Was Laura Ingraham in on a “bit” during her conservative talk show that came across more like Abbott & Costello than Fox & Friends? Or was she truly utterly and completely flummoxed by the name of a popular Netflix series?
Ingraham was interviewing author Raymond Arroyo Monday night for a segment discussing the ratings for what she termed “woke-free TV.” After first talking about the popularity of Yellowstone, Arroyo shifted gears to talk about Netflix’s show about a fictional serial killer, currently the streaming channel’s most popular series.
“I was watching an episode of You where measles came up,” Arroyo said.
Ingraham quickly interjected to say she had not done a show on measles, thinking Arroyo meant her own show when he said the title of the Netflix series.
It devolved from there as Ingraham quickly lost patience with her guest, thinking he was trying to get one over on her.
“Raymond, I have never had measles, what are you talking about? This is stupid,” Ingraham said at one point.
The clip has blown up on social media, with one TikTok post sharing the clip boasting over 5 million views.
A separate debate then sprung up as to whether or not Ingraham was truly in on the joke. You be the judge.
