From the moment the segment opens, complete with the stereotypical "Oriental riff," you know this is not politically correct TV. But boy, does it go downhill quick.

Fox News correspondent Jesse Watters has drawn swift outrage after the airing of his O'Reilly Factor segment on New York City Chinatown voters, with users on social media calling it "blatantly racist" and "nauseating."

At a time when divisiveness and negativity drives the conversation around immigration, we must remember that our country was founded and built by immigrants.

This is a completely and utter lie.

I’ve seen it done on the local news in S.F. Looking for fireworks. Reporters were crass. Then there’s the bald headed chinaman Louie who just had to ask Cher a personal question where she said “It’s none of your business”. Had to like her just that once.

Anything Jesse Watters’ does may or may not be offensive but is always unfunny.

He’ll get his own show when the fallout from Ailes’ settles down. Fox does need to lighten up. Megan is not being taken seriously and O’riley becomes a boor after the talking points memo.

I don’t mind him when he talks politics, I just can’t stand the painfully unfunny vignettes.

And Tucker Carlson really needs to get his own show. Especially since he ditched the bow ties.

It’s actually scary to see how ignorant our young people have become. It appears the 50 years of DemocRAT Teacher’s Unions have done a real job on the intelligence of our children. Spending more time on climate change and world peace than was necessary, and very little time on the academics which would help them get a great job.

He got confused because Chinese-Americans are privileged because they are stereotypically smart and need to be punished.

This lie is from the pit of hell too.
To say that blacks, or chinese, or hispanic immigrants built this nation is about as laughable as saying Muslims are peaceful.

What else do you expect from the press?

He noticed Orientals were orientals. Almost as bad as noticing Islamist terrorists are Islamist terrorists.
