On the June 14 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, after Steve Doocy talked about the gender integration of the Navy Sea Chanters, co-host Brian Kilmeade made a sexist comment that caused co-host Gretchen Carlson to walk off the set. From Fox & Friends:

KILMEADE: Women are everywhere. We're letting them play golf and tennis now. It's out of control.

CARLSON: You know what? You know what.

KILMEADE: She's out.

CARLSON: You read the headlines. Since men are so great. Go ahead. Take them away.

KILMEADE: All right. Finally.

CARLSON: Take them away.

KILMEADE: OK.

CARLSON: Go ahead.

KILMEADE: Leaving an all male crew.

CARLSON: In all your glory, go for it.

1. It was fake.

We have real problem in this country and the media clutches pearls over Gretchen Carlson?

Maybe....it's me that's crazy.

But I don't think so

2. But Brian Kilmeade being a pus puddle?

That's VERY real!

5. I agree with your take on it.

This was a FOX propaganda stunt intended to alleviate their and by extension Republicans' piss poor standing among women.

3. It really sounds scripted.

4. I'm sure it's fake. Because if it were true she would have come right back with coffee and

sandwiches for all. As any good self hating Stepford moron would.

6. She was laughing in a wingnut-one-of-the-boys way all the way through.

She's a true wingnut.

7. Gretchen Carlson

is always in a state of faux outrage - usually directed at President Obama. She is a complete plastic dolt. She slept her way to the top - allegedly - by screwing her way right out of the Richmond market with her married co-anchor.
I always try to remember that when she gets on her soapbox about Christian persecution and other made up nonsense. I really think she believes the president is a "secret muslin."
