1. **From reporter Lee Moran:** 

   George Clooney took a sarcastic swipe at Fox News’ Jesse Watters after a producer for Watters’ “Primetime” show confronted the movie star outside a theater in New York City. 

   Clooney, currently starring in his play “Good Night and Good Luck,” was approached by Fox’s Johnny Belisario as he signed autographs for fans. 

   “Why did you wait so long to speak about Biden’s condition?” Belisario asked, referencing Clooney’s high-profile July 2024 New York Times op-ed calling for Biden to abandon his reelection bid and be replaced with a new Democratic nominee. 

   Clooney, smiling, responded: “Oh, hi man. Are you recording us now? Say hi to Jesse for me.” 

   “I’m a huge fan,” he then snarked. 

   Belisario claimed Watters liked Clooney’s hairstyle and asked whether former President Barack Obama had “used” him to take down Biden. 

   Clooney teased in response: “Why are you so nervous? You’re shaking.”

2. This is how you do it. Take down these people by exposing their insecurities of which there are legions

3. First time I watched Fox News in a while.

   It’s actually worse than I thought it would be. It’s literally like it’s trying to be a parody of an evil network.

   Cartoonishly comical in the most humorless way possible

4. Classic HuffPost clickbait bs. Clooney did next to nothing here. Just block huffpost and find some real news sites.

5. Still talking about Biden

6. Fox News headline about the encounter: “Belisario Exposes Clooney on Red Carpet as Radical Left Tool”

7. I’m looking at that clip and nobody dunked on anybody. Nobody played anybody better than the other, both people are actors and we’re acting accordingly.

8. This guy needs to stay out of politics. Biden would have been president right now if he just kept to himself.

9. Fox News seems like satire. It’s not. But it sure seems like it

10. I hope Fox News continues this behavior with Clooney. have at it.
