Pitt Out At TruthOut?
Self | July 31, 2010 | Rush Limbaugh and PJ-Comix

Posted on 07/31/2010 6:47:23 AM PDT by PJ-Comix

Is William Rivers Pitt out at TruthOut? His last article, Seeing The Elephant was from over two weeks ago. He is still listed in the TruthOut masthead but they don't update those things right away. I do notice that Jason Leopold has had quite a few TruthOut articles lately. Bad blood between the Pittster and Leopold?

If Pitt is OUT at TruthOut, where does he go from there? The last few months which included his banishment from DUmmieland for angry drunken rants in which he threatened violence upon a homeless woman have been a long descent into well-deserved obscurity for Pitt. The biggest tragedy in Pitt's disappearance is he will no longer provide great comedy material for the DUmmie FUnnies.

Time to put Pitt on the milk cartons yet?

Is the Pittster gone for good from TruthOut?

Maybe he’ll grace us with his oratory skills right here at FR.

Who cares where Pitt, the pathetic, sniveling neo-Marxist fart goes?

Oh, PJ..I can no longer look for European foods for you, but if you want anything from the Philippines, just let me know.
Sweet young ladies are the best commodity here ;)

Possibly a sabbatical to the closest rehab facility?

Could be. He also definitely needs to quit smoking. That hoarse smoker’s voice of his tells the story.

I heard there was a new “Butterfly” in the PI.

“I heard there was a new “Butterfly” in the PI.”

Errrr...Is this supposed to be a lead in to something perverted? haha
I rarely see any butterflies here on my beach.

I’ve never heard him speak. I’ve seen a photo or two of him with a cigarette, but didn’t know how habitual that was. But the stick and booze do go together.

I still enjoy a VERY occasional cigar (4 this year...). and my glass of bourbon on Saturday/Sunday, with a glass of wine at meals, but that’s it. He needs to learn to practice moderation (though it may be too late for that...).

Looks like Pitt's headed for a hard landing at Bukowski's...

It’s painful to hear him speak. A raspy smoker’s voice that screams of unhealthiness.

Where have you heard him speak? I though you lived in south Florida and he lived in Boston?

Pitt has just been delayed in getting his next article published. It will be ready within 24 business hours. Bank it!

What a pathetic individual. A reputation for over-indulging the booze, not to mention drunken rants online that get him tombstoned from a worthless website, and a cigarette habit that is likely eviscerating whatever health he still may enjoy. And this guy still has dreams of grandeur?

I would hope his new wife would have some timely intervention of his downward spiral, but she may not have the strength to intervene. Oh, well.

Thanks for the scoop, P-J, sir.

You’re right about the masthead; I’ve followed the career of the Bostonian Drunkard for some years now, obviously, and there is a pattern to TruthOut being “slow” in revising its staff list.

He does the audio of a lot of his TruthOut articles.
