Pete Hegseth has been fuming at unfavorable press coverage of the war with Iran, and Stephen Colbert delivered his worst nightmare on The Late Show Monday night.
In a press briefing amid the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran, Defense Secretary Hegseth demanded that the media stop perpetuating news. The former Fox News anchor, 45, offered suggestions to legacy media on headlines, saying that he “used to be in the industry.”
He called headlines “patently ridiculous,” “unserious,” and “fake,” suggesting several “real” headlines more aligned with the government’s insistence about how things are going.
