Fox & Friends co-host Gretchen Carlson seems to like the younger guys: The Jonas Brothers fan dallied with Peter Doocy, son of her co-anchor Steve Doocy, today. After Gretch complained that he had a “plum assignment” indoors in the warmth of the Newseum (when she and the other F&F co-anchors were co-hosting in the cold of D.C.), Peter joked, “Hey, Gretchen! I actually just rolled my sleeves down: It is a little warm in here.”
To the Villanova student, Gretch chuckled, “Come and rub my toes!” Peter shook his and disdained, “No, I’m ok: thanks!” Turning to Gretch, who did not return his gaze, dad Steve sheepishly interjected, “That’s sick!” Peter continued, “I just washed my hands: there’s not enough Purell in Washington.” Gretch cooed, “I just got a pedicure.”
Gretch, a little hot for student?

I actually saw this exchange, and I think Peter owes Gretchen an apology. The way he said it was very vindictive, and Gretchen actually said “that wasn’t very nice.” I agree. It was arrogant and rude of Doocy to make such a comment. He obviously still has a lot of growing up to do. After watching F&F for several years, I actually wrote them an email this morning just after the incident, and complained about Peter’s behavior. Am I being too sensitive? I don’t think so. If Gretchen publically laughs at it, I’m ok with it. But she isn’t laughing, is she?

Fred, Peter may have been a bit harsh. However, Brian is the one who said, “Oh! That’s not nice.”
