Education
Crowley holds a B.A. in Political Science from Colgate University and a Ph.D. in International Relations from Columbia University (2000). The title of her doctoral dissertation was Clearer than truth: Determining and preserving grand strategy. The evolution of American policy toward the People's Republic of China under Truman and Nixon.
Career
Writing
Crowley began written correspondence with former President Richard Nixon while attending Columbia which led to the two meeting. She had the opportunity to continue her education at Villanova University but instead accepted a position as a research assistant for Nixon.[1] Nixon promoted her to Foreign Policy Assistant in 1990 because he appreciated her foreign policy opinions. She was an editorial adviser and consultant on his last two books, Seize the Moment (1992) and Beyond Peace (1994). She held the position until Nixon's death in 1994. Crowley used this period to record her conversations and observations about Nixon (she kept a diary), and she published two subsequent books on the former President in his final years: Nixon Off the Record: His Candid Commentary on People (1996) and Nixon in Winter (1998).
Crowley was accused of plagiarism in 1999 for an article she authored entitled "The Day Nixon Said Goodbye", which appeared in The Wall Street Journal. After accusations of plagiarism from at least one reader, the "Journal" published an acknowledgment of "striking similarities" between Crowley's article and an article by Paul Johnson entitled "In Praise of Richard Nixon" that had appeared in the October 1988 issue of Commentary. A Journal editor stated, "Had we known of the parallels, we would not have published the article. While acknowledging the "clear similarities in the language" between the pieces, Crowley said "I have wracked my brain, and I can honestly tell you that I have not read [Johnson's article]." An article in Slate detailed five specific passages in Crowley's article that contained identical language and phraseology to Johnson's piece.
In the mid-1990s Crowley wrote a column for the New York Post. She has written for The New Yorker[5], the Wall Street Journal, the LA Times, the Baltimore Sun, and the Washington Times.
She was a term member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
Radio
Crowley was a commentator for National Public Radio's "Morning Edition" in the mid-1990s.[citation needed] Since 2002, Crowley has had her own radio show, The Monica Crowley Show, which originally had been on weekends on Westwood One and then moved to Talk Radio Network first on Saturdays and then on weekdays 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm ET. Beginning in July 2009, The Monica Crowley Show went back to its former weekend-only format and has been available as a podcast on iTunes. Talk Radio Network cites various commitments on the part of Crowley that have made it hard for her to continue the daily show.
Television
In 1996, she joined Fox News Channel, where she was a foreign affairs and political analyst. She received her doctorate in international relations from Columbia University during this period. She substituted several times for Sean Hannity on Fox News Channel's Hannity & Colmes.
In 2004, she joined MSNBC's Connected: Coast to Coast with co-host Ron Reagan. After a nine-month run, the last show aired on December 9, 2005. Following the cancellation of Connected: Coast to Coast, MSNBC announced that Crowley would anchor a program in the noon hour. That program never debuted.
She has appeared as a recurring guest on Imus in the Morning and has hosted MSNBC's broadcast of The Best of Imus in the Morning. On October 31, 2005, Crowley appeared on The Colbert Report.
In mid 2007, Crowley returned as a contributor to Fox News Channel. She has been a regular participant on The McLaughlin Group since late 2007, taking the seat formerly occupied by conservative journalist Tony Blankley.
Some of Monica Crowley's statements to a TV audience drew international attention. On December 8, 2008 on The O'Reilly Factor, she gave her opinion about the social situation in the capital of the Netherlands, stating that "Amsterdam is a cesspool of corruption, crime. Everything is out of control. It's anarchy. Her remark provoked several public rebuttals from Dutch citizens and was widely reflected in the blogosphere.[citation needed]
Crowley is a regular panelist on Fox News channel's late-night satire show Red Eye w/ Greg Gutfeld. On March 17, 2009, the panel engaged in a controversial discussion about Canada's military and Federal Police force. Calling the segment "crass" and "insensitive," Canadian Defence Minister Peter MacKay called on Fox News and the panelists for an apology. Both Crowley and host Greg Gutfield swiftly provided apologies.
