OH, FOX NEWS. What have you done this time?
Northern Irish golfer Rory McIlroy ruptured an ankle ligament while playing soccer on Saturday.
Look at him there. Poor thing.
Fox News covered the incident, and one of the off-camera presenters had a very interesting reason for not being able to stand him.
He’s a leprechaun, I can’t stand him.
Observe.
Whoops!

What.
What.
WHAT?
Poor Rory. Insult to ruptured ligament.
Leprechaun comment culprit Kennedy Montgomery addressed her comments on Outnumbered on Fox this evening (July 7) and had this to say:
Yesterday at this time I used the word leprechaun to describe golfer Rory McIlroy. I love sports, I love golf, but I am not a fan of Rory’s. Mostly for the way he treated tennis great Caroline Wozniacki and discarded her like a piece of chewed gum when he broke her heart and broke off their engagement in a short phone conversation. That’s worse than breaking up on a Post-it.
She went on to say that she takes full responsibility, but she wanted to say worse.
Now to be clear, neither Harris nor Jenna Lee used the term and I don’t want them to get the credit for it. I called Rory McIlroy a leprechaun and believe me I wanted to call him much worse. As you know, some of my best friends are leprechauns and they also have tremendous senses of humor. Thank you.
