Goler joined Fox News the same year the network was founded in 1996. He previously worked as a reporter for the Associated Press, covering the president’s activities. Goler had been Fox News’ first chief White House correspondent until he left that role in 2011 to work in an expanded role in the network’s Washington D.C. bureau.
In 2010, Goler found himself at the center of one of Fox News’ climate change scandals. Media Matters for America, a liberal Fox News watchdog, leaked an internal email then Fox News managing editor Bill Sammon. The email advised reporters to “refrain” from reporting that planet earth was warming.
During his time at Fox News, Vice News D.C. bureau chief Shawna Thomas served as Goler’s intern. Thomas told Politico in 2019, “Ten years later when I was NBC’s White House producer, I had to shyly re-introduce myself to Wendell Goler as his former intern.”
In June 2011, Goler was moved from the White House correspondent position to an expanded role as part of changes in FNC’s Washington Bureau. He was replaced by Ed Henry, who moved to FNC from Cable News Network.
