"Sons of Anarchy" creator calls Brent Bozell "a pathetic f**king douchebag"

Kurt Sutter, creator of the popular FX television show, Sons of Anarchy, about a gun running motorcycle gang which nominally runs a small town in Northern California recently found himself in a position where he had no choice but to put a major smackdown on Brent Bozell, founder or the Parents Television Council, self-appointed arbiters of what the rest of us should be watching on TV. Bozell published an opinion piece last week slamming the show for supposedly exploiting the Newtown tragedy for monetary gain while simultaneously “shaping children’s tastes with ultraviolent television.”

His rant was inspired by a scene in the season premiere in which there is a mass shooting in a private Catholic school. In his estimation this is the “left exploiting the tragedy in Newtown” to promote an anti gun agenda and for shock value, rejecting Sutter’s explanation that it is a part of the slow development of the plot line showing the unavoidable consequences of the gang’s illegal activities.

Sutter was understandably outraged at the unprovoked and unjustified attack from this TEApublican and responded in kind, only with slightly more colorful language than that used by the sanctimonious Bozell in an open letter in which he refers to him as a, “pathetic fucking douchebag.” He also characterized PTC as a “hate group” which has, “no real interest in the betterment of children.”

He told Bozell, “You reek of McCarthyism and holy water. And right-minded folks can smell you coming a mile away.” He also tells him that he can motivate the, “four other members, tell them that the tattoo-covered, liberal freak who writes that baby-killing, urine dunking show said this: “You’re a pathetic fucking douchebag and I bet your own kids fucking hate you!"
