Geraldo Rivera Enrages Hosts for Pointing Out Media Didn't Blame Obama for Shootings
MRC News Busters ^ | November 1, 2018 3:46 PM EDT | Kristine Marsh

Thursday on The View, the liberal hosts grilled their guest, FNC's Geraldo Rivera, for comments he made about the pipe bomb suspect, and the media’s attacks on President Trump.

Rivera, who's not a conservative by any stretch of the imagination, still took heat because he defended President Trump and called out CNN for being partisan and biased.

The interview started with Rivera disagreeing with the president about immigration and the caravan but he quickly got into a heated argument with the liberal hosts once they started talking about the mail bombs and the media.

Co-host Joy Behar asked about Rivera’s claim last week that he believed the mail bombs were an “elaborate hoax.” Rivera explained that he apologized for saying that before Behar berated him with, “Why? You know that was total BS and you know it. You're too smart not to know that.”

Rivera explained how the devices were not viable, and how the whole “cartoonish” situation with the suspect’s van seemed like a guaranteed way to hurt the president right before the midterms. “It seemed too pat. I never should have said it. I shouldn't have opined when I didn't know,” he said before apologizing to CNN. But co-host Sunny Hostin pressed him to go further and blame Trump:

Talking about this alleged bomb maker, he had a van plastered with pro Trump propaganda, he videotaped himself at Trump rallies holding signs that said “CNN sucks,” his social media accounts were chock full of Trump fervor and threats to Trump critics. Can you honestly say President Trump's words and actions didn't inspire this guy?

It shows how far the Lefties have gone when Geraldo seems reasonable.

Barack HUSSEIN 0bama stirred up the BLM terrorists to kill cops and he never got blamed for it.

I don’t know what’s gotten in to Geraldo lately. He’s taken some other half way decent position I happened to catch when I couldn’t find the remote quick enough to change the channel when he came on. I actually did find it and hit the rewind button to make sure I heard him correctly. I did. Very puzzling.

Lunatics have difficulty with self-control. Likely, you haven’t seen the sub-cesspoll depths of their incivility. Disgusting & Pathetic

Geraldo claims to be a republican ... go figure.

Sunny Hostin, Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg ludicrously argued that distrust of the media started with Trump.

This last sentence pretty much sums up how ridiculous these fools are!

I’ve noticed it too. He seems to be a fan of DJT.

The left is full of people who don’t understand that they don’t understand. They think they are the ‘intellectuals’ and the thoughtful, inclusive, progressive people in society, but in reality they are overpopulated by a large percentage of wannabe important people who have never realized that helping a few people, sincerely, each day, a day at a time, without fanfare, is actually the most effective and best way to make positive change.

That doesn’t work for them, because they need to be MORE important than the rest of us. That Trump points out their hypocrisy and challenges their self-perception of being ‘special’ beyond the rest of us are by far the most important reasons they are unhinged and hate him - and us.

“I’ve noticed it too. He seems to be a fan of DJT.”

I firmly believe that if he had not been on the Apprentice that he would not be much of a fan of Trump.

I don’t know what’s gotten in to Geraldo lately.

He has decided to position himself a bit to the right of Juan Williams and Shep Smith.

Watching those View women talk is like watching videos of drunk russians. You know they’re going to do something stupid and they always do.

I'm suffering from chronic Geraldo Rivera/Juan Williams fatigue.

I'm SO tired of these two rambling, trite bores appearing on my screen almost constantly.

Time for Fox to hire some new liberal contributors to take their places....anyone....these two nothing-burgers are taking up too much of my valuable viewing-time.

Crazy as Geraldo is at times, he's a long time friend of Trump's and a fierce defender.

I once heard Jerry Rivers as a guest host with O’Reilly and during the that sit-down, Jerry said “I’m a Republican!”

Moment’s after that, I was cleaning up Dr. Pepper soda pop from my keyboard.

Geraldo a lib but he also know Trump Personally so he know he Trump is not the monster the crazy left paints

I actually have to split the left into 2 different groups because there are sane libs out there that disagree with Trump policies but they don’t hate Trump

Is it drowned out by the crazy left...but you know they’re out there you’ve seen them...Dershowitz is one

It’s like there’s us on the right but then there’s also the few crazies on the right that you don’t want anything to do with

Rush It’s talked about this for years that each side had their crazies but the left kept encouraging more more crazies into it

while we tried to keep them at arm’s length

now the left is mostly nuts

Geraldo is no doubt a good debater. Perhaps even a master of it. He acquitted himself well in this despite the odds against him. BUT I still have not forgiven him for what I perceive to have been a back handed racial slur against "Whites" and perhaps others.

In that case, sometime last week, he was commenting on the caravan headed North and defended their alleged rights to come here by saying, we are do not like the "Brown faces" in the caravan. If he said this defending Whites, he would be called a racist; so in my opinion he is one.

I am sick and tired of being cast as a Racist because of nothing other than my skin color by people who do not know me. Who are they to judge me?

Well enough, I figure they will try to remove me from FR, by misinterpreting the 25th Amendment (LOL)
