‘Your mic is hot!’: Sean Hannity screams for Geraldo to stop insulting Bernie during victory speech

[UCmeNdc]

Fox News host Sean Hannity had to warn Geraldo Rivera on Tuesday that his microphone was still live and that the public was hearing insults he was uttering during Bernie Sanders’ victory speech.

After Sanders won the West Virginia Democratic primary on Tuesday night, Fox News host Sean Hannity announced that he would briefly air some of the candidate’s victory speech live.

“He’s so annoying,” Rivera complained as the broadcast cut to Sanders. “This guy is so annoying.”

“Your mic is hot!” Hannity exclaimed. “What are you saying?”

“That he’s so annoying,” Rivera repeated. “And people that think that his supporters go to Donald Trump are smoking dope.”

1. Well

He got the second part right.

More annoying than Bush for 8 years?! Not possible.

2. I'm shocked, SHOCKED! that FAUX NUZE does not like Bernie Sanders

[redwitch]

3. Geraldo is still around?

Talk about annoying!

[CentralMass]

[peace13]

25. Ya, it's a class act!

12. LOL

[Bad Dog]

5. That's nothing.

It doesn't matter what Geraldo says, he's not going to spark a diplomatic incident.

David Cameron has described Nigeria and Afghanistan as "fantastically corrupt" in a conversation with the Queen.

The PM was talking about this week's anti-corruption summit in London.

"We've got some leaders of some fantastically corrupt countries coming to Britain... Nigeria and Afghanistan, possibly the two most corrupt countries in the world," he was overheard saying.

Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, elected last year after vowing to fight corruption, said he was "shocked".

And a senior Afghan official said the characterisation was "unfair".

After Mr Cameron's comments, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby intervened to say: "But this particular president is not corrupt... he's trying very hard," before Speaker John Bercow said: "They are coming at their own expense, one assumes?"

The conversation took place at Buckingham Palace at an event to mark the Queen's 90th birthday, attended by political leaders and other public figures.

At a garden party later on Tuesday, the Queen herself was caught on camera making unguarded comments about the Chinese government.

The Queen has been filmed saying Chinese officials were "very rude" during last year's state visit by President Xi Jinping.

She was discussing their treatment of Britain's ambassador to China with a senior police officer at a Buckingham Palace garden party on Tuesday.

It came after David Cameron was overheard saying Afghanistan and Nigeria were "fantastically corrupt".

Buckingham Palace said the Chinese visit had been "extremely successful".

The invitation to President Xi was part of the government's policy of courting Chinese investment.

The Queen's remarks were filmed as she was introduced to Metropolitan Police Commander Lucy D'Orsi, who the monarch is told had overseen security during President Xi's visit to the UK in October.

She is heard to respond: "Oh, bad luck."

An official went on to tell the Queen that Commander D'Orsi had been "seriously, seriously undermined by the Chinese, but she managed to hold her own and remain in command".

Commander D'Orsi told the Queen: "I was the Gold Commander so I'm not sure whether you knew, but it was quite a testing time for..."

"I did," the Queen said.

Commander D'Orsi continued: "It was at the point they walked out of Lancaster House and told me that the trip was off, that I felt..."

The Queen said: "They were very rude to the ambassador."

Commander D'Orsi replied: "They were... it was very rude and undiplomatic I thought."

The Queen described it as "extraordinary".

6. Geraldo Rivera calling someone annoying is like Sarah Palin accusing people of incoherence.

[silvershadow]

7. Duzy! nt

[Lizzie Poppet]

15. *golf clap*

[chwaliszewski]

8. You mean this Geraldo?

[Art_from_Ark]

14. Still looking for Al Capone's secret stash, no doubt

[pdsimdars]

21. I was actually watching the show that day.

He had Neo Nazis on the show and they were getting a little testy back and forth and one of them called Geraldo Jerry Rivers and all hell broke loose. It is a name some say he was born with but snopes say not so.
Birth Name Gerald Michael Riviera
Nickname Jerry

[frylock]

38. You're all mixed up like pasta primavera. Yo why'd you throw that chair at Geraldo Rivera, man?

[Thinkingabout]

10. Hey Geraldo, under the bus you go!

[hellofromreddit]

20. That's not what 'under the bus' is for

Under the bus if for people who had respect and then lost it for some faux pas.

Geraldo's just an asshole doing typical asshole stuff.

[Thinkingabout]

31. Maybe in your world but not in mine, here are a couple of defininations for you

Visiting ThrowUnder.com to sacrifice some other person, usually one who is undeserving or at least vulnerable, to make personal gain.


throw under the bus

to sacrifice some other person, usually one who is undeserving or at least vulnerable, to make personal gain.

He'd throw his mother under the bus if it'd mean he could beat the rap.

[hellofromreddit]

36. Your definition supports what I wrote and not what you wrote.

"usually one who is undeserving or at least vulnerable" does not apply to Geraldo.

[Thinkingabout]

37. You have not convinced me, I am not the one throwing those like Geraldo under the bus,

you need to spread the word for those who throws them under the bus.

[m-lekktor]

23. geez, do you Hillary people even THINK before you blurt out the overused and tired memes?

one has to originally LIKE somebody before they get tossed under the bus and I doubt Sanders people are big Geraldo fans!

[BlindTiresias]

28. You keep using that phrase

I do not think it means what you think it means.

[Thinkingabout]

29. Maybe in your world, but when I read comments made by whoever an see negative comments

Following, yes it is time to use the under the bus comment.

[VulgarPoet]

11. Screw the both of them,

although I have to agree with Geraldo's assessment of Sanders supporters. The sheer idea that one of us could pivot to supporting Trump is stupid enough to give me a goddamn aneurysm.

[Ash_F]

13. Rivera later says that Trump will go for the "Hip hop" vote with Black men

He doesn't know what he is saying.

[frylock]

40. I hear the kids really like RUN DMC.

[Lizzie Poppet]

16. "Your mic is hot. Your career, on the other hand..."

[apnu]

17. Well he's right on one point, that Sanders supporters will not go for Trump.

That's a fiction I hear pushed around here a lot. Every poster that says so I suspect is a right-wing op. chaos troll.

Every Bernie supporter I've met IRL or online, is deeply opposed to Trump. Not one has shown any hint of supporting Trump in the GE. Some say they'll write in Bernie, some say they'll stay home, and some say they'll vote Clinton, if only to deny Trump.

[chwaliszewski]

18. I'm kinda like Goldilocks...

The Trump porridge is too hot, the Clinton porridge is too cold, the Sanders porridge is just right.

[apnu]

22. I voted for Sanders too.

But I'll back Hillary in the GE. Better a canidate that agrees with Bernie 93% of the time and actually knows what she's doing than Trump who's got no idea what he's doing and his plans will actually destroy us.

[ohheckyeah]

19. I agree he's so

Annoying. I don't want to listen to him for years.

[Actor]

26. He is, I agree...Very annoying

He keeps annoying people with facts like how insanely fucked up our situation is as to income inequality, lack of affordable healthcare and education

The most annoying motherfucker of all time.

Also the most honest and accurate.

[ohheckyeah]

27. LOL

Nice try. We already knew about income inequality, need for affordable education, lack of healthcare. His supporters act like it's amazing he pointed out the obvious. I could have done that. I'm honest and accurate about what the problems are.

[chwaliszewski]

33. I know what you mean.

I find Clinton & Trump both annoying.

[ohheckyeah]

34. Own his

Faults, instead of trying to ddeflect it off Hillary.

[Fawke Em]

39. Bernie's accent is endearing.

Hillary's screech is mind-numbing.

I have to keep my thumb on the car volume to even listen to the news if they have a ship from her on. She makes my eyeballs rattle.

[frylock]

42. It's not so much a screech as it is a monotonous, nasally drone at high volume.

[Kang Colby]

30. I agree with Geraldo somewhat.

Never thought I'd say that. I also find Bernie's speeches annoying...Bernie's voice and incessant yammering give me a headache. Yacking about nothing as mom used to say.

No disrespect meant towards his supporters, I just do find his oratory style annoying.

[Fawke Em]

41. And I find hers like fingernails on a chalkboard.

Remember that woman who had a seizure listening to Mary Hart? I feel just a bit like that when I hear Hillary.

[Kang Colby]

43. haha...that's awful.

But I appreciate the humor.

[bjo59]

32. Poor old Geraldo Rivera... a shadow of his long, long, long ago former self. Such a putz.

[Sunlei]

35. staged for fox TV.
