Fox News host Jesse Watters recently featured a segment asking “Why are Women so Mad These Days?” He interviewed a woman named Mia Banducci, a witch who goes by the name “Mia Magick.” Banducci hosts what are called “rage rituals,” where women go out into the woods to release their “sacred rage.” Video shared of the ritual shows women rubbing themselves with dirt, beating the ground with sticks, and screaming at the tops of their lungs. Banducci, who promotes herself dressed as a witch on her website, describes herself as “an ambassador for the ancient magikal way returning home to our modern day” and that her “mission is to reclaim our unique and eternal inner wisdom, what makes us a ‘Witch,’ to bring our visions to fruition. My life is dedicated to reawakening the power of the feminine Divine Nature for us all to reconnect with the unconditionally loving Great Mother Goddess on our planet.” Banducci told Watters she offers her sessions as a way to heal.

The interview did not impress Jenn Nizza, a former witch who converted to Christianity and has devoted her life warning others against dabbling in the occult. Speaking to The Christian Post, she criticized Banducci’s assertion that she wants to help women heal. “The problem with this is that, one, you’re pointing to something demonic — you’re pointing to man, and you’re pointing to the devil — to heal from trauma wounds, and it can’t heal,” she said. She went on to add that, “Beating the earth until you’re blue in the face cannot heal you,” and that the women were “opening demonic doors.” She pointed to Banducci’s financial gains, rage rituals can cost hundreds, even thousands of dollars, as an even further “demonic contradiction. “The money is the icing on the cake, because you’re not going to have the devil without money. It’s going to cost you and cost you, and you’re going to be that little hamster on the wheel,” she said. “That’s what it is, because there’s not any solution. There’s no true healing. Demons don’t heal. Demons don’t care about your daddy issues. They don’t care. They just want you to stay away from God.”

This is not the first time Nizza has called out the network, nor is it the first time this year Watters has featured occult practices. In January, he had “The English Psychic” Paula Roberts read tarot cards about the upcoming 2024 election. In a segment separate from Watters, “Fox and Friends” featured an astrologist who discussed the upcoming solar eclipse and the ways it might impact people’s lives. The astrologist also offered predictions for the hosts. Nizza posted a TikTok in response to the segment, asking Fox News to stop highlighting the occult. “This is what the devil does; this is his agenda,” she said. “I understand the desire for ratings and for money, but you’re not going to take that with you when you go. I would really think about that: serving God and pleasing God, not man.”
