Fox News ridiculed for being 'triggered' over Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show

The top stories on the Fox News website attack Bad Bunny for drawing fury from President Donald Trump, who doesn't appear to be a fan of Puerto Rico. In fact, Trump dismisses Puerto Rico so much that he once suggested to trade the island for Greenland.

After the Super Bowl halftime show, in which Spanish-singing Bad Bunny advocated for love over hate and an embrace of multiculturalism, Trump raged on Truth Social.

Trump, who doesn't speak any language other than English, alleged the halftime show "makes no sense."

Fox News slammed Bad Bunny's show on its Spanish language website.

"Many viewers were frustrated that almost none of the show was in English," the subheadline read at Fox. The site also had a piece titled: "Turning Point USA's patriotic Super Bowl alternative earns praise as millions tune in over Bad Bunny."

While Kid Rock's lip-syncing show certainly drew millions of online viewers, Daniel Chavkin wrote in The Sporting News that the Super Bowl usually draws 100 million or more viewers. In fact, preliminary ratings show it set a new record with the highest ratings since 2018.

The Onion's CEO Ben Collins cracked up over one Fox headline reading: "Bad Bunny's halftime show ripped for language barrier, suspected political message." Collins wrote on BlueSky, "'Suspected political message' = in Spanish so the mouth noises scared me."

The Onion also published a mock report reading, "Terrified Conservatives Lose Ability to Speak English After Exposed to Bad Bunny Performance."

Researcher Mark Peifer pointed to the Fox headline "Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show ignites Trump's fury, divides viewers." Peifer responded, "I guess 95% loving it and 5% hating Bad Bunny is a 'division.'"

Mother Jones Washington Bureau chief David Corn commented, "Bad Bunny just gave Fox News three weeks of content."

Even Meghan McCain told Fox to lighten up. "I’m sorry, but I just genuinely question your taste level if you didn’t enjoy the Bad Bunny halftime show. And everything in life doesn’t have to be ruined with politics."

Fox opinion columnist Jorge Bonilla wrote that the halftime show was a "slap at America." Claiming it was "divisive" for "putting identity politics front and center."

He was swiftly called an "idiot."

Lawyer Alex Colangelo said of Fox News, "Seems like the free speech crowd were really triggered by Spanish music. Good thing they have a safe space over at Fox News."

The Super Bowl Party at Trump's Mar-a-Lago country club also showed the Bad Bunny halftime show instead of the Kid Rock version, according to a video from one observer.
