Things Got Awkward with Jesse Watters and Me

Written by Ben Meiselas

For those new to this Substack, let me give you some brief background on the Jesse Watters beef.

Fox Host Jesse Watters hates the MeidasTouch Network.

Each day, I hear that he makes his interns pull the digital ratings to see if we are still beating him. It pisses him off that we usually are.

From all I’ve heard, Jesse Watters’ mom is a big MeidasTouch fan. She’s a member of the Meidas Mighty.

His mom watches us over the lies and conspiracies her son spews each night. This pisses off Jesse Watters even more.

When Jesse got his new job at Fox, his mom warned him about spreading conspiracies and taking advantage of his audience. Jesse didn’t listen to his mom’s advice. His mom got so mad at Jesse that she disinvited him from Thanksgiving this year.

I also heard that Jesse Watters was trash-talking us at the DNC and asking where we were. I heard it was very odd and peculiar.

With this as background, let me tell you what happened last night.

I heard from my sources that his mom loved the interview we did with President Biden and she told Jesse about it. Jesse got very jealous, so he devoted a huge portion of his show on Fox last night to trashing my interview with President Biden.

Jesse spent the intro of his show speaking negatively about the interview with President Biden and talked about it for his main segment. The whole thing looked very desperate and odd, although I’m not mad that his audience got to see the interview.

The whole Jesse Watters situation is incredibly awkward. But it’s also very funny. I love how Jesse Watters was baited into having a huge portion of his show focused on us. It’s especially funny knowing his mom is a Meidas fan, and that we are big fans of hers as well.

Look, Jesse is making millions of dollars at Fox. He is rich beyond his wildest imagination. But obviously, he isn’t happy. That Murdoch money doesn’t buy respect or dignity. In fact, it gets you the opposite.

It’ll be ok, Jesse. You do you, big guy, and I hope you enjoyed our interview with President Biden.

And to all the Meidas Mighty, let’s keep living rent-free in the heads of Fox Hosts and Trump, please.

Can we keep beating them in digital ratings, like we did in the latest AdWeek survey which showed we had more digital views than Fox and Joe Rogan?

We don’t have investors at all, so if you can become a subscriber now, that helps us grow.

Thanks for everything.
