Her quote says "other women on TV" and "Some women feel they need to dress and look like porn stars to make it on TV." She did not say "Other women on cable news." So she very well may have been referring to local TV news (where lots of women do dress pretty provocatively) or maybe even sitcoms and reality TV. I don't think you can possibly discern who she is targeting when making those comments. I don't see how she could possibly have gotten her point across any more effectively without calling any specific person out.
Sitcoms and reality shows have a different standard than a news channel. Cleavage and very short dresses are expected there, not really appropriate when talking about ISIS and the Presidential campaign. The joke was about women on a cable news channel, so it's not a stretch to think that is what Jenna was talking about.
It's not a stretch, but I don't think anyone but Jenna can say for sure who she was referring to. Her message as a whole discussed the examples women on TV set for young girls, so it's also not a stretch to think she was taking about the TV medium as a whole. It looks like a deliberately vague reference.
At any rate, I don't think there's a way anyone can say she definitely was referring to her Fox News colleagues.
