I had to turn off Bill Maher.

[SCVDem]

I cannot stomach Dennis Prager's prattling!

[dewsgirl]

1. This has to be one of the worst guests I have seen on the

show. And there have been many.

[redstateblues]

2. Glad he's not getting money from me

[comradebillyboy]

3. The show got off on the wrong track with the vax skepticism

and got totally derailed by Prager hijacking the show. Bill Maher at his worst.

11. This🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝

I had to switch channels during the anti vax crap. Was shouting at the TV when Prager was on.

4. Weighing the cost-benefit of giving these people a platform and exposing their terribleness...

I think Maher does more harm than good. Every once in a while there is a "viral" moment of some RWNJ knucklehead getting a comeuppance, but more often than not he lends legitimacy to assholes who don't deserve it just by putting them on the air.

8. The last few years it seems like he mostly licks their ass because

"they're sooo brave". It's a fucking TV show. What are they, supposed to be scared? Like somebody's gonna come out from back stage with a spiked baseball bat or something?

[SCVDem]

5. I'll catch New Rules

But no Overtime!

What were you thinking Bill? You know this went wrong right away.

[Hoyt]

6. I'm enjoying seeing Prager getting laughed at to his face and treated with contempt.

[BigmanPigman]

7. I did too.

For the same reason. I was watching it live on DU and after a few minutes of that fuckface I couldn't take it any longer. I prefer to watch it posted so I can fast forward through that RW BS! I wish Bill would leave this trash in the garbage where it belongs.

[smirkymonkey]

9. I questioned why he had Prager on the show in the first place and someone told me

that it was because the controversy made the show more interesting. No, it doesn't. Not with jerks like this. I really don't get why we have to entertain the right-wing point of view to make for an "interesting" show. It's bullshit and I'm tired of it.

I find the opinions of people we agree with interesting enough. I don't need to see controversial assholes to keep my attention.

[Initech]

10. He's smoking some really bad ganja lately.

First he repeatedly attacks safe spaces and PC culture, now he's inviting rabid anti-vaxxers on the show? Time to switch weed vendors, Bill.

[ecstatic]

12. Lol! nt

[Gothmog]

13. I stopped paying attention to Maher a long time ago

Prager is a right wing nut job

[Dem4Life1102]

14. Maher did call out his BS

Too many times he sits there silently and lets them lie.

15. Daily Beast : "Maher's Show Has Gone Completely Off the Rails"

In February of 2017, Bill Maher, the “politically incorrect” satirist and stand-up comic, welcomed Milo Yiannopoulos onto his popular HBO show Real Time. Maher’s decision to provide a millions-strong cable platform to the alt-right troll prompted journalist Jeremy Scahill, another guest scheduled to appear that week, to drop out.

After The Reagan Battalion posted a video of Yiannopoulos defending hebephilia, which led to him being dropped as Trump’s opening act at CPAC, Maher attempted to spin it as his doing—despite the fact that he mollycoddled the troll on his program, and that the racist performance artist was ultimately foiled by a conservative outfit in response to the CPAC gig.

Which brings us to Friday night. The latest edition of Real Time featured the “edgy” funnyman jousting with Dennis Prager, the right-wing propagandist behind PragerU (a conservative, fact-averse YouTube-video factory posing as a university whose greatest hits include an anti-immigrant manifesto by Japanese internment-defender Michelle Malkin; a spiel about how police actually don’t discriminate against black men; and a whole lot of “War on Christmas” content), and Dr. Jay N. Gordon, one of the leaders of the anti-vaxx movement who once defended not administering the measles vaccine to his patients by calling it “a benign childhood illness.”
