It wasn't sexist, i wouldn't even say it was trashy, it was just goofy but also calculated to do exactly what it did. Cheers to Clay on that. Just stop whining that the host of a show doesn't let the guests run their program.

Is he trying to torpedo his chances at making regular appearances on TV?




He's going to get more chances because he will bring in viewers.

By CNN and Brook responding like they did "OMG NEVER OK!!!" it just validates everything Clay is about


it doesn't validate Clay one bit, it just makes Brook look uptight.

Clay is moderate democrat. And again, he wasn't the one stuck on the word or trying to "take over" the show.

I honestly don't think he was trying to do anything with this. It's one of his "mottoes" that he always says when he talks about the first amendment. The fact that only now is someone going nuts over it is the story.

I think a lot of people here will acknowledge that what he said was trashy and unprofessional (it was). They are laughing at the outrage over something that is nothing more than a sophomoric joke.

Sure it does

Clay is a buffoon, but he's a buffoon waging war on the absolute absurdity of progressivism in this country. He went on intending to show that, and he did.

for frick's sake, boobs dude. boobs.

It's as if the hypocrisy of the host saying she fully supports the 1st Amendment and free speech a minute before then cutting off speech she doesn't agree with washes completely over your head


it apparently has gone over your head because you clearly have no idea what the 1st amendment actually is or what free speech really means.

You can blame the left for that. If you need an example to show why people on the right are afraid for pc culture look no further than the lengths Ben Shapiro had to go to to have a simple speech in Berkley last night.

CNN is so offended that they already called me and asked if I could come back on Monday. Too perfect.

Yeah, going on to a "serious" news show and doing planned stunts SHOULD get you kicked off.


He literally said verbatim the same exact line on Headline News yesterday. A CNN network. He has also said it on Tucker Carlson's show. How is it a "planned stunt? I've heard him say it on his radio show at least 50 times this year.

he's a buffoon, she's uptight. I'm not on either of their "sides" and i reject the idea I have to choose between the uptight left or the dumb arse right.

Well it was by definition, censorship.

It is, however, not a free speech issue.

You're right I have no clue the 1st amendment protects people from oppression from their government. None at all.

Brooke Baldwin may be liberal as hell but I'd still totally smash while she talks about how she voted Obama proudly.

For the record, I believe in boobs, too.

However, unlike Clay, I have been let down by boobs a couple of times once they were turned loose.
