Chris Wallace: Limbaugh a "very nice, very sweet and I'd have to say vulnerable guy"

Chris Wallace shows no journalistic integrity when he interviews Rush Limbaugh: "He's a very nice, very sweet and vulnerable"

By John Amato Monday Nov 02, 2009 1:00pm

Chris Wallace had a chance to prove to America that he actually has journalistic integrity and is not part of the Fox Sphere of phony reporting when he interviewed Rush Limbaugh on Fox News Sunday. What we got was FOX News #1, fair and balanced reporter acting like a bowl of jelly for Limbaugh's rants. During his post mortem of FNS, he topped his uninformative and ridiculous interview of Limbaugh thus way:

I just want to give you my reaction. First of all I had never met him. Very nice, very sweet and I've have to say vulnerable guy and if you watch the interview you'll see because he talks very candidly about drug rehab...

Wow, is Wallace this dimwitted? Rush is doing a major interview with FNS and he's shocked, shocked I tell you that he's such a sweet guy. Did Wallace want to date him or interview him? I couldn't tell, could you?

Chris Wallace has been a very vocal critic of the Obama administration and has even gone so far as to say that the White House is a big bunch of crybabies. Did you ever hear him ever say anything like that before of another administration?

When Anita Dunn called Fox News an arm of the Republican Party on CNN, that didn't make Wallace happy either.

Where did he and his wife go wrong?

[FiveGoodMen]

18. No kidding!

I'm so glad I don't have kids.

One reason: If I had any that turned into a puke I'd be sorry I had ever lived. And I'd be sorry I never killed the kid.

5. Chris Wallace?

I've seen dryer sheets with more character and backbone than he has. Why am I supposed to give a fuck what that tool says?

[Uncle Joe]

6. I wonder if FOX "News" will pay for Wallace's dry cleaning bill? n/t

8. puke

One can only assume that Wallace's life until now has been populated by some of the cruelest, most evil and ugliest creatures known to man.

9. Breaking News: Chris Wallace to have sex with Rush Limbaugh

Film at 11:00

ewwwww

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

13. First, Wallace has got to wear a diaper and suck a pacifier in a crib

to get Limbaugh in the mood.

10. Bet Wallace didn't ask: 'How'd the Viagra work out in the Dominican Republic, Rush?'

Without hearing the disgusting display of affection from Chris Wallace to the Reich's version of Tokyo Rose, I'be these also were left unasked:

"There's quite the sex tourism in the Dominican Republic, along with child prostitution."
"Did you know that, Rush?"
"Did you participate in that, Rush?"
"What was the deal with the Viagra in your luggage, Rush?"
"Are you still addicted to prescription narcotics, Rush?"

Where's the rest of Corporate McPravda on this? There are a lot of questions Rush needs to be asked in public and before a Grand Jury.

15. Chris Wallace is a well known idiot. nt

[DearAbby]

16. Yeah, Rush is a harmless little fuzzball

I'm gonna blow chunks here.

[NICO9000]

17. Maybe Limbaugh shares his Oxycontin with him?

Purely speculating here...

[deutsey]

19. It's all subjective, I guess. I happen to see him as a fat, drug-addicted, hate-mongering,

ideological slob.

To each his own, I suppose.

20. Truth Is Rushbo Can Be Charming...

I interviewed him back in 1988...right after his network swillfest began. When we were off the air and talking "biz" (radio), he was not only charming but very friendly and funny. I'm sure others know someone is similar...when you talk anything but politics, you can find a lot of common ground and even have a good friendship. It's not unusual for a person to act one way behind the camera and then go in "the act" when the lights come on.

That doesn't dismiss the powder puff interview Wallace did or my absolute contempt for what Rushbo has done to political discourse and the radio industry.

Kinda similar to when you see a news report of a mass murderer and the neighbors seemed shocked..."he was such a nice and quiet guy"... Sociopaths tend to show several faces.

21. Is that cause Wallace took his viagra

and went to PR with Rush's group. I don't know just asking.

[winston61]

22. There is something wrong with that bastard (Limbaugh)

deep down inside. I see him and listen and get the creepy weepies. This sorry bastard needs help. He deserves no sympathy cause he's one of these assholes who's proud of it. Someone should interview his ex wives. But I bet they are locked down with money and non-disclosures.
