Jerry rented a sideshow booth featuring sub-human trailer trash in the Circus called America.

No. He didn't.

Otherwise he would have stopped.

He was a mentally sick perverted old fart who encouraged depravity.

I kinda of expect his funeral to be a freak circus....for poetic justice. But he stands before Jesus now, crapping his pants or releasing the love, like the rest of us.

One of his stupid shows had people suing each other in the aftermath. And suing Springer. Turns out Springer's staff encouraged one of the participants to physically assault another person on the show.

That was one of the few episodes I saw, but the victim was the scorned husband and the perp was the whore wife's new boyfriend. The perp knocked the husband out of the chair. There was a mark on his face where he had been hit.

The whole episode was disgraceful and Springer was trash. Low class.

Cost of doing business. The kind if people that would go on Springer and air their dirty laundry for a plane ticket and a free hotel room were bound to be potentially litigious. Most of the fights I saw on the show were flailing cat-fights....fat chicks getting their hair extensions torn out in fights over punks that didn’t care about them was about the worst of it. Remember the Jenny Jones murder case?

You may have an inflated view of the American people. Saloon society is, and always has been, pretty trashy and lacking in self-awareness. Springer just gave them a stage.

Oh yeah, don't forget writing a check to a prostitute for "Services rendered"

He was a scumbag who made a living airing other people's laundry, lewdness and misery. Good riddance!

Never pay with a check for “Services Rendered” at a bawdy house.

“Diagnosed with cancer a few months ago, with his health taking a turn for the worse this week according to TMZ.”

“The jab?”

As the fake vax/bioweapon wears down the immune system cancers become more aggressive.

Jerry Springer Talks About Getting COVID: EP-328
“Jerry has had Covid 19 for the past several weeks, and since he’s now tested negative, we can talk about it openly on the show and help listeners learn in real time what a “breakthrough” case turns out being: The vaccine works! Though he had some symptoms, nothing involved the hospital or anything close. But it did require 14 days of quarantine.”

So, yes, he did at least once. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was boosted several times thereafter.

He did expose the Subculture. We should’ve taken note back then.
