Fox News Quickly Apologizes After Kid Rock Calls Joy Behar A "Bitch" on Live TV


Let's compare Kid Rock and Joy Behar. Double standard?

Kid Rock's fans in the audience cheered. Nobody is going to boycott his concerts over this.

Decrying "political correctness," Rock said live from Nashville, "People need to calm down, get a little less politically correct. And, I would say, you know, love everybody, except — I'd say screw that Joy Behar bitch. ... I mean lady. Lady."

"You cannot say that," Doocy told him immediately. "We apologize for that. Listen, she's just got a different point of view than you do."

Behar, as co-host of The View, has emerged as one of President Trump's biggest critics, while Kid Rock has appeared with Trump at the White House.

Behar finally apologized a month later.

Hostin said it’s “interesting” that former White House staffer Omarosa Manigault Newman recently said that Pence talks to Jesus and believes Jesus tells him things. Hostin said she is a “faithful” Catholic but doesn’t want her vice president “speaking in tongues.” Behar then said, “It’s one thing to talk to Jesus. It’s another thing when Jesus talks to you… that’s called mental illness.”

Bozell called the conversation a “serious problem,” while saying the comments were “insulting” to all Christians. He also detailed other examples of what he called a “disturbing trend” of ABC and “The View” insulting Christians.

“Make no mistake, the slurs against the vice president’s faith insult millions of Christians and are unacceptable. If there are no on-air apologies after this deplorable episode, Christians will tune out ABC programming across the board. And we will do our best to encourage it,” Bozell wrote.
