Comedian roasts Fox News for taking her feminist joke way too seriously

A comedian from Los Angeles returned to TikTok to roast Fox News after they took her innocent joke way too far.

One person responded: "Okay but coming out on national news is actually so iconic."

Meanwhile, another fellow user wrote: "They don’t get sarcasm or satire - ever. It’s embarrassing."

Madi later joked: "This storytime has everything. Romance, scandal, controversy, coming out, estranged family members returning……"
