Airhead America: Failed Liberal Radio Network Hires Insane Host Who Threatened to “Blow Up” Teen Girl, Pimped People on Worthless Obama Coins, Etc.
By Debbie Schlussel
You have to laugh at dying liberal radio network Air America’s just-inked contract with Montel Williams to host a show.
It’s not just that his minstrel show talk show–a low-grade copy of Springer–was canceled by FOX TV affiliates and had to close up shop. It’s not just that he regularly featured psychic Sylvia Browne on his show and that he’s smug and arrogant with no basis for it.
It’s that he’s a nut and threatened violence against a teen reporter and pimped Black people on worthless Obama coins in sleazy late night TV infomercials.
First there’s the threat to blow a girl up:
A thoughtful query caused Montel Williams to cancel an interview and later threaten the high school newspaper intern who asked the question, reports the Associated Press.
“I’m trying to figure out exactly why you are here and what the interview is about,” Montel snapped at Savannah Morning-News intern Courtney Scott.
The talk show host, in town to promote a free prescription drug program for low-income patients, ended the press event after Courtney asked if he thought that pharmaceutical companies would be discouraged from research and development if profits were restricted.
“I’m here as a patient advocate talking about the fact that medications available today are saving people’s lives, that’s what’s saving mine and after that, this interview is done,” the multiple sclerosis-afflicted Montel said before storming out
Later, Montel confronted Courtney and crew at his hotel, while they were covering another story.
“As we were preparing to film, Montel walked up with his bodyguard and got in Courtney Scott’s face pointing his finger telling her ‘Don’t look at me like that. Do you know who I am? I’m a big star, and I can look you up, find where you live and blow you up’,” said Joseph Cosey, a Web content producer for the newspaper. “At this time he was randomly pointing at all of us.”
“I’m not sure if he meant ‘blow me up’ and ruin my career or really blow us up, but it was threatening,” Courtney added.
Hmmm . . . where are the feminists protesting “Air America” for hiring this man who is abusive to women.
And why is Oprah promoting him? Yesterday, she had him on her show to hawk his psychobabble book. While she’s yelling and screaming about the violence singer Chris Brown allegedly inflicted on singer Robyn “Rihanna” Fenty, she didn’t say a word about Montel’s threat to blow a young woman up. But she’s no hypocrite, right?
Instead, she let him gab on forever about what a victim he is of multiple sclerosis, which I suppose gives him a free pass. And the phony Montel did what he does best, cry on command.
Here’s the video from right before the threat, which seems to back up the story, in addition to the witnesses to it:
Then, there’s Montel’s late-night hawking of cheap coins with Obama stickers on them, ripping naive buyers off. Because, you know, the gazillions he made from his now-canceled daytime TV minstrel show were simply not enough for this scumbag with giant diamond earrings.
They ordered some sets with the thought they were getting actual coins pressed by the U.S. Mint. What they got was 50-cent pieces with stickers plastered on one side of them. Four sets of the coins set them back $150 smackers. Hope and change, my ass.
And finally, there’s what this creep, Montel, said to me. I made the mistake of doing his show, twice. No, it wasn’t a “Who’s the Daddy?” show. We were supposed to be talking about politics, but it was basically a liberal gang-bang. Both times, he cried on command about how he’s an MS victim, and his tears were so phony, I thought they were liquified cubic zirconium.
I wrote about it the first time. The second time I insisted on being paid to appear. But it wasn’t worth it. Montel told me that my father was a bad doctor because he opposed socialized medicine a/k/a national health care and that he deserved to die.
Yup, this charlatan, this cretin, this sleazebag–Montel–is now the new darling of liberal talk radio.
Figures.
Maybe he can use it to pick up another stripper or airline stewardess to become his next wife.
***
I could attack how he got caught and Detroit Metro Airport with pot. But that’s a badge of honor with liberals.
Why is Oprah promoting him? Becuase he’s black. I’m DONE pretending that’s not the reason. It’s race. It’s racist. And it’s reality.
