Walter Masterson is an American comedian and progressive pundit.

Masterson was present at the January 6 United States Capitol attack, interviewing others. His videos were used to spread the conspiracy that the attack was staged, which was reported false.[1][2][3]

In April and May 2021, he fed pigeons at 1211 Avenue of the Americas, headquarters of the Fox Corporation, in order to turn it into a bird sanctuary.[4]

In April 2024, during a Columbia University protest, he was assaulted by protesters while he was wearing a Stormtrooper costume.[5]
