Fox News reporter Jesse Watters on Wednesday defended his comment about first daughter Ivanka Trump’s microphone-handling skills, stating that it was “in no way” a joke about something else.
“On air I was referring to Ivanka’s voice and how it resonates like a smooth jazz radio DJ. This was in no way a joke about anything else,” Watters tweeted on Wednesday.

{mosads}Watters came under fire on Tuesday after complimenting President Trump’s daughter and White House adviser on the manner in which she spoke into the microphone during her public appearance in Berlin, Germany.
“It’s funny, you know the left says they really respect women and when given an opportunity to respect a woman like that they boo and hiss,” Watters said on “The Five.”
“I don’t really get what’s going on here but I really liked how she was speaking into that microphone,” he added.
