    Tell Fox News to Fire Jesse Watters

    Tell Fox News to Fire Jesse Watters

    The petition to Jay Wallace, President and Executive Editor of FOX News Media, reads:

    On July 16, Fox News host Jesse Watters gleefully laughed while discussing Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's proposal for testosterone testing in the military, saying that women on military bases and 'women in Asia' need to 'watch out' because soldiers would become 'wild animals.'

    This is completely unacceptable. A national TV host laughing while suggesting soldiers will sexually assault women isn't funny--it's disgusting. As a viewer, I am demanding accountability.

    These latest comments by Jesse Watters are not an isolated incident. Jesse Watters has a long history of sexist, racist, and offensive behavior--behavior that Fox News continues to reward with a national platform. 

    I am calling on Fox News Media to immediately fire Jesse Watters and make clear that joking about violence against women has no place on your network. 

    Survivors deserve better. Your viewers deserve better. 


    Rape threats are not jokes. 

    On July 16, Fox News host Jesse Watters laughed while saying women on military bases and "women in Asia" need to "watch out" because U.S. soldiers would become "wild animals" under Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's proposed testosterone testing policy.

    Like too many personalities at Fox News, Jesse Watters has built his brand on rage bait--deliberately saying sexist, racist, and offensive things to get headlines and keep people talking. 

    We get it. Jesse Watters desperately wants attention. Well, now he's got ours. We refuse to let a major network like Fox News keep rewarding content that turns violence against women into a joke.

    Sign the petition and tell Fox News Media President and Executive Editor Jay Wallace: Fire rape apologist Jesse Watters.
