Nicely, Fox Information determined to supply some “money-saving tips” for its viewers to ensure they don’t overspend throughout the holidays. Yesterday, on America’s Newsroom, anchor Dana Perino spoke with Jade Warshaw, co-host of The Ramsey Present, to debate how people can get monetary savings this vacation season.
“Budget, budget, budget. You need a plan,” Warshaw mentioned. “Also, remember: Adults don’t need gifts, ok?”
“Focus on the people in your life who are aged 3 to 18. Grandma doesn’t need slippers.”
“If they don’t live by you, don’t get them a gift. Now’s not the time to spend and break the bank sending packages across the country, Dana!”
“Focus on the people in your life, ages 3 to 18. That’s my 30 seconds for ya.”
Unsurprisingly, individuals had been fairly stunned by the suggestion. ”‘fuck grandma’ is a hell of a message from Republicans to shut the yr.”
“Fuck you grandma, you’re too old for Christmas this year.”
“Is this the ‘war on Christmas?’”
“Fox News, what the hell are you doing. Your audience isn’t people who might save money by kicking Grandma out of Christmas. Your audience is Grandma.”
And eventually, ”‘Grandma doesn’t want slippers as a result of she’s going to lose her toes when she will be able to’t get medical insurance.’”
