Protesters attack Garofalo show
April 9 — 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.

Garofalo had no comment.Well that's a first. Maybe she's learning. I seem to remember her saying something about if there was WMD in Iraq she'd personally deliver roses to the Whitehous. I hope she's bought her ticket.

Whooooaaaa, now the heat is on.
Certainly, Garofalo might just have a few functioning brain cells of sense, just enough to have a motor response to SHUT HER D&MN MOUTH and not totally trash her own career!!!!!

"Our country is founded on a sham: our forefathers were slave-owning rich white guys who wanted it their way. So when I see the American flag, I go, 'Oh my God, you're insulting me.' That you can have a gay parade on Christopher Street in New York, with naked men and women on a float cheering, 'We're here, we're queer!' -- that's what makes my heart swell. Not the flag, but a gay naked man or woman burning the flag. I get choked up with pride." -- Garafolo, 1998
"When Communist U.S.S.R. was a superpower, the world was better off." -- Garafolo

Pooooooooooooooooooor baby. Now she'll think she's a leftist martyr, like the Anita Hoffman character she played in "Steal This Movie" (which was so bad no one would even steal it.)

Strange...I haven't seen anything on FR about protesting her sitcom. Time for a search.

Why does this pudgy little twerp garner so much press? She's a stand up comedian with a smart mouth and a NY accent, for cryin' out loud.
Good luck to her getting laughs when she decides to get back to comedy.

How is she going to have time to do a show when she's crawling to the White House, on her knees, on broken glass, as she promised? She made this promise to O'Reilly last month. She was so SURE she would be RIGHT. And what's happening in Iraq right now proves she's wrong.
