Just so EVERYONE here knows, in this thread:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x743431

DU poster Moonbeam_Starlight reports that SCUMBAG Fox anchor John Gibson today, 9/3/04 at 5 pm eastern said about Bill Clinton's upcoming bypass:

"The bad news for people who dislike him (Clinton) is that these types of operations are so successful."



I'm so angry I'm ready to explode.

This man should be FIRED.

I don't watch Fox news but we CAN'T let this stand folks. Secret Service, letters to the editor, Fox NETWORK boycott (bye bye American Idol), SOMETHING has to be done to get these SICK FUCKS off the air.

1. FUCK YOU....

GIBSON....:grr:

17. He answered my e-mail!

Little worm...

was your remark about Mr. Clinton. "The bad news for people who dislike him (Clinton)is that these types of operations are so successful"...you are one sleazebag, Gibson. As much as I detest King George, I have never, nor would I ever, wish him harm! The same for Raygun...when he passed, I felt for Nancy and did not once participate in the "celebration" of many, over his death.

You people at Faux News are sick, twisted, lying, unpatriotic, cheneying jerks! Mr. Clinton has more class, more dignity, more compassion in his little finger that the lot of you combined! Shame on you!

XXXXXXXX

HIS "thoughtful" response:

you are soooooo off base. i was saying clinton will do well in this operation and good for him. you just hate so much you can't hear what is said.

19. What an ASSHOLE!

What a "journalist."

:eyes:

[Seldona]

2. Agreed.

Even for Faux, that is just beyond the pale.

Want to go insane with rage?

Go over to the Yahoo News board on the Clinton story.

Thousands of people, mainly trolls I suppose, are absolutely overjoyed by this.

What can you say really?

Sick beyond repair.

[Old and In the Way]

3. He looks like a young Karl Rove, with hair.

A pretty disgusting attempt at being funny. "Fair and Balanced", my arse.

[Bombtrack]

5. With really, really, odd hair

[Lindacooks]

29. Plus he really, really needs braces

[krkaufman]

4. To verify...

... check with MediaMatters.org. They record all this stuff for review.

[jackstraw45]

7. Again, I'm not the one who saw it but I emailed them to verify....

I just would be surprised if the DU Poster in the campaign forum would make this kind of thing up.

I'm so angry and disgusted.

[Sugarbleus]

9. Thanks, going there now...

I hate it when I get my chain yanked. If this IS true, I would think it in violation of some FCC reg. Wouldn't you?

Okay, off to verify... bbl

[EnfantTerrible]

6. WHAT A FUCKING ASSHOLE!!!

More "compassionate conservativism"


:mad::grr:

[flordehinojos]

8. what else can you expect out of a low life like john gibson?

}(

[Mojambo]

10. Pitiful

A sorry excuse for a human being.

[pacalo]

11. Kerry needs to make some serious changes at the FCC.

[bleowheels]

12. This guy is an extreme right wing radio host who was hired for

fox television because he is an extreme right wing radio host. They hoped he could replicate his radio show for television. well, obviously he has.

[Only Me]

13. This is like earlier today on the Yahoo news, well over 652+

had read the story about President Clinton, it had a rating like 2.72 or something, then I look at the comments and the trolls were keeping it down. They were not rating it or rating it low..So it looked unimportant. They have been doing this to our news all week. :mad: They had stupid shrubs speech at #1 for hours.

[VOX]

14. I, my wife, her mom and our friends have been doing some e-mail activism..

on this one -- we've been firing off articulate but thoroughly pissed-off e-mails to Fox, with copies going to our respective governor's offices, senator's offices, and other news outlets.

I have no idea how effective this kind of "electronic offensive" is, but taking some action sure beat sitting around feeling enraged by this.

[fortyfeetunder]

15. Let's hope HE needs some bypass surgery later on...

The sooner the better!

Or may he suffer the fate of Lee Atwater, he was essentially a nasty, mudslinging dog (a la Willie Horton fame), until inoperable brain cancer changed his whole attitude about how to treat people. Sorry Lee, the grim reaper does not forgive...

[Michael Harrington]

16. He's a colostomy bag.

Always was. I'm glad he's on Fox, because that means he's essentially invisible to me.

Can't see what you don't watch.

[AntiCoup2K4]

22. I believe that hatred literally ate Lee Atwater's brain

If the kind of hate they spew isn't a cancer, I don't know what is.

[Gothic Sponge]

18. Unbelievable!

[Snotcicles]

20. His one shot

at getting even at everybody for teasing him his whole life for being an albino.

[mbee]

21. The only way to truly hurt these jerks is in their pocketbooks. I plan

to write the head of my cable company and tell them I do not want to pay for programming such as Fox News and that if they don't improve the programming I will switch to another company. If these so-called news programs keep refusing to report the real news I challenge all of us who seek the truth to cancel our cable subscriptions. Think about it, we are paying to hear these lies - it's crazy! They will do an instance about face when they find out they are going to be going out of business!

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

23. That picture looks as if he could eat a cob of corn through a chain-link

fence.

WHAT AN ASSHOLE! Puhleez, does anyone have a Tivo of this to refute his denial?

Even a verifiable transcript to pass on to other media outlets.

[jackstraw45]

25. I'd like one too....

I emailed mediamatters.org last night.

Hopefully we'll get a transcript soon.

[realFedUp]

24. I'm sure some would be saying the same of Cheney

or Bush.

16,000 Iraqis dead to get one man.

[AngryWhiteLiberal]

26. What do you expect from a genetically-challenged, white-trash, Repuke shit

The more this kind of stuff happens on Fox, the greater they approach the extremes and in turn they reduce their possible influence on non-Repuke independent types...so, keep the Repuke vitriol and venom coming Faux!

JB

[jackstraw45]

27. Any transcript around yet?

:kick:

[Deja Q]

28. What a savage little prick he is... Amazing how we're all human...

Of course, some DUers say the same of Bush.
