Overview
- Outside the Capitol on Wednesday, producer Johnny Belisario invited Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to appear on Jesse Watters Primetime in an exchange captured on video.
- In the clip recorded by journalist Pablo Manríquez and posted by Acyn Torabi, she says Watters has sexualized and sexually harassed her on his show before walking away.
- Ocasio-Cortez later reposted the video on X, writing, “You can either be a pervert or ask me to be on your little show. Not both.”
- Her accusation references Watters’ October comment that she “wants to sleep with” Stephen Miller, a line co-host Greg Gutfeld previously called “creepy.”
- Fox News representatives had not offered comment on the exchange as of Wednesday evening, according to multiple outlets.
