Gawker brings the awesome.
We found it odd that Watters would refuse to talk to a reporter, given the lengths to which he goes to compel others speak to him. And as you can hear in this audio, unlike Watters’ typical m.o., we called him to ask him about it yesterday. He transferred us immediately to Fox News spokeswoman Irena Briganti, for whom we left a message.
Later yesterday, Briganti called us back. When we informed her that we were recording the conversation, she refused to talk. (Incidentally, that’s Fox News’ Roger Ailes pictured, because we couldn’t find a picture of Briganti.) Later, via e-mail, Briganti indicated that Watters refused our interview request. So we decided to track him down and ask him about his ambush interview tactics face-to-face.
If we find him, we’ll post the video as soon as we can. If we don’t, we’ll keep trying, and for that we’ll need your help. What do you know about Jesse Watters? Did you go to college with him? Do you ride the train with him? Do you work at the Starbucks where he buys his coffee? Let us know.
Hilarity to ensue…

IF this little prick does not confront his perniciousness openly, the terrorists have already won.
Got to love it that the celebrity stalker is getting stalked and seems likely to get his knockers in a knot.
Oh, dear, Bill is going to get out the very big falafel on the air and cry foul. Those commies are at it again, using his own methods against him.
You don’t mess with his most special goon and get away with it. Remember, it’s only stalking when other people do it — he’s journalisming, and that’s serious business.
Perhaps they should just stake out a popular men’s room at LaGuardia or Kennedy.
I would try to come up with some possible past lives and deeds for Jesse the Jerkoff, but one thing I’ve learned about today’s conservative; when the truth emerges, it generally outstrips my imagination and is far more amusing. So I’ll just sit back in my easy chair, sip my Oban, and wait for the funny.
This is one of those situations the doctrine of Mutually Assured Destruction was made for.
I wonder if Bill has offered to wash Jesses wifes back? You know with a falafel sandwich and Olive Oyl. My my, is it hot in here or is it me? Any comment Jesse?
Jeezus…doesn’t ANYONE watch “My Bodyguard” anymore?!?!

Thankfully, it looks like the Gawker dude has. When you stand up to a bully, they flop more than a Repub’s combover in a hurricane. That movie should be required viewing for Democrats.
Yes, please do pursue the stalking clown and get footage of him crying, wheezing and screaming about his right to privacy.
bill was trying for the word ’loofa.’
but he overlaid it with ’falafel.’
perhaps the word he was groping for was ’faloofa.’
(and that’s not all he was groping for.)
Oh, please please please get this on tape!
Surely there’s a way to get Jesse to ambush the wrestler John Stossel ambushed years ago.
I can see the litigious Fox News gang filing for a Restraining Order against Gawker and its agents/employees. The beauty of that is that a R.O. would only restrain Gawker and it’s people. The thing of beauty would be be for someone new to pick up the ball and so on, and so on…..
