Fox News Host Criticized for Mocking Paul Pelosi's Assault

Rachel Campos-Duffy's controversial remarks about the 2022 hammer attack on Paul Pelosi spark backlash during a discussion on Presidential Medal of Freedom recipients.

During a segment on 'Jesse Watters Primetime,' Campos-Duffy suggested that Paul Pelosi, instead of receiving a medal, 'needs the hammer.'
The comment was made in the context of criticizing President Biden's choices for the Presidential Medal of Freedom, which included former Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Campos-Duffy's list of alternative recipients included conservative figures and organizations, highlighting a stark political contrast.
Co-host Pete Hegseth attempted to mitigate the situation by wishing Paul Pelosi well after the controversial comment.
The incident has reignited discussions on the appropriateness of political commentary on news platforms.
