“Anti-Asian Bigot” was apparently not a catchy enough moniker on FOX Five host Jesse Watters’ résumé. So he had to spice his CV up a few years back by tacking “Twisted Sexual Predator” to his long list of creepdentials — raising a dog whistle megaphone to his red-pilled base (and a middle finger to women’s rights advocates and their allies).
As several outlets have reported, Emma (née DiGiovine) was an associate producer at FOX, a subordinate of Mr. Watters and 14 jears his junior at 25 years of age, during the 2017 timeframe in which the greased-hair gargoyle — who, by the way, was married with children at the time — was pressuring her for sexual favors. As he giddily regales in a recent on-air appearance with fellow ghouls “Judge” Jeanine Pirro and others, Watters stumbled on the totally-not-batshit-stalkerish idea of sneaking out to the parking lot before the end of the workday and deflating the tires on Emma’s car…...so that she would have no choice other than to allow him to drive her home.
And apparently it worked.
This is warped on so many levels, I don’t even know where to begin. First, let’s look at the toxic power dynamic that was at play here. As a junior producer, she was subordinate to Watters. Although the article doesn’t indicate that she reported directly to him, it was clear that he was in a far more powerful and influential position than her. I can only imagine how hard it would have been for her to rebuff his advances — thereby endangering not only her job but her entire career in the industry as well. FOX’s past history of this sort of thing is straight out of a horror movie.
Not to mention the fact that his stunt could have killed her! Had she not noticed the flattened rubber carcass, she might have driven away unawares and careened off the FDR into the East River.
But it was all just a big barrel of laughs to the coiffed Stepford Newscasters (and I use the prefix news very loosely). And if you thought that Watters’ cohort Pirro — who, after all, is a fricking judge — would be horrified by this blatant, flippant admission of predation and hooliganism…...then you don’t know Judge Jeanine (or FOX) very well at all.
The radioactive cyanide-laced salt in the wounds of all this?
Emma ended up marrying the f**khead!!!
But not before Watters’ then-wife Noelle found out about this little tryst and hauled him into divorce court.
And by the way, this is the first time Watters has gone public with this story. He admits that even Emma didn’t know about it until the show aired this past Monday. For almost 5 years, she’s imagined that someone or something else was responsible for the absense of oxygen in her tire. I would have loved to overhear the dinner-table conversation in their expensive home that night.
