A media firestorm has erupted in the world of television and political commentary after Fox News personality Greg Gutfeld openly declared he would not acknowledge or support LGBTQ+ Pride Month this June.
đŹÂ What Did Gutfeld Say?
During a panel discussion on Gutfeld! that aired Monday night, Greg was asked whether his show would be doing any Pride-related segments. His response shocked viewers and instantly went viral:
âI respect people as individuals, but Iâm not going to celebrate something thatâs been hijacked by woke culture. I believe in freedom of expression â and no, woke doesnât deserve to be honored.â
đȘïžÂ The Internet Reacts
Social media erupted in a frenzy of opposing views:
-
Supporters praised Gutfeld for âsaying what others are afraid to sayâ and âstanding up against performative activism.â
-
Critics, however, accused him of being dismissive and âhiding intolerance behind free speech,â with some calling for advertisers to pull sponsorships from his program.
đ„ïžÂ Response from Fox News and Media Circles
As of this morning, Fox News has not released any official statement regarding Gutfeldâs remarks. However, several media watchdog groups and public figures have spoken out, calling his comments divisive, inflammatory, and damaging.
One media analyst tweeted:
âGutfeld knows what heâs doing â this isnât just commentary, itâs strategy. The question is, at what cost?â
đąÂ Conclusion:
Greg Gutfeldâs refusal to support Pride Month has instantly become one of the most polarizing moments in mainstream media this June. Will his unapologetic stance lead to fallout from sponsors or network leadership â or will it rally a growing segment of viewers frustrated with âwokeâ culture?
