Ronny Chieng’s Response to Jesse Watters’s Anti-Asian Racism | The Daily Show

Im a 64 year old white guy with two grand children and a large family. I will use this piece to show my grand children the difference between a real reaporter conducting an honest interview such as yourself and most professional reporters and a CLOWN trying to be a reporter (Jesse Waters). It is important in this day and. age for people to be able to distinguish the bullying and shut it down. Rony Chieng I thank you and the daily show.

[@addicted2hawks115]

Hey Bill, great comment. I just added my own comment (probably too long winded, my bad) expressing my thoughts as a 61 year old white guy born in North Dakota who is married to an immigrant from China. It just staggers my mind that Jesse Walters has a job...but even more so that in 2024 there are people who enjoy watching people like Waters, and worse yet companies like making huge piles of cash spewing this junk.

[@Tenchigumi]

This is part of why the whole notion of "I don't see color" is flawed: it's a nice thought, but in practice is all about homogeny and forcing diverse people to assume a "default" culture as defined by the majority. It's about making sure the people who have the most power remain as comfortable as possible by wiping out any distinctions that would give them FOMO, like different languages, religions, cultures, traditions, etc. The end result is a society that mocks and belittles anyone who doesn't conform to that default, with language being a key component of that.

I was both angry and so sad when I saw that video. To this day I can’t even look at Watters. My daughter is from China. She adopted us when she was a baby. We had and still have many friends in the Chinese community where we live. A dear sweet couple who were seniors became surrogate grandparents to our sweet girl. They poured all the love in their hearts out to my daughter and have had lasting influence on her and our lives. They fled southern China after the revolution. They only knew a few words of english but we had no problem understanding the love and care they gave our whole family. When Waters did that piece and mocked the older folks I couldn’t help but see our friends and how easily he could have treated them the same. It makes me sick to think if it. I can’t believe he is still on the air.

Westerners who, more often than not, are looking for something, but not sure what it is. It might be hard to interview people in the first type, as it’s usually very suburban.

I miss all of you so much right now. I will be glad when the writers win their negotiations so you can get back to being this awesome. Thanks for the snippet to give us a little fix. Thanks Ronnie. Thanks Roy.

[@gildeddragonfly]

I love how they saw Ronny and immediately went "We need to talk to this man". This is why representation and diversity matters. If they had shown up without someone who could bridge that gap or not cared about the situation, we wouldn't have gotten that absolutely golden conversation disrespecting Jesse Watters.

[@annettespradlin4945]

Watters doesn't respect anything. Least of all, his first wife that he cheated on with a colleague. Dude has no respect for anyone.

[@Vingul]

The situation also wouldn’t have arisen in the first place, to be fair. No need to «bridge the gap» in a homogeneous society. Unity, no ethnic strife.

[@yanzhang5185]

Ronny, thanks for speaking up for us, all Asian who live in US.

[@jsbaxter]

as a Asian American..this was freaking brilliant.. Ronny needs to represent us more...Loving this. Growing up in the 80's I didnt have much of a role model on tv...The most I could relate to was being an extra on M.A.S.H

[@s3goku4]

my role model was shortround

[@amyj4811]

Then I was born in the mid 90s and KZbin came around when I was in school. Because no one gave Asians & asian Americans those opportunities… they decided to do it themselves. Asian Americans really revolutionized the KZbin platform. They were the pioneers b/c they saw an opportunity to share their creative expressions. I, like many others my age, grew up on them. Michelle Phan, nigahiga, kevjumba, bubzbeauty, timothydelaghetto, and soooooo many more comedy & beauty vloggers. They really shaped me into who I am ❤

[@MrFMartin82]

I enjoyed this. As a non-Asian American it was enlightening to hear these questions answered from actual chinese people in their language. It felt like I finally got their point of view from them and not just numbers and what others say.

[@jmk0512]

Fox and the Republican upset me. My grandfather from my Chinese side risked his life serving this country in world war II and working for the CIA for over 30 years, and this racist treatment is how this country rewards his service and contributions. By attacking his children and grandchildren. I'm raising my 9 year old daughter 4th generation to be born in the United States. I can't believe I have worry for her safety and future from an entire party of bigots.

I’m not even a US citizen but this is beyond ridiculous in so many levels. I cannot understand how this type of treatment towards Asian is acceptable in the US. Asians in the US really need to stand up for your rights. They think we Asian are just quiet and obedient and it makes me sick in the stomach.

I am an Indian living in Malaysia....great job Ronnei...u gave a brilliant answer in ur own way...how could fox news air such pathetic reporting...well done bro

[@kingranches]

Ok, were going to give you a pass on this question because youre not from the States. The answer to your question " how could fox news air such pathetic reporting" is simply, because ITS FOX NEWS and pathetic, easily exposed, propaganda is all they do. You see, in the US, the Daily Show bills itself as a comedy show, not REAL news, but the truth is all they speak. At the same time Fox NEWS bills itself as REAL NEWS but is actually a propaganda tool for republicans and all they tell is LIES, to people who believe that there is no such thing as reality, and that the truth is anything enough people WISH were true or that you can get enough people to believe. -Don't even try to figure that out, its an American thing... Just remember it.
