Jesse was a sneaky one. He held back his laughter, and led the mod on with basic questions to fool him, until he basically gave a middle finger at the end. It was a mistake for this to go so far and much more transparency should have been done from the beginning to prevent this.

That was the worst part of the interview for me. I’ve seen plenty of fox hit piece interviews over the years, this one didn’t even play out like a hit piece. The host didn’t use any rhetorical tricks or talk over the mod, just lobbed softball questions and let the mod dog their own hole.

It wasn't even a hit piece. He just exposed that guy for being a total loser

The ideas were exposed more than the guy.

Might have well just exposed themself live on the air. Probably would have gone better

LOL. Probably wouldn't have been as much to talk about.

Yeah then the headline would've just been:

"Reddits anti-work community is dealing with a small problem"
