Media Matters searched transcripts in the SnapStream video database for all original episodes of Fox News Channel’s The Five, Special Report with Bret Baier, The Ingraham Angle, Jesse Watters Primetime, Hannity, Gutfeld!, and Fox News @ Night for either of the terms “Portland” or “Oregon” from September 22, 2025, when President Donald Trump issued an executive order designating “antifa” as a “domestic terrorist organization,” through October 7, 2025, the day before a presidential roundtable discussion on “antifa” with right-wing media figures.
We included segments, which we defined as instances when the ongoing anti-ICE protests in Portland, Oregon, were the stated topic of discussion or when we found significant discussion of the protests. We defined significant discussion as instances when two or more speakers in a multitopic segment discussed the protests with one another.
We did not include mentions, which we defined as instances when a single speaker in a segment on another topic mentioned the anti-ICE protests without another speaker engaging with the comment, or teasers, which we defined as instances when the anchor or host promoted a segment about the protests scheduled to air later in the broadcast.
We then reviewed the identified segments for whether newscasters used any b-roll footage. If so, we reviewed all such b-roll for whether the segment used any amount of footage from any of the following sources: Andy Ngo (editor-at-large, The Post Millennial), Brandi Kruse (podcaster), Cam Higby (personality, Today is America), Frontlines TPUSA, Government Accountability Institute, Human Events, Jack Posobiec (host, Human Events Daily), James Klug (YouTuber), Jonathan Choe (senior fellow, Discovery Institute), Julio Rosas (correspondent, The Blaze), Katie Daviscourt (correspondent, The Post Millennial), Nick Shirley (YouTuber), Nick Sortor (influencer), Savanah Hernandez (contributor, Turning Point USA), Seamus Bruner (research director, Government Accountability Institute), The Blaze, The Post Millennial, or Turning Point USA.
We also searched our internal database of all original, weekday programming on Fox News Channel (shows airing from 6 a.m. through midnight) for segments that analysts determined to include any of the aforementioned individuals as guests or correspondents from August 1, 2017, through October 7, 2025.
