"Stupid son of a b****": Joe Biden caught mocking a reporter

New Delhi : The US President Joe Biden was caught on mic calling a Fox News journalist a "stupid son of a bitch" apparently after a press conference at the White House.

In a video shared on social media, the journalists can be seen walking out from the area after the event, when a FOX News journalist asks Mr Biden whether inflation is a political liability.

The Democratic leader, possibly unaware that his microphone was still on, began by deadpanning: "It's a great asset. More inflation."

And then muttered, "What a stupid son of a bitch," before glancing briefly down.

The reporter later admitted that he was unable to hear what Mr President said due to other noises in the room.

But he added that he would "direct your attention to video of the event if you are curious how the president really feels about being asked about inflation from Fox's Peter Doocy."
