Martha MacCallum at the Forefront of Fox News Coverage: From Trump’s Garbage Truck Moment to Election Night Plans
Martha MacCallum, a prominent anchor at Fox News, has been in the spotlight recently for her involvement in several high-profile news events. One of the most viral moments involved former President Donald Trump, who was seen sitting in a garbage truck at Green Bay Austin Straubel International Airport. In an exclusive interview on “The Story,” MacCallum spoke with Andrew Brisson, the vice president of LoadMaster, the company that provided the garbage truck. Brisson explained how a spontaneous phone call led to the unusual encounter, where Trump wore a bright orange high-visibility vest and briefly rode in the truck adorned with American flags and a “Make America Great Again” 2024 campaign decal.
In another significant interaction, MacCallum confronted Democratic Representative Debbie Dingell about her claims that Trump would put her and others in “internment camps” if reelected. During the interview, Dingell admitted that her statement was made as a joke, although she expressed genuine concern about being on Trump’s “political enemy list” and the implications of his rhetoric.
Looking ahead to the upcoming elections, MacCallum will play a key role in Fox News’ extensive coverage. Alongside Bret Baier, she will lead the network’s multiplatform coverage starting at 6 p.m. on November 5. The coverage will include immersive graphics technology, augmented reality, and contributions from various other anchors and analysts. MacCallum and Baier will be part of a comprehensive team that includes Bill Hemmer, Sandra Smith, Harris Faulkner, and several other notable figures in Fox News.
