Jesse Watters says Fox News host Pete Hegseth “speaks for white America” Written by Media Matters Staff Published 01/18/24 6:18 PM EST Video file Citation From the January 18, 2024, edition of Fox News' The Five JESSE WATTERS (HOST): Now, Joy Reid -- Greg, you know how I detest cable news hosts making broad, sweeping generalizations about demographic groups. She does not speak for white America. Pete Hegseth speaks for white America. The guy's been in every suburban diner in this country and I don't think she's ever been to a suburban diner. Has she been to Iowa? Joy Reid's at her desk in Manhattan every day of the week. The only time she sees a MAGA Republican is probably when she walks into NBC News headquarters and passes the security guard.
