Ed Asner narrated a video for the California Federation of Teachers, which, among its images, had the 1% pissing on the rest of us.
Well, professional idiot Sean Hannity took offense, and he sent a producer to ambush interview Mr. Asner, who then offered to demonstrate the principal by pissing on the producer ::
Emmy Award-winning The Mary Tyler Show actor Ed Asner recently asked a Fox News producer if he could “piss on” him after he was confronted about a California Federation of Teachers video that showed cartoon rich people urinating on poor people.
Fox News host Sean Hannity and other conservative pundits first began attacking Asner on Tuesday after the animated ad that he narrated appeared on the federation’s website to explain how rich people used tax evasion, tax loopholes and tax cuts to become even richer.
On Wednesday, Hannity announced that he had sent an ambush producer out to confront the “left-wing Hollywood actor” outside his job at a New York City theater over the “disgusting hit piece.”
“I don’t remember a thing I said on it or a word I said on it,” Asner told the producer. “But I agreed to do it for California teachers. I approve this message.”
“There’s a part of it where talking about things trickling down and they have like rich people peeing on poor people,” the producer explained.
“How disgusting,” the actor snarked. “It should be reversed.”
“So you don’t remember that?” the producer pressed.
“Do you have any money?” Asner later asked.
“Ah, yeah,” the producer replied.
“Can I piss on you?” the actor quipped.
Heh.
