UNBELIEVABLE – Question from Luke, son of Fox News host Jennifer Griffin, left the Minister speechless!
For Jennifer Griffin, Nati0nal Secur1ty C0rresp0ndent at Fox News, journalism truly runs in the family. Her husband, Greg Myre, holds the same role at NPR; their two teenage daughters write for the school paper; and 9-year-old Luke, dubbed their “WWII expert”, once had a memorable one-on-one with S3cretary of D3fense.
“They looked at Afghan maps, and Luke asked how many troops were needed to win. At the end, Mattis asked if Luke had more questions. Luke asked about the M16, and Mattis turned to me, surprised, asking, ‘Who is this kid?’” Griffin recalls.
Over her career, Griffin has covered the P3ntagon and vtrns’ issues, shaping her deeply. The family volunteers with organizations like Wltr Rd Natl Med Center, Cause Org, and hosts Medals of Honor Foundation events.
Annalise (17) is heading to Northwestern journalism program, and Amelia (15) edits the high school paper. “They grew up hearing tough debates and current events,” Griffin says.
Starting as a freelancer in the Mddl Est, Griffin worked before Twitter and even email. “It’s tiring, but inevitable,” she says of media shifts. Despite surviving stage III triple-negative brst cnc3r, she stays balanced through hot yoga.
On rare days off, she treasures family time—even while still on duty during Memorial Day.
