Meghan McCain Expresses Ongoing Discontent with Seth Meyers on Podcast
Meghan McCain renews her four-year-old feud with Seth Meyers, labeling her 2019 interview on his show as "one of the worst experiences" of her life during a podcast discussion about the media with Sen. Ted Cruz.
- Meghan McCain described her 2019 appearance on Seth Meyers' talk show as one of the worst experiences of her life during the second episode of her new podcast.
- The feud between McCain and Meyers started when the host brought up Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, who McCain had criticized for making comments about Israel she viewed as antisemitic.
- Meyers argued that discussing differences in Israeli policy shouldn't automatically be equated with antisemitism and pointed out that Omar had already apologized for her statements, sparking McCain's ire.
- During the podcast, McCain emphasized that her husband, Ben Domenech, had defended her after the Meyers incident by tweeting that Meyers only had his show because he 'gargled Lorne Michaels' balls.'
- Although Domenech later apologized for his aggressive tweets against Meyers and deleted them, neither he nor McCain appear to have softened their views on the late-night host.
