He has been a key part of network's coverage of campaign 2008, the Iraq war and most other major stories since 1999. Henican's early television experience included co-hosting a weekly transit program on NY1, New York's all-news channel. His weekly "Culture Clash" segments—an irreverent look at television, movies and pop-culture trends - were a popular daytime feature on the USA Network.
