Jon Stewart Calls Fox’s Bolling ‘The Dumb Guy’ – And Bolling Strikes Back

Last night, Jon Stewart predictably took some pokes at Fox News during his interview with Fox’s Dana Perino. Apparently, that got under the very thin skin of Perino’s The Five co-host, Eric Bolling.

It started with a discussion about dogs. Stewart said, “Doesn’t the other guy on The Five have a dog who’s, like, named - like who’s the dumb guy? Who’s the dumb guy?

It turned out Stewart meant Bolling, who has a dog named Freedom. “After the Freedom Towers,” Perino said. “So watch the jokes.”

“No, no I would never insult a dog named for something. My dog’s named Holocaust,” Stewart joked. “You want to have a dog tragedy-off, I think I got that covered.”

Stewart got in a few more digs at Fox News. Then, at the end of the interview, Stewart told Perino, “Tell the dumb guy I say hi.”

Today, Bolling returned fire:

BOLLING: The guy is so obsessed with hating Fox News that he spent a lot of the time taking shots at us, especially me. Apparently, I’m living rent-free inside Stewart’s head. Whatever Jonny Boy. Your time would have been better spent talking to Dana about her book. …Had you done your homework, you might have learned something, Dummy.

Afterward, cohost Greg Gutfeld said, “You showed him, Eric.”

This is not the first time Bolling and Stewart have exchanged words. It’s not the first time Bolling has called Stewart  “Dummy” or  “Jonny Boy,” either.

Watch the two segments below.

Women, Blacks, Latinos, Gays, Jews and Christians want to be treated and portrayed fairly in movies, what makes you believe it is open season on Native Americans?

Wow, Bolling and Gutfield are such “tough guys.”

Anita Hall – I wonder if Comedy Central is having Trevor Noah watch Fox “News” in preparation for him taking over the Daily Show?

@ truman: Man, you’re thinking WAAAAY too literally. “Dumb Guy” doesn’t have to be gender-specific.

In fairness, though, I suppose if Jon had intended it to mean any of the FoxNoise females, he would’ve probably said “Dumb Blonde.”

“The Dumb Guy” moniker doesn’t narrow the field much. Bonehead Bolling, Kneel Craputo, KKKlannity, Brain Kilmeade and Daddy Steve Douchebag.

Sure gonna miss Jon ~ don’t ever remember him being wrong on his comments re Fox & he does it in such a brilliant way. Doubt that anyone can fill his shoes & those folks @ Fox won’t have anyone to call them out anymore.

Jon remembered Greg Gutshot then asked about the “dumb guy” and Perino still asked him to be more specific. Bolling said he spent a lot of time bashing Fox but that’s not true either. Most of the time they were talking dogs so that make Bolling look even more foolish…not that he needed any help.

Stewart: “Who’s the dumb guy?”
Perino: “Could you be more specific?”
Translation: Both of them are dumb. Which one are you asking about?

I agree, ez – Gutfield was getting a little sarcasm in at Bolling because he chose to get back at a comedian’s “dumb guy” remark by calling the comedian “a dummy”. Oooo, burn – NOT. Even Gutfield knows Bolling’s comeback wasn’t clever at all and a fail. Bolling is a lot like BOR and Hannity – way too thin-skinned/egotistical for his own good and weak when it comes to being truly funny/witty.

To correct Bolling…what Stewart does isn’t “hating” on FOX “news”. If Bolling actually paid attention instead of automatically screaming “hater!”, HE might actually learn something from Stewart who has a keen eye for calling out the ridiculousness of our media. He can’t stand what our media outlets try to pass off as news and facts to the folks. Bolling is a part of the media problem and he knows damn well that Stewart has caught him being the “worst math teacher ever” and a biased jackass on several occasions. And it’s not just FOX “news” (which shows that Bolling doesn’t really watch “The Daily Show” much) as Stewart goes after other media outlets too (with tons of pokes taken at CNN).

Fox can't take even a small dose of what gets dished out 24/7 against others.
