Jon Stewart Calls Out Fox News for Remarks About ‘Old White People’ Attending the No Kings Protests

Jon Stewart recently poked fun at Fox News.

On the Monday, October 20, episode of The Daily Show, the late-night host, 62, discussed the No Kings protests that occurred across the country on October 18.

Stewart showed multiple clips of Republicans predicting the demonstrations were going to be filled with people from the “farthest left” and then juxtaposed that with clips of Republicans calling protesters “silly” afterward.

“Make up your mind, Fox,” Stewart remarked. “You complained it would be a terrifyingly ‘s**t your pants’ protest, and now you are complaining about how boringly unpants-s**ting it was? Although there was one nit you picked that really felt off-brand.”

The comedian then played a compilation of people on the network making fun of the fact that many older white adults attended the protests.

“The crowd, made largely up of what many are saying are gray hairs, boomers,” Fox personality Will Cain remarked in one clip.

“A lot of older, angry white boomers,” someone else on the network quipped in a separate clip.

“It’s a sea of white people!” another person exclaimed. “It’s all old white people!”

Stewart then exclaimed, “Extra extra, read all about it! ‘This country has too many angry old white people,’ says — hold on — Fox News.’”

“Fox News says, ‘Why are old white people so angry?’” Stewart continued. “Fox News, mad that there are so many old white people in America.”

“I don’t think Fox News is mad,” he added. “I think they’re jealous.”
