNC) as a reporter in 1997 and now serves as a senior correspondent based in New York City. Before joining FNC, he spent 10 years as a reporter and anchor in local news markets including: Columbia, Spartanburg, West Palm Beach, Miami and Chicago.
Most recently, Leventhal reported from the scene in Boston while the tragic marathon bombing news unfolded. Throughout his career at FNC, Leventhal has extensively covered the Middle East. He's been to war zones nearly two dozen times, including: five trips to Iraq, four to Afghanistan, eight to Israel, two trips to Libya, and tours of Albania and Macedonia during the Kosova War. In 2003, Leventhal spent nine weeks in Kuwait and Iraq, embedded with the United States Marine Corps' 3rd Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, where he joined the Sinners and Saints of the 2nd Battalion and 23rd Marines. Leventhal also played an integral role on the coverage of 9/11. On September 11th, he was one of the first reporters on the scene at the World Trade Center and the first to go live, before the Twin Towers fell to the ground. Later that year, he traveled to Bahrain and Afghanistan to cover the launch of the War on Terror and in 2011 contributed to the 10-Year Commemoration of 9/11.
Additionally, Leventhal has reported on a variety of breaking news stories such as the death and funeral of Pope John Paul II and the selection of his successor in the Vatican City, and the killing of Osama Bin Laden. Most recently, Leventhal reported live from the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. He also spent significant time covering the 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and has been dispatched to numerous natural disasters over the years including: Hurricanes Isaac, Katrina, Rita, Andrew and Hugo, as well as the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti. Furthermore, he reported live from the Miracle on the Hudson and later, on Captain "Sully" Sullenberger's return to flight.
