Mother of Fox News entertainment host Jesse Watters calls in live on air:
“Now let’s aim to have you keep your job… Do not tumble into any conspiracy rabbit holes… Perhaps you could suggest that your people take less interest, for example, in other people’s bodies and talk about that.”
Tucker Carlson, the previous regular Fox News host at 8 p.m., was fired earlier this year after the network agreed to a massive $787.5 million legal settlement with Dominion Voting Systems. The company’s lawsuit accused Carlson and others of spreading false 2020 presidential election conspiracy theories.
Dr. Anne Watters, a child psychologist with a progressive political stance that starkly contrasts with that of her conservative son, called in to Jesse Watters Primetime for an on-air chat with him on Monday. She congratulated her son for hosting his show’s first broadcast in the 8 p.m. time slot.
After being introduced by her son as “a Democrat,” Anne Watters suggested that he could suffer a similar fate as Carlson. She offered him a list of suggestions to help keep his job—including giving up “Biden bashing” and cutting back on coverage of Hunter Biden’s laptop scandal.
“Congratulations, honeybun, we are so proud of you and your accomplishments,” Anne Watters said. “Now let’s aim to have you keep your job. And to that end, I do have some suggestions.” The next item for Watters to adhere to: “do no harm.”
“We need you to be kind and respectful,” she told the 20-year Fox veteran, who just last month called homeless people “bags of flesh mutating on the sidewalk.”
“Use your voice responsibly to promote conversation that maintains a narrative thread,” she urged. “There really has been enough Biden bashing and the laptop is old. Perhaps you could suggest that your people take less interest, for example, in other people’s bodies and talk about that.”
Watters didn’t seem too enthused by that idea, though, and attempted to wrap up the call, but to no avail.
His mother pressed on by suggesting that, to the extent that Watters has the ear of Donald Trump, he encourage “that Bedminster friend of yours” to go back to having a television show.
“Everyone in his audience could wear a red hat, and I’m sure the ratings would soar, although never as high, my darling, as yours on Jesse Watters Primetime,” she said toward the end of the two-minute call. “Good luck!”
