Fox News anchor Jeanine Pirro provided a bizarre justification for Jason Aldean's choice to film his music video in a 100-year-old lynching site

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Fox News personality Jeanine Pirro is looking for justifications for why country music artist Jason Aldean recorded the now-controversial music video in front of a Tennessee courthouse that served as the scene of a horrific lynching of a Black man one hundred years ago. Pirro, on July 19, provided a bizarre explanation for Aldean's choice of filming location for his song that has been interpreted as "an ode to the notorious 'sundown towns' of the past," as per The Wrap. The country singer's controversial song lyrics have sentiments like, "Try that in a small town, see how far ya make it down the road… You cross that line, it won’t take long for you to find out/recommend you don’t.”

In a segment on 'The Five,' discussing why the Country Music Television channel banned the song 'Try That in a Small Town', Pirro said, “Don’t you think he’s trying to show that there hasn’t been much progress and that, you know, Black Lives Matter is violating the law themselves at this point.” She then added, "Rioting and burning," alluding to news images seen in Aldean's video, "That's what occurred a century later." It is likely, Pirro's professional career will now be steeped in controversy too as even her cohost Greg Gutfeld avoided meeting her eyes after her comments. But what about her personal life? Is it just as tumultuous?

Who is Jeanine Pirro engaged to?

Pirro is not engaged to anyone right now and is living single. She was formerly married to American lobbyist Albert Pirro, but their union ended in separation in 2007 and then divorce in 2013. A well-known American television broadcaster, author, and former judge, prosecutor, and politician in New York State, Jeanine Ferris Pirro was born on June 2, 1951. She rose to prominence as the anchor of 'Justice with Judge Jeanine' on the Fox News Channel from 2010 to 2022, after which she switched to cohosting 'The Five.'

Jason Aldean says his song is not 'pro-lynching'

In a lengthy tweet on Tuesday, Aldean emphasized that "Try That in a Small Town" is not "a pro-lynching song."

However, the controversy over the song after CMT pulled the video has only increased after explainers came out to analyze the lyrics like, “Got a gun that my granddad gave me/ They say one day they’re gonna round up/ Well that s--- might fly in the city/ Good luck,” and "Try that in a small town/ Full of good ol’ boys, raised up right/ If you’re looking for a fight." The Washington Post, for instance, in its explainer said Aldean's “good ol’ boys” from a small town referred to the 1990s scandal about the annual law-enforcement gathering in Tennessee called the “Good Ol’ Boys Roundup” that orchestrated a simulated lynching.
