He should know, his BF does it to him regularly.
To: BunnySlippers
I think he was just day-dreaming.

Calling it a "stupid, silly, one-line aside," It wasn't a one line aside .. it was a one liner. A joke to make fun of tea parties and to joke about it.

Of course he can express regrets now. It’s already out there, so anything he says now is meaningless.
They’re all in the bag for Obammie the Commie.

It was intentional, obscene, and demeaning. Why is he still on TV? Although since nobody watches him it kinda makes up that last one.

“I don’t think it’s my job to disparage, or encourage, which oddly other networks seemed to be doing.”
What the hell does that mean?

It was the
way you stated it, Anderson. You know, in that "inside joke", elitist, homo way of yours, my dear.
Teabag, indeed. Homo teabagging, oh how so insightful.

His “oddly” comment above was strange as well.
He is apologizing but taking a swipe at Fox News at the same time.

I would argue that the only people familiar with the term, before he and his ilk spread it all over the media, were people who had engaged in the activity.
How about it Anderson? Did you have a little fun with the "guys" in college?

Is that why his show is called AC 360?
To: Carl LaFong
Great minds think alike: See my post 11.

It’s not like he needs the money, he’s heir to a fortune.

Exactly.
Cram your “teabagging” apology, Anderson.
To: BunnySlippers
He should be made to resign.
Just like Don Imus.
There's no difference between the behavior of the two of them.
To: Old Sarge
and wombtotomb says Anderson got taken to the woodshed. While all those freaks at CNN/MSNBC/et al. feel that way, they underestimated the sheer number of folks they offended, and they are not supposed to speak out loud off THEIR teleprompters for this very reason. I guess thats why they never make fun of that one for using it.
