Sleaze-shtick comic Andrew Dice Clay may have dropped out of sight for a while - but he still lives up to his image.
While being interviewed on CNNfn, Clay went into a rage, cursed out the anchorman and stormed off the set. He went into his tirade when anchor Allan Chernoff asked him about his experience working in a gym while he was out of the comic circuit.
"Running a gym?" Clay exploded. "Where did you get - you're supposed to be a news guy. Where are you getting your [expletive] information?"
When Chernoff said CNN researchers discovered it, Clay shot back, "This is ridiculous. I come on CNN and the guy don't even know what he's talking about . . ."
"I come on the news two seconds and you want to - every time I do an interview, a guy wants to open his [expletive] mouth."
Chernoff cut him off with a diplomatic, "Thank you very much" but Clay responded, "You know what? Go [expletive] yourself."
A CNNfn spokeswoman said: "Mr. Clay promised the producers he would refrain from using profanity; obviously he couldn't resist."

He was never funny and handing out sweaty towels is above his station.

Clay just discovered how stupid the folks are at CNN. How long before Clay becomes a freeper?

If I were on CNN with a lazy reporter, I'd cuss, too.

No publicity is bad publicity for the Dice Man.
It's all an act and it sounds like he played CNN like a fiddle.

Both with a buck and a quart.

Clay was actually pretty decent as Max Goldman on Crime Story back in the 80s.

Another case of "dumb and dumber." JMHO

He was a huge hit at colleges until they were told not to like him.

I thought he was hilarious. The PC crowd nailed him for making fun of queers, ooops, I mean the sexually challenged.
To: steppenwolffe
I liked his comedy, he was harsh, but totally non PC, it was PC that killed is career... so if he tell CNN to go F itself, then he has a right. CNN, even on the AM dial they are biased.

Maybe he should have mentioned Howard Stern, it's becoming a "tradition" on CNN and might get him back on the show. >:)
Dice was funny most of the time, but he followed a trail Sam Kinison blazed and never quite reached Sam's level of intensity or relevance.

Let me reformat this:
Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater
Had a wife, loved to beat her
Smacked her twice across the head
(Had sex with her) and went to bed
Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet
Eating her curds and whey.
Along came a spider,
Who sat down beside her
And said, "Hey, what's in the bowl, b---h?" Oh!
