Joe Goldberg, who? There's a Laura Ingraham You flub earning viral status, and with good reason. After a cringeworthy segment on The Ingraham Angle, the Fox News anchor could seemingly benefit from a Netflix binge. 

While discussing "woke" TV shows with Raymond Arroyo, the host became irate when her guest repeatedly mentioned You and an episode with measles in the storyline. She had thought Arroyo was referring to her, not the thriller sensation everyone is talking about. 

"I was watching an episode of You where measles came up," he said. 

"Wait, wait, wait. When did I mention measles," Ingraham fired back. 

"I don't know, it was on You," Arroyo responded. 

"What was on me?!" 

Arroyo repeatedly tried to get the TV host to understand that You is the name of the show, but to no avail. It's safe to say she probably hasn't read the You series by Caroline Kepnes, either. The books were bestsellers and the TV adaptation was only in the Netflix Top 10...

Joe Goldberg weighs in

The bookseller turned psycho killer himself, played by Penn Badgley, caught the segment but wasn't entirely convinced that this back-and-forth was authentic. 

"It's definitely a bit," he wrote on Twitter. 

Netflix even replied and agreed that it was "100% a bit." 

Let's have Cardi B, You super fan and Badgley's new BFF, weigh in on the subject matter, shall we?

Sources claim that Arroyo has more or less confirmed that this was in fact a set-up, according to Insider (opens in new tab). Regardless of whether or not this whole minute-long fiasco was staged, we think we found the perfect TV and book indulgence for Ingraham during the Thanksgiving holiday!
