Short questions with Dana Perino for Mark Meredith

You've seen us on screen, but have you ever wondered what we're like off-camera? 

For the last few months, I’ve enjoyed checking in with some of your favorite Fox personalities to learn more about who they are behind the scenes. 

What's the one thing Jesse Watters couldn’t live without? What's Bill Hemmer’s favorite Halloween costume? And what's sitting on Greg Gutfeld’s nightstand? 

But that's not all! The fun is just getting started.

This week, we're excited to shine the spotlight on Washington, D.C.-based correspondent Mark Meredith. He joined Fox News Channel in 2019. 

Among other assignments, Mark contributed to FNC's 2022 Midterm election coverage. Previously, he provided the latest breaking election night news from North Carolina during FNC’s Democracy 2020 election coverage, in addition to providing reports on the 2020 election cycle from various locations throughout the country. He also provided breaking news coverage of the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

P.S. We have so much more in store for you. Stay tuned each week for new editions of "Short Questions with Dana Perino" — and if there’s a question you want answers to or a suggestion for the person I should interview next, leave a note in the comments section below. 

MM: Born and raised in the Atlanta suburbs, proud Georgia bulldog — and worked my way up the ladder from Myrtle Beach to Denver to small outlets in D.C.

MM: Covering President Biden’s first flight on Air Force One was memorable, as it was my first trip on the presidential plane, too. 

It was a very short flight to Wilmington, but for me, it was a lifelong bucket list item checked off. 

I’ve done it since, but I felt like I was living the 1997 movie — just no bad guys. I couldn’t have been more excited.

MM: I would have to argue New York City, just due to the sheer selection of the wide varieties of pizza, Chinese and Italian delicacies. 

It's not that one cuisine would stand out. It’s just a city that offers everything.

MM: That’s easy. The Lincoln Memorial. 

From the majestic views of the entire mall to the historic inspiration Lincoln provides, there’s nothing else quite like it in D.C.

MM: Delta Airlines pilot — and balancing life both in the air and on the ground, I hope.

MM: I would fly and as for a name … how about the Powerful Perino? I dunno — tough question!

MM: Becoming a father, hands down. It took me a few months to find my footing, but I am so proud to be a dad.

MM: Lincoln, Kennedy and Reagan.

MM: "The Great Gatsby."

MM: Buenos Aires, Argentina. It's been on my bucket list for years and I would love to see the mix of European and South American cultures in a city without experiencing too much jetlag. 

I’m still trying to sell my wife to take the trip.

MM: Easiest question yet. The people. I was very nervous when I started — unsure what to expect. 

The people who work here have become like family and it’s the best-kept secret in the journalism industry. Fox employees are hardworking, caring and try each day to build a better product.
