May 4, 20179 yr I think the word you are looking for is hypocritical. My opinion on the Left is solidified more each day by their hypocrisy. I hold everyone to the same standard, which is very high. If that is the standard then Trump and Colbert both need to be boycotted and fired for their remarks.
May 4, 20179 yr I think the word you are looking for is hypocritical. My opinion on the Left is solidified more each day by their hypocrisy. I hold everyone to the same standard, which is very high. Then aren't you being every bit as hypocritical as others? I mean you defended President Trump's every ridiculous comment during the election and now you're going after Colbert.
May 4, 20179 yr I think the word you are looking for is hypocritical. My opinion on the Left is solidified more each day by their hypocrisy. I hold everyone to the same standard, which is very high. No, I used the word I was looking for, PRESIDENT. If you hold everyone to a "very high" standard, then you've either been very disappointed with the garbage that has come out of President Trump's mouth, or you need to fire that hypocrisy rifle back at yourself.
May 4, 20179 yr Shouldnt CBS be held to a higher standard? Maybe so....I guess that's up to the advertisers and sponsors to decide.
May 4, 20179 yr Shouldnt CBS be held to a higher standard? Obscene, Indecent and Profane Broadcasts | Federal Communications Commission Federal law prohibits obscene, indecent and profane content from being broadcast on the radio or TV. That may seem clear enough, but determining what obscene, indecent and profane mean can be difficult, depending on who you talk to. In the Supreme Court's 1964 landmark case on obscenity and pornography, Justice Stewart Potter famously wrote: "I know it when I see it." That case still influences FCC rules today, and complaints from the public about broadcasting objectionable content drive the enforcement of those rules. In other words, if you "know it when you see it" and find it objectionable, you can tell the FCC and ask us to check into it. Deciding what's obscene, indecent or profane Each type of content has a distinct definition: Obscene content does not have protection by the First Amendment. For content to be ruled obscene, it must meet a three-pronged test established by the Supreme Court: It must appeal to an average person's prurient interest; depict or describe sexual conduct in a "patently offensive" way; and, taken as a whole, lack serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value. Indecent content portrays sexual or excretory organs or activities in a way that does not meet the three-prong test for obscenity. Profane content includes "grossly offensive" language that is considered a public nuisance. Factors in determining how FCC rules apply include the specific nature of the content, the time of day it was broadcast and the context in which the broadcast took place. Broadcasting obscene content is prohibited by law at all times of the day. Indecent and profane content are prohibited on broadcast TV and radio between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m., when there is a reasonable risk that children may be in the audience.
May 4, 20179 yr If that is the standard then Trump and Colbert both need to be boycotted and fired for their remarks. Kinda hard to fire the POTUS. I know many on the Left wish that wasn't so.
May 4, 20179 yr Then aren't you being every bit as hypocritical as others? I mean you defended President Trump's every ridiculous comment during the election and now you're going after Colbert. Wrong answer. I didn't defend all his comments. You have me confused with someone else. My support for President Trump was that he was a much better choice than Hillary.
May 4, 20179 yr No, I used the word I was looking for, PRESIDENT. If you hold everyone to a "very high" standard, then you've either been very disappointed with the garbage that has come out of President Trump's mouth, or you need to fire that hypocrisy rifle back at yourself. President Trump definitely has foot in mouth disease at times. If you can't see the hypocrisy from the Left on this, you choose not to.
May 4, 20179 yr President Trump definitely has foot in mouth disease at times. If you can't see the hypocrisy from the Left on this, you choose not to. And if you can't see your own hypocrisy, you choose not to as well.
May 4, 20179 yr If hypocrisy is expecting more from my President than I do a late night talk show host who's job depends on ratings, then I'll be a "liberal hypocrite."
May 4, 20179 yr And if you can't see your own hypocrisy, you choose not to as well. Point it out to me. I just said President Trump suffers from putting his foot in his mouth.
May 4, 20179 yr Point it out to me. I just said President Trump suffers from putting his foot in his mouth. I already have pointed it out... If you hold everyone to a "very high" standard, then you've either been very disappointed with the garbage that has come out of President Trump's mouth, or you need to fire that hypocrisy rifle back at yourself. So like I was saying before... Are you disappointed with how President Trump has handled himself throughout the election and so far during his term? If not, then you're a hypocrite. If yes, then how can you point out "Colbert's stupidity" here in this thread?
