FOX News Host to Atheist: You Offended Me With Your Billboard So I’m Going to Laugh About the Murder of Your Group’s Founder

Even though the focus of the clip is on whether saying “Merry Christmas” is controversial, there was one moment that had nothing to do with that topic that made my jaw drop. It begins at the 5:14 mark:

Varney: … Madalyn Murray O’Hair…
Silverman: Madalyn Murray O’Hair founded American Atheists in 1963.
Varney: She was murdered, wasn’t she?
Silverman: Yes.
Varney: For her money!
Silverman: Yes.
Varney: What do you care. She’s dead, right?

Cut to Dave’s reaction:

Back to the conversation:


Varney: What do you care. She’s dead, right?
Silverman: Of course I care. How in the world can you say that? How in the world can you say that?! What a bigoted thing to say! That I don’t care about people dying because I’m an atheist?
Varney (talking over Silverman): Well, is it true–? Is it true–? Hold on a second. Is it– God forbid, I should offend you. No, Heaven forbid I should offend you. [Laughing]
Silverman: You should not offend anybody! You should try to not offend people. But that doesn’t mean–
Varney: [Laughing] See, I’ve got to! I’ve got to!
Silverman: You’re not letting me speak, and it does get to me…
Varney: [Laughing] But you offended me with your billboard!

I think Dave's face is permanently stuck like that.

Also, not that it doesn't deserve it, but this is the first time *I've* seen Hemant curse about it. I'm sure he's done it before, but it's certainly not often:

What the fuck sort of logic is that?!

I don't know, but someone needs to take "news" off that station.

I can't stand the whole war on Christmas bullshit myth that the social right likes to perpetrate. No Atheist is trying to get rid of your mangers or marry christmas's. Shut up and stop making things up.

Well sure. Anyplace that doesn't fudge their statistics is going to do them differently than Faux.

If Fox News didn't create shit like that to be outraged about, they wouldn't have anything to report on.

[Something completely different]

The german word for christmas is "Weihnachten" which pritty much means "Blessed night".


Probably one of the reasons why we never have such crazed and neurotic "debates" over the use of the term.

[Faith No More]

I have completely run out of insults for Fox News, as I have gone through my entire collection of them since the birth of their channel.

[Great Ape]

I've met Dave Silverman. He's a really nice guy. Obviously you can tell because he is very patient when handling these FOXnews cocksuckers. But anyway, I was just in awe of the level of disrespect these assholes showed Dave.

[Faith No More]

From what I've seen, Dave Silverman doesn't give very good interviews.

[Something completely different]

From what I have seen of him, I conclude that; he is deliberatly invited by "Fuchs Nachrichten" because he doesn`t seem to have the brain capabilities to counter the fox news pannelists attacks and "arguments"


Which is sad.

Because even a 12 year old knows how the tieds work.
