Yeah yeah yeah
youre very lawyerly. Fuck that shit. These Trump Republicans are planning a nationwide putsch of local and state governments and our absolute right to have our votes counted and youre jerking us off with your Newspeak fairness. Youre not a newsman, youre a commentator so why dont you stop with the both-siderism and be more like Edward R Murrow who chucked his reporter hat and decided to help save Democracy in this country.
Remember, if you keep this up, there surely aint gonna be no George Clooney type making a film or Broadway show about your heroism in fifty years. Youre gonna just disappear like Edwin Newman, Frank McGee, or Charles Collingwood. Who?? Who???
As Al Pacino said in the film Heat: What are you, a fucking owl? Straighten up and fly right. You have biblical morality on your side if you want it.
Or you can be a schmuck. Your choice. You can be Ari Melber who assisted America in righting itself or you can be the answer to a trivia question.
My rant is now complete. Im here all week. Try the veal.

(54,751 posts)I can't take more than 45 seconds of his pseudo-bro BS. He is SO annoying that I purposely choose to avoid him and his BS. Worst anchor ever, besides Katy!!!!!!!!!!! MS NOW is a shit show.
Bill Maher also falls into this category. I've boycotted him for years. After he had Bari Weiss on and in unison they declared (as the health professionals that they are) that for them "Covid is OVER!!" I boycotted them. Bill is a greedy ass kisser and misogynist...why is he still on TV. Everyone with a triple digit IQ hates him at this point.
Nope, both Bill are Bari are OVER!!!!!
