Fox News host Jesse Watters received an endearing surprise call from his mom on national TV during his debut live segment, following his takeover of Tucker Carlson’s primetime slot.
“Congratulations, honeybun. We are so proud of you and your accomplishments… Now, let’s aim to have you keep your job. And to that end, I do have some suggestions,” Watters’ mom says during the call. “Do not tumble into any conspiracy rabbit holes. We do not want to lose you and we want no lawsuits, OK?”
Fox News fired Carlson earlier this year due to a $787.5 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems, following a lawsuit alleging false statements and conspiracy theories about the 2020 election. Unlike Carlson, Watters has remained devoted to Fox for over two decades, steadily working his way up within the company.
