Terkel and Grim were working together at HuffPost on the night of the White House dinner in 2016, which they and Watters attended. There, while filming on his cellphone, Grim asked Watters to apologize to Terkel over the episode in Virginia. Watters then grabbed the phone and threw it, and suddenly “there were a lot of fists flying,” Grim recalled. Grim continued that he “kind of like[s]” Watters as the face of Fox’s prime-time coverage, “because he’s such a frat boy”. Fox has said the firing of Carlson, which opened the door for Watters’s primetime hosting gig, was unrelated to the settlement.
