Video: US President Joe Biden caught cursing journalist on live microphone

<p>
US President Joe Biden was recorded on a live microphone on Monday calling a Fox News journalist a "stupid son of a bitch" at a press briefing in the White House.</p>
<p>
As journalists were leaving the room after the event, a reporter from pro-Republican TV channel Fox News asked the US President whether inflation is a political liability.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">
Democrats: Donald Trump’s attacks on the press are an attack on the First Amendment.<br />
<br />
Joe Biden to Peter Doocy: “What a stupid son of a b*tch.”<br />
<br />

The Democratic leader, unaware that his microphone was still on, began by saying, "It's a great asset. More inflation."</p>
<p>
And then muttered under his breadth: "What a stupid son of a bitch."</p>
<p>
Peter Doocy, the Fox News reporter did not hear the words at the time amid the noise. He later disclosed that Biden had called him within the hour and said: "It's nothing personal, pal."</p>
