John Gibson's Radio Producer: "John Edwards whored his wife's cancer as a fundraising gimmick"
Via Media Matters:
On the August 3 edition of Fox News host John Gibson's nationally syndicated radio program, the show's executive producer, who goes by the name "Angry Rich" on the program, claimed Democratic presidential candidate former Sen. John Edwards (NC) "whored his wife's cancer as a fundraising gimmick." He also went on to call him "a fraud" and "a pansy." Gibson referred to Edwards as "the Breck Girl," "Silky," and "the biggest fraud running for president." Gibson and "Angry Rich" were attacking Edwards for saying that Democratic candidates should give back campaign contributions from News Corp., the parent company of Fox News Channel, while accepting advance and expense money from HarperCollins, another News Corp. division that had published a book written by Edwards; Gibson played an audio clip of Edwards stating that money was donated to charity. They also attacked Edwards for his refusal earlier this year to participate in a debate co-sponsored by Fox News. Read more...
Do you think FOXNews sponsors want to be associated with this kind of hateful rhetoric? Maybe we should ask them...
fuckin a we should ask them.
The Murdoch Empire is one big stinkin' cesspool of yellow journalism and disinformation and everyone associated with it is an agent of provocation and distortion.
Do you REALLY think the advertisers (or their ad agencies) give a flying f*ck? Do you believe they don't know what Fox Noise is all about?
It's all about the bottom line -- sales and profit -- $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
If the is the rights religious family values. MY, what would Jesus say in their temple of hate and greed?
The Jerry Springer Generations Ship Has Arrived.
(Beam me up Scotty)
FOcksnooze, John Gibson, and all of the pinheads working there in production and on the executive, and those of you who own the station are fucked up beyond recognition.
What a mess of vipers and miscreants! You all deserve the crap you spew. A pox on all of you!!
John Gibson just whores himself.
theWalrus @ 2:
Beautifully put, Walrus.
Gibson awe to talk! Just another greazy, no good lying prick, that slicks his hair back with a pork chop! If you cant see through this duesch bag.......I dont know what to tell ya!!!
Someone has his panties in a twist.
Hurts even worse when it's a thong.
Why'd he forget about mentioning those "hateful" liberal blogs?
Where's the criticism for Newtie who asked his wife for a divorce while she lay in her hospital bed fighting cancer?
Fuck you Gibson & all the other miscreants at Faux News!
He owes a public appology, and he needs to resign, his time is up. Thank God for people like the Edwards.
The whole Faux News line up comes across as a bunch of rich kids that used to get beat up all the time at school. And now its pay back to the rest of the world! Look at Brian Kilmead. He's nothing more than a punk ass, pissed on, F#ck face that thinks because he hid behind a forward unit in Iraq that he's some kind of OIF hero!
Cant stand THAT pu$$y!!!!
This man adds a whole new dimension to the word despicable
Gibson is totaly Gay for his boss, Rupert Murdock!
Another Turd floats to the top of the bowl. We should all write to FOX and Demand they hit the FLUSH lever.
This is a standard example of FCC lowered standards.
As well as another arguement in favor of returning to a "Fairness Doctrine" in the media...............
Gibby's a joke.
If you ever watch/listen to him he goes from pretending to be half-way civil on his TV gig, to dropping 40 IQ points and engaging in locker room humor throughout his radio gig on any given day. The bigotry is much less veiled on the radio side. He plays straw man with Angry Rich all day long.
Edwards is a fraud? What is Guilliani? He's still parading the streets of America shamefully exploiting the memories of the 9/11 tragedies. What about Fox "News"? If not for Lord Vador and his sidekick Bush, it would be the biggest fraud perpentrated on the American people since who knows when.
Hate Fox. This is not a defense of fox.
I just noticed the screen shot looks like the one a few posts down. Are the Chyron techs trying to show of John Gibson's cleavage? Could it just be that sometimes they go with less screen crawl than others? I probably should look up some of the other examples before I say that..... Just popped to mind.
John Gibson = Angry White Prick
Fed Up @ 19:
Fortunately my Radio dial doesn't go low enough to pick up FAUX News
Dr. Acula @ 3:
Right. It's about sales and profit and if they think that their sponsorship of this assclown will cut into the bottom line, they will drop him like a hot potato.
so where can a person find an ongoing list of faux sponsors?
i don't want to have to actually watch that filth so i can find out.
i do miss jerry springer tho...i caught that slam against jerry up there--don't talk bad about my boy, he and the simpsons are the only class acts left on fox. sadly i can't watch jerry, the judges or the simpsons anymore because hey, a boycott is a boycott, right?
Good point, Dr. Acula. Edwards should have dumped his wife when she got cancer and traded her in for a younger model like Newt did.
Isn't this the "War on Christmas" guy?
Funny, I didn't know Santa's elves knew words like "whore." I guess values are on the decline at the North Pole too.
John Gibson: representing the albino werewolf community since 1992.
Note to John Gibson...before you go attacking someone by calling them "breck girl" i would suggest you look in the mirror at your skank faced dyed DEVO due plastic thing on top of your empty head. what is it with repube wingnuts, why do they always and i mean always go to the personal attacks and very seldom stick to the policy debates. must be something in their upbringing. or perhaps they are just over compensating for their own personal short comings.
isnt it interesting that the same faux news org. that brings us the culture warrior bill o'really and his war against hateful discourse in america (or is it just liberal blogs) would not see any hatefulness in this rant. and why does a dude named angry dick need to hide from his real name? so many questions, like this one...mr. gibson, how many american troops were killed by john edwards hair? and a follow up, dont you think your rage is a bit misplaced.
Gibson looks like the type to get caught in a Chris Hanson, To catch a Predator sting, doesn't he?
The War Party declared war on Edwards when he said he regretted his vote on the Iraq war. That was UNFORGIVABLE to them. Their proxies have been attacking him ever since.
Astro @ 26:
or Giuliani, or Thompson, or to be fair, Ted Kennedy.
Another Fox mouthpiece with oral foot-n-mouth desease... Has a lot of one liner snark for John Edwards does he?? Well here's one right back at cha Gibby.... Shut the fuck up helmet hair!.....JD
The big question is, why are people like John Gibson even on the air? If Americans really do watch this guy and support his gutter journalism, that might explain why our country is spiraling downward faster than a toy top.
ysbaddaden @ 10:
Gibson prefers g-strings
The Carpenter @ 8:
Exactly, so why is every news corp in the world selling out to him?
kaT @ 36:
If there's a list of the show's sponsors, I'd love to see it. I'll be happy to send out some emails. (In addition to boycotting them myself).
If we all do the same, we won't need to argue with Gibson... he'll just go away.
Elizabeth's cancer is the real thing, not a gimmick. Was Edwards supposed to hide it? Jesus!
Looks like the Righties and FoxNews are completely terrified by Edwards. Bullies usually resort to this kind of name-calling and nonsense when they are scared.
Keep doing what you are doing, John Edwards. That ugly milk-baby Gibson and the rest of those slimy cowards at Fox can see that the people obviously respond to what you have to say.
StirFry @ 22:
lets just call him a PRICK!
And is there any sane person left in this world to think Faux isn't the propaganda channel for the reich-wing?
Gibson was also one of the reich-wingers that tried to attack any leftie blogger that said something negative about Snowjob's cancer.
Robt @ 18:
this is ok but a nipple is bad right
Just to put this in perspective - this was not on Fox News... it was on Gibson's radio show. BUT... the fact that it was not on Fox itself certainly is not because it COULDN'T have been. After all, the radio show's website is apart of the Fox Noise website.
Having said that.... a visit to the John Gibson Radio Show's website at http://www.foxnews.com/radio/johngibsonradio/index.html
and, at the bottom of the page, one can find the following sponsors:
Expedia.com
Monster.com

(I can see where that last one might tend not to give a shit, though. ;) )
Have at it, folks
naschkatze @ 39:
Remember James Kilpatrick, the original Diseased White Male that Danny Ackroyd's SNL Point-Counterpoint character was based on? (OK, I'm giving away my advanced age here..."Jane, you ignorant slut!") Anyway, I remember him turning his nose up at Jerry Brown's candidacy because of his girlfriend, Brown being a bachelor. In true Victorian Prig mode, he sneers, "what will she be, The First Paramour?"... Not really tangential, if I can get my point across: I am bringing this up because Mrs. Edwards may not live that long and I really think John Edwards was trying to get the point across that were he to be elected, there might not be a First Lady and, more importantly, although you may like his politics and want to vote for him, he might be weathering a terrible personal crisis during his presidency. Whoring? Sounds like some good advice, from a good candidate.
and they booted IMUS.....this idiot, Gibson, how the hell does FOX get away with such blasphemy
Gibson is distracting the crowd from the pressing issues. Move on...Shut the cable news!
Yeah, it's all Edward's fault that his wife got cancer. He should have just shut up about it.
/sarcasm.
Dr. Acula @ 3:
I have written many of the "national" firms that advertise on Faux Noise, expressing my
hope that they will reconsider advertising on that biased/slanted and untruthful channel;
but have found that I at least get a reply when I write similiar letters to "local merchants"
who advertise on Faux News. I suggest, if/when you watch that channel, note your local
retailers/merchants who advertise, and either call or write them and express you displeasure
w/them advertising on that anything but "fair and balanced" channel.
NewsSophisticate @ 46:
Terrible comment, but it wasn't Gibson that said it. And he laid off it too from this transcript. The rest of what Gibson said was not all that offensive. None more so than what you might read on just about any blog's comments section every day regarding Edwards.
As to Angry Rich, whoever he is, yeah, he deserves some rebuke or worse
I haven't seen much on Gibson in awhile. Thought he went away. I'm depressed that he's still out there because he is an asswipe of the highest order. That idiot is just that: a frgn' idiot.
I hope Falafel Bill takes him to task over his Elizabeth Edwards cancer comments, but I know he will not because BillO rarely criticizes the far right and certainly won't do it when it comes to a fellow Fauxman.
And the neo conservative control on the media tries to tell America that it is only market forces at work for a minority of 25 %'ers that demands this sort of vile public neo con discourse.
Are they really in that much of a demand in the market place or is it the supported ideology of the wealthy as Strauss and the Walton family and alike that wants to keep the propaganda up until its influence has taken hold in either disillusionment or thought control and brainwashing of unsuspecting uneducated non thinkers. And they do it via advertising for their ideology and not so much for their product?
Is that John Gibson or "Beaker" from the Muppets?
Another nail in this "wonderful" country's coffin.
Just the screencap of Gibson makes me ill. These guys reveal more than I think they realize by their permanent facial expression. Looks like he's got a permanent case of bile overload and simply can't stand the thought of anything. Maybe if he shut the fuck up about things he doesn't know anything about he'd feel better.
I used to like watching Gibson when he was a business reporter for CNBC. But man, the hatred this guy spews out everyday...... ya just never know about some people.
a total pewk.
[Deleted. Off topic]
How in the hell is this racist, classist POS still on TV? Oh, he works for Faux News.
Would a vote for Edwards mean free medicinal marijuana?
Break out the Twinkies!
In the picture caption, it says "My Word".
Shouldn't that be "My hateful lying mouth".......................................?
Sometimes it's good to spare oneself a view of a clip from these guys. (Although the term Breck Girl drew a chuckle). So vicious, so unkind, strictly meateaters on the hoof.
What is the anti-bush, the anti-FOX? Maybe there really is a Santa Claus and innocence and delirious joy!
... coming from a guy who whored himself to Rupert Murdoch, and
pimps Third Reichian stuff like "The War on Christmas"?
Gibson has no more credibility than Leni Riefenstahl
(at least she had the decency to die.)
Oh, wait. Just noticed Gibson ripped that "MY word" directly from Steve Colbert!!
What jealous little whores they are.
Can't wait for the first WSJ headlines as soon as Murdoch gets comfy.
'FUC*ING DEMOCRATS CAUSE MARKET TO CRASH'
DowJones Drops One Cent
And his new lead editorial editor, 'Calm, Cool and Collected Everyman', with his first Op-Ed piece:
'THOSE GOD-HATING, FREEDOM-DESPISING, DEMOCRACY-FEARING US CITIZENS OF THE LIBERAL PERSUASION ARE HOLDING A BLOGGING CONVENTION TO DENIGRATE AND TEAR DOWN THE LEGACY OF OUR GREATEST-EVER U.S. PRESIDENT, GEORGE W. BUSH, BY TRYING TO NEGATE THE LAW INCARCERATING ALL MEMBERS OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY FOR LIFE, WHICH PRESIDENT BUSH ENACTED BY HIS SIGNING STATEMENT TO THE LAST BILL ENACTED DURING HIS FOURTH AND FINAL 'TERM' IN 2020, WHICH BILL APPOINTED GONZALES PRESIDENT PRO-TEM, 'OR FOR SO LONG AS HE SHALL SURVIVE'.
Wonder how many hundreds of dollars Gibson spends on that ugly, frosty white
pompadour of his? What a fucking joke!
I would NEVER ask for John Gibson to get cancer but why is it that only the GOOD die young? This mans contribution to the world is ZERO!
Keep the Good work up Gibby!
Are there any conservatives that can discuss issues with facts? When a conservative pundit opens their mouth it seems to echo a Jerry Springer show.
John Gibsons hair reminds me of a skit that David letterman did of Phil Donahue. You know the one with the Mash patato comb over on Lettermans head. Looks just like Gibson!
Lowes and Home Depot pulled their sponsorship from Bill O'Reilly after public outcry just last week. So win a few lose a few...there will always be fans for O'Reilly, Gibons, Hannity, Limbaugh.
John Edwards is going to make a great President-sane people need to give him their support.
Sorry I mis spelled potato. I'm chillin' out with my boy Dan Quail! He's having a flash back!
That megacephalic albino prick has a radio show? What kind of mental defective would listen to that shit?
why am I not surprise. Fox news is already the cease pool of political garbage harpooned by the repukcleuns. I'm glad that some of our remaining decent democrats does not take them seriously anymore. Right now they are the Jerry Springer show for the politically inept. They are just good for a laugh. My question is why do we still take them seriously?
Rusty Shackleford @ 73:
They rub up against each other like earwigs for reassurance. " Megacephalic albino prick":
pitch-perfect description!
John E. recently visited an annual event in our area during which folks can receive free health care (checkups, etc.). During his visit he spoke in favor of a national health care plan.
Soon after, in our local (Republican-biased) paper, an editorial was published that accused Edwards of exploiting poverty in our area to push for his program.
Gibson's producer calling Edwards a fraud and a pansy? Oh, that is classic.
Not too long ago I was watching Gibson's show on Fox News, and he was telling his viewers how he occasionally surfs the Internet for ideas for his show. So what did he find for that day's show? Pictures of Danny Bonaduce (from "The Partridge Family") shirtless, posted on the Internet. So what does Gibson do? Invites Danny on the show to talk about (1) why he had pictures taken of his bare upper torso, and (2) why he posted them on the Internet.
Maybe Gibson was turned on by Danny's nipples. Who the hell knows.
yeah, cancer is hilarious.........my aunt recently passed away from liver cancer, and i myself am a thyroid cancer survivor.
angry rich or asshole rich?
hmmmmm.
WC@76, you said,
"Soon after, in our local (Republican-biased) paper, an editorial was published that accused Edwards of exploiting poverty in our area to push for his program."
And spent uranium is good for you stirred into orange juice! In fact bullets sprayed across a group of Iranians is an act of mercy which spares them the suffering of living in Iraq, for which they feel gratitude and relief.
Sounds just like Fox. They wouldn't know a real news story if it hit them in the face. Wait, I take it back, I was so glad to learn about the lesbians running around with pink guns. I didn't go out for a week!
Can someone please tell this goon Gibson that it's no longer 1953?
Mr. Gibson.....um......GO FUCK YOURSELF
It takes one to know one.
Geez Us H Kee Rist, you mean to say
that clapped out old bleach blond is
still raving on Faux? Thank the Gods
I haven't been cursed with hearing his
voice for 5 years. I would sooner listen
to my Doberman crack wind.
Isn't it refreshing to hear Lord Gibson
raise the quality of the Political Discourse
to such a high standard? We all just know
he is the absolute standard for truth, and
the American way. The crowd he panders
to must be real gems. As in bottom feeding
gutter snips.
If a government of the Republican Party was gassing "suspected terrorists" in this country and there was resistance to it, Gibson would be calling those people wimps and traitors just like his Nazi predecessors did.
One of the country's TEN biggest pigs in media. A true slimeball, and who gives a rat's ass what he thinks. A male model of the she-man coltier.
why is this not as big or bigger story as that old man on MSNBC. Imus. he (GIBSON) literly called a woman a Prostitute.
and bill o is whining about dkos????
He's got some nerve calling anybody a pansy when, from the above photo, it looks like he's had a lot of practice giving blowjobs.
The repugs just stink...
via Buzzflash
Josh Gibson is a POS. Obviously.
And gibson is a man? Annman is manlier.
Who's the ho here, Gibson?
Not to sound shallow, but if you showed a woman a picture of Edwards and then a picture of Gibson and
ask them who they would rather fuck, I'm pretty sure Albino Johnny isn't getting that many votes.
Does anyone have a list of actual sponsors of Gibson's show? I know there are lists of fox news sponsors out there, but I think if we directed letters to sponsors of this particular segment it might be more productive.
where's the list of fox advertisers with phones/email? it would be nice to get more sponsors to leave fox
BMW endorse and support John Gibson and his Producer.
StirFry @ 22:
I believe you meant: Angry Scum Sucking White Ignorant Prick (or ASSWIP, for short)
But really, we shouldn't call people names...no matter how much they deserve them.
I wonder who whored him into saying such absurd statement?
What an obscene person.............People like this is what gives AMERICA a bad name....
I think John Gibson has a crush on Edwards.
All that pretend anger from Gibson.
Yes we should ask them and No they don't want to be associated with this crap!
Where is the list of advertisers (national, regional, local and cable) and the contact info? That's all we really need, right? We can take care of the rest!
I could use a list you guys...Is there a database or list somewhere? If not, why not start one!
Sha_Rules @ 101:
Who doesn't have a crush on Edwards? Man! When he speaks about universal health care and his climate change plans, I just go all gooey inside.
Another very angry and closet Gay Albino.
#102 Addendum
Why stop with Fux nOoze? How about a concerted effort to remove the money from all reich-wing, Christianista hate speech on all channels and all media. They can speak freely all they want too. But, do we have to spend money supporting there facist, racist view of the world? Nope.
I wouldn't call this a boycott, just an economic choice like the major corps do everyday with there political money!!
I wish I had the stomach to watch the facist, illegal 527 group, Fux nOoze and put together a list of advertisers...but, I'll start puking for days on end!
Go to it. That's the sort of talk that turns everybody off except the ultra-rabid Neocon who is already lost to humanity.
jeanruss @ 71:
From your lips to God's ears, Jean.
John Edwards is the only candidate of either party who gives a damn about the middle class and the poor. The rethugs are scared shitless of him. Thats why they try to marginalize him.
AINT GONNA WORK THIS TIME, RETHUG PIGS!!!
Are the folks in the bible belt able to see where their true economic interests lie??
Fox why don't you just fuck off.....
Could someone find out if he ever said anything about the Sen. Vitter prostitution affair?( just to compound his hypocrasy).
Um, I hear these nicknames all the time at the HuffPost, I wonder if he's posting as a troll.
Anyone who would even dare hint that someone would use the emanate death of a spouse and the mother of someone's children as a political tactic is sick in the head. There really is no treatment for that.
How do people like John Gibson sleep at night? I guess maybe they don't. They walk the earth preying on good people. How can anyone accuse John Edwards of using his wife's illness to raise money for his campaign? I am sure that Edwards wishes every day that he could see Elizabeth disease free. Does the Fox Network not have any code of decency or morality which their commentators must follow? Someone needs to put people like Gibson back in Pandora's box, lock the box up, and drop it in the ocean. Gibson becomes uglier every time he spews out evil thoughts. I know that this is hard to believe, he will look even worse when the pox start erupting. Remember the Republicans don't want any populist to win. The American people must be controlled so that they will be too tired and overwhelmed by working for peanuts to oppose their Repug masters.
who is that guy? i see him online often but i've never heard him say anything reasonable ever.
This is the kind of shit Bush had all these nasty bastards at the white house for last week.
He sent this heard of dogs onto our local and national media to attack democratic candidates, especially those who refuse to wallow in the Rupert Murdock bucks.
This crap is getting on my nerves and I am bout to fold up my tent and tell all these people to kiss my ass.
All of this shit is out of control
When did it get so bad in Ameirca that a 'John Gibson' has his own forum to spit hate? That Fox Noise exists makes me nervous.
This mud Gibson et al are trying to sling is almost as inane as the anti-Hillary animated cartoon they have over at stophernow.com. It's like Fox and stophernow have cruised the local high schools looking for the best writing talent they could get...which happens to be the drop-outs applying for continuation school.
NewsSophisticate @ 47:
If Imus was being airred on FNC instead of MSNBC, he'd probably still have a job right now. The lowbrow Fox crowd would have either been in stitches over the comment or it wouldn't have even registered with them. You can't regularly and contently watch Fox and Friends, Gibson, Cavuto, O'Reilly, or Hannity and be offended by a comment like that. It just isn't possible.
