Are you endorsing the mainstream media hacks as being “journalists”? If so, I disagree.
You seem to be acting like the liberal shills who call themselves “journalists” are legitimate truth-seekers and truth-tellers. If so, I have to ask, how do you come to that conclusion?
Most “journalists” are presstitutes. It’s just a matter of who has the classier pimp.
I have no problem with the heckling, but I don’t think anyone associated with Howard Stern should be calling anyone else a “pervert.”
Weiner is a lib, and journoz are libs.
Does anyone realize that for alllll his lying, there would have been ZERO hecklers at this resignation, if not for a HOWARD STERN staffer?
People are missing the point, here.
The important job of putting the fire to the feet of politicians and bureaucrats is now being handed to.... :
1. Former gift shop clerks (Drudge)
2. Kids with camcorders (the ACORN-gate kids)
3. Fomer badboys (Breitbart)
4. Howard Stern comedian writers
5. Rush
Abe Lincoln said an energetic press provides a more powerful defense of freedom than the whole military, see?
See what’s happening? The Legacy Media became cartelized, and so now this is happening.
Umm...I’m happy for it, too.
Stern has upset the whacko nutjob liberal applecart, interfered with the DC Democrat Elite, and permanently destroyed any hope Weiner ever had of running again.
For that horrible crime, Stern must now be destroyed, and declared an unperson, an enemy of the Obamunist State, no matter WHAt he may have said in the past about Bush that they cheered.
Asking Weiner if he’ll “still maintain his sleek physique and clean shaven chest” is an appropriate question for a flashing pervert like Weiner...
That is unfortunately the lesson.
I don't care whether I'm deputized with the meaningless title of "journalist" or not.
well it sounds like Pauly Walnuts hasn’t retired yet
Would those privileges include NOT being threatened with bodily harm?
So non “official” people asking questions expect to be threatened?
Sounds like the situation played itself out as YOU would like. He some how got in, and was then removed from the event. What else would you like? Baton to the kneecaps once they are outside?
I agree with you. If we're going to complain about the unprofessionalism of the press I don't know how this guy can be defended.
Stern/Weiner, Stern/Weiner, Stern/Weiner....OK, so which IS the biggest SMACK-OFF??!!
Don’t you believe in a free press?
There shouldn’t be a litmus test for being in the press.
Never ending left wing hate filled rhetoric.
After Bronk interrupted Weiner's speech with a barrage of questions — "Will you maintain your hot physique and smooth sexy chest?" — he was escorted out by police, who, Bronk revealed, actually laughed while hauling him out because they were huge fans of the Stern show.
>>>Don’t you believe in a free press?
I certainly do. And if one is working as a journalist, they should be well aware of the process of obtaining proper credentials to be recognized as a working journalist, and also how to behave accordingly. Stern’s minion is not a journalist, nor did he behave appropriately.
How does a “journalist” behave accordingly?
By making things up about GOP Presidents?
By not reporting mistakes/lies/crimes by Democrats?
Seriously, what world are you living in? How can anyone think that the “press” is some sort of bastion of professionalism?
US Congressman Weiner Tweeted his junk all over the internet, had sexy chats, lied about it, was finally busted, yet a guy from Howard Stern can’t point out the absurdity of ‘professionalism’ in a press conference featuring this pervert?
If you can’t discern what is and isn’t proper professional behavior for a working journalist at a press conference, and that Stern’s minion does not comport with that it’s a lost cause to even attempt to try to explain it to you in a means you’d be capable of comprehending.
>>>Seriously, what world are you living in? How can anyone think that the “press” is some sort of bastion of professionalism?
For the most part, the press, while biased, does not like their club invaded by pretenders like Stern and his minions. And the world I live in is called reality. It’s a nice place. You might consider joining us here.
