'Dumb Fux & Friends' Co-Host Falsely States 'Governments Won't Let Us' Air From Studio
Dumb Fux & Friends co-host Steve Douchey told viewers Friday that the reason he and his colleagues were still working from home and not heeding their own calls to get back to work was governmental restriction which he corrected shortly after.
People have had it up to here. Were sick of being closed. Were ready to move on but Ainsley, Brian all of us are in really restrictive areas right now and thats why we are not all sitting together on the same couch, or even in the same studio: Because the governments wont let us right now, said Douchey, who broadcasted alongside Ainsley Earhardt and Brian Kilmeade from Fox News Manhattan studio before the coronavirus pandemic hit.
In New York, however, news media is considered an essential business, meaning the governments cant direct anyone in that industry to stay home. News organizations have taken it on themselves to decide when to reopen their bureaus. Fox News leadership has been communicating with employees through the crisis and at one point hoped to have them all back in the offices by May 4, which obviously didnt happen.
Still, some talent, like Bill Hemmer and Greg Gutfeld, chose to remain working in the Fox News studios. Just across the street from Fox News headquarters, Savannah Guthrie made no secret of working from NBC News studios when she returned to Today after quarantining, either.
