In addition to her contributor role, she is also a columnist for OutKick and will continue to host her bi-weekly podcast alongside Vic Matus entitled “Getting Hammered”, where they break down what’s happening in the news, whether it's politics, pop culture or parenting.

A prominent journalist, author and speaker, Ham co-moderated a Republican presidential primary debate in 2016 for ABC News alongside David Muir, Martha Raddatz and Josh McElveen. In 2015, she co-authored the book “End of Discussion: How the Left’s Outrage Industry Shuts Down Debate, Manipulates Voters, and Makes America Less Free (and Fun)” with FOX News Radio’s Guy Benson. She has also written for a number of publications including The Atlantic, USA Today and the New York Post.

Ham previously was a FOX News contributor from 2007-2015. She went on to serve as a CNN contributor, departing the network after being suspended in 2022 for speaking out against then-legal contributor Jeffrey Toobin and his Zoom scandal.
