"There was an episode of your podcast where you talked about your father, Bill Fuentes, and how he wouldn't take the family, including you, to certain restaurants because he believed they were associated with African-Americans, Morgan said. He continued with the anecdote, saying Fuentes's dad told him they would never eat at Applebee's. Morgan then read a quote from the younger Fuentes where he said Applebee's and Red Lobster were commonly known as Black fare."
"My question, based on that anecdote that you say on your own podcast is, do you think you grew up in a racist environment? Morgan asked. That your father was inherently racist? And that that thought process moved to you? Fuentes was not thrilled. Well, I would say it's a new low. I've been attacked for being a racist many times, but to attack my father? To attack my parents based on anecdotes Fuentes said."
Piers Morgan confronted Nick Fuentes about an anecdote in which Fuentes said his father avoided restaurants like Applebee's and Red Lobster because they were commonly known as Black fare. Morgan asked whether Fuentes grew up in a racist environment and whether his father was inherently racist. Fuentes objected to attacks on his parents, called the question a new low, and defended his father. Fuentes said his parents ran a company teaching people to shoot guns and that most of the clients were Black. Morgan said he was not trying to ambush Fuentes and called the question reasonable.
