Bernard Goldberg: Jon Stewart's "sewer rats" wrote "crazy hateful comments" on his website
The back and forth continues between Bernard Goldberg and Jon Stewart. Now Goldberg's upset that people left hateful comments on his blog and calls them Jon Stewart's "sewer rats".
I have no sympathy for someone who's hateful book was an inspiration for the gunman that shot that church up in Knoxville. As Dave noted:
No one is blaming O'Reilly or Goldberg directly for the killings that resulted. But there is at least some level of culpability here that they need to face responsibly.
That means dealing with the matter forthrightly: Reporting the whole facts of the matter (particularly that Adkisson was clearly inspired by their own incessant scapegoating of liberals, often with violent language along the lines of "Screw them") and making clear that in no way did they ever intend these words to be taken as a call to violent action.
Not that they ever will, of course. These guys are big battleships, dontcha know. Why be bothered with such little spitballs as basic decency and integrity?
I won't defend anyone leaving hateful comments at Goldberg's site but that's a far cry from someone being whipped into a frenzy to the point that they go out and shoot up a church full of innocent people. He's playing the victim over what some anonymous commenters wrote at his blog and he says that the Fox viewers would never do anything like that. Hey Bernie, go take a trip over to Freeperville if you think conservatives don't leave hateful comments on the Internet. Also unless you're trying to encourage more of them to do the same thing, don't go calling them "sewer rats".
h/t Media Matters
This "News Network" needs to be brought down, and fast.
We have put up with these morons for way too long.
Poor guy got some insulting words on his website.
Boo Fucking Hoo!
This network supports hate speech and violence against our nation and would rub its hands with glee if our President was assassinated.
Go Fuck Yourself!
Needs to stop trying to distract the media from real issues by starting a flame war with Jon Stewart (in which he can NEVER win). Go cry to Glenn Beck like the rest of the reslugs!
is one sad human being!!!
coming that proclaims......proud sewer rat!
....the fools do not realize,a population that can ,..... not paticipate .............in the 'economy'...,can not keep it viable!..........."we are listening,.......and we're not blind.,......this is your life....this is your time."
want!
Went on his website to have some back and forth (yes i know its pointless arguing with them but, hey i was bored), and they "moderated" an hour and a half of conversation. All these reslugs talk about freedoms, they "silence" my 1st amendment right on this guys website........sad really.
Go faux yourself
"Will the people watching your show right now go to Jon Stewart's site and tell him to go fuck himself? I don't think so"
No, that's for Dick Cheney to say to a sitting us US Senator on the congressional floor.
"wingnut" is for the right wing, "moonbat" is the term you wingnuts came up with for the left wing. I know our term for your side makes more sense, but don't try to co-opt our term for you. As difficult as it is for the dimwitted non-creative right wing, try to be original, ok?
just like Democrat inserted in the adjective form which should be Democratic, etc. etc.
Sounds like Orwell's Newspeak and Doublespeak to me.
Why is Bernie the one being interviewed on multiple FoxNews shows about Jon Stewart? It's almost as if he took the whole thing personally. Bernie - grow a pair.
in a fight Bernie started, and now he wants to whine about it. Color me surprised.
are Stewart's loyal core base and Fox viewers are sophisticated loving people? Keep sharing the love, Fox.
don't just post hateful anonymous things online, the carry hateful signs at Tea Bagger rallies.
Who is this person "the carry"?
...a liberal went from rage to violence? Baader-Meinhof? The Black Panthers? 30-40 years ago?! You sure as hell don't have to go back that far on the other side, now do ya...
XOXO,
Joe the Sewer Rat
He actually wants to piss off Daily Show fans because they're no doubt seeing a ratings bump from Daily Show fans watching Fox News to see if they talk about Jon. Calling fans Sewer Rats and then claiming Fox watchers would never do that is clearly him baiting for more.
That's pretty good. Bernie Goldberg has attempted to degrade me from proud Navy River Rat down to a Progressive Democratic sewer rat. Well, Bernie, I consider that a fuckin' promotion! No, I didn't leave hateful comments on his site, I've got better things to do with my time. But I have a suggestion.
Let's end every comment now on this thread with the rallying cry given to us by our mentor, Mr. Jon Stewart:
Go. Fuck. Yourself.
Feel free to use it, it's not copyrighted!

Bernie Goldberg is a professional victim, what do you expect?
Like the tee shirt idea, but I'd rather see a big old sewer rat hat on my head.
Nifty the way there was not a word spoken by Bernie as to the vile and lying statements made by him and Fox against the president. Not so funny when it's laying on your doorstep is it Bern.
Please do not call it Fox News - they are not, it's just Fox
Sewer rats unite!

We loyal FUX watchers would never use vulgar, hateful, insulting or denigrating language on the internets. We do it in person. We do it with signs and save it for tea bagger rallies. Oh, and we never do it without arming ourselves to put across the point that if you disagree with our hate, we will shoot you.
