Watters on 'Mark': 'Never Heard of Him'
Fox News host Jesse Watters has claimed he "never heard of" Mark Meadows, the former White House Chief of Staff, despite working closely with him during the Trump administration.
Watters made the comment on his show, "Jesse Watters Primetime," on Monday, April 10, 2023, while discussing the ongoing investigation into the January 6th Capitol riot.
Watters, a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump, appeared to be dismissing the relevance of Meadows' testimony to the House Select Committee investigating the attack.
The statement has been met with widespread criticism, with many pointing to the fact that Watters and Meadows worked closely together during Trump's presidency.
Watters was a frequent contributor to Fox News during Trump's time in office and was often seen interacting with Meadows and other White House officials.
Some have speculated that Watters' statement is a deliberate attempt to downplay Meadows' significance and deflect attention away from his potential testimony.
Meadows, a close confidant of Trump, played a crucial role in the administration's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2020 presidential election.
He has been subpoenaed by the House Select Committee to testify about his role in the events leading up to the January 6th attack.
The incident has raised questions about the credibility of Watters and Fox News's commitment to accurate reporting.
It has also highlighted the ongoing political divide in the United States and the increasing polarization of the media landscape.
It remains to be seen what impact, if any, Watters' statement will have on the ongoing investigation into the January 6th Capitol riot.
