During a taping of his show Thursday night, Fox News host Sean Hannity discussed why men earn more than women in America with Vice Media co-founder Gavin McInnes and commentator Tamara Holder.After an opening act featuring a widely debunked claim Hillary Clinton paid her female staff less than her male staff, things got nasty, with McInnes telling Holder he believed women were less ambitious than men in the workplace.
"They would rather go to their daughter's piano recital," McInnes said.
This is not the first time McInnes has landed in hot water for his unscientific opinions about women. In a 2013interview with HuffPost Live, he called a female panelist a "****ing idiot" and, in comments similar to the ones he made on Fox, said "women are forced to pretend to be men," and it was making them "miserable."
Women, in fact, are just one of the groups that have found their way into McInnes' line of fire. In August 2014, he published a now infamous piece in Thought Catalog titled "Transphobia Is Perfectly Natural." "Haven't you seen all the totally functional, happily married, normal trannies walking around?" he wrote. "They aren't all dead." Viewers looking to find the story on Thought Catalog's website today are instead greeted with a black and white warning page documenting Internet criticism.
