Geraldo resists labeling Hasan a terrorists. Speculates it could have been a toothache that set him off. VIDEO

Here is video of Geraldo Rivera on "Fox and Friends" talking about the Ft. Hood shooting. Brian Kilmeade asked Geraldo "do you think it's time for the military to have special debriefings of Muslim army officers, anybody enlisted?" Geraldo answered "Isn't this the headline, Brian, that there are 4 or 5 million American Muslims and how scant and few and far between these horrifying incidents are?" (Video)

Did anyone else see Geraldo bemoaning the fact that he really feels bad for all the muslims in the military that haven't killed American soldiers? I was appalled at this attitude. If someone has a link to it online please share so others can see how tasteless it really is. Could you image anyone after Timothy McVeigh's act of terrorism saying "This is going to make all those white supremacist that haven't resorted to acts of violence look bad. I just hope American's understand that this isn't part of their cause."

Ann Coulter & FOX's Geraldo Rivera Debate Rush Limbaugh vs. President Obama War - 11/01/09

Here is video of Geraldo Rivera this morning on Fox and Friends where he analyzed the current military situation in Afghanistan and Pakistan. He had been talking about Hillary Clinton calling out the Pakistanis, where she said they had to know if Osama bin Laden is in their country. That's when Geraldo made a real slip, especially for someone left of center. At around the 1:55 mark, Geraldo proceeded to say this President - "Osama bin Laden" - and then he caught himself, and was terribly embarrassed. Others on the couch told him it was "okay." If a conservative had...

Recently a lot of hubbub had been made about the possibility that the peaceful tea party protests and some conservative voices would stir up emotions that could lead to violence. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was even one of those sounding that alarm. But what has gone unsaid by those same voices has been the possibility of violence against those who might take a position antithetical to that of the left. Case and point: CNN's Lou Dobbs. Dobbs, who has been the target of a smear campaign by the left-wing noise machine, told his radio audience on Oct. 26...

Here is audio of Lou Dobbs responding to Geraldo Rivera's attacks at a speech he made. Geraldo also attacked Dobbs today on "Brian & The Judge" radio show calling him "the man who's done more to slander Latinos in this country than anyone else." Lou Dobbs said Geraldo "wouldn't know a fact if it hit him in the rear." Dobbs said Geraldo spews "vile stupidity and ignorance everywhere he goes." (Video)

Here is audio of Geraldo Rivera on "Brian & The Judge" calling Lou Dobbs "the man who's done more to slander Latinos in this country than anyone else." Geraldo asked "where is the complaints about CNN and Lou Dobbs from the administration? Don't they care that President Obama would not be President but for the Latino vote? They allow a reporter, or a correspondent, or a commentator to go on the air night after night with profoundly negative stereotypical falsehoods about Latinos and particularly immigrants." (Audio)

Geraldo Rivera on Thursday lambasted Lou Dobbs for the outspoken CNN host's views concerning illegal immigration. Speaking at a luncheon sponsored by El Diario La Prensa NY, Rivera disgracefully said, "Lou Dobbs is almost single-handedly responsible for creating, for being the architect of the young-Latino-as-scapegoat for everything that ails this country." Rivera also told the audience that he had spoken to his boss, and was assured Dobbs was not coming to Fox (video embedded below the fold with partial transcript): CLICK ABOVE LINK FOR THE VIDEO "One of the aspects of our reality in the United States now is the...

Here is video of Geraldo Rivera giving a speech in which he rails against CNN's Lou Dobbs for his opposition to illegal immigration and his coverage of border issues. Rivera says Dobbs "is almost single-handedly responsible for creating, for being the architect of the young Latino as scapegoat for everything that ails this country." Geraldo also said that rumors of Dobbs being courted to come to Fox News are "absolutely untrue." Rivera says his boss confirmed that Dobbs will not be coming to Fox News. Geraldo also criticized Mitt Romney as a "turncoat" for opposing "comprehensive immigration reform," and said...

Today's installment of Rush Derangement Syndrome...Geraldo goes through everything Rush has ever said and quotes him out of context...(Video)

Here is video of Ann Coulter and Al Sharpton on "Geraldo at Large" talking about Michael Steele's comments on Obama asking David Paterson not to run in 2010. Al Sharpton said "if I had taken the position that Michael Steele took I'd be accused of playing the race card." Ann Coulter said "the Democratic Party is racist" and used as evidence the way they have treated New York Governor David Paterson. (Video)

Here is video of Ann Coulter debating Juan Williams and Geraldo Rivera whether GOP Rep. Joe Wilson should apologize a second time for his "You Lie" Outburst, this time from the floor of the House. Juan Williams thinks he should have to, and believes Joe Wilson has helped Obama to galvanize support among Democrats in Congress. Ann Coulter does not think he should apologize anymore, and when Geraldo said he should, Coulter responded: "Republicans should do the opposite of what you tell them to do. Joe Wilson, Geraldo is not your friend." . . . (VIDEO)

Here is video of Ann Coulter ripping Gerlado Rivera last night for suggesting GOP Rep. Joe Wilson's "You Lie" outburst during President Obama's Health Care Speech had "racialist undertone." Coulter told Geraldo, "I thought I was on Geraldo. I did not know I was suddenly blasted into MSNBC where any opposition to Obama has to be racist." . . . (VIDEO)

Geraldo claims the "Death Panel stuff" is "whacky martian stuff" but then admits she but Obama and the Dems on the defensive.

A "classic" video of Geraldo interviewing Manson.

Here is video from last night where Geraldo Rivera said his "head was going to explode" when conservative Ann Coulter explained that Senior Citizens are so upset about ObamaCare legislation because it has provisions that "manifestly encourage assisted suicide in the elderly." She cited section "1255" of the bill as the section that does so. The two had started a discussion of protests at Town Hall Meetings and Geraldo had asked how Ann would feel if groups like ACORN and others were packing the meetings. Ann pointed out that most of those attending are locals and elderly people who are...

This morning Geraldo Rivera had a small tantrum on the Fox Morning Show as he tried to defend Obamacare to the rest of the guests who weren't having any of it. I was surprised and disappointed to hear Rivera say that he believes in Obamacare and that opposition to it in town hall meetings is being organized by Obama-hating professional right-wing goons. He then raised eyebrows by offering that Obamacare is disintegrating before the Dems' eyes (despite the Libs' bussing-in violent union thugs, whom Obama describes as "grass roots supporters" of Obama).

Geraldo is on his show as we write ... and he has plastered Rush Limbaugh in a "very disgusting" image, of his eyes squinted, fat face bulging, and is portraying Rush in a very negative light. This disgusting display of "fair and balanced" news reporting has just made up my mind ... "no more Geraldo for me", ever again ... even if he is on my favorite show, Bill O'Reilly. I will NEVER WATCH HIM AGAIN ! Geraldo just "USED ANN COULTER", and turned her words around, as if she was bragging about Sonia Sotomayor, which she DID NO SUCH...

(CNSNews.com) – Journalist and TV personality Geraldo Rivera summed up the optimism of pro-immigrant activists and mostly Democrat politicians at the 13th annual U.S.-Mexico Congressional Border Issues Conference by saying he is confident President Barack Obama will keep his campaign promise to sign “comprehensive immigration reform” into law. “Barack Obama is the first Hispanic president the same way Bill Clinton was the first black” president, Rivera said at the conference, which took place Thursday at the U.S. Capitol. Rivera also said the Hispanic community should “give the president some slack” in keeping that promise on immigration reform, given the pressing...

Geraldo Rivera was issued a trespass warning on Saturday Fox News anchor Geraldo Rivera was issued a trespass warning after a contentious interview with the father of a missing Putnam County girl. As the search for 5-year-old Haleigh Cummings entered its 13th day, the county was abuzz about the contentious interview with her father Saturday night with Rivera. Cummings got upset when Rivera said he'd been told by members of Haleigh's mother's family that Cummings hit the child and has said he is 75 percent sure he knows who has her.

I am about to throw a brick on my 50" TV screen watching Geraldo on FOX report on the Youth Ball. Would someone please do our nation a favor and stuff a large sack of raw potatoes into his mouth? This guy is truly a sychophantic pig

Ann Coulter, conservative author and political pundit, is scheduled to be on C-SPAN on Sunday Morning, January 11th. It is this show: 07:00 AM EST3:00  LIVE Call-InWashington Journal Program 01/11/2009C-SPAN, Washington Journal It starts at 7AM and runs three hours.Coulter is scheduled for the 9 O'clock hour.It is a call-in show and I am sure Ann would love to have some her Free Republic friends and fans call in!

The very last statement made by the male newscaster that assists Geraldo Rivera on the Geraldo at Large Show on FOXNews tonight [it ended at 10 p.m. EST] was: "The government is investigating 24 corporations who were manipulating the [stock] market in September!" I don't know anything more about this statement because only except sign-offs by guests happened after that. Wayne Rogers [Trapper John on M*A*S*H], a guest on the show, was even cut off in mid-sentence signing off.

Waching Geraldo hiding on FOX News Channel all this time to now spring forth as a clearly Obomba supporter is a bit disappointing....I enjoyed Geraldo, he was fun, once he came to FOX he seemed to have seen the light, but alas...He has shown his solid dem colors, 1st when he joined in the call to stop the Ayers stuff...that was the first flag for me.....But his fawning over Powell's endorsement, (just one black guy endorsing another black guy with no where near the experience needed to be president) that was the end for me.

Geraldo, "I'm going to be a star of youtube now!"

Is it really a hurricane, or even just a "tropical depression," unless a TV reporter in a hooded windbreaker is flopping around in the wind and rain like a landed flounder? Is it really a weather story at all unless the TV people can go outside in the storm and, while risking bodily injury, warn viewers that they shouldn't go outside in the storm and risk bodily injury? If so, Hurricane Gustav was a real storm: All of the cliches and hyper-theatrical tropes of TV hurricane coverage were at Category 5 yesterday.

New details have emerged in the case of missing Caylee Anthony - The family has now hired a 'psychic detective', Gale St. John, in hopes of finding Caylee. It's also been revealed that Casey Anthony, the mother of missing Caylee and a person of interest in her disappearance, stole gas cans from her father's garage shortly before her daughter went missing. Let's start with case facts (Scroll down for latest updates): The mother of a missing Florida toddler is a "person of interest" in a possible homicide. Casey was formerly charged with child neglect and other charges involving alleged lies...

Considerate liberals on The Huffington Post are outraged that Geraldo Rivera (and Fox News) broadcast long shots of the body of supermodel Ruslana Korshunova shortly after the nine-story fall to her death. Is Korshunova's death news? Of course — but it doesn't need to be so graphically illustrated. A sustained shot of Korshunova's face, her face pale in death, clearly visible in profile with what appears to be blood at the side of her mouth — that adds nothing to the story other than a horrific, shocking image to gawk at. HuffPo didn't embed the offending Geraldo video segment, but...

This Weekend: Geraldo and Team NEW TIME: Sat., June 28 and Sun., June 29 at 10 p.m. ET • Saturday: Geraldo 'At Large' Special Presentation: 'Iraq: Where Good News is No News'.

ON RIGHT NOW! "Including references to "Whitey". There has been a race for Clinton operatives to aquire this tape, but I believe this tape is already in the hands of a major network." This JUST aired minutes ago on "Geraldo"... Geraldo prefaced by saying that Roger Stone was the same person who first exposed Spitzer's relationship with hookers.

NEW YORK (December 12, 2001 6:15 a.m. EST) - From his position near Tora Bora, Afghanistan, Fox News Channel correspondent Geraldo Rivera seemed more agitated by a question about carrying a gun than by the mortar rounds that just exploded nearby. "I refuse to address that issue," said Rivera, speaking into a satellite phone. "It's been blown way out of proportion. It makes me sound like a tabloid talk show host goes to war. It's so unfair." Yet Rivera's decision to bring a gun into a war zone where eight journalists have been killed has raised questions about whether ...

We’ve reached the point of diminishing returns with this tool, have we not? These segments are paint-by-numbers by now: Nativists, talk radio, “people who look like me,” climate of fear, those poor folk who haven’t done anything wrong except violate U.S. immigration law repeatedly, etc etc. I’m giving you this just because it’s always noteworthy when Spitty expresses his disgust towards a border enforcer in physical terms. Dobbs gets off easy, with nothing but the foregone handshake. Others … aren’t so lucky. Savor the irony at the very end as Hasselbeck quotes him worrying about people wanting to assault him....

Geraldo Rivera and Juan Hernandez, two of the most flagrant supporters of illegal immigration and amnesty in the media, have both announced their support for McCain. The National Council of La Raza (NCLR) also known as the Council of the (Hispanic) Race has announced their positive feelings for McCain while labeling any group or personality opposed to amnesty as an ally of the KKK. Even Ruben Navarrette, a CNN columnist who constantly rants in support of illegal immigration, while slinging mud at anyone who stands up for immigration enforcement, loves John McCain. Every illegal immigration supporter is signalling they want...

This morning on Fox and Friends, Geraldo Rivera said the the "Decency" wing of the Republican Party endorsed McCain. He also went on to say that he had a job for Mitt Romney. He said Mitt would make a good "Baseball Commissioner." He went on to say because he never took a stand on the steroid use this would qualify him for that job. This is a slap in the face to Mitt and the conservative movement.

For those who remember when Geraldo Rivera did actual investigative journalism, his excellent work would often get marred by his shameless self-promotion. On more than one occasion, he would interject in his reports that his life was actually in danger while investigating mostly mundane controversies. Hillary Clinton seems to have discovered her inner Geraldo in claiming that she handled all of the dangerous diplomatic missions in the Clinton administration: Ever since Barack Obama suggested Hillary Clinton's eight years as first lady were a glorified tea party a few days back, she's looked for an opening to strike back. On Saturday...

Who do you think is right? From 11:30 pm lastnight the media has been reporting the capture of Tora Bora while Geraldo has been stating that the fighters in the area clame to have just started doing work on figureing out what area to target. He has been wrong in the past but considering that he is on the frontlines while the rest of the media is reporting at their desks in NYC and D.C. who are we to believe?

One cardinal rule of journalism warns that reporters themselves must not become the focus of the story. Apparently nobody told Fox News Channel's new star Geraldo Rivera, who has lately turned the hottest cable news network's Afghan battlefield coverage into something resembling "Geraldo Goes to War." Suddenly, whatever U.S. troops may be doing at any given moment seems secondary to Mr. Rivera's latest adventure, with one report after another documenting his predicament du jour. Just days after his arrival Rivera set tongues wagging with his boast that he's packing a pistol for self defense - the only memorable item ...

More than a week after Geraldo Rivera said he'd spit on Michelle Malkin if he ever saw her, the controversial Fox News anchor issued an apology on last night's "O'Reilly Factor.""I just, you're so filled with emotion," Rivera said referring to the incident. "Someone calls you a liar and a fool, you want to strike back at them. It was an unguarded moment.""I totally apologize, that's not me, I don't spit. I'm not a spitter," he said.Transcript and video below the fold. Hat tip: Allahpundit. Here's the transcript: BILL O'REILLY: Now, Michelle Malkin and you got into a little bit...

Saturday night, Geraldo had his hands full as anarchists and 9/11 truthers attempted to disrupt the airing of Geraldo at Large

A group of 9/11 conspiracy theorist launched a live TV onslaught during Geraldo Rivera's Saturday night program.

Did anyone happen to see the Live Shots of Geraldo this evening? There were enough 911 Truthers positioning signs onto screen very strategically! Geraldo lost his cool a few times, and, his outdoor guests were distracted, too. There must be a massive demonstration given the anniversary Tuesday. Is there a lot of security down there... anybody got any good NYC Police Scanner Links ???

The Boston Globe has a fawning Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous-ish profile of Fox News Channel’s Geraldo Rivera. In between musing about his favorite pair of soft Uggs (”I’ve worn these in Tora Bora and Somalia,” he says, admiring the suede slip-ons with the sheepskin lining. “They’re so comfortable. I love them.”), his “36-foot Hinckley powerboat,” and his massive estates (including “Seagate, the spectacular, 10-bedroom estate he bought several years ago with his fourth wife” and another “Kennedy-esque compound” with his current wife), he spews this: Rivera, who as a fledgling lawyer in the ’70s counseled the Puerto Rican...

Geraldo now on Laura's show. Elvira might come up?

Well, we wouldn’t want to make Geraldo Rivera cry. But the fact is, he didn’t really address the situation. He once again smeared Michelle by bringing up militias, the KKK and neo-Nazis, to whom Michelle has no links and has never had any links (to whom Geraldo has attempted to link Michelle before), rather than just answer the question of whether deportable criminal aliens ought to be deported. And he brought up In Defense of Internment, mischaracterized it as “extolling” Roosevelt’s internment, rather than answer the question at hand. That’s called changing the subject. And he said he “cringes” nearly...

Anyone see Gearldo spewing this morning against Michelle Malkin and the "War on Immigration"? He almost had a fit live over what he sees as her hate speech. Essentially said ANYONE with this kind of viewpoint is pushing the agenda of Neo-Nazis and the KKK. What utter crap. I don't ever watch or listen to him - hate when he jumps into my field of view.

Rivera Thursday evening (June 14, 2007) on the O’Reilley Factor. You were very good about staying on message. However, you missed two killer openings GR gave you. When he was really getting into his diatribe he said, “… This is about the huge Hispanic presence amongst the illegal aliens and within that community the huge Mexican presence. It is about the exceptionalism of the Mexican presence here. And what she is...

Could a hole in the ground be the clue to solving a 40-year-old bank robbery? Some people in Central Utah believe it is. It looks like the hole is a tunnel, used by the robbers to get inside the bank. It happened, in the 1960s, in the Central Utah town of Monroe. It's been a long time since the robbery, so there are a lot of stories, rumors and legends around town, so it is hard to separate fact from fiction. What is certain is that the robbery was never solved, and now this discovery may finally answer at least...
