GB News apologises for Laurence Fox comments about female journalist

Jan 31,2022 4:21 am

By Christy CooneyBBC News

GB News has apologised after presenter Laurence Fox denigrated A Journalist and asked what " self-respecting man" would " climb into bed" with her.

The Actor 's comments were made in a live discussion after PoliticsJOE reporter Ava Evans Said on The Bbc that calls for a minister for men " feed into the culture war".

Evans Said Fox 's remarks made her feel " physically sick".

GB News Said it is investigating the " totally unacceptable" comments.

Fox - who unsuccessfully ran to be London mayor in 2021 - Said " I stand by every word of what I Said " in a Social Media post on Wednesday morning.

The Bbc discussion took place on Monday's episode of Politics Live and featured Evans alongside comedian and commentator Geoff Norcott , who raised the issue of men's Mental Health and the fact that, for men under 50, suicide remains the.

When The Host mentioned a call by a Conservative MP for a dedicated minister to address such issues, Evans Said : " I think that it feeds into the culture war a little bit, this minister for men argument.

" [Mental illness] is a crisis that's endemic throughout the country, not specific to men. And I think a lot of ministers bandy this about to - I'm sorry - Make an enemy out of women. "

She later Said on X, formerly known as Twitter, that the comments had been " a little rash" and that she was " actually very interested in a brief for a minister on Young Men 's Mental Health ".

Fox , who hosts his own show on GB News, was asked about The Exchange while appearing as a guest on another of the channel's programmes, Dan Wootton Tonight, on Tuesday.

" We're past the watershed so I can say this. Show Me a single self-respecting man that would like to climb into bed with That Woman - ever, ever, " He Said .

" That little woman has been fed, spoon-fed oppression day after day after day.

" And she's sat there and I'm going like, 'If I met you in a bar and that was like sentence three, [the] chances of me Just Walking away are just huge.

" We need powerful strong, amazing women who Make great points for themselves. "

He then added: " Who'd want to shag that? "

Reacting on the same platform alongside a video clip of The Exchange between Fox and Wootton, Evans Said : " Laurence Fox just did a whole speech on GB News on why men apparently won't shag me? I feel physically sick. "

Host Wootton, who could be seen laughing at points as Fox spoke, later apologised on X, writing: " Dear I think you're brilliant.

" I apologise for what was Said during The Course of my show and should have done this immediately on air. This is not what our channel is about. "

In its own statement, GB News Said : " Comments made tonight on GB News by Laurence Fox were totally unacceptable.

" What He Said does not reflect our values and we apologise unreservedly for the comments and The Offence they have caused.

" We have launched an investigation and will be apologising to the individual involved. "

Fox 's comments attracted widespread condemnation, including from Labour MP and shadow Attorney General Emily Thornberry , who tagged media regulator Ofcom into a post on X in an apparent call for it to intervene.

" British television should never subject women to this sort of abuse, " She Said .

Ofcom Said it had received " A Number of complaints" about Fox 's comments which it was " assessing" against its broadcast rules.
