Orgo-Life the new way to the future Advertising by AdpathwayEx-Fox News host Gretchen Carlson took on President Donald Trump on Tuesday after video surfaced of him verbally attacking a female White House reporter and referring to her as “piggy” following her question about the Jeffrey Epstein files.
Carlson — in a post to X — shared a clip of what she referred to as the president’s “disgusting and degrading” treatment of Bloomberg’s Catherine Lucey, treatment that the White House defended by accusing the reporter of behaving in an “inappropriate and unprofessional way towards her colleagues.”
“It strikes at the core for me since I faced similar shame,” wrote Carlson, the winner of the 1989 Miss America pageant.
“One of my Miss America celeb judges William Goldman wrote an entire book calling me ‘Miss Piggy’ saying I had been too fat to win ― at 105 lbs.”
Carlson was a vital figure in the #MeToo movement after filing a lawsuit against then-Fox News CEO Roger Ailes for sexual harassment in 2016, the same year she left the network. She went on to receive a reported $20 million settlement and an apology from the company.

— Gretchen Carlson (@GretchenCarlson) November 18, 2025Critics have put Trump on blast over his “piggy” remark, including longtime White House correspondent April Ryan — who Trump administration official Lynne Patton once referred to as “Miss Piggy” in 2018 — who told The Guardian that the president is “acting like some thug on the street.” Patton later apologized.
Carlson, in another post to X on Tuesday, referred to Trump scolding ABC News correspondent Mary Bruce after she questioned him about the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi as the president met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in the Oval Office.
“Trump is despicable towards female reporters — just now ridiculing the WH @ABC reporter calling her a terrible reporter - and now saying ABC’s license should be taken away because they are fake news,” she wrote. “Wtf country do we live in right now?”
She later tagged Bruce in a separate post and noted that she has an “army” of supporters behind her for asking the president “normal questions” about the Epstein files at the Oval Office presser, as well.

But today he’s back to being a madman calling you terrible and ABC fake news. Stand strong.
