Protesters attack Garofalo show With Ashley Pearson, MSNBC

Will another anti-war celeb take a career hit? Bush supporters have been deluging ABC with calls and e-mails, complaining about a sitcom the network has in development starring outspoken war protester Janeane Garofalo. ABC HAS reportedly been working on the comedy, in which Garofalo plays a producer at a TV newsmagazine.

The pro-war protesters are threatening to organize a major campaign against ABC, including a boycott of advertisers, if the network airs the show.

"We do not wish to see the faces of liberal Hollywood, particularly those that provided aid and comfort to Saddam Hussein," protester Jon Alvarez e-mailed ABC. "We will stand up and fight for our right to request their exclusion from shows and sponsors that seek our attention."

Spokesmen for ABC and Garofalo had no comment.

Quite frankly, I love it when Hillary double-crosses the left. For years, they have built up that couple as candidates for sainthood.....as long as they were putting the screws to the rest of the country. However, just let them double-cross one of their own, and they don't like it.

LOL!!!

To Garofalo:

As Iraqi men hold this banner, others put their arms around the Marines.

[Paul Atreides]

Me neither. She is the one who claimed that the anti-American protestors holding the banner about the military shooting the officers was made up by talk radio hosts.

MY god, I LOVE THAT PICTURE!

[Publius6961]

Perhaps Syria, Iran and Lebanon could use a little comedic relief?

They got TeeVee, don't they?

[duckman]

Just E-Mailed this address and received a reply " Email deleted not read". Any one else get this??????

[sarasota]

Yes I did. Isn't that interesting. What are other options??

[sarasota]

Anyone have a list of advertisers?

The tide is turning folks. These Hollyweird types have had free reign for years to say whatever they wanted and then be held up as some sort of guru on any topic they wished to spout off about. Those days are over. Now they're treated as a pariah or a joke. Keep it up!

IMO Fox News and Drudge deserve a lot of credit or we would still have just CNN and rest of the gang throwing roses at their feet whenever they uttered an anti-Bush comment.

My guess is that ABC 'shut down' that e-mail address. That is the only address they have at their web site for a 'contact us'.

Let's Televise the War Tool around the Internet and you can quickly find plenty of criticism of television for failing to present a comprehensible picture of what the hell is going on in Iraq, to make sense of all that audio and video that pours in via satellite to New York and Atlanta. I tend to agree. The more you watch, the less you understand....

 

Nets Hunt to Fill Trouble Spots  War and Fox's American Idol are distracting the broadcast networks from their normal March and April activities—focusing on the coming advertising upfronts, May sweeps and development for the fall season—and instead forcing them to constantly tinker with their prime time schedules. ABC is making the most changes, pulling three series and postponing several specials....
