Let's get right into some jokes. Donald Trump blasted Seth Myers,
Starting point is 00:01:15 calling him one of the least talented late-night television hosts out there. I guess that makes one thing clear. He's never seen Fox News Saturday night with Jimmy Falla. Wow. No one's seen him. According to the New York Times, Trump now has gay conservatives flocking to D.C., with one gay man comparing him to a drag queen. That's not fair.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Trump wears less makeup. Burning Man's infamous Orgy Dome, where festival goers have unbridled sex, was destroyed by a massive windstorm. Well, better luck next year, Mr. Cudlow. A super pack raised more than a million dollars for Andrew Cuomo's mayoral campaign last week. Cuomo was so excited, he grabbed his own ass. A green dildo was thrown on the field during a game between the Minnesota Vikings and Tennessee Titans. The fan who tossed it said he was hoping to free up the tight end. And firefighters in England rescued a cow that had sank neck deep in a 10-foot pit of mud.
Starting point is 00:02:39 The cow was then returned home. Oh! You thought it was going to be the view, didn't you? No, that's Greg's thing. All right. We'll be back with more Gutfeld.

According to a report, Vanity Fair's new editor is interested in putting First Lady Melania Trump on its cover. And the magazine staff is totally fine with it. Just kidding. They're outraged and ready to quit.
Starting point is 00:03:21 One unnamed editor even whined to the Daily Mail saying, I will walk out the door and half my staff will fall. follow me. We are not going to normalize this despot and his wife. We're just not going to do it. We're going to stand for what's right. Now, who knows if they'll follow through and leave? Another employee said
Starting point is 00:03:41 they doubt people would quit a prestigious job over it, or even a job at Vanity Fair. Also, would they really have the balls to quit if they didn't even give their name to the reporter? They didn't even say their name was
Starting point is 00:03:58 Spartacus, missing a perfect opportunity for a movie reference that I don't get at all because it wasn't in Happy Gilmore. The truth is, threatening to quit over something like this is dumb. Like when Greg's contract talk stalled over his demand for a second helicopter. More than 77 million Americans voted for Trump. Sure. Some of them got lost on the way to the polls. But you can't shut them out and pretend they don't exist.
Starting point is 00:04:33 And it's not like the magazine's publisher, Condé Nass, has shied away from this before. Melania did appear on the cover of Vanity Fair Mexico in 2017. Michelle Obama appeared on Vogue's cover three times while she was first lady. And Jill Biden was on two during Joe's turn. And Doug Emhoff, he was on the cover of immoral housekeeping. The bottom line, refusing to work with people with whom you disagree is ridiculous. And it's a lesson these magazine staffers need to learn because people everywhere are starting to realize it. Have you noticed some left-leading outlets are more welcoming towards conservatives now?
Starting point is 00:05:18 I don't know if you guys heard, but Greg was on the Tonight Show. He sent an email earlier today saying I couldn't host if I didn't mention that. Anyway, Greg might be right when he says this is evidence of the culture shifting towards the right, but it could be a shift not away from the left or even toward the right, but towards a culture that doesn't decide the value of a person based on politics. We used to call it being an American. So, thank you. So it's not a lot to ask of these Vanity Fair staffers.
Starting point is 00:05:58 to put up with seeing a cover of a person they don't like. I don't love every single guest that's ever appeared on this channel. Sometimes I even do shows with them. I've been saying for years. But having to deal with stuff at work that you don't like isn't unique to media. It's literally what a job is. I'm sure all of you at home have that one dude or chick you absolutely can't. stand. If you don't, bad news. You work from home and that person is you.
Starting point is 00:06:37 So, if you work at Vanity Fair and think that Trump and Melania are awful, that's fine. No one is expecting you to change your mind. But what you shouldn't expect is for the entire trajectory of the magazine to revolve around you and your opinion. That's not compassion. That's self-obsession. You should want to hear other people's opinions because sometimes they make valid points. No one's always right, except for me when I'm arguing with my husband.
