FOX NEWS MELTDOWN OVER MERYL STREEP'S GG COMMENTS

screen grab of FOX News article on Streep comment

In the ongoing right-wing meltdown over Meryl Streep's Golden Globe comments about her disgust over Trump's mocking of disabled New York Times scribe Serge Kovalevski, FOX News continues to provide the most entertaining fare.

Take, for instance, today's article, titled "Stars Sick of Their Fellow Entertainers' Political Rants". Let's see which stars they're referring to, exactly.

Okay, so first up, they've got country music star Travis Tritt, who took to Twitter to write: "If you have fans who respect your talent enough to spend hard earned money to see your talent, be thankful and gracious and leave it at that." Well, okay Mr Tritt, but if you really meant what you wrote, why even bother bringing it up? I mean, if celebrity opinions don't merit sharing, wouldn't that apply to yours, too?

Anyway, who's next on FOX's cavalcade of Streep-dissin' celebs? Ah! It's former CNN host and current... sort of rich British guy who occasionally appears in The National Enquirer, Piers Morgan!

Wow. That's a pretty steep drop from Travis Tritt. So who's next?

Why, it's none other than everybody's favorite washed-up, pill-popping, hardcore porn star, Jenna Jameson! The former double-penetration/deep throat gag queen took a break from writing creepy mash notes to Benjamin Netenyahu in order to make her feelings known by Tweeting: "Please someone mute Meryl Streep".

I guess all those years spent being a human punching bag for MMA star Tito Ortiz took a toll on her cognitive functions. So who's next?

Right. Charlie Daniels. Of course.

And finally, FOX wraps things up with "outspoken college football player" Jack Murphy's speculation about the possibility that maybe Vince Vaughan and Mel Gibson also didn't much care for what Streep had to say, based solely on their reactions.

Nice buncha folks, these celebrity Redhats, you must admit!

And anyway, who cares what Meryl Streep says about Trump?

I mean, aside from the hundreds of newspapers and thousands of websites that have reported on her comments--and the continuing, ongoing reactions to her comments, both pro and con--non-stop, for the past 48 hours and counting?

Are you not entertained?

NEW FILM SPARKS OSCAR BUZZ FOR “RAPED BY A PACK OF NIGGERS” STAR


Mel Gibson’s Hacksaw Ridge, which recently premiered at the Venice International Film Festival, is a taut, effective combat drama set in World War II, one of the many wars which Gibson blames on “the fucking Jews”, who also - as Gibson has expended a great deal of time, energy, and money to make sure the world never forgets - are the same people who killed Jesus Christ.

Hacksaw Ridge is the first movie Gibson has directed since Apocalypto, which came out right around the time he called the female officer arresting him for drunk driving “sugar tits” and correctly identified her partner as being a member of the Jewish race, all before threatening: “I will fuck you. I own Malibu.” 

It’s the true story of Desmond Doss, the first conscientious objector to receive the Medal of Honor, and a man who probably never would have dreamed of physically assaulting his girlfriend, calling her a “bitch”/“whore”/“cunt”/“pig in heat”, saying that he hopes she gets “raped by a pack of niggers”, then threatening to rape her, himself, before burning her house down.

The question of whether or not a filmmaker’s personal behavior should influence critics’ opinions of their films isn’t an easy one to answer. Just ask Frank Rich, whose critical take on The Passion of The Christ led Gibson to publicly declare: “I want to kill him. I want his intestines on a stick. I want to kill his dog.”

Hacksaw Ridge reaches theaters in November, when studios typically release the films that they believe have a good chance of scoring an Academy Award. It remains to be seen whether or not Gibson’s history of controversial public statements will affect the judgement of AMPAS' voting members, a demographic heavily weighted not just with Jesus-killers, but also with men who “take it up the ass”, an orifice which Gibson has publicly stated should be reserved “only for taking a shit.”

On the plus side for Gibson, however, the Academy’s ranks number hardly any “wetbacks” at all.

ON THIS DAY IN PARAPOLITICAL HISTORY, MAY 11



On this day in 1310, 54 members of the Knights Templar are burned at the stake as heretics in France. However, the 23rd and final "official" Grand Master of the Templars - Jacques DeMolay - survives nearly four more years before ultimately meeting a similar fiery fate on March 13, 1314.

On this day in 1812, Prime Minister Spencer Perceval is assassinated by John Bellingham in the lobby of the House of Commons, London. He is the first, and so far only, British Prime Minister to be assassinated while serving. Historian Andro Linklater's latest tome is controversially titled Why Spencer Perceval Had to Die, painting a not-so-likable portrait of the doomed PM, whereas this Telegraph UK editorial claims he deserves to be remembered for more than just being assassinated.

On this day in 1916, after nearly a year spent re-working some of the mathematics involved, renowned theoretical physicist and "world's smartest man" Albert Einstein presents his Theory of General Relativity to his peers. Basically, Einstein's conception of relativity is a geometric theory of gravitation, and it remains the current description of gravitation in modern physics. According to Wikipedia: "General relativity generalizes special relativity and Newton's law of universal gravitation, providing a unified description of gravity as a geometric property of space and time, or space-time. In particular, the curvature of spacetime is directly related to the energy and momentum of whatever matter and radiation are present. The relation is specified by the Einstein field equations, a system of partial differential equations." Simple, no? Of course, there are quite a few people who believe the whole thing is just a bunch of high quackery, and they opened a web forum to air alternative views.

On this day in 1927, showbiz pioneer Louis B Mayer forms the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, without which we would have had no idea that The English PatientTitanic and Shakespeare in Love were all actually very good movies, despite all evidence to the contrary.

On this day in 1949, the freshly-minted nation of Israel joins the United Nations. Eleven years later, on this day in 1960, four Israeli Mossad agents capture fugitive Nazi technocrat Adolf Eichmann, one of the architects of the "Final Solution to the Jewish Problem". Eichmann had been living in Buenos Aires, Argentina, under the alias: Ricardo Klement. There is no way in Hell he was the only high-ranking Nazi to escape Europe in this way, as future posts here at the Useless Eater Blog will hopefully prove to you, beyond any reasonable factor of doubt. 

On this day in 1997, IBM's chess-playing supercomputer Deep Blue defeats Russian chess champ Garry Kasparov in the last game of the rematch, becoming the first computer to beat a world-champion chess player in a classic match format. After SkyNet takes over the world, this will probably be declared an official "Robot Holiday" or something. You just know those shiny metal bastards are going to relish rubbing our noses in it.

On this day in 1981, Jamaican music pioneer and Rastafarian prophet/saint Bob Marley dies of cancer at the age of 36... or does he?! 

On this day in 1988, British spy Kim Philby dies in Moscow, where he "retired" after being sniffed out as a communist double-agent for the Soviet Union. His life story, at the provided link, is damn fascinating. The Rooskies even gave him a postage stamp! Check it out!
