RUSH: Samantha C.\u2019s low-rated TBS show cannot afford to lose another advertiser. Her ratings, they practically don\u2019t exist.<\/a> This woman should have been canceled long ago if these numbers are right. Year to date, Samantha C.\u2019s Nielsen ratings are down 34% among adults 18 to 49. That\u2019s the prime demo. In terms of total viewers, she\u2019s down 30% year over year. That is significant, and the story here says that one more sponsor lost and it\u2019s over.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I walked in today, Snerdley was in tears — practically in tears — \u2019cause he had finished reading the stuff about Samantha C. He said, “It\u2019s just is so unfair. I just can\u2019t… I just can\u2019t get…” I said, “What are you talking…?” He said, “You remember the Sandra Fluke stuff? You were telling a joke, okay, one bad word and then the whole damn liberal establishment starts saying you gotta get fired and thrown off the air and blah, blah, and here this woman calls Ivanka Trump and everybody circles the wagons to defend her!” He\u2019s just livid, and he\u2019s right. He had a point. He had a point. But, Snerdley, I\u2019m the No. 1 nemesis. I have been for 30 years. Nothing\u2019s gonna every ever change that, unless I became one of them, which I… It\u2019s impossible to do.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s see. Sean in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Great to have you. How you doing, sir? Open Line Friday.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Rush, it\u2019s great to be on the show. Yeah. On the topic of Samantha Bee that\u2019s not my exact question —<\/p>\n

RUSH: No. Samantha C.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Absolutely.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Samantha C.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Samantha C. This double standard in the media, I mean, Roseanne makes a comment that is treated with termination. Why isn\u2019t this person being terminated as well, especially due to the fact that her comment is directed directly at the first daughter?<\/p>\n

\"\"RUSH: Yeah, there\u2019s other things too. Roseanne made her comment in a tweet, not on the show, not on the air, not as an ABC employee. Samantha C., on the other hand, wrote those words. Those words were in the teleprompter. Samantha C.\u2019s show is taped, meaning they wanted it to air that way. It wasn\u2019t accidental. It wasn\u2019t a slip of the tongue. It wasn\u2019t, “Oh. Gosh. I didn\u2019t mean to say that.” She meant to say it. They wrote it. They probably had meetings about it.<\/p>\n

\"\"They put it on her teleprompter, and they taped the show with her comments about Ivanka. I saw the photo of Ivanka with her son that set these people off. You remember what they said? (paraphrased) “That photo is an insult, that photo is… They\u2019re jamming white privilege right down everybody\u2019s throat!” Folks, they are sick. White privilege for the woman and her son? It was Ivanka holding her son and they\u2019re meeting foreheads and she\u2019s obviously being deeply affectionate with her little boy. There\u2019s nothing offensive about it at all.<\/p>\n

Yet a photo like that can set these people off? They may be leftists and they may be liberals, but I\u2019ll tell you what they are is pure, raw hatred. This Samantha C., by the way, it turns out this is not unusual for her. She\u2019s had, I think, one other racy comment about Ivanka and many other — not quite to this level, but many other — insulting comments about other people, conservatives and so forth. Her title of her show is Full Frontal, of course, which is a reference to nudity (which doesn\u2019t happen, thank goodness).<\/p>\n

But, man, when you see the photo… The very idea that that photo could set these people off and be called an example of white privilege and be interpreted as Ivanka Trump lauding something over people? They\u2019re gone! These people are… It is impossible to relate them, to understand them. They\u2019re just… They\u2019ve lost their minds.<\/p>\n

There was nothing offensive about the picture at all. But when Samantha C. looked at it, she, her writing team, they look at this and say, “Oh, man! This is a great opportunity to jam President Trump over his immigration policy separating families.” It\u2019s not his policy. This dates back, I think, to the Obama years. But I wouldn\u2019t label it at the feet of Obama. There\u2019s a reason why it happens. And we\u2019re talking about illegals here. But these people pick it up as a cudgel to use against Trump. But it\u2019s just plain sick to have that picture trigger this kind of reaction. These are the people that are not normal. I\u2019m telling you. This is abnormality squared.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
