He initially worked in New York and Chicago before moving to Washington D.C. in 2010. In 2014, he conducted a widely acclaimed TV interview with former Navy SEAL Robert J, O’Neill who asserted that he was responsible for firing the shot that killed Osama bin Laden. This exclusive interview received the record-breaking ratings of any documentary in Fox News history.
In October 2017, Peter asked Senator John McCain (R-AZ), inquiring, “Has your relationship with the president frayed to the extent that you would refuse to support any requests he brings to you?” McCain retorted, “Why would you make such a foolish statement? Why ask something that dumb, huh? … That’s a dumb question.” Moreover, Doocy was the campaign reporter in the 2018 mid-term elections.
Doocy covered the 2020 Democratic Party presidential primaries and the presidential campaign of Joe Biden, who eventually became the party’s nominee, as a reporter.

As Peter was leaving a White House East Room conference on economic competitiveness and inflation, he shouted a question to President Biden about whether he thought inflation will be a political liability in the midterm elections. According to ABC, Biden answered sarcastically, stating, “It’s a great asset — more inflation.” He then shook his head and said, “What a stupid son of a bitch,” as he lowered his voice and turned away from the microphone beneath him. It’s unclear whether Biden meant for his remarks to be caught up by the microphone. Within an hour, Biden contacted Doocy to clarify his statements, reportedly saying, “It’s nothing personal, pal.”
