Far-Right News Anchor Throws Cringey Tantrum After Spotting Pride Flag In Her Hometown

Far-Right News Anchor Throws Cringey Tantrum After Spotting Pride Flag In Her Hometown

One America News (OAN) anchor Alison Steinberg was criticized after she threw a profanity-laced tantrum upon spotting a Pride flag in her hometown of Huntington Beach, California, a reliably conservative enclave located in Orange County.

Steinberg referred to the sight of the Pride flag as "f**king bulls**t" and suggested, oddly, that flying it makes a mockery of a city that remained open even as areas nationwide shut down to curb the spread of COVID-19.


Steinberg, as if to profess her allegiance to former President Donald Trump, said that whoever "the hell is running this town needs to be fired," suggesting that doing so would "Make America Great Again."

You can hear her rant below.

Steinberg said:

"Guess what I came home to be greeted with? This fucking bulls**t. What the hell is that?"
“Huntington Beach is the town of good old-fashioned hard-working American people. People who worked all through the COVID lockdown!”
“Yes, that’s right. Huntington Beach never shut down through any of the COVID nonsense f**kery. And now we’re peddling this garbage?”
"What the hell is this?"
"The only flag that should be up there is that American flag. This is a disgrace to our city and it should be taken down immediately."
"Whoever the hell is running this town needs to be fired. Make America great again. Make Huntington Beach great.”

Steinberg initially posted her homophobic ravings to Instagram, but the video was later removed from the platform. It lived on elsewhere on social media, however, and many criticized her for her remarks.




Steinberg is one of the more noteworthy faces on OAN, the far-right, pro-Trump cable channel best known for trafficking conspiracy theories about COVID-19 and the integrity of the 2020 general election, which Democrat Joe Biden won decisively.

She was recently criticized for publishing a video in which she claimed that she had been discriminated against for choosing not to wear a face mask at a Starbucks drive-through.

Lisa Kudrow Just Sounded Off On The Gross Behind-The-Scenes Treatment Her Female 'Friends' Costars Were Subjected To

Two decades after Friends defined a generation of sitcom television, Lisa Kudrow is pulling back the curtain on what she describes as a “mean” and at times inappropriate behind-the-scenes culture that didn’t treat its female stars equally.

While the NBC hit sold audiences on the easy chemistry of six tight-knit friends, Kudrow talked about a writers’ room dominated by men and shaped by behavior that often crossed the line. In a recent interview with the Times, Kudrow pointed to an overwhelmingly male writers’ room of 12–15 people as a key force shaping that dynamic.

The White House Just Tried To Rebrand ICE Agents As 'NICE Agents' With Hilariously Propagandistic Graphic

The White House was criticized for sharing an image to rebrand ICE agents as "NICE" agents, including a poster of an agent kneeling next to a child that has been condemned as blatant propaganda.

The decision came after President Donald Trump shared a post from a supporter urging him to change the name of Immigration and Customs Enforcement to National Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which would change the acronym from ICE to NICE.

Fox News Reporters Caught On Hot Mic Joking About How Lax Security Was Before Correspondents' Dinner

Fox News reporters were criticized after they were caught on a hot mic joking about the unusually lax security at the White House Correspondents Association dinner before a shooting disrupted the event.

Their commentary followed a security scare at the Washington Hilton, where President Donald Trump and senior officials were quickly moved to safety after shots rang out outside the ballroom. Investigators believe the suspect fired one or two rounds. The Secret Service returned fire but missed, and the suspect was later apprehended near a staircase leading into the ballroom.
