I received a response to my email to John Gibson..FAUX NEWS!!!!

[in_cog_ni_to]

He says "I" am sick to twist his words...he never said he hope Clinton would die. :eyes: here's his email. :7


absolutely did NOT say i hope clinton dies... just the opposite. said he was lucky to have caught it now, the surgery will have him back at 100% and he's good for another thirty years. you are sick to try to twist my words.

1. Got his 'goat' didn't ya.

:yourock: :pals:

4. My email wasn't very nice. I'm surprised he responded.

Faux News is PATHETIC and YOU are a parasite! To hope someone dies is about as sick as one can get. I heard what you said about Bill Clinton. You and your piece of crap network have reached the bottom of the barrel when you wish death on someone. We're spreading your little statement....expect some more backlash. Sooner or later people are going to get sick of your evil ways. Go to hell Gibson.

6. I am very careful now when I send e-mails

because many times they DO write back. as usualy there are two sides to every story and so I am careful to write nice, with good arguments and just express my opinion rather than cuss them out.

One funny story about is about Bob Dole. When he was in the Senate he received as rotten letter with losts of swearing. He sent it back to the guyt with a not "Look what some asshole sent me and signed your name".

10. I NEVER watch Faux News....ever.

I read what he said here on DU. I don't give a shit if he's offended by swear words. He deserved it. I gave up trying to write NICE emails to Faux News. They don't care what I have to say and I don't watch them. Simple. My NASTY email got a response though. ;)

2. Gibson should still apologize for that classless remark

that he made. He calls himself a journalist?

[alcuno]

3. He played that "For those of you ..." game, attributing it to others.

Gibson is a real sick pup. I saw it on his show.

[nostamj]

5. "some people say"

it's too bad that a bypass is survivable these days.

and somepeople say that john gibson is a leaky colostomy bag... who am I to argue?

[newsguyatl]

7. so DID he say it or NOT?

you say yes, he says no.

certainly he wouldn't deny it if were indeed on tape?


and i agree with another poster in this thread, you usually get a more serious look when you're half-way reasonable, with cleaner language in your emails. overall, better for our cause.

but i know sometimes you just get so angry you can't help it.

11. It was an implication. I would swear he said, "For those of you hoping

that his surgery doesn't go well, these procedures generally are successful." It was a sick comment.

[in_cog_ni_to]

12. He said

and this is paraphrased..."To all the people who hate Clinton, the bad news is, this surgery is usually successful."

[newsguyatl]

13. OMG, are you serious?!?!

can someone get that tape circulated online?

that's outrageous!!

send this info to brock at mediamatters.org please.

[in_cog_ni_to]

17. Yes, I'm serious.

I don't know if Faux News keeps transcripts available or not. Someone on DU may have it on TIVO? :shrug: I'll go search for a transcript. He's received so many emails from us, it's probably been changed or removed, but I'll check. :hi:

8. was this the guy who cheered hurricane on cuba?

i recall story about faux newsman (?) who giggled when reporting last year's hurricane was threatening cuba.....mygod. sounds just like gibson. i'd love to get my hands on ssome of these guys :)

[Kurt Remarque]

9. sounds like he consulted o'reilly before he responded

[melv]

14. he replied to me too

He wrote:

give me a break. i think clinton is lucky to have caught this early, and his prospects for a long and healthy life are extremely good at the moment and i wish him well. don't twist my words.

15. If he made that sarcastic, remark he doesn't deserve a break

I hope you gave him heck! I haven't been around the house today much and missed out on earlier threads. I hope he was deluged with mail because he's nothing but a shihead and a snot.

16. Gibson said something is wrong with my ears!

I wrote:

To: Gibson, John "Talent"
Subject: On the air with John Gibson


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

This is an immoral and purely ulgy thing to say. I hope you lose your job over this. (I would never wish worse for you.)

He responded:

gee... i was making fun of people who dislike him that much. i don't. i recognize he was lucky to catch the thing this early, he will fully recover and i wish him well. why are your ears so tuned to the worst possible interpretation?
