Before Fox & Friends Weekend meteorologist Rick Reichmuth’s seven o’clock A Block weather report, F&FW co-host Alisyn Camerota had toyed mercilessly with her male audience by parading her phallic-shaped 2006 Hot Dog Making trophy, handling it suggestively, and making numerous double entendres.* However, thereafter, it appeared that Rick might be playing to another audience demographic.** During the segue to Rick, co-anchor Clayton Morris randily asked him whether the wiener statute was “more than an Emmy,” Rick declared, “I am so uncomfortable right now.”
As Rick started his forecast, co-host Dave Briggs brought the statute toward him and Rick initially cautioned, “Keep that away: I know exactly where you’re coming.” However, when Dave handed his the trophy, Rick eagerly reached for it and looked at it in disbelief. Guffawing, he asked, “Is that for real?” Chuckling, Dave replied, “It’s all yours.”
Taking it, Rick began to use the phallic statue as a pointer on the weather map. As the co-hosts and crew howled, Rick remarked, “This is the worse thing ever. There’s going to be more weather coming up next half hour: How’s that?” Smiling, Rick began to rub the wiener award behind his left ear and then at the top of his back. As Dave and Aly fought to keep their composure, Clayton jested, “San Antonio doesn’t appreciate you [Rick] pointing that at them.” Rick riantly responded, “That’s true.” Facetiously, he concluded, “It’s a back scratcher.”
Stepping out, or bending it like Beckham?***
