Geraldo Rivera - who has a new book coming out, "His Panic: Why Americans Fear Hispanics in the U.S." - was booked to appear on Nancy Grace's CNN show on Feb. 28. But then he was disinvited and told CNN had "a blanket boycott" against anyone from Fox. " 'The Most Trusted Name in News' just chickened out," Rivera told Page Six. "This reveals a corporate insecurity."

rivera is only relevant to the mindless drones who watch fox, and they are as soul-less as he is

I forget who said this, but it seems to be more apt today than when I first heard it, 20 years ago: "NASA ought to launch Geraldo into space, to test the effect of weightlessness on weightlessness". Old 'Gerry Rivers' is still carrying the flag for douchebag talking heads everywhere.

23/6 has featured Jerry or Geraldo in their encylcopedia of dicks; I think. My Altzheimers is a nuisance till my meds kick in.

Yes, Whoredildo, you have a stupendous and frightening intellect. You are SOOOO scary good. All the news stations CAN'T BELIEVE they let you slip between their fingers. All women want you, and all guys want to be like you. YOU ARE A GOD, and we tremble in your presence. Pbbbbtttt! Yeah right! They don't want you because you and the station you work for lack credibility. Period. Ponderous ass.

I think you summed it up nicely. Race has nothing to do with it, he is simply an arrogant, narcissistic douchebag with nothing relevent to contribute whatsoever.... I am sure that CNNs refusal to air him reflects that general opinion throughout the news media. They aren't afraid of him, they simply don't respect him enough to bother.
He does nothing but grandstand and posture and he certainly couldn't hack it in a warzone...

They were proablay afraid you would try to find the titanic and open a sunken safe on the show and it is filled with muck or that you would go looking for Al Capone's cave and find nothing in it. Or maybe they were concerned you would start drawing detailed invasions plans in the sand. Any one of the above would make most sane people afraid of being associated with you in fear that would get a lable of being irrelevent.

How about a reality show where Geraldo beats the shit out of Bill-O every day.

Do you know what this lowlife did the other day?...

He "reported" on his "gut feeling" that the missing Peterson woman had run off [with another man], and to illustrate his absolute belief, he held up a photo of her (and a female friend) sitting at a bar which he mocked up by imposing his face onto that of a male in the background. Laughing, he said, "that's how sure I am she's not dead".

How fucked is that ?

Geraldo is still looking for Al Capone's secret vault.

Geraldo should replace Mathews, he would be so much better.

Uh, no they realized "Geraldo at Large" was a big blow hard and decided you weren't worth their time and besides Paris Hilton became available...

I quit listening to Geraldo and his nonsense about the same time it dawned on me that Fox news was a partisan latrine.
Geraldo is irrelevant and struggling the same way Coulter and Limbaugh and the rest of the nutcases are.
Geraldo is a lousy reporter/journalist, his is narcissitic in the classic sense, and his presence on TV is more than enough to get me to turn it off...
And I am certain that I am not the only one who thinks so...
