Discussion: Fox Host: CNBC Anchor Shushed By Rand Paul 'Sounded Condescending' (VIDEO)

I hate to agree with Howie about much of anything, but in this case… DUH!

Howie Kurtz: Hack for Hire

Sorry, but a reasonable anchor should be incredulous that a supposed medical doctor thinks vaccinations should be voluntary for diseases that can put the general population, and especially children, at significant risk.

And if someone somehow objects to that, shushing them is just absurdly bizarre.

Shorter Fox Host: Up could be down so how condescending of a female to point out that it’s not to a male. Rand might get his feelings hurt.

This hack just keeps sinking lower and lower. And to think at one point he was considered the most influential media critic in America. I hope he’s not criticizing Brian Williams for making up shit, by the way.

Kurtz wants Republican presidential candidates to agree to be interviewed by him this election cycle. The best to get them to say yes is to let them know that there will be no hard questions from their friend, Howie.

I watched it when it happened. Felt bad for Kelly as she put her head down and kept apologizing while being bullied. It was a legitimate question no doubt but if she held her ground it would have made for exciting TV, and not simply an embarrassing moment for her. I wonder if her bosses where yelling into her earpiece, “apologize, apologize”!

Howie, shush… And calm down; adults are trying to hold a conversation; you’ll get your turn, eventually…

I think that Fox hired Kurtz so that Juan Williams wouldn’t be seen as the most pathetic, contorted apologist lickspittle at the network

Old Howie seems to be fitting in at FOX rather nicely.

Oh, Howie, don’t you worry your pretty little head, Ron can take care of himself.

“Did you really just say that drinking, texting and masturbating while driving should not be regulated, but left up to the discretion of the driver?”

He’s referring to Rand Paul right?

Right?

Okay, Howie. Republican lady interviewer on a Republican business network should be deferential to Republican Senator. If the Republican Senator trots out any inaccuracies, she should just keep her mouth shut and quietly resign afterwards for misleading America.

I’ll believe that when you change your family name back from “Kurtz” to your proper Yiddish name, “Putz”.

Yes, Howie, bob back and forth. Be sure to use your hands, don’t leave them on Randy’s knees. We’ll be sure to get a cushion for your knees … good whore.

I don’t remember O’Reilly ever telling someone point blank to their face to SHUT UP either.

Ever.
