Watters needs short tempered people to make his ambushes work. If he can’t get someone properly goaded/intimidated, he can’t get the soundbites he needs, and he just looks impotent.

Which is what makes it sadder that so many people are able to see through his tactics and leave him with increasingly desperate attempts to knock them out of context.

Is Bildo’s fat ass glued to his chair? Why doesn’t he get out of the Fux Noise cocoon and actually try to do a news interview instead of sending that twerp Watters?

Exactly, doors. The tough-talking, bully-boy BOR prefers to send others to do his dirty work – even when the target of the ambush is right there in NYC with him. Eh, it just shows us that BOR is too much of a coward to venture outside settings that he can control. That’s why BOR won’t go on with Moyer’s show, do an unedited interview with Media Matter’s Brock, etc.

Yeah, it would have been great if someone had mentioned the connection between FOX, a Saudi Prince’s ownership and Rotana. Of course, if they had, it would have been edited out as that is an uncomfortable truth that the hypocrites at FOX “news” prefer to turn a blind eye towards.

In addition to BOR saying that Gore is a hypocrite for selling to a company that gets money from the oil (an industry that Gore has criticized), BOR says that it’s wrong for Gore to have done business with Al Jazeera network because of things they have done and aired. Well, if that’s to be part of the criteria, in addition to FOX’s Rotana/Saudi connections, FOX “news” also did business with a guy who said (among many despicable things) that he hated some of the 9/11 families and that he wanted them to shut up. BOR embraced this guy by having him on “The Factor” as a weekly guest and even cut a business deal to go on tour with him which fattened BOR’s bank account.

So here we have it – everyone is supposed to see Gore as a hypocrite because he made himself richer via the oil industry that he has often criticized. Never mind the fact that, in order to further enrich himself, BOR has no problem doing the same sort of thing by pimping himself/his books on the “liberal” media outlets that he constantly criticizes. Add this together with the FOX “news” ties to Rotana/the Saudis and the likes of Bek, BOR is a hypocrite too. So until BOR stops taking a check from Saudi/Rotana connected FOX “news”, stops going into business with hatemongering conspiracy nuts and stops selling himself via the “liberal” media industry, his attacks on Gore for being a hypocrite ring hollow.

mlp, I was about to make the same point before I read your comment.

Bill must have top-notch security around him to protect his egotistical, arrogant ass. Why can’t the coward go face to face himself with his intended victims and have to instead send someone else to do his dirty work? Think Bill would be slightly upset and act like a wounded puppy dog if he or Watters received the same treatment? A few years ago Bill Moyers was ambushed by someone on Bill’s staff and Moyers turned the tables on him by saying tell your boss O’Reilly that he is very welcomed to come on my program for the entire hour, live and debate any issue he chooses. Bill never accepted. Bullies don’t like getting hit back. Bill never aired that altercation which you know damn well that all of these are heavily edited and makes you wonder how many we didn’t see or what’s left on the cutting room floor on those that they do.

Progressive blogs should be sending out their own goons to stalk O’Reilly for answers to ‘Gotcha!!’ questions.

wonder how long this took to edit

It was really a pretty uneventful ambush.

I’ll bet it was — ‘cause, as a former VPOTUS, doesn’t Mr. Gore get lifetime Secret Service protection? Watters may act big and bad behind his microphone, but I don’t think he’s bulletproof . . .

.

The saddest part of this display by Jesse Watters was that he cut off the guy who was presenting legitimate arguments against Watters’ behavior and preconceptions. We have no way of knowing if the guy had an answer to Watters’ desperate gotcha of “But you said you didn’t watch!” because Watters froze the camera as the guy was about to respond. One has to wonder what the guy said to him that made Watters too afraid to air it. Or perhaps was it the earlier quote, taken out of order where he said what is quoted above here? Hard to know given how Watters chops up these segments to fit his case…

All in the name of "looking out for you," of course.

Swipe the floor with Intern Jesse.

Intern Jesse: What do you think of Al Gore selling Current TV to Al Jazeera?"

The Public: “What do you think of News Corporation’s News International hacking scandal in the U.K.? Should Murdoch and his son be prosecuted?”

We guarantee you Intern Jesse would never air that exchange.

It’s easy striking back at these Fox “News” frauds. Throw it back at them by mentioning their numerous scandals.

NOTE TO INTERN JESSE

Genius, what would happen if Rupert Murdoch sold one of his assets to Al Jazeera, would you be running around with your wireless microphone asking people what they thought of Murdoch’s deal? Of course not.

NOTE TO MASSES

Get those camcorders out and ask the masses what they think of the Saudi Prince owning a large percentage of News Corporation. Mention Saudi Arabia’s link to terrorists organizations worldwide.
