If youve ever been distraught by something that Fox News host Jesse Watters said, youre not alone. Apparently, his mother feels the same way.

In a segment on The Five on Wednesday, Watters featured texts from his mother, whom he calls a liberal Democrat, critiquing his performance on the show.

When you are good you are so very very good and when there is a performance like last nights I become so distraught that you have moved ever closer to that imaginary line that cannot be crossed, his mom wrote in one text.

Please dont become a talking head that is predictable ... your colleagues roll their eyes and grown [sic] aloud with their pre-game knowledge of what your position and point is going to be, reads another.

Watters is best known for his connection to ex-Fox host Bill OReilly and the guerilla-style video series that launched with OReillys show, The OReilly Factor. The series, Watters World, featured Watters interrogating the homeless and making blatantly racist remarks , among other things. After Fox News ended its two-decade partnership with OReilly amid sexual misconduct allegations , Watters switched to The Five as a co-host.

In addition to his bizarre interviewing tactics and racism, Watters has taken fire for possibly outing college coeds when he covered a party at Brown University , and for being an active climate-change denier.
