John Adams Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Stern does something like this and is branded as hateful, racist, tasteless, etc Not so much anymore. Howard's been around so long that most people get it. and how many times, when a random person catches them in a misleading question and tells them to shove it right up their a$$, do they play that back? think that never happens? i'll bet it happens pretty frequently but we'll likely never know. Point? Howard Stern is not running a polling agency. Or trying to bore people. He's running a comedy show. Of course he's playing the worst clips.

Wow, you're so smart. I totally did not think of that. I bet that only took the really really black ones, you know, the ones that are the minorities who didn't vote any way or have a chance to pay attention to the mass media to tell them what to think!? They're the victims here. Seriously, calm down, bro. It's comedy. Anyone who really think this represents Obama supporters is a fool. There could just as easily be the toothless rednecks of Georgia polled by Stern about something similar. In fact, he has done such similar things. It is for comedy. wow. my point is that these clips are in no way representative or indicative of what the thread title suggests. therefore, his manipulative and exploitative interviews should not be used to advance this assertion.

Leno, yeah, I bet you love his Jay Walking bit, and his chicken picks a football team, and all the other bits he stole from Howard. Now I think many of us understand, anyone who laughs at Leno clearly doesn't get it. This is not to belittle people. It is trolling people at worst, but people who understand the show and Stern himself realize that this is just one example of how everyone has their "weaker" moments.

Buftex Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 You're forgetting about the double standard Stern does something like this and is branded as hateful, racist, tasteless, etc Now if somebody else went out and started asking white people if they thought Obama was a Muslim or a Communist or what country they thought he was from, and plays a clip with the crazy responses, that's OK because they're pointing out how unenlightened and ignorant Americans are Liberal pricks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5tqH7UrzOw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 govt lowers regs so banks can loan more and gain more profits with cdo's. economy collapses. ummm, whether you like it or not, because of this very stupid friedman/greenspan policy, we became victims when the market lost half its value. !@#$tard Funny.

Buftex Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) Bill Mahr, wow he's so edgy, and deep. His comedy bits reports are thought provoking. Not sure what your point is... other than you don't like Maher... I know you are a Stern fan-boy... just pointing out, people here (right wingers) always love to point out some double-standard that makes their side of the aisle look bad (see the post I was responding to)...and pretend that that they (media or whoever) just gloss over their own sides scars, lumps and bumps. It just isn't true...but when you live in a bubble, you wouldn't know it. Not so much anymore. Howard's been around so long that most people get it. So, you wanna tell Dave In Elma, or should we wait for him to figure it out! Edited September 23, 2012 by Buftex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just isn't true...but when you live in a bubble, you wouldn't know it. Ya got it all backwards, I like Maher. I was mocking the double standard. When guys like Colbert and John Stewart do it, it's ok to laugh. Especially, when they're showing someone else doing the actual work and creating the content. Maher is the black sheep of that little family. If Limbaugh or Hannity does it they're racist, if Beck does it he is encouraging self education or some crap to make people feel like their are making their own choice. If NPR does it then it is a human interest piece on the lack of concern for the inner city issues like Harlem, where to many of these people all that matters is the ability to feed their children and where they will be staying next month. When Stern does it, well... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJ2OsoSIAqw&feature=relmfu There are a bunch, Htiler, Casey Anthony, Mel Gibson, David Berkowitz, etc vs. Howard. It is amazing. Gibson was more liked then Howard, Berkowitz, Casey Anthony...etc. Edited September 23, 2012 by jboyst62 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
