Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shut down a Fox News producer in blunt fashion after being pressed to appear on Jesse Watters’ show, citing past comments she described as sexually harassing and exploitative. When the producer denied her claims, Ocasio-Cortez fired back with specifics, referencing a prior on-air remark in which Watters crudely speculated about her sexual interest in a Trump adviser — a comment so inflammatory it drew discomfort even from his own co-hosts. The exchange underscored Fox News’ long-running issues with misogyny and harassment, as well as Ocasio-Cortez’s refusal to legitimize a platform she says has repeatedly demeaned her.
