BWHAHAHA: FOX & FIENDS Gretchen Carlson Walks Off Set - Sexist Brian Kilmeade, "SHE NEEDED A SHOWER"

FEMALE FOX ANCHOR WALKS OFF SET AFTER CO-HOST’S SEXIST JOKE

On Fox & Friends Thursday morning, Steve Doocy interviewed members of the U.S. Navy Band about the band’s recent inclusion of women. Reacting to the segment, Brian Kilmeade remarked, “Women are everywhere. We’re letting them play golf and tennis now. It’s out of control.” Visibly upset, Gretchen Carlson, the only female host, walked off of the set. “You read the headlines. Since men are so great. Take them away,” she said. Kilmeade responded, “All right. Finally.” Then, as she walked further off of the set, Kilmeade jeered, “Leaving an all male crew” and added “she needed a shower.”

6. I agree...

I think she got up too fast, usually a person has to think about what was said... and then react..she just got up and left without even to blink once... probably scripted.

No doubt at all that it was scripted, they couldn't even keep straight faces while doing it.

Based on the principle that if you're watching "Fox and friends," you've probably got a touch of the ol' Stockholm Syndrome...

On re-watching: Definitely scripted. Ah well.
