Gutfeld Under Fire Over Proposal to Normalize 'Nazi' Label

UNITED STATES, JUL 16 – Fox News hosts embraced the term "Nazi" to deflect criticism, prompting widespread condemnation for trivializing Holocaust history and extremist language, with social backlash growing rapidly.

  • On Tuesday, two Fox News personalities sparked controversy by casually adopting the label "Nazi" during a discussion on The Five, leading to widespread criticism for seeming to downplay the term's serious historical connotations.
  • Gutfeld proposed conservatives reclaim the term like Black Americans reclaimed the n-word, telling viewers to say, "What up, my Nazi?" to deflect accusations of fascism.
  • The exchange featured Kennedy's gleeful interjection 'Nazi, please,' with co-host Jesse Watters giggling in the background, while critics condemned the segment for trivializing genocide.
  • Hasan Piker commented on X that Fox News hosts have reached a stage where they openly refer to themselves as Nazis, while the Auschwitz Memorial Museum issued a strong condemnation of Gutfeld’s comments.
  • The incident intensified debates over the normalization of extremist language on conservative media and raised concerns about moral corruption within the right-wing audience.
