SAN FRANCISCO -- Gov. Gavin Newsom partly blamed Fox News for fueling the vitriol against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband, Paul, who was attacked by an intruder with a hammer at the couple's San Francisco home last week.
"I've seen the dehumanization of Nancy Pelosi," Newsom told CBS News' chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett in an exclusive interview on Saturday. "I don't think anyone's been dehumanized like she has consistently. Now I watched this one guy, Jesse Watters or something on Fox News. What he's been saying about Paul Pelosi the last five, six months, mocking him consistently. Don't tell me that's not aiding and abetting all this. Of course it is."
"They're sowing the seeds, creating a culture and a climate like this," Newsom said. "I mean, look online. Look at the sewage that is online that they amplify on these networks and in social media to dehumanize people like Nancy Pelosi and other political leaders."
CBS News reached out to Fox News and Watters on Monday and had not heard back by 5 p.m. ET. Watters said on his show on Monday night that Newsom "thinks if you mock a Democrat, it puts him on a target list."

Fox and let's be honest, the MAGA movement itself, not only riled this guy up and set him on course to confront the Pelosi's in their home.
They [Fox & MAGA movement] made Paul Pelosi have sweet, sweet gay lovin with the right-wing assailant.
But Antifa spray painting “murder Andy Ngo” on a building is not incitement?
Fox news told Paul Pelosi to bring a man home from a gay bar at closing time to suck his penis? I had no idea...
And YOU GAVIN, along with your lying, violent Democrat goons have created a culture of mistrust among conservative Americans. There is NOTHING that will ever come out of your mouths that will be believed.
Obama never mentioned what to bring to a hammer fight. I guess he needs to check with Eagle’s Fans again first.
Jesse Watters always closes his show with,
“I’m Watters and this is my world.”
If you play that backwards it says,
“Go hit Paul with a hammer.”
People who followed The Beatles will understand that one.
If Nancyis Newsom’s aunt then Paul would be his uncle.
What pisses me off about this crap, is that there are actually people that believe this crap. And these evil politicians say this stuff to mislead and fire up people.
Otherwise I would simply laugh it off.
Republicans are not allowed to criticize Democrats. Democrats can call US deplorables, terrorists, Nazis, haters, bigots, racists, xenophobes, transphobes, sexists, white supremacists, MAGA extremists, “privileged,” election deniers, gun nuts, violent, or anything else they want. They can whip up hatred against us, causing us to be crime victims, canceled, lose our jobs, and our lives ruined. But we, and Fox News, cannot ever, ever criticize them.
Yeah, I don’t think the mental patient that attacked Pelosi watches or is influenced by Fox News.
Gavin? Sounds gay.
In the case of Paul Pelosi, the comedy is too much.
People in the leftwing koolaide crowd, have had it beaten into them that San Fran and Berkeley are havens for leftwing utopia.
Now they are asked to believe that this same haven is the hotbed of right wing hatred. (courtesy freeper Flip Wilson)
If you don't believe that, just ask them. By "them" I mean Paul Ryan.
And you cannot question government when Democrats are in control. That’s a threat to Democracy.
You can’t dehumanize what is not human. Gavin needs to go to a bath house and STFU.
He means Nancy not Fox ,LOL
He didn't ask Paul "Where's Nancy?"
Instead he asked him, "Now who's the Nancy boy?"
So she acts like a demon (especially during Kavanaugh confirmation), Fox News hosts point that out, and that make THEM the bad guys?
