The time RFK Jr. pushed for an advertiser boycott of Sean Hannity’s show, then suggested he was a fascist

Matt Gertz at MMFA:

Anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has been feted by right-wing media figures in a transparent attempt to damage Joe Biden’s reelection campaign, previously called for advertiser boycotts against right-wing media figures he said were “lying to the American public” by denying climate change. The figures Kennedy called out — and later described as fascists — include Fox News host Sean Hannity, who is hosting a town hall for the candidate on his Tuesday night broadcast. Kennedy condemned Hannity and other “corporate toadies” who are “lying to you” during a speech at Live Earth New York on July 7, 2007. “And so I'm going to tell you this,” he said, “that the next time you see John Stossel, or Glenn Beck, or Rush Limbaugh, or Sean Hannity, these flat-Earthers, these corporate toadies, lying to you, lying to the American public, and telling you that global warming doesn't exist, you send an email to their advertisers and tell them you're not going to buy their products anymore.”

Hannity, who had previously jousted with Kennedy about climate change and the environment several times on his Fox show (then billed Hannity & Colmes), responded two nights later. He called Kennedy an “environmental extremist” and “a very angry man,” and went on to denounce the activist’s “incendiary rhetoric.” The Fox host further criticized Kennedy for “taking a shot at me and everyone else who doesn't buy into his global warming hysteria” on his July 11, 2007, show. He also described him the following night as a “Learjet liberal” who is “very angry, very shrill” and “so arrogant and condescending.” Kennedy subsequently went on Glenn Beck’s CNN Headline News program and said that he considered Beck, Hannity, and the other right-wing media figures he had criticized to be fascists. During the July 12, 2007, interview, Beck said that “you call me a fascist for asking questions” and asked Kennedy to define the term. 

In 2007, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made a speech at Live Earth New York blasting the likes of climate deniers such as the late Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, John Stossel, and co. by calling these folks fascists.

Nowadays, RFK Jr. is sucking up to the same people he correctly derided as fascists back in 2007 for his run on the Democratic ticket in the 2024 election to a right-wing audience (aka the only audience who truly supports an RFK Jr. run).

‘Insane’ Alan Colmes: ‘You’re scare mongering and hurting the country’

http://twitter.com/#!/steveno88/status/517835913104465920 Left wing pundit Alan Colmes—who never met a DNC talking point he didn’t repeat ad nauseum—was on The O’Reilly Factor tonight discussing the Ebola situation. He said that people who express concerns about the spread of the virus are “scare mongering and hurting the country.” It sounds like he thinks we should just trust our government to…

Slate on Alan Colmes - "Colmes Was a Buffoon and Patsey... Original Liberal Weakling"

Slate on Alan Colmes – “Colmes Was a Buffoon and Patsey… Original Liberal Weakling”

Alan Colmes died a few days ago but moments after his death, Slate’s contributor, Isaac Chotiner, said that because Colmes was “a nice guy and a liberal” who worked on Fox News, he was a “Buffoon” used by the conservative network.

“Alan Colmes, Buffoon and Patsy, Was Fox News’ Original Liberal Weakling,” wrote Slate’s Isaac Chotiner [Editor’s note: Nope, not going to link to it]. Chotiner doesn’t…
