Fox Host Reads Erick Erickson's Sexist Tweets On Air: 'Who Are You To Judge?'
Fox host Neil Cavuto called out RedState.com editor-in-chief Erick Erickson for his sexist tweets on-air on Monday.
Erickson, a Fox News contributor, had uninvited Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump from speaking at his influential RedState Gathering this past weekend after the real estate mogul's comments about Fox News host Megyn Kelly, who helped moderate last week's GOP debate. Trump attacked Kelly the day after the debate for asking him tough questions, saying she had "blood coming out of her wherever."
The comments sparked a major backlash among Republicans, and Erickson said Trump had crossed a line. But during "Your World With Neil Cavuto" on Monday, Cavuto questioned Erickson's standing on the matter, pointing out that the pundit had made some remarks of his own that many saw as sexist.
Among them, Cavuto noted, was referring to the National Association of Women as the "National Association of Gals." The host asked Erickson if he regretted that. "I have apologized for a lot of things. I don’t regret that," Erickson said. "I think a lot of feminist groups tend to prove they’re humorless. And I don’t regret some of the statements Donald Trump has pulled out.”
