Fox News’ Laura Ingraham: Reporting Sexual Harassment and Assault Might Kill Christmas Party Fun (Video)
‘Is the #MeToo Movement Becoming a Spoiler?’
Donald Trump super-fan and conservative Fox News host Laura Ingraham is concerned that the #MeToo Movement might be “killing all the fun of Christmas.â€
“The Ingraham Angle†host began a Friday night segment, perhaps refreshed from spreading falsehoods about the Masterpiece Cakeshop Case, with concern about all of the brave individuals who have come forward to report sexual assault or harassment.
“Is the #MeToo Movement becoming a spoiler for this season’s Christmas parties?†she asked before introducing stand-up comic Jimmy Failla.
“I’m not a big office Christmas party person myself,†Ingraham told Failla. “But I can see this year, it might be a little less… festive, let’s just say that. No alcohol, no fun, no lampshades, no nothin’ – and I dunno, maybe that’s better. But is this just killing all the fun of Christmas?â€
As ShareBlue Media pointed out, the duo began discussing Vox’s announcement that it had imposed a two-drink limit at their office Christmas parties. Failla then advised that attendees may simply drink more before the Christmas party and Ingraham “joked†about needing two drinks to read material from the outlet.

As NCRM has reported, Ingraham has a long and ugly history of making anti-LGBT, anti-women, anti-immigrant and racist remarks. This week was no different.
This year, Fox News host Eric Bolling became the latest personality to depart the network after allegations of inappropriate behavior. Last summer, Fox News co-founder and former Chairman and CEO Roger Ailes was forced to resign amidst allegations of unwanted sexual advances—and the network also cut ties with Bill O’Reilly after a half-dozen women accused the former Fox host of sexual harassment.
