WASHINGTON, D.C. – In a new article in the popular “Champion Women” series, Independent Women’s Features (IW Features), the grassroots storytelling and original journalism arm of Independent Women, highlights Rachel Campos-Duffy’s accomplishments as host of Fox Noticias, weekend “Fox & Friends” co-host, mother of nine children, and wife of U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy.
Today, October 15, marks one year of Fox Noticias, which every weekday at 4 p.m. ET brings viewers top headlines and news stories––in Spanish. “Fox & Friends Weekend” co-host and TV personality Rachel Campos-Duffy helped launch this influential program and hosts Fox Noticias, and its impact and momentum has only grown among Hispanic households across the United States.
While there are other Spanish-language news shows in the U.S., “Fox Noticias is different than those shows,” Campos-Duffy told IW Features in an exclusive interview. “We’re the only one like it because we fully embrace the conservative faith culture of the Hispanic community in a way that the others don’t.”
The one-hour show, which launched one year ago on FOX Deportes, a Spanish-language sports network in the U.S., “is needed now more than ever,” according to Campos-Duffy. Listeners can also find the show on Fox Nation and Fox News Audio.

“President Trump, in his new second presidency here, has decided to make the Western Hemisphere a big center of his foreign policy agenda, and they’re our neighbors. It’s our backyard, as we say,” Campos-Duffy said. “It’s the Trump-Monroe doctrine, and so I think that Fox Noticias is best positioned to cover that in a way that other shows have not done.”
Being a “champion woman” means “you’re following your heart,” Campos-Duffy told IW Features. This statement itself showcases Campos-Duffy’s personal and professional doctrine that guides her life.
“If your heart is telling you to be home, then that’s what you should be doing, and if your heart tells you you can contribute in the workforce in a way that doesn’t sacrifice or compromise that, then you should do that, too,” Campos-Duffy shared.

“Rachel Campos-Duffy’s dedication to her family and her career is admirable—embodying the strength and balance so many women strive for,” said Samantha Aschieris, senior contributor for Independent Women’s Features and producer of the “Champion Women” series. “Her story serves as a reminder to all women, to define success on your own terms.”
“Collaborating with Rachel over the years has been truly inspiring. Her unwavering commitment to women’s issues and passionate advocacy for the Latino community set her apart as a true leader,” said Judy Pino, an advisor on Hispanic issues and a Spanish-language spokesperson for Independent Women. “As a pioneer at Fox Noticias, she’s reshaping how the media speaks to Latinos—focusing on empowerment over victimization and giving voice to conservative American values in a fresh, authentic way. Rachel is the kind of woman who fixes another woman’s crown without telling the world it was crooked. A true champion for women everywhere.”
