TELEVISION SHOCK: Fox News host Peter Doocy ‘ATT@CKED’ Live on Air – Viewers Terrified and Furious. The ‘Perpetrator’ left everyone Stunned!
When it comes to live television, you must be ready for anything, including having a pigeon land on your head.
That was the task Fox News’ Peter Doocy faced live on air on Friday, April 11. The network’s White House correspondent was reporting the latest on President Donald Tr::ump’s tariff plans for Fox and Friends.

As Doocy finished his report and his feed was made smaller on screen so Fox and Friends hosts Ainsley Earhardt, Lawrence Jones and Brian Kilmeade could wrap up the segment, a pigeon landed on Doocy’s head.
After quickly ducking his head, the pigeon flew away and out of the camera’s sight as Doocy exclaimed, “A bird just landed on my head!”

Soon after, however, the pigeon came back and flew in a circle around a startled Doocy, causing him to duck his head once more.
His fellow correspondents appeared to smile and laugh as Doocy finally came up to face the camera again.
Holding a pen with one hand and using the other to shoo off the bird, Doocy smiled and said, “I did not like that at all.”

“Your head is standing up now. What’s going on?” said Kilmeade before Jones jokingly chimed in, saying, “I mean, you got good hair.”
“That’s probably so… dirty,” said Doocy. “That had to be scary,” said Earhardt as Jones agreed, “that is probably so dirty.”
“Did he say dirty or scary?” asked Earhardt, causing Doocy to say, “Hey! President Tr::ump, if you’re watching upstairs, we’ve got to do something about these birds. Where’s the [National] Park Service? They are always out here sweeping the street and blowing [the leaves] except when the birds are landing on my head.”
The segment ended with Kilmeade telling Doocy he hoped the bird didn’t have the flu.

“Can we get the shampoo guy down here?” Doocy jokingly said in response.
The incident occurred the same day press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that a mouse had been spotted in the briefing room, per the New York Post. Her briefing ended in roughly 21 minutes afterwards.

“There was a mouse in the briefing room earlier today, so I’m hoping someone checked in on [it] so it doesn’t run out here and distract me! That would be a good way for all of you to distract me, actually,” Leavitt said per the outlet.
