Celebs Just Launched Nasty All-Out Assault On Sarah Sanders And Ivanka Trump
Kathy Griffin also felt unfairly targeted by the pro-trump mob and said
the president torched her career with the help of the Secret Service
so I guess headless presidents are also in the no-go zone Samantha be used the
most vile word imaginable in a crude and an artful attempt to get a Vonk Trump to
sway her dad's immigration policies leftward but you don't see the same
level of outrage over her malicious name-calling and she will most likely
just wait out the storm safely hunkered in the TBS bunker so when are words
deeds and when does social media betray your true ugly intentions why do some
people get a pass and others get dumped on and permanently tainted with gallons
of the crowd's vitriol part of it is the political crouch in the obligation to
defend people from the same tribe and minimize and rationalize their sins all
while demonizing the other side for the exact same thing we made me on different
sides of an oozing chasm but we cannot have it both ways
so either lives are ruined and heads will roll or we develop thicker skin and
accept the apologies of dummies even when we despise their words their deeds
and their obvious flaws the choice is ours but we have to pick a side and
that's the memo to week full of outrageous and over-the-line comments on
the heels of Roseanne bars hit show being canceled for her racist tweet
comedian Samantha bee is facing backlash the White House responded calling those
remarks vile and vicious B has since apologized saying her comments were
inexcusable and that she crossed the line despite the backlash celebrities
are standing by B Michael Moore is calling it a brilliant rant and Sally
Field is showing support with a bolder tweet of her own
there's also comedian Kathy Griffin she's going after White House press
secretary Sarah Sanders for this response to the Roseanne controversy the
president's pointing to the hypocrisy in the media saying that the most horrible
things about this president and nobody addresses it
where was the apology for Kathy Griffin going on a profane rant against the
president on the view after a photo showed showed her holding president
Trump's decapitated head okay Griffin tweeting B with lots of
asterisks do not come for me I did not call you and for F lots of asterixis
sake take a cold reading class maybe you won't stumble so much and if that's not
enough for you there is heavy metal band no punk band punk band NOFX which has
been dropped from a music festival for joking about the victims of the Las
Vegas shooting okay so it's Thursday so a TGIF tomorrow
it's been quite a week for all of these types of things Greg let me just turn it
over to you before some okay semblance of sense like bring us back to earth
what's going on well okay it feels like we're on an outrage superhighway yes and
it's all driven by emotion which creates these moments where people say things
and then those moments become opportunities for scalps right and the
scalps are then because if I don't like your politics I'm gonna get your scalp
and vice versa that leads to companies reacting in fear
firing people suspending people because they see the the pitchforks amassing as
a mob but here's here's the thing I you know Samantha P apologized and I oh and
I believe you should always accept an apology even though I know no one's
gonna return the favor to me this is what it is but I mean but I mean I would
say this for everybody here at the table that people are coming after you and
waiting for you to slip up at any moment there are organizations that are paid
millions that have sponsors that just wait for us to screw up so they can go
after your advertisers go after your livelihood your career so but we don't
do that like I would not say that to Samantha
bee I would not say it say she apologized that's fine
but I know that there's an industry of knives waiting for all of us and I
realize the only solution is that we have to do it back to them so it becomes
as mutually assured destruction but I don't want to do that
I can't we just stop doing this yeah when you say all of us you mean
conservatives yes on the right yeah everybody at Fox station yeah yeah dad
that's true they're people who are paid to monitor Fox News all day we'll just
sit there and they wait for you to say something that then they can create a
habit out of I think that's probably true yeah I mean my goodness Greg mm-hmm
the C word is the gender equivalent of the n-word it is extreme and it is
disgusting I mean you are talking about looking for a person to slip up here or
there this wasn't a slip up I think it's frontal assault I know you
miss my father Trump you're missing my point what I'm talking about is I'm
saying that I'm willing to accept an apology even though no one will ever
ever accept as we see I would say the way that we were all raised like that's
the right thing to do accept an apology me yes accept an apology but let me ask
you Geraldo about this so when Roseanne Barr did her tweet and her apology that
it was just a joke and then later on said well actually I was on ambien and
tried to blame that this actually was something I don't know if Samantha bee
intended or wrote into the script the c-word but it obviously wasn't it was a
reaction from the crowd the crowd loved it right which is is that why people
keep doing this well I I guess I you know Greg and I were speaking before the
show and he suggested that maybe she premeditated this because her ratings
have been lagging I asked about her ratings but to me this this is a larger
a larger problem I think that particularly about Ivanka I think that
to attack Ivanka for the purported sins of her father is extremely unfair and
you remember from your tenure in the White House you know the the kids okay
now this is not a kid this isn't a fully mature woman and entrepreneur
accomplished that she is working for no pay as is Jared Kushner her husband for
no pay I think they are both brilliant I think they're the most underestimated
people in Washington and I think they are easy marks for people like Samantha
B to be snotty to and and to attack and to try to tear down and I
that this was a absolutely premeditated how do i number one because I buy into
Greg's a point partially that this was premeditated as a ratings look at me
look at me but but number two to use something this vicious she knew does
that mean the C word it's just like well it's it's like Roseanne it's like
there's some places you just can't go anymore yeah that we've evolved past
Jesse they were very quick indecisive consequences for Roseanne and doesn't
look so much like that would be the case for Samantha be know they'll apologize
and put out a statement and in the media say let's move on she apologized on to
the next mark could be Greg rolling I think it's you I think you're probably
but I disagree with Geraldo I don't think the C word is the equivalent to
the n-word I think it's maybe down a notch not to say it's not bad but I
wouldn't equate what Roseanne said to Samantha the gender equivalent I said
could maybe the gender equivalent its category I don't I don't know how you
can slice or dice it it's ugly it's just not as ugly as the n-word I agree she's
looking for attention it's almost like a cry for help
the ratings aren't good she's not a talented comedian she's not on the level
of a Colbert or a Jon Stewart it's Samantha b-list people call her she's
trying to make waves and the only way she can do that is by being filthy and I
asked the brain room these people at Fox News that do all the big damaging thing
for you right I said give me a list of other nasty stuff she said I have three
pages of some of the most derogatory sexual slurs she's used against members
of the Trump family some of these things I can't even say about the president
almost every single one of them would don't be a tease you know what some of
the worst stuff she's reserved for the women Kellyanne Conway the B word F you
hope it's effing evil Sarah Sanders it's funny how these female comedians whether
it's a Chelsea Handler or a Samantha bee they
the worst for the women in the Trump world whether it's Melania or Ivanka or
Sarah Sanders because they I think have more license as liberal feminists so
just go nuts on these people you know a little something about they're also
really mad because their girl didn't win sure you know and these I feel like
these comedians have gone from being funny to just being angry and I like
your word your use of the word snotty because we're watching just adult Mean
Girls all the time and I I think comedians have a hard job in this day
and age because you have to walk a fine line you want to be funny but you can't
be too unpolitical II correct or then you risk you know did I say something to
offend someone here or there so they do have a tough job but comedy should
primarily be funny this isn't funny this is just someone
who has a problem with someone and it's turning into a mean-girl before our eyes
and seeing what she can get away with saying I do happen to think that this
had to be scripted this had people heard it this had to this was a network
decision to release this I mean I don't understand how something like this isn't
an off-the-cuff not a live show everybody all the way up to the top
brass I'm sure yeah networks have to make a decision about how they're gonna
handle this stuff because what you don't want it to look like is that they're
selective outrage and selective consequences because then people jump
and say is there an ideological reason why some people get fired and some
people don't so if you're gonna take a hard stance on people and say we live in
a day and age where we're not gonna tolerate insulting mean nasty stuff
that's not funny and it's just meant to make people feel bad or be racist or
whatever then you have to do that across the board otherwise you look like you're
being selected I think she's not going to be canned
because TBS doesn't think they're gonna lose audience if you saw the reaction
everybody cheered she may actually gain viewers after something see but I'm with
Chris Rose and I think people would turn that off see I would be inclined to
accept the apology but then it has to be if somebody apologizes across the board
there has to be a policy here that it's not like well one person says something
heinous and disgusting and they lose their job another person at another
network says something heinous and disgusting and they somehow keep their
job and then potentially get promoted so that doesn't make sense there's no but
this is how you this is how you make sense of this why there is selective
outrage goes back to what I believe Charles
Krauthammer said in the 80s the difference between left and right the
right thinks you're wrong the left thinks you're evil so that that defines
the selective outrage meaning that someone can get away with saying
something heinous about you because you're evil right but if I say something
equally is disgusting about I don't know any liberal they'll go like how could
you do that that's disgusting you you know you're you're a terrible person so
it's that it's that divide the they think you're evil we think they're wrong
that creates this culture that Greenlight's everything you can make
excuses yes for the disgust you're the dirty you just a bad person right
because their mission their political agenda is so righteous right that they
can allow for gaffes and things like this to happen in the in the in the goal
for what look I mean but the example is we you mentioned the bad no no effects
they made a joke about the shooting of these people and they said well at least
they were country music fans denying dead people yeah yeah but the we you
know why they did that because the assumption is that country music fans to
that liberal band are nothing but racists rednecks so the joke is okay
because they are bad people you see the point I think there's a there's another
point and it has to do with timing I have made my share of gaps and and some
of them I you know I've looked back on to have my god what was I thinking
yeah the timing of your apology is to me very critical for example if you
apologized as Samantha bee and Roseanne did hours after you talked to your PR
person you've talked to your management you've talked to your executive producer
you've seen an audience reaction you know and it's that I give that very
little credit I get I don't I don't in any way a that doesn't absolve the sin
if you do it almost immediately if you say oh my god did I screw up but you hit
the send button I obey that which I didn't do that let me get that back I
think that if there is this on a near spontaneous apology where it comes from
the soul where you you are your own policeman where you're your own
monitor and you're responding to what your own misdeed or misfeasance then I
say okay right cut him some slack but if it's a day later and they come on it's
not the point thank you god bless you and God bless
