Summary

The host of the Fox News shows Watters World and The Five lays out the only path forward for our nation—listening to him—in this funny, offbeat book which echoes his irreverent voice。

Many things have made our nation great。 An unparalleled group of Founding Fathers。 A history of increasing freedom and equality。 A tradition of muckraking journalism。 And Jesse Watters chasing corrupt judges and idiot CEOs down hallways to shove a microphone in their face。

In My Plan to Save the World, Watters takes readers on a tour of his life from basement-dwelling Fox minion to pampered champion of right-thinking Americans。 He has divined great truths about the nature of our country while stumbling across beaches asking oblivious college students basic political questions and while stumbling over basic political questions on Air Force One with the President。 Interspersed are his thoughtful suggestions for overcoming left-wing radicalism, maintaining American democracy, moving beyond aging hippies (like his long-suffering parents), saving the world from social justice warriors and the deep state—all while rolling his eyes at Juan Williams in only the nicest way。 

Watters outlines the stark choices ahead of us, between all-American hamburgers and leftist Green New Deal breadlines (okay, maybe that one is a no-brainer) and shows the way for order and fairness to be restored。 A manifesto and a call-to-arms from a man for all seasons, My Plan to Save the World is a hilarious, enlightening, entertaining book with a reasonable chance of winning a Nobel Prize in every category, even chemistry。

A quick read。 Amusing。 Lots of self-deprecating humor mixed with sarcasm。 Nevertheless a thoughtful work, pointing out much of the nefarious goings-on in today's media-big-tech-political world。 A quick read。 Amusing。 Lots of self-deprecating humor mixed with sarcasm。 Nevertheless a thoughtful work, pointing out much of the nefarious goings-on in today's media-big-tech-political world。 。。。more

Most books by news reporters or pundits are pretty boring and self aggrandizing or political diatribes。 Jesse Watters' "How I Saved the World" is mostly a memoir, but certainly does set forth his politics。 However, whether you agree or disagree with those politics, this book is entertaining, funny and a refreshing breath of fresh air in the genre。 Watters doesn't pretend to be what he is not。 His humor is almost entirely self-deprecating and he never takes himself very seriously。 Most books by news reporters or pundits are pretty boring and self aggrandizing or political diatribes。 Jesse Watters' "How I Saved the World" is mostly a memoir, but certainly does set forth his politics。 However, whether you agree or disagree with those politics, this book is entertaining, funny and a refreshing breath of fresh air in the genre。 Watters doesn't pretend to be what he is not。 His humor is almost entirely self-deprecating and he never takes himself very seriously。 。。。more

Funny book and a must read for anyone who takes politics too seriously。

JW is a male Foxnews idiot with a lot of money。 Fox lies constantly。

Jesse and his world。。。Loved this book。 Jesse's humor is intoxicating。 Found myself laughing out loud often。 This book is a funny commentary on the sad state of affairs fracturing our country then and now。 Can't wait for your next book, Jesse。 I will continue to watch you on Fox news。 Jesse and his world。。。Loved this book。 Jesse's humor is intoxicating。 Found myself laughing out loud often。 This book is a funny commentary on the sad state of affairs fracturing our country then and now。 Can't wait for your next book, Jesse。 I will continue to watch you on Fox news。 。。。more

Jesse Watters can be a bit much。 That being said; the book was funny and self-depreciating。 Reading the book is kind of like watching him on television over the years。 At first, I was a bit annoyed, but I warmed up to the book as I read it。 The best portion of the book was 'How I Saved My Mom's Texts'。 Jesse Watters can be a bit much。 That being said; the book was funny and self-depreciating。 Reading the book is kind of like watching him on television over the years。 At first, I was a bit annoyed, but I warmed up to the book as I read it。 The best portion of the book was 'How I Saved My Mom's Texts'。 。。。more

Watters World Triumphed Jesse Watters does a great job of telling about encounters with people that he interviewed for Watters World。 I liked his analysis of the 2020 Presidential election。

How I Saved the World is a sometimes funny, often perceptive memoir by Jess Watters, a political commentator on Fox News。 He has his own show, Watters World, and is co-host of the very popular The Five。In How I Saved the World, he shares how he got where he is today, the jobs he’s had & lost, and the ones where he feels he had the most impact。 A good number of the chapters were about assignments he had for the O’Reilly Factor and his experiences ambushing various nefarious characters who didn’t How I Saved the World is a sometimes funny, often perceptive memoir by Jess Watters, a political commentator on Fox News。 He has his own show, Watters World, and is co-host of the very popular The Five。In How I Saved the World, he shares how he got where he is today, the jobs he’s had & lost, and the ones where he feels he had the most impact。 A good number of the chapters were about assignments he had for the O’Reilly Factor and his experiences ambushing various nefarious characters who didn’t want to be interviewed by the press。 He shares texts from his politically liberal mother who critiques his performance on The Five, and snippets of random comments from one of his co-hosts。 My favorite parts of the book were the hysterically funny chapter one in which a teenage Jesse is sent to survival camp (How I Saved the Great Outdoors) and chapter 16 (How I Saved the Election), which gives an good overview of what happened during President Trump’s last year in office。 。。。more

tWatters' conversational style, personal experiences, political insights and razor-sharp wit are key components in his compelling story — one that delivers tremendous payoff — from his account of a certain harrowing NYC subway ride to recollections of being raised by ultra liberal parents to the startling revelation that during his time working at The O'Reilly Factor, many staff members were — democrats。His lifelong work ethic is impressive。 Earning his current celebrated FOX News status, Watter tWatters' conversational style, personal experiences, political insights and razor-sharp wit are key components in his compelling story — one that delivers tremendous payoff — from his account of a certain harrowing NYC subway ride to recollections of being raised by ultra liberal parents to the startling revelation that during his time working at The O'Reilly Factor, many staff members were — democrats。His lifelong work ethic is impressive。 Earning his current celebrated FOX News status, Watters "did what (he) was told," as he climbed the ladder from the basement newsroom to the executive boardroom, from behind-the-scenes anonymity to front-and-center notoriety。 Watters cooks with gas, reflecting on his past journalistic missions, from Hollywood high-clearance events to a Florida nude beach resort to an Ivy League gay sex party。 He even once rescued the baby Jesus from the clutches of Satan — sorta。 Love him or hate him, "How I Saved the World" is as edge-of-your-seat riveting as it is laugh-out-loud funny。 And as Watters himself points out frequently throughout, he's "the nicest guy in the world。"From puffed-up to self-deprecating, Watters' engaging and candid sense of humor drives the story, as he takes readers on his 300-page ambush — making friends, burning bridges and dropping names all along the way。 However, a few names have been changed, e。g。 Ruddy Balzac — priceless。 And his mom's near-endless slew of scathing text messages are hilarious。Even Watters likely would confess that the book's bold title might overreach a smidge。 Clearly a multi tasker, he can peck at his keyboard and wink at his audience simultaneously。 And by not taking himself too seriously, he lets us all in on the gag。 Although I'd dispute the claim that he "saved the world," for a guy like me who was starved for a seasonal treat, Watters definitely at least saved my summer。-Christopher Long(July 2021) 。。。more

Debbie Kogut

Smart, funny, and worth readingI really enjoyed reading about the many experiences Jesse shared in his book。 He makes so much sense in a time when so many things are out of wack。 His mom's text messages and his responses were hilarious。 I highly recommend this book!

Eddie Haskell?Does anyone else think that Jesse is a modern day Eddie Haskell? You'd have to have grown up in the 50s or 60s to remember him。 I loved the book。 Eddie Haskell?Does anyone else think that Jesse is a modern day Eddie Haskell?

I don't usually read non-fiction but I heard Jesse Watters talking about this on TV。 There was something in what he said that made me think I might like this。 It is written as an almost comedic biography but it was so interesting to hear his history and get some of the background of how the tv news industry works。 It was also interesting hearing about Trump as a regular person and no just how he is portrayed。 I thought it was worth my time and I'm glad I read it。 Now back to fiction where I belo I don't usually read non-fiction but I heard Jesse Watters talking about this on TV。 There was something in what he said that made me think I might like this。 It is written as an almost comedic biography but it was so interesting to hear his history and get some of the background of how the tv news industry works。 It was also interesting hearing about Trump as a regular person and no just how he is portrayed。 I thought it was worth my time and I'm glad I read it。 Now back to fiction where I belong。 。。。more

Very much his personality。 Very little of the truly personal revealed。 He is a TOUGH cookie。 Despite his Mom emails/ texts and youth stories this is all about the TV news career / persona。 Not that it is a bad thing at all, but just not what you would expect from a memoir of someone who is 41 or 42 at the writing。Loved some of the chapters, but most were name call and ambush detail "interview" stories。 I thought he was at core honest but at the same time his personality is so "me" centered that Very much his personality。 Very little of the truly personal revealed。 He is a TOUGH cookie。 Despite his Mom emails/ texts and youth stories this is all about the TV news career / persona。 Not that it is a bad thing at all, but just not what you would expect from a memoir of someone who is 41 or 42 at the writing。Loved some of the chapters, but most were name call and ambush detail "interview" stories。 I thought he was at core honest but at the same time his personality is so "me" centered that it becomes a framed with savvy portrait more than an heartfelt bilge of feeling reckoning or some reactive to experience posit。 Actually I truly enjoyed it but could care less about all the CPAC and Media dinner extravaganzas of he said, she said to be enthralled。 So many of these people are not worth the read time。 Truly。 Most especially the Hollywood or music scene/ sports so called icons。 Most of them are mental midgets。 The stories often confirm。 But it also takes way, way more guile and hubris to mix, IMHO。 So much posturing!Lots of true humor though, and that's rare in this tawdry and trivial gripe / victim time。 Complaining and venting has become an art form。 This is NOT one of those, in fact the opposite。 His childhood assignments to survival and independence leadership camps sound appalling。 Child abuse by some good liberals (his parents sound appalling), I tend to believe。Regardless his equivocations about the other people on The Five were 5 star。 I couldn't agree with him more。 Final note。 I would NOT wanted to me married to Jesse Watters。 He is absolutely his biggest fan。 In all aspects。 。。。more

Great read!Funny, interesting, very witty, educational, but so right on the money with how Americans are cheated, lied to every day。 So good to be able to know others are in your corner and think/believe the liberals and Democrats haven't fooled everyone。 Great read!Funny, interesting, very witty, educational, but so right on the money with how Americans are cheated, lied to every day。 So good to be able to know others are in your corner and think/believe the liberals and Democrats haven't fooled everyone。 。。。more

Great readThis book is both interesting and informative。 I enjoy Jesse’s funny wit and insightfulness。 His stories about those he works with is also funny and informative。 I also believe he has a a great grasp of the political landscape。 He tells it like it is for “ the folks “。 Bill O’reilly should be proud。

Judy Lindhorst

Great entertainment & really enjoyed this fast reading book。 Love when someone can laugh at themselves & tell the world about it!

ED MIDDLETON

Entertaining and interestingWas expecting an entertaining read but it was way more interesting than I anticipated。 Personal history tied to past and current politics was well worth the read。 Will certainly buy the next book。

Randa Hoffman

Great relaxing readEnjoyed this book immensely。 I love self deprecation funny honesty。 Jesse learns his strengths and weaknesses, but faces challenges with bravo and humor。

Janice Hamilton

Appreciate the insightI liked Trump because I was sick of America having to kiss the feet of the olpec oil tyrants。 It was good to see an American President stand up to the enemies of our country。 It's never a intelligent move to expect perfection from a mere man。 In spite of his imperfections he did good things for this country。 Thank you for the enlightenment。 Appreciate the insightI liked Trump because I was sick of America having to kiss the feet of the olpec oil tyrants。 It was good to see an American President stand up to the enemies of our country。 It's never a intelligent move to expect perfection from a mere man。 In spite of his imperfections he did good things for this country。 Thank you for the enlightenment。 。。。more

I took a break from reading mostly Catholic books。 So forgive me if I make no comparisons。 Such a funny, politically enlightening book。 It’s a easy read comparatively speaking though。 Read the book in three days, laughing my way through。 Although you claim to be on the stupid side, I paid $30 for a signed copy as bragging rights。 Keep going Jesse, you’ve got a great gig going。 Make your Mother proud。
