Fox News host Laura Ingraham has become the talk of the town after a video featuring her confusing herself with the popular Netflix show You went viral. A guest on the show, Raymond Arroyo begins speaking about the Penn Badgley-starrer and Ingraham does not seem to have a clue about the show and assumes he is talking about her. Arroyo also brought up the episode about measles in the show and said, “I was watching an episode of You when measles came up", and Ingraham began to wonder when she brought up the topic, starting a laughter riot online. The video also caught Penn Badgley's attention and he was convinced Arroyo was doing a bit with the TV presenter.

Raymond Arroyo spoke about 'work storylines' in shows and recalled the episode of You in which Joe and Love's son gets the measles. The episode touches on the topic of the vaccine and anti-vaxxers and Arroyo began to speak about the show. He said, “I was watching an episode of You where measles came up,” Arroyo said. Ingraham was taken by surprise and said, “Wait, wait, wait, when did I mention measles?” He replied, “I don’t know. It was on You.” Seeming even more confused, she asked, "What was on me? What are you talking about? I never had the measles." The conversation went on in this manner for one minute, and the internet had a field day with it.
