Julie Banderas Career
Banderas began her career at Boston’s WLVI-TV. She later worked as a local news anchorwoman for WHSV-TV in Harrisonburg, VA; WBRE-TV in Wilkes-Barre, PA; WFSB-TV in Hartford, CT; and WNYW in New York City.
Banderas began working for Fox News Channel as a general assignment reporter in March 2005.
She took over as Fox Report Weekend anchorwoman in 2008, succeeding Laurie Dhue. Harris Faulkner took over her responsibilities after she went on maternity leave in 2010. She returned to Fox News from maternity leave near the end of 2010 and was promoted to general news correspondent.
She gained international media attention in June 2006 for her infamous on-air confrontation with Shirley Phelps-Roper, former spokeswoman for the Westboro Baptist Church, in which she later stated, “These people should be arrested, and I understand the right to protest, but when you disgrace not only our fallen soldiers but when you disgrace innocent young children, I swear. Lock ’em up. Throw away the key. Give ’em the death penalty. I think it‘s disgusting.”
Banderas incorrectly stated on the air in January 2022 that the bipartisan infrastructure bill of 2021 had not been passed (the bill was signed into law on November 15, 2021).
She later tweeted that she “misspoke” on the air and that what she meant to say was that the Fern Hollow Bridge collapsed on the day of the broadcast, despite the fact that President Biden had “tout[ed] the bipartisan bill back in June.”
