Mike Malloy just walked off on Faux

[Renew Deal]

The two talking heads kept interrupting him and he walked off.

[stepnw1f]

1. Yeah...but he burnt them!

[jfxgillis]

16. FUNNIEST fucking thing I ever saw

Paraphrasing:

Kaisch: We learned in politics that you don't attack someone's character (!!!!!!!! Clinton-Impeaching GOP Congressman!) you don't call them a liar (are you KIDDING me?!?) and a criminal (I swear to GOD that's how the exchange started).

Crosstalk

Malloy: Sure you do, if it's true they're liars ...

More yelling.

Hugh Hewitt: (Psychotically obssessed with Clinton's penis) (chortling away).

Malloy: Bye.

[hlthe2b]

2. What were they talking about? How did he "burn them?"

[Renew Deal]

5. Mike having the words Bush crime family on his website.

They kept interupting him.

[Terwilliger]

3. he walked off? I didn't see that

[Renew Deal]

4. He got up and just walked off.

He stood up and took off his mike on camera.

[Terwilliger]

14. hmm...I didn't see any of that

maybe they edited that part for people on the west coast

[alittlelark]

20. I'm on the W coast and saw it

the moderator was also making fun of him for not being able to get a radio show, that people would only listen to him on the internet.

[Terwilliger]

30. was his mike cut-off and then he got up?

I don't see Mike walking out for no reason

[alittlelark]

44. no, he took it off

in disgust

[Barad Simith]

59. I think his mike WAS cut

I just saw the rerun, and it looked like Malloy was talking for several seconds, without audio, before he stood and removed the mic.

[mac2]

57. Mike only on the web?

WEll...I don't listen at all to that Kasich Fox program...web, cable, etc. He's not in my livingroom. That's what a loser he is. Fox stinks.

I know Mike was on but forgot to watch it. Just as well.

[Lostnote03]

6. Total BS!!!!!!

........JK pretending Not to know about Gingrichs word list.....They wouldn't let him speak w/o having to defend a personal accusation from the tag team clones.....well that was my first visit to Faux in quite sometime, not much has changed.....

[Gloria]

7. Well, he really got PO'd when Kasich started saying he couldn't get

on a real readio station...

Now he and this guy Hewitt are critizing him and saying this is what McAuliffe has let happen...How the White House is "principled" and too gentlemanly!

Kasich is upset about the namecalling.........LOL.

Kasich also pretended that he had never heard of Gingrich's "word list" which Mike kept bringing up...................

He probably shouldn't have walked off, though. They just went off on him and smeared the Democratic party for their "vitriole."

[alittlelark]

23. I agree, he should have stayed

Courage under fire is difficult, but nessesary in this 'media war'. They were being brutal, but only because he told THE TRUTH!!!

[rooboy]

8. Kasich couldn't stand the heat...

his eyes were all red and his voice was starting to shake. Mike was just TOO sharp for them...

[Edge]

9. He walked off because...

they said that it was Mike's personal opinion that Bush lied about his military record and such. It isn't Mike's only opinion. It was the God-damn truth.

Those two smug fucking republican assholes made Mike look like the bad guy...and they got pissed when Mike called Dubya and his cabinet "The Bush Crime Family," and that pissed off the Faux guys and they were cutting down Malloy and Mike left.

Go Mike! I hope he gets onto another radio program SOON!!!

Then those two other republican pieces of shits were saying that the show he was on was all "fair and balanced" and they were ripping on Liberals like they were trash. God damn those fuckers.

I would've walked away from those republican assholes too. God damn republican trash. They're good for not a damn thing.

[disgruntled_goat]

10. i woulda walked off too

they were just shitting on him.

mad props to ya, mike!

[fearnobush]

11. Yes, I thought he made them look real bad by ending the FAUX,

lets set up the liberal and trash him tactic. No one should have to accept that kind of gang bang. Every thing he said is light compared to what the Repukes did to Clinton and Yes, John McCain.

[0007]

12. I hate FAUX News - Seldom watch it!! Can't understand why Mike appeared

[AlinPA]

80. I still don't understand why progressives or Dems show up on Fox

Let Fox vomit their crap with their own and then people can see them for what they are..

[BootinUp]

13. I bet He did the Right Thing!

I don't know why democrats give them the time of day, to be frank about it. If our party boycotted them, it would kill their ratings eventually.

[Jawja]

28. Well,

that's the last time I watch 3 minutes of Faux for the NEXT five years! :mad:

[brainshrub]

15. Does anyone know where I can see this online?

This is one of the few times I wish I owned a TV.

[stepnw1f]

19. He just Exposed Fox

Think about it....You only know that black is black when white is placed right(left) next to it. We see Right...now we see left.

[Ksec]

47. huh?

[Nomad559]

78. Does anyone know where I can see this online?

Did you see my post here ... Mike Malloy

[lefty_mcduff]

17. FauxBot host said 'we' and 'our side'

when referring to the Repukes. Fair and balanced? My ass. Though a transcript would be good evidence for Faux's lopsided tag teams on dems.

All in all - Nice to see a dem on the tube with balls.

[Bozita]

42. Yep, there's always our side ... and the wrong side

Guess where Mike fits.

[BootinUp]

18. What Show was this? Will it Replay?

[BootinUp]

22. Is it the Heartland show?

That repeats at 4AM EST. Maybe I'll set my VCR.

[nostamj]

29. yes, John Kasich "From The Heartland"

nazis. impure and simple.

[Gothic Sponge]

25. The host was a real asshole!

"Fair and balanced" LOL! Did you hear the part right before mike was cut off where the host said something like "you can't even get syndicated radio, only on the internet"

[grasswire]

21. at least he didn't holler "shut up! shut up!"

Does Mike have a web site? I hope he can get a clip of the show.

[nostamj]

26. website!

www.mikemalloy.com

[Nlighten1]

24. Anyone have this video yet?

please?

[mrfrapp]

63. From another thread

http://mywebpages.comcast.net/Nomad668/Mike.wmv

[okieinpain]

75. pretty good, but randi rhodes would have handle it in a different

way, which is why I love her soooooooo much.

[Dimsdale]

27. Right on Mike.

I didn't see the point of Mike consenting to go on Faux, but nevertheless he handled it well. I wondered whether he'd preface any answer to the Faux wingnuts' questions with a warning. Something to effect that this will not be a discussion, but just an attempt to totally discredit me and anyone of my opinions. And when that happens, I'm out of here. Would that have thrown them off balance a bit? Maybe. BTW, what are the worthless Faux whores going to do when Chimpy goes down? What will they do to justify shilling for him? Should be interesting.

[Gothic Sponge]

33. Mike said

he was only doing faux news to get some face time to find a new job. I.E America is going bye soon. It's obvious they had him on to smear liberals.

[Dimsdale]

36. Malloy had it right all along.

I've been listening to Malloy for two years. His show deals with the truth about the BFEE. Now he should be unemployed because ieamerica is done? The Faux dickheads aren't hurting for work after years of lying their asses off along with Chimpy and Co. His show stands on its own merits. He didn't have to go on Faux to market himself. He'll be back.

[Catherine Vincent]

55. What about Pacific Radio?

Can he switch his show to that station?

32. i emailed the creep the following

Mr. Kasich - the moment you hectored Mr. Malloy off your show was the moment I switched you off. When you condemned him for using that awful L word, liar, to describe Bush, who has done virtually nothing but 'not tell the truth,' certainly regarding WMDs in Iraq and his lack of service in Alabama (you can't find a bunch of people who remember you in 1973?? or relate in detail where and what you did? please. You must truly believe we're all a bunch of idiot rubes out here in the 'heartland!') illustrates only your own dishonesty and is emblematic of the Republicans' incessant power strategy - Big Lie to the public, and bully and label dissent as loonies and traitors. Creeps. 12 12 2000 Barre, Massachusetts
P.S. Be quite assured I will never ever tune into your program again.

[Gothic Sponge]

34. ^good letter

but i'm sure it won't get past their nazi filter.

[raysr]

I don't know

why he even went on the show, all they wanted was a punching bag!

[Gothic Sponge]

37. ^Because

He needs a job.

[kaitykaity]

41. Oh bullshit.

What 'liberal' radio network executive is watching FAUX News?

[Gothic Sponge]

46. ^Don't know

but that's what Mike said on the air.

[Dimsdale]

48. ^Did he?

What's with the "^"? Just curious.

[Gothic Sponge]

49. sorry for the ^

force of habbit from posting on another message board where you didn't know who was replying to who.

[Dimsdale]

50. Well, did he? n/t

[brainshrub]

81. Welcome to DU

:toast:

This is the smoothest, easiest to use message board on the internet.

[Dimsdale]

43. He wasn't auditioning for a job with Faux, was he?

He'll have a gig. Don't make him out to be desperate.

[kaitykaity]

52. That's what I was trying to get at,

but you said it better.

Malloy doesn't suck up to people like the people on FAUX news. He wouldn't. It's not his style.

[joe1991]

35. Newt's "Word List"

In 1990, Newt Gingrich's political action committee (GOPAC) mailed a pamphlet entitled Language, A Key Mechanism of Control to Republicans across the country. The booklet offered rhetorical advice to Republican candidates who wanted to "speak like Newt."

Kasich who served in congress '82-'02 was lying his ass off
when he said he never saw "Newt's list".

Newt's Name-Calling Words:
http://carmen.artsci.washington.edu/propaganda/newt.htm

[rooboy]

38. That's why Kasich got so upset...

it does something to a person to have one's lies exposed right to their face.

I am fairly certain that Rush isn't the only one popping pills to get himself to sleep every night.

[raysr]

45. The "crime family"

line really got them hot!

[Bozita]

39. Good and timely post

Welcome to DU, Joe.

[Terwilliger]

51. is this being replayed?

[Ksec]

40. He did awesome

He ripped both of their asses with facts and figures and they couldnt handle the truth so they got testy and cut him off repeatedly.

You go Mike Malloy. That fukin rocked. This Kasich is a self professed moderate who ruined the country with Nute Gangreench. He has no cred. Just that phony down home drawl . And yes I saw him stand up , pull the mic off his neck and walk off. Personally I would have liked to see him continue schooling the extremists right wingers

[Ksec]

53. Beware the "extremist label"

Its my opinion that there will be a concerted effort by media to paint the Dems as a extremely left wing organization that cant be trusted. Watch any show. Most have a right winger and left winger and a host who 90% of the time goes along with the right. If a Dem speaks the truth about Bush he instantly is villified as an extremist. Just like Malloy was tonight. You dare speak the truth and you are a left wing conspiracy nutjob. You become fearful to say anything negative . So what can we do. Speak the truth or just be quiet and get the slots?

[Catherine Vincent]

54. Damn, I missed it.

Does it repeat tonite?

[Poiuyt]

56. Remember Jack Paar?

He used to walk off his show all the time. People loved it because they never knew what to expect.

Maybe this will help Mike get a gig.

[grasswire]

58. freepers have 260 posts on this topic

...and they're thrilled at Kasich's actions.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1078362/posts?q=1&&page=1


I wonder why Malloy didn't ask Kasich about the real reason he resigned from Congress? (It had something to do with a young staffer, IIRC)

[0rganism]

60. He shouldn't have gone on the show

Mike talked about his doubts, his misgivings Thursday and Friday. He didn't even want to be there.

Good God, you don't do something like that unless you really want to.

He KNEW the bastards were going to shout him down and insult him, and by walking off the air, he just gave them a chance to primp and preen about how decent and upstanding they are. "Fair and balanced", right? They used him as a whipping boy, and laughed when he left.

You don't play their game unless you're willing to go the full 9 innings.

[Barad Simith]

61. my email to Kasich

subject: Malloy was right and you know it.

message: That's why you cut his mic. You know it's over for the Republicans, and this is how you panic.

[republicansarewhores]

62. The most powerful smell in news... FAUX!

Run by Republican chickenhawks to boot. They don't serve in wars, they just profit promoting and reporting on them.



Is there a link anywhere to video of Malloy walking out? I gotta see it!

RAW

[goclark]

79. Love Your Cards

What was the card for Saddam?

What is the card for * ?

I hope they find * and bring him to trial!

[banana republican]

64. Who else has walked off faux news??

I remember someone else doing it a while back.

Is this becoming a democratic past time??

Are we keeping score of who and how many times dems have walked out???

[Nlighten1]

65. Anyone have this video yet?

[masshole]

67. see post #63 for video

Kasich quotes:
"I'm glad we lost that guy"
"we don't want people calling the president a criminal"
"we don't want OUR side, the republican side..."
"because we ARE fair and balanced"


Too funny. During the AWOL discusssion Faux kept showing photos of Bush* in his uniform, in the cockpit of a plane, etc.

Mike didn't walk off until his mic was cut off. You can clearly see Mike mouth the word "what?" just before he gets up and takes his mic off.

[eleny]

66. I can hardly wait till tomorrow night's broadcast

Kasich went after Mike personally. As soon as he did that and Mike realised it, Mike left. Good for him.

Discuss the issues and that's fine. Go after Mike personally and it's over. Boundaries!

Mike kept his cool while Kasich spiraled off into the gutter. Bad form on John's part. Mike won - hands down.

[imax2268]

68. Yup...

stayed up until 3am so I could see Mike walk off...GREAT JOB MIKE...I applaude you for doing that...

This was a clear set-up by Kaisch...he brought up what was on Mike's website about the Bush Crime family and then used it against Mike to humiliate him on National TV...

Just goes to show that Faux News is "Fair and Balanced"...Fair and Balanced for themselves and the right...

[imax2268]

69. I just sent them

a couple of scathing emails...

here's a few addresses...send them a few letters...not nasty per say...but something that shows your displeasure...

[e-mail]

[e-mail]

If you send them nasty letters they won't get far...send them something that shows your displeasure though...call them on their "Unfair and Unbalanced" style of news...

[PA Democrat]

70. Good thing Mike wasn't in the same studio

He might have strangled Kasich. This is typical Faux news format- 2 or more right wingers ganging up to shout down one liberal.

The only additional point I wish Mike would have made, would be to remind those 2 cretins of the filthy lies that Limbaugh has been spewing for YEARS both on the air and on his website.

Gee, who accused the Clintons of murdering Vince Foster?

And when they get a dose of their own medicine they play the innocent injured party? Oh PLEASE!

[eleny]

73. Kasich is too chickenpoop to say that to Mike's face

I doubt he would have had the nerve in person.

[PA Democrat]

71. My Letter to Kasich

Mr. Kasich:

I intentionally watched your show last night to see Mike Malloy. This was the first time I've watched anything on Fox for more than 2 years, and I assure you it will be the last.

I don't like the negativity in today's politics Mr. Kasich, but to pretend that this is something started by the Democrats is preposterous. You LIED Mr. Kasich when you pretended not to know what Mr. Malloy was talking about when he mentioned the word list developed by your mentor, Newt Gingrich. Let's review a few of the words your mentor advised you to use when speaking about Democrats, since you seem to have conveniently "forgotten" them. Let's see, "corruption", "betray", "traitors", "lie", "sick" just to name a few. You must be PROUD.

Mr. Malloy did not invent the vitriolic tone of talk radio. Rush Limbaugh mastered the genre years ago. I seem to recall Rush announcing on his show that Vince Foster had been MURDERED by the Clintons. You can't sink much lower than calling someone a murderer without proof.

Well, Mr. Kasich, you reap what you sow, and to pretend that you are not part of the problem is hypocrisy (to borrow one of Newt's favorites) in its purest form.

Sincerely,

Pamela Dawson

PS- You kept referring to George Bush as a "fighter" pilot. Just curious, but just WHAT was he fighting? He knew when he joined the TANG that the F-102 had been phased out of Vietnam.

[Ksec]

77. great letter Pam

Ever notice when you debate with a repug and bring up stuff that hurts them they always go personal? Instead of debating the topic they try to smear the debater.

[CaptainMidnight]

72. somebody should "OUT" Kasich

Much like Joe Scarborough getting his own TV show where he can sit back and judge other people nationally, I think Kasich should be exposed, as well.

I'm sure 99% of Scar's viewers dont' know about his murdered intern.

Likewise, I think 99.9% of Kasich's viewers of the Heartland don't know that this guy is secretly gay.

Normally, I don't believe in "outing," but the Repugs and FOX NEWS have gone far enough. Let Kasich feel the heat of his own hypocrisy.

Captain Mike

[eleny]

74. What's the story about Kasich?

I mean - why is he not in Congress. I forget if he decided not to run or lost an election. Thanks in advance.

[CaptainMidnight]

76. that might warrant some investigation

of WHY he retired. He's still pretty young to retire from Congress.

I mean after Scarborough's intern was found murdered in his office, the press covered it up by NOT covering it, and Scar retired from Congress "to spend more time with my family."

For about a dozen years, Kasich shared his Capitol Hill pad with his male chief of staff, who was getting paid over a hundred thousand dollars a year. There were always rumors about him, like Lindsey Graham, Orrin Hatch, and lately Karl Rove.

This is total hearsay, admittedly, but I remember reading somewhere online, about the time that he then retired, that Kasich was busted at some Ohio YMCA for propositioning men there. I can't find it now.

Hell, if the Right Wing can cover up Scar's dead intern, they can sure as hell cover it up if Kasich got busted for gay pandering.

Captain Mike
