The Biden administration is demanding that Fox News apologize to its viewers over host Jesse Watters’ remarks that he’s “had it” with Arab-Americans and Muslims, noting that his “unacceptable remarks” come just weeks after a 6-year-old Palestinian-American boy was murdered.
During Wednesday’s broadcast of the right-wing network’s highly rated show The Five, Watters launched into a vicious rant about “the Muslim world” that featured him complaining about how “we made them rich” while seemingly advocating for violence against Arab-Americans.
“We’ve had it with them!” Watters shouted, referencing the recent spate of anti-Israel protesters tearing down hostage posters. “And so, if you’re an Arab American in this country, and you rip down posters of Jewish hostages, American hostages—no. No, no, no. Someone is going to get punched in the face.”
