Ken LaCorte
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ken LaCorte (born February 5, 1965) is an executive at the Fox News Channel. In 2006, the network sent him to Gaza to press for the release of kidnapped journalists Steve Centanni and Olaf Wiig. [1]
LaCorte graduated from Claremont McKenna College in 1987. In the late '80s and early '90s, he worked as a media consultant for over a hundred companies and candidates in the U.S. and abroad, including presidential campaigns in Colombia, Guatemala and Venezuela.
In 1997, he challenged California law by publishing the state's Megan's Law list. Despite a warning from the state's attorney general, LaCorte hand copied the state's high risk sex offenders and published them online. In 2004, California officially published the Megan's Law database on the internet.[2]
LaCorte became the Western Region Bureau Chief for the Fox News Channel in 1999 and the national Director of News Editorial in 2003.
