Slappy Squirrel did it better:


And since the clip is out of context and I have no interest in searching for anything Fox News, what exactly was the "non-woke TV" Ingrahm and her guest were talking about referred to in the lower third?

Based on what I could see of the clip, I believe it was Yellowstone or something else on the Paramount network.  (not to be confused with Paramount +)  The movies mentioned at the end of the clip (Sicario and Hell or High Water) are also heavy on the (often toxic) masculinity and violence.

Logical.  "Yellowstone" had over 10M viewers for its season premiere last week, counting instant repeats and roadblocks on TV Land, CMT and Pop--a large amount of viewers on linear television for anything that isn't the NFL or some reality comps--and with no streaming until next year on Peacock.  It should be pointed out that the show has a mostly 55+ audience, which is the audience that still subscribes to cable and watches Fox News.  However, Joe Adalian of Vulture believes that the show is getting a stream-binge bounce from the previous seasons on Peacock similar to "Breaking Bad" or "Schitt's Creek" on Netflix--while the more Peak TV "Impeachment:  American Crime Story" Bill-and-Monica tale on FX stinking up the joint more than initial hype would indicate, with no day-after streaming on Hulu ("ACS" had a previous streaming deal with Netflix and will not show up there until next year).  And of course, FNC viewers have no interest in anything Ryan Murphy puts out--even if most of it was for Murdoch-owned companies.

The only time any of these whack-jobs ever “trend” on social media is for being an idiot. And I don’t understand that, because they are idiotic on a daily if not hourly basis. I’ll never understand the algorithm that somehow determines “idiot is an idiot” is what we will respond to. And yet we (myself included) do respond to it. But then I remember taking the bait is how we ended up with Trump.
