Fox News Defies Arsonists and Hecklers With Grand Christmas Tree Lighting Mediaite's Aidan McLaughlin was on the scene for the extravagant and festive relighting of the Fox News "All-American Christmas Tree," just a day after the original was torched by a suspected arsonist. A large crowd of Fox News mega-fans assembled outside the News Corp. building – bundled up, as temperatures hovered just above freezing – where a fleet of the network’s top stars gathered at an outdoor set. The hosts of The Five — Jesse Watters, Greg Gutfeld, Jeanine Pirro, Jessica Tarlov and Dana Perino — emceed the event, which was attended by other network stars including Bill Hemmer, Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt, Pete Hegseth, Janice Dean, Sean Duffy and Rachel Campos-Duffy, Harris Faulkner, Todd Piro, Carly Shimkus and Lawrence Jones. Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott and President Jay Wallace were also in attendance. “Take that arsonist!” Gutfeld exclaimed after a troupe of carolers finished a song.
