Rick Sanchez: Jon Stewart is a bigot

[MadBadger]

Rick Sanchez saying some mind-numbingly fucking dumb things.


CNN’s Rick Sanchez is not happy with being made fun of constantly on The Daily Show and Colbert Report. It is through this jumping off point that he absolutely unleashed on Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, and at times his own network, on Pete Dominick’s satellite radio show yesterday

Dominick was not just a radio show host – he is a CNN contributor who has a regular gig on John King, USA (more on that below), and he formerly was the warm up comic at The Daily Show Which is why when Sanchez says “I think Jon Stewart’s a bigot” early in the interview, Dominick pushed back...


Dominick: How is he a bigot?
Sanchez: I think he looks at the world through, his mom, who was a school teacher, and his dad, who was a physicist or something like that. Great, I’m so happy that he grew up in a suburban middle class New Jersey home with everything you could ever imagine.
Dominick: What group is he bigoted towards?
Sanchez: Everybody else who’s not like him. Look at his show, I mean, what does he surround himself with?

A few minutes later, Sanchez takes back the word “bigot,” changing it to “prejudicial” and “uninformed.”

Later in the interview, Dominick brings up the fact that Stewart is Jewish, so is a minority himself. Sanchez laughs this off:

I’m telling you that everybody who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart, and to imply that somehow they, the people in this country who are Jewish, are an oppressed minority? Yeah.

If that wasn’t clear, the “yeah” was sarcastic. “I can’t see somebody not getting a job somewhere because they’re Jewish,” says Sanchez.

A few other things: Sanchez ended his 8pmET version of Rick’s List today, and Parker Spitzer come in Monday. According to the same blog post, Dominick is starting a weekly Saturday 2:30pmET show on CNN tomorrow. We’ll get the audio up here shortly, but you can listen on Dominick’s site. And finally, we’ve reached out to CNN for a response.

It is not hard to imagine there may be a significant response. It should also be noted that this is the end of week one for a new boss at CNN, Ken Jautz.

3. Guess what will be the subject on Stewart's next show? I suspect Sanchez will wish he kept his

mouth shut

[Ian David]

9. I predict Sanchez will be making a sizable donation to The Holocaust Museum soon. n/t

[Yavin4]

4. Jon Stewart is indeed a bigot

He's bigoted against morons on cable news shows like Rick Sanchez.

[Dappleganger]

10. +10000

"I do not suffer fools."

[Historic NY]

32. We have a winner!!

[Botany]

5. Ah Rick, I wouldn't mess w/ Jon Stewart

See Tucker Carlson

[tavalon]

29. Yep, Jon Stewart and David Letterman

You do not mess with either of them. It rarely works out at all, really.

[gratuitous]

34. Or rather, don't see Tucker Carlson

At the mention of Stewart's name, Tucker hides under his desk, whimpering and cringing.

[golddigger]

6. CNN is still fuming because Stewart demolished

their show "Crossfire."

[Ian David]

8. Actually, Crossfire demolished Crossfire. Jon Stewart simply stood on the rubble with a bullhorn. nt

[davidinalameda]

27. I remember when the show first started

it was so good

[Ian David]

7. Wow. Rick Sanchez really isn't a big fan of The Jews, is he? n/t

[Supersedeas]

30. Sanchez's answer to that would have to be, "Yeah."

[blondeatlast]

11. If I even knew who you were, Mr. Sanchez, I might slightly mourn your

loss of career.

[Enrique]

12. Stewart has a "deep-seated hatred of gentiles"

:sarcasm:

[Freddie Stubbs]

13. Sanchez hit and paralyzed a man while driving drunk and left the scene of the accident

He is scum.

[KharmaTrain]

14. Wow...5 Alarm Anti-Semetic Dogwhistles Blowing...

Didn't take long for my 50 plus "some of my best friends are" detector to go off. Looks like Jon got a direct hit again and I expect Mr. Stewart gets the last word, if not his bosses at Chicken Noodle Nuze.

[muffin1]

26. Bwaaaaaaaaa!

Chicken Noodle News...:rofl:

[AngryAmish]

15. What do they say about Sanchez?

Is it when he misidentified Hawaii?

[Aramchek]

16. Aye, Dios Mio!!

[DirkGently]

17. Wow. Not smart. Then he treads in the "Jews run the media" gutter?

[MadBadger]

18. The Best Part is the " Looks who he surrounds himself with" line

His show has an Englishman, a Muslim, two black guys, Two Women, and a Canadian Couple. As they said the other day, the only thing he doesnt have on his show is a Christian White American Male.

[Ichingcarpenter]

19. what does he surround himself with? Two Canadians, two blacks

two women, one Indian, one Brit, a John Hodgeman and Lewis Black

Sounds pretty well rounded to me.

[davidinalameda]

28. Canadians?

oh the humanity!!!!!

[unblock]

35. shouldn't lewis bring it up to three blacks?

:evilgrin:

[Bluenorthwest]

20. I heard a few minutes of Sanchez yesterday

He seemed to be upset that the word 'bully' was being used to describe anti gay bullies. I had to turn him off, first time I've watched in weeks. He was like a sputtering, right wing gas bag, and I'll never listen to him again. He veered close to defending the two people who harrassed the kid who jumped.

[Whisp]

21. This will be gold. Stewart will eat Sanchez the Moran alive.

[RockaFowler]

22. I heard this interview yesterday

Sanchez really has no room to talk. He said that Jon Stewart doesn't have any minorities working on his show. What the heck does that mean????

[MadBadger]

23. The only thing he doesnt have on his show is A White Male American Christian.

[arbusto_baboso]

24. Thanks Rick, for simply proving Jon Stewart's point about you.

You ARE, indeed, a complete fucking moron.

[WorseBeforeBetter]

25. Do your job AS A JOURNALIST, Sanchez, and you won't be a target of...

Jon Stewart and The Daily Show. It's really quite simple.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

31. Sanchez is one of the dumbest people on TV

Remember when he asked how much 3 meters was in English? Or said volcanoes don't happen in places that are cold?

Bill O Reilly is hateful, and Glenn Beck is nuts. But Sanchez is just out and out stupid.

[Malikshah]

33. Ah...Rick Sanchez....the ultimate D-Bag of South Florida

His own TV station didn't want his sorry behind back when he left. (And it was a Fox station of the most FemBot pathetic type)

Sanchez who was pilloried after Hurricane Andrew.
Sanchez who makes Ron Burgundy look like Edward R. Murrow....
Sanchez...needs to get a clue.

[jberryhill]

36. The Jews That Run Everything Are Bigots?

Ummmm... okay, Rick.

[Whisp]

37. his show is coming up soon. I almost don't want to look

I heard that radio interview and o boy, Sanchez is off his friggin rocker. He makes no fucking sense at all.

something must be going on besides Stewart. somethign is wrong with his thought processes.

[bvar22]

38. Oh GOOD!

I hope Jon brings in The Choir to help with his rebuttal.
This is going to be good!

[dogday]

40. Just gives Jon fuel for the fire. He will rip faux a new one and it

will be funny as hell. Can't wait to see how he does Rick.... :rofl:

[Maru Kitteh]

41. Looks like little Ricky took the day off today. HUH.

I wonder if he was *invited* to take a sick day today?
