Fox News host Greg Gutfeld got into a heated Twitter exchange Friday with CNN reporter Oliver Darcy after Darcy tweeted out his disapproval of Fox News’ decision to air “The Five” instead of impeachment footage.
“CNN’s gonna write, ‘During impeachment, The Five discuses hair,'” Gutfeld joked on the show before referring specifically to CNN anchor Brian Stelter: “That’s your story, Brian!”

“Not that it’s surprising at this point, but it’s still worth noting: At 5pm, Fox stopped airing Trump’s Senate trial in favor of ‘The Five,'” Darcy tweeted Friday during the show’s airing. “CNN & MSNBC continue to show it.” (RELATED: ‘Can I Talk Now?’: Things Get Tense When Martha MacCallum Presses Sen.
