"Real Time" host Bill Maher blasted the media Friday night, claiming they offer various justifications for looting and rioting amid the civil unrest that has taken place in cities across the country.
During the show's panel segment, Maher began with a warning about the "craziness out there," pointing to the controversial book "In Defense of Looting" that was given a spotlight by NPR and "a lot of articles in the press" echoing a similar sentiment.
Maher explained that in "binary times," the "fringe" will always be associated with one party or the other, later insisting that this time around, Democrat Joe Biden will have to wear looting "on his back into the election" because it is being done by the left.

I hate Maher. But he is smarter than the average leftist.
No brainer response to lunacy.
Which makes it even sadder that he can be smart and ignorant at the same time.
Maybe he will have a revelation on his deathbed
mahers career is punctuated by periods of lucidity and courageous candor, followed by long stretches of being a complete moron.
He better be careful. He could get thrown under the bus. Straying off the leftist playbook. Independent thinking not allowed.
Don't count on it.
Maher's like a fish that gets off the hook only to jump back on again... Every time.
"It may be a sideshow unless it's your business that got wiped out," Maher shot back. "I mean, if it's your business, then it's not a sideshow."
Its not a slide show when you are chased down the street by an angry mob.
Its not a slide show when you are beaten with a two-by-four while trying to defend your wife.
Its not a slide show when you are shot in the back while trying to defend a stranger.
This election will probably come down to who is defending the right of all people to live peacefully and be secure in their right to their property.
That isnt Biden or the Democrat Party both of which have chosen to be a side show in the governing of this country.
Do not care whether or not Maher is down with anything. Like the rest of us, he has only one vote.
I don’t think Maher understands he isn’t the voice of the left anymore - the looters and rioters, and the politicians who shield them, are. As you say, he has only one vote (and 0 influence with the Bolsheviks).
I will hope that Maher has his “revelation” before Nov 3d and spreads it on his show to “vote for President Trump and a Republican controlled Congress.”
Partisan Media Shills update.
And Charlottesville? That was a peaceful protest with the exception of ONE person driving a car into a crowd - - less than $20,000 damage and lasting a few hours. By liberal definition is was 'peaceful' - one person caused a death - the others did NOTHING except march.
The original Charlottesville protest was against mob's tearing statues down without due process. Vile KKK thugs jumped in to take focus away from a good cause and to shine the light on themselves. Creep - but 'peaceful'...
That was the first conservative 'protest' I've ever seen with organization, buses, props and the usual left-wing trappings. IMHO Charlottesville was organized by leftists... (but that's a different story...
