Gutfeld credits Fox with forcing coverage of border, COVID origins and gender care

Oct 12, 2026

In a monologue marking Fox News' 30th anniversary, Greg Gutfeld argues the network created competitive pressure on legacy media by covering underreported stories including border crossings, crimes by undocumented immigrants, COVID relief fraud, the lab-leak hypothesis, failures of gender medicine, and government waste. He claims Fox led on these while others dismissed them as xenophobic or conspiratorial, eventually forcing acknowledgment as evidence mounted. The segment uses humor, personal jabs at competitors, and lists of issues to portray Fox as essential counterweight to biased mainstream coverage.

Oct 11, 2026

The Fox News segment features former Trump press secretary Kayleigh McEnany discussing 'Trump Derangement Syndrome' on full display among Democrats ahead of the 2026 midterms. She argues most Democrats will pursue impeachment if they gain House control despite some cautionary voices in the party being sidelined, and urges the Trump administration to stay on offense focused on issues Americans care about. A guest host agrees, suggesting Democrats could productively negotiate with Trump on issues like credit card interest rates, citing potential alignment with Sen. Elizabeth Warren on populist concerns. The discussion relies on unnamed or general references to Democratic voices and past McEnany experience in the press shop, with no on-screen graphics or specific polling cited in the provided clip. It positions impeachment talk as a political misstep that distracts from economic priorities.

UAE deems Flydubai co-pilot's axe attack on captain a terrorist act

Oct 3, 2026

The Fox News segment reports on the September 30, 2026 incident aboard Flydubai flight FZ1073 from Dubai to Tel Aviv. The co-pilot attacked the captain with a cockpit emergency axe, caused a rapid descent of roughly 17,000 feet, and attempted to seize control in what UAE authorities now classify as a terrorist act. Passengers and crew, including off-duty pilots, overpowered the attacker after the injured captain opened the cockpit door; the plane made an emergency landing in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia with all aboard safe. The captain remains hospitalized in Abu Dhabi and has been hailed as a hero. Sourcing relies on "people familiar with the matter" for the co-pilot's prior grounding at Oman Air over suspicious activities, AP for identifying him as Hamam al-Hami (born in UAE to Syrian mother and Omani father, obtained Omani citizenship), UAE Attorney General and investigators, and direct quotes from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Islamist radicalization.
