Dear Mr. Jesse Watters,
Well you’ve done it sir. You’ve just hit it big in the journalism world. And I’m just going to preface this article by saying that you’ve irritated a lot of people including me. I’m sorry if this article comes off as just a rant but it’s much more than that.
It’s people like you that make me want to be in the world of journalism. I see acts like yours as such a disgrace to what was such an art form and you make me work harder to be a prominent figure in the writing word, so I guess, thanks for that. However, from what I’ve seenon various sites includingyour twitter page, your less than 140 character tweet was far from an apology.
I think what angers me the most about your segment is that it is actually a segment. Does that make sense? Granted, the only “Watters World” I’ve seen is your piece on New York City’s Chinatown and the little tidbits I’ve caught walking into the living room when my dad was watching Fox News. Who deemed this journalism and fit to be on a news channel? It seems you took your given assignment and said “Screw this, this doesn’t deserve to be taken seriously.” And you went and half-assed it. Oh sorry, your transitions into “fitting” movie clips and sound effects were perfect though, can’t forget about that.
I mean I guess it was “All in good fun” as your fellow Fox News correspondent and just my FAVORITE person of all time, Bill O’Riley said. Because it’s just so much fun to continue to use old Asian stereotypes like, “Do you do karate?” and “Everything’s made in China!” I’m just surprised he didn’t ask any of them, “How can you even see?”
Much Love,
