Brittany Bade is a passionate, ambitious, and creative storyteller. She is currently an evening anchor and reporter for FOX New Mexico.
Brittany's favorite parts of her job are learning something new every day, meeting new people and telling stories that make a difference. In her nearly three years anchoring in New Mexico, she has anchored election nights and breaking news situations, including two mass shootings and a deadly in-bounds avalanche, all while reporting daily.
In the field, Brittany uncovered a botched investigation that let a convicted felon walk free and told the story of a high school senior who became her brother with Autism's primary caretaker following their parents' deaths. The coverage helped raise over $40,000 for the teens.

Brittany began her career in Knoxville, Tennessee at Tegna's WBIR. In her two years there, she anchored the weekend morning newscasts and covered national breaking news events like the fatal fires in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Gatlinburg, the school bus crash that killed six students in Chattanooga, and the random shooting death of a teenage hero who died shielding his friends from the shots.
A Phoenix native, Brittany graduated as the "Outstanding Undergraduate Student" from the esteemed Walter Cronkite School of Journalism at Arizona State in 2015 and went straight to her first job in a top 60 market.
In her spare time, Brittany loves being outdoors, especially while skiing, playing with her dachshund, volunteering, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
She also received second place for the state of New Mexico in a very close, competitive, and important race of "Local Newswomen with the Best Hair" contest.
