Fox News is known for being quite the controversial news source. Earlier this week, Fox News host Eric Bolling made a very sexist comment about a female pilot. Maj. Mariam Al Mansouri, the female pilot from the United Arab Emirates who led a mission this week in Syria against ISIS, was criticized by Bolling, who referred to her mission as “boobs on the ground.” Viewers were outraged after his comment aired, even his wife. Bolling issued a public apology, saying he regrets the sexist comment. [Daily News]
