Crazed TV Show ‘Bleeps’ Out Trump’s Name Like Curse Word
Newsbusters.org ^ | June 13, 2017 | Corrine Weaver

Typically when the “bleep” sound is heard on television, it means that someone used an expletive or took something to the extreme. But not for Broad City, the Comedy Central show co-created by Ilana Glazer. On that show, when you hear the bleep, it means someone said the word “Trump.”

The horror.

Following in the footsteps of Hollywood’s attempt to take down the president at every opportunity, the fourth season of Broad City will bleep out every use of Trump’s name on their show. As llana Glazer told USA Today in an interview, “There’s no airtime for this orange (person).”

Originally, Glazer and her co-creator Abbi Jacobson wrote the fourth season thinking the 2016 election would turn out differently. And in fact, on previous episodes, the series has indulged Clinton with an incredible amount of hero-worship. Specifically, one episode involved Glazer’s character volunteering to campaign for Clinton.

But after “this game show host became president of our country,” Glazer decided to take a different route. She told USA Today that she was forced to rewrite most of the fourth season following Trump’s election.

The USA Today article also described an episode in the fourth season, which premiered at the Colossal Clusterfest in San Francisco. In the episode, the main character was losing “touch with her womanhood” as a witch, according to Glazer, because of the “danger” that people face during the current administration.

One has to wonder what sort of danger Glazer is seeing. Apparently, in her eyes, it’s dangerous enough to call for a complete obliteration of the POTUS’ name so that people aren’t offended.

We need to take on cable bundling again and resurrect the a la carte programming option that got shot down a few years back, and let networks Like Comedy Central feel it in their wallets. Likewise to the big ISP's and cable providers that force you to take a hundred channels of pure horse muffins, when you only watch five. It's the damned alphabet networks that drive the cost so high. You dance to their fiddle or you don't dance at all. As a provider, you HAVE to carry their product and pay through the nose for it, including whatever ancillary cable programming they produce. I work for one; I've seen it on paper and in practice. It's a scam as big as Big Pharma, banking, and the insurance industry.

I hate that they are doing this to a man that wants to see the USA move forward.

They represent everything that hurts our system of self-reliance and capitalism.

They are socialists that were defeated. Trump is the worst of their fear. He will soldier on. Obama is gone and so is his existence.

You know it just as good as anyone.

Leave me to my devices and I will create wealth.

I will share that wealth as the need becomes greater.

I have a hard time figuring out his legacy.

Did he just hate the USA?

He never made any damn sense.

It sounds like Llana Glazer is “sad” that Trump is the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. ROTFL. She may want to go see a shrink.

All of these rancid ape-snot morons are in for a big comeuppance, and their torture has only just barely begun. Donald J. Trump will Preside over the United States for the next eight years, to be followed by eight years of President Mike Pence (D.J.Trump, Jr his VP), to be followed by eight years of President Donald J. Trump Jr.

For your basic snowflake libtard, that is a solid quarter-century of being slammed up-side the head with how wrong and stupid and venal they are. It's a whole generation of well-raised kids knowing right from wrong and why the difference between the two is all-important.

It's a whole new generation that know both America's History, and our need for God in our lives.

Amen.

Sorry but I haven’t watched any of this leftist crap since the early 2000’s.

Started watching Fox in 2002 when I was in the hospital with a heart attack. Have stayed with them ever since. Love Greg Gutfeld, Kimberly Guilfoyle and Jesse Watters. Intelligent, witty and pretty (no, not Gutfeld, you clowns).

Sour grapes from those who love criminal corruption in government when a w-itch named Hitlery Rotten Clinton does it.

She lost. GET. OVER. IT.
