Fox Sports' Clay Travis stuns and infuriates CNN's Brooke Baldwin with repeated mentions of his belief in 'boobs'

Fox Sports' Clay Travis, known for his bombastic statements, stunned CNN's Brooke Baldwin on Friday with a particularly shocking remark. As Travis, Baldwin, and former ESPN writer Keith Reed discussed the recent White House controversy surrounding ESPN's Jemele Hill, Travis slipped in a jarring declaration about his beliefs. "I believe in only two things completely: the First Amendment and boobs," Travis said, explaining why he thought it was a mistake for ESPN to censor its employees.

"Hold on, hold on," Baldwin interjected. "I just wanted to make sure I heard you correctly as a woman anchoring this show. Did you say ... what did you just say? You believe in the First Amendment and b-double o-b-s?"

"Boobs," Travis confirmed. "The two things that have never let me down: the First Amendment and boobs." He then continued to make his case for why Hill should not be fired for calling Trump a "white supremacist."

Baldwin was still too hung up on Travis' "boobs" comment to continue the discussion. She clarified once again that Travis was talking about "boobs," not "booze." "Why would you even say that live on national television and with a female host?" Baldwin asked, before calling it quits on the "entirely inappropriate" conversation.
