Amid Donald Trump’s hush money trial, right-wing broadcaster Clay Travis sparked controversy with a tweet that urged Trump supporters in New York to engage in potentially illegal activities to support the former president.
“If you’re a Trump supporter in New York City who is a part of the jury pool, do everything you can to get seated on the jury and then refuse to convict as a matter of principle, dooming the case via hung jury,” he posted. “It’s the most patriotic thing you could possibly do.”
Travis’ suggestion quickly drew attention to potential legal implications. Lying to gain a place on a jury is a federal crime, and individuals who serve on a jury are expected to base their verdict solely on the evidence presented in the trial. Social media users quickly pointed out that Travis’s call to action was jury tampering, a felony offense.

The TV news correspondent whose description of decapitated infants and other atrocities from the Hamas attack on southern Israel went instantly viral pushed back Wednesday against questions around her reporting, saying she witnessed the atrocities “with my own eyes” and calling the reflexive doubt “sickening.”
Nicole Zedek was on the ground early this week for i24NEWS, an international 24-hour news television channel based in Tel Aviv. Her reports describing beheaded babies and children were immediately shared and widely discussed around the globe — including scrutiny and outright doubt, which she addressed Wednesday during an appearance on “The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show.”
Zedek said she was grateful at first that her reporting had spread so quickly, “because people need to see those images and need to hear exactly what’s happening here on the ground in Israel.”

Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis is talking up the prospect of Democrat and Joe Biden rival Robert Kennedy, Jr., serving in his administration.
In a new interview with right-wing commentator Clay Travis, DeSantis was asked whether he’d consider the anti-vax conspiracy theorist Kennedy as a running mate. DeSantis, who has campaigned vigorously (and fecklessly) to appeal to vaccine skeptics, downplayed that idea, arguing that the Democrat was “averse to our base” on 70 percent of the issues.

Ron DeSantis once again floated a potential pardon for his 2024 rival Donald Trump should the Florida governor win the presidency. During a Tuesday interview with right-wing podcaster Clay Travis, DeSantis justified the idea by citing President Gerald Ford’s pardoning of his predecessor Richard Nixon following the Watergate scandal as a way to “move the country beyond” Nixon’s actions.

The DNC’s decision has been condemned by both media figures such as Joe Rogan and some of Biden’s Democratic challengers, including Robert F. Kennedy and Marianne Williamson.
Fox News’ Steve Doocy, who co-anchors the network’s morning show “Fox & Friends,” praised Van Der Beek for “ripping into” the DNC, saying, “I watched this video and I was like, ‘This guy deserves to be sitting on a panel analyzing everything that’s going on right now.”

Don Lemon made sexist comments about former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R) on Thursday that enraged his co-anchors that Poppy Harlow left the set. Kaitlan Collins followed Harlow off the set and into the bathroom.
Tension has been building between the three for several months.
The controversy began with a proposal Haley made in her presidential announcement speech about instituting a mental company test for politicians over the age of 75.
“This whole talk about age makes me uncomfortable,” Lemon said. “I think it’s the wrong road to go down. She says people, you know, politicians are suddenly not in their prime. Nikki Haley isn’t in her prime.”
Lemon continued, “A woman is considered to be in their prime in [their] the 20s and 30s and maybe 40s.”
Harlow immediately called him out, saying, “What are you talking about, wait … Prime for what?”
Lemon then attempted to backtrack. “That’s not according to me,...

A former Marine and pro soccer player has pulled out of grand marshal duties for a July 4 parade in Friendswood, Texas, after a conservative Houston radio-show host targeted her online with a Twitter post featuring a photo of her son.
Haley Carter and her family received physical threats of violence as the apparent result of Jesse Kelly’s tweet, according to a statement by the suburban Houston city. The tweet falsely suggested Carter was a Communist, criticized her advocacy against gun violence and referred to Friendswood as a conservative “blood red city.”
“She’s a gun-grabber. She’s into drag. She’s into trans activism,” the tweet read from Kelly, who is a periodic guest on Tucker Carlson’s primetime Fox News show and hosts a nationally syndicated radio program. The tweet also featured a photo of Carter’s son, screengrabbed from a social media post.

Aaron Rodgers had an answer today on a most valuable player voter, and he didn’t state it in the form of a question.
The former Jeopardy! host and current Green Bay Packers quarterback called out Chicago-area radio interviewer/newsletter editor Hub Arkush, who refused to vote for Rodgers as NFL Mvp because he’s unvaccinated.
Rodgers said during a Wednesday press conference that Arkush’s controversial stance made him an “absolute bum.”
The AP has presented an award recognizing the NFL’s top player since the 1957 season. Arkush is one of 50 people the Associated Press allows to vote for league Mvp. Arkush said he didn’t vote for Rodgers because the quarterback is a “bad guy” and one of the “biggest jerks in football.”

Tennis star Naomi Osaka hit back at criticism from Megyn Kelly on Monday, telling the podcaster to “do better.”
It all started when conservative radio host Clay Travis tweeted, “Since saying she’s too introverted to talk to the media after tennis matches, Naomi Osaka has launched a reality show, a Barbie, and now is on the cover of the Si swimsuit issue.”
Kelly weighed in next, writing, “Let’s not forget the cover of (& interview in) Vogue Japan and Time Mag!”
Osaka — who has been speaking out about her mental health struggles recently and withdrew from the French Open and Wimbledon after saying she did not want to speak to press because it made her anxious — replied to the former Fox News and NBC News host with her own tweet.

Osaka — who has been speaking out about her mental health struggles recently and withdrew from the French Open and Wimbledon after saying she did not want to speak to press because it made her anxious — replied to the former Fox News and NBC News host with her own tweet.

Clay Travis and Buck Sexton have been confirmed as the permanent replacements for longtime conservative talk radio fixture Rush Limbaugh.
The duo will take over the daytime slot June 21, with plans to preserve it as a bastion of right-wing talk, albeit from a younger perspective. The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show, syndicated by iHeartMedia’s Premiere Networks, will air from noon to 3 p.m. Et on hundreds of radio stations across the country.
Limbaugh died in February at age 70, after wielding considerable influence in conservative circles for decades. Gaining traction during the presidency of Bill Clinton, he pioneered a brand of talk radio that proved enormously lucrative but also contributed to the political divisions in the U.S. Former President Donald Trump joined a number of Republicans in paying tribute to Limbaugh upon his death, though some outside the conservative establishment did not mourn his loss.

Outkick Media, a sports-focused digital media brand that gained attention in the years after its founding in 2008 by relentlessly attacking ESPN, is being acquired by Fox Corp.
Lachlan Murdoch, CEO of Fox, on Fox’s earnings call with Wall Street analysts described the deal as a fit with Fox’s ongoing push into sports wagering. He called Outkick a “leading operator” in sports news and opinion content and a “unique and special voice and one that aligns with the Fox audience rather well.”
Outkick has an exclusive marketing agreement with FanDuel, which is also a partner with Fox, and is a “significant source” of wagering referrals, a press release said.
Financial terms for the deal were not disclosed.
Founded as Outkick the Coverage by lawyer and online sportswriter Clay Travis, Outkick established itself with college football coverage. It went on to gain wider attention and readership by attacking ESPN.

After making a business in delivering news with a conservative point of view, Fox Corporation is looking to do the same with sports.
The company has purchased Outkick, the conservative-leaning sports-news site founded by entrepreneur and online personality Clay Travis.
The acquisition was unveiled by Lachlan Murdoch, the company’s CEO, during a call with investors on Wednesday. Financial terms were not disclosed. Outkick, said Murdoch, is a leader “in sports news, and more critically, sports opinion,” and is likely to align with Fox’s core audience.
Travis, a former attorney, founded the site as an extension of his work doing sports columns for CBS, Deadspin and FanHouse. He is known for outspoken, even flip, commentary, and many people who are not close followers may best know him from a CNN appearance in which he was taken off the air by anchor Brooke Baldwin after he made references to female anatomy.

Against all odds — which is also the name of his podcast on the Ringer Podcast Network — Cousin Sal Iacono has made the leap from the writer’s room on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” (hosted by his famous cousin) to the host’s seat.
In August, Iacono was named as one of the hosts of FS1’s new sports gambling show “Lock It In.” He’s joined by co-hosts Clay Travis of “Outkick the Coverage,” odds maker Todd Fuhrman and Rachel Bonnetta. For someone who has many, many years of experience with sports gambling (he has appeared on longtime pal Bill Simmons’ podcast every Monday for more than a decade to guess the NFL lines) and in the TV world, the move in front of the camera has been a comfortable fit, especially on a topic he knows well.

Talk and game show host Steve Harvey twice referred to the Golden State Warriors as “gorillas” in a conversation with ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith on Wednesday during an NBA championship pre-cast.
Harvey made the remarks when asked whether his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers could do anything to derail the Warriors, who are up 3 games to none in the best-of-seven championship series. So far, there has been little uproar over the comments.
Harvey twice used the “gorillas” description when talking about how the Warriors have dominated. “You can’t stop them,” he said. “You gotta outscore them. You can’t stop all them boys. They’ve got too many gorillas on the team. They coming to play, man. They got 800-pound gorillas on their team.”
Fox college football analyst Clay Travis, who founded the outkickthecoverage website, is one person who has noticed the silence regarding the remarks, commenting on them in two separate tweets.
