I'm a two-year-10. I'm a seven in California. Good evening, everyone. The Emmys were last night. I did not watch. Hell, if I wanted to see dim-witted narcissists pat themselves on the back for reading other people's scripts, I'll just watch this guy. Former President Bill Clinton said the CIA abandoned a plan to kill bin Laden before 9-11 over fears that innocent civilians could die. Disagreed saying, isn't that the fun of it? For his last meal, Georgia death row inmate, Stacey Humphreys, requested Brisket, ribs, a bacon cheeseburger, chicken wings, pizza, French fries, two kinds of ice cream and two large sodas.

After hearing the news, Chris Christie just slaughtered a family. Turned himself in. After a three-month absence, Senator Mitch McCormick. has returned to the Senate. Not on purpose. His speeding ambulance crashed into the Capitol. An Idaho man set a brand new world record by folding 415 paper airplanes in just one hour,

a skill that will definitely come in handy when he's not banging chicks. At 85, Martha Stewart says she's thinking about posting nude selfies of her on Instagram. Let's help her with this quandary. Don't. Well, this is grim. A crocodile head was found in a man's luggage

at airport security. But here's a weird part. The luggage was made out of humans. Finally, a New York City artist who goes by the name Ham went fully nude for three straight days on a downtown sidewalk. Well, being naked in public makes you an artist.

Call me Picasso. Fox could have been bigger, but it's okay. All right. We'll be back with more Gutfeld. So the media thinks the biggest threat to women's sports isn't trans men, empty seats or missed layups. It's hot chicks. Despite them being the only reason I watch 60 Minutes.

I know. Leslie Stahl, I'd like to spend 60 minutes with that, huh? Woo, baby. But actress Sidney just appeared in a sexy ad for a gambling site. Now, warning, we're going to watch it. So if your wife's around, now would be a good time for her to make you a BLT. Think you know sports? Prove it. No big is.

Just sports. So they wanted a show. And the sport. How about this? Sports. You can't trade this. I just look at here. No betting on wars.

or deaths and no politics. Just you? Your takes and sports. Of course, everyone in the WNBA reacted to that the exact same way, with a boner. The media treated it like the biggest danger to women's sports since the invention of the remote control.

Hollywood reporter highlighted people saying the ad was exactly why women in sports aren't taken seriously. Variety piled on, accusing her of sexual women in sports. One gymnast said female athletes have been over-sexualized, reduced to our bodies, forced to fight to be taken seriously for what we could actually do. Another called the ad, very damaging for female athletes. One Olympian said, I can't describe how infuriated I feel when I watch this, calling the ad a kick in the face. So very damaging a kick in the phase. Which seems more like the consequences girls face when playing against biological males, not some of the broad posing naked on a pool table. Thank you.

I'll take it. Why not? Sid isn't giving women serious head injuries from a blistering volleyball strike or taking podiums away from young women who wake up early for practice and dedicate their lives to sports. She was half naked in a commercial. That's not damaging, unless you're a ninth grader's tube sock.

Meanwhile, when Sophie Cunningham actually stands up for women's the people who claim to defend women's bodies, they go quiet. That's a real kick in the face. Now, Sweeney had a simple response to all this crap posting photos of female athletes who post nude for ESPN's body issue, including athletes like Megan Rapino. Of course, sexualizing Rapino wasn't very damaging to women's sports just to your eyeballs. But this isn't the first time Sid has been ripped for an ad, posing in genius. once made her a white supremacist, as if blue jeans were a white hood. Here's CBC's enlightening take.

She did the American Eagle advertisement, which many people felt was like a dog whistle for eugenics. The latest season of Euphoria, her character does go through this sort of arc of sex work, and many people are starting to say, wow, I thought that was a show. I didn't realize that was actually her real life. And so they're very upset about this ad. Journalism now boils down to many people.

Many people said this. Is many people a Spanish person? It's amazing how women in the media are the worst to other women. But what do you expect from a five? Generous. But the problem for critics isn't that we're all paying attention to Sweeney. The problem is why. Critics aren't reacting to the ad.

They're reacting to biology. Sexual attraction is not option. It's the engine for human attention, pair bonding, reproduction. Three things a lot of women are having trouble with these days, and it's not Sid's fault. It could be the politics. So when an ad features a hot chick, it's not inventing a new vice. Sweeney didn't just discover the rules of attraction. The skin, the symmetry, the waist-to-hip ratio, the carefree look that says,

I don't care that you're 60. She's just embracing the signal that organizes most human. behavior since the dawn of mankind. But I love the terms they use calling Sweeney's appeal sexualization, as if you should not be sexy until some homely, angry committee approves it. Or accusing men of objectification as if we also find chairs and end tables hot. But leftists believe you're not supposed to notice things. Big hairy men in dresses, no, that's a woman. Adolescence doing drag. No, that's enlightened entertainment, not a truly disgusting perversion. And then they say beauty and sexiness and an ad is bad.

Sorry, commies. It predates capitalism. Dismissing the visual language of attraction dismisses your own survival. Which is not surprising coming from people who thought Dylan Mulvaney was a great choice for Nike and Bud, who both then saw a sharp drop in market value.

That's some extinction-level thinking, brought to you by people who would rather die off than get off. Listen ad-free with a Fox News podcast plus subscription on Apple Podcasts. And Amazon Prime members can listen to this show, ad-free on the Amazon Music app.
