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."

Gruesome needs to put a sock in it.
WOW. Talk about gaslighting. Pelosi is a vile disgusting baby killing corrupt woman who has done more to poison the body politic than anyone. Even worse than Biden. Biden is just a stupid bully. Pelosi is a cunning demon.
That retard keeps sanctuary policies and homeless coddling.
It’s on him. Not MAGA.
Saw that, the buck-toothed Dale keeps saying it’s all a hoax. I love the panic of these Commies.
I loathe their guts.
