Very cute, Ellen. That good ole 1-2 punch. But your left hand, your left hand -- was it headed for a retaliatory grab? I guess we'll never know since he tossed you aside before you completed your move, will we? He musta' seen it comin'!
Great segment!
Chris Matthews is such a stupid douche. I loved watching Jon Stewart just RIP HIM APART on the Daly Show.
HA! In your face, Matthews!
Go,Ellen! Go,Ellen! Go,Ellen!
Question for Chris Matthews:
Was it a hard ball?
Ellen should have kicked Matthews in his hard balls.
Wow, so many takes, so many agendas. Everyone from homophobes to angry gays, to Mathews haters. Everyone seems certain that it validates their preconceptions.
IMO you're making too much of this folks.
Why not give the benefit of the doubt?
How about seeing it as an awkward accident ?
I guess Chris Matthews must be a hard core Trekkie. Why do I say this? There's a famous blooper real from the original Star Trek series and there is a clip where the actors pretend the ship is being rocked back and forth by explosions. Dr. McCoy (Deforest Kelley) and Nurse Chapel (Majel Barrett) are in the sick bay going back and forth. He does the same breast grab from behind that Chris does. See it for yourself: http://www
Hey, Tina Fey, listen up! Now THAT was funny!!!!
silly. It was an accident. People can do nothing anymore without receiving over the top amounts of criticism.
I was pretty uncomfortable the first time I saw it. Matthews is just as graceful cutting the rug as he is behind the desk.
Hate that tool.
Ellen's metamorphosis into a 16-year-old boy proceeds nicely, though.
Lezzy's dont have breast...j
That's such an ignorant thing to say. Your parents must be so proud.
This is the same person who said that the fact that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt gave more than $8 million to charity in 2006 and could use it as a tax deduction takes away from the "goodness of the giver".
Apparently, ignorance abounds for "SlippingInTheDip".
Because Chris Matthews grabbed her breast? Get real. As if that's the first man to grab her tit.
A number of years ago, I was hiking with a young woman up a very steep ascent, she lost her
balance, and I instantly steadied her, to keep her from falling. She accused me of copping a
feel, when my only concern was to keep her from what could have been a really nasty spill. I do
think, after seeing the videos of the event, that all Chris Mathews was doing, was trying to avoid
a fall. Sometimes, hands don't land on the best spots, when one is instantly reacting. I think
both Hardball and the Degeneres show have made light of an incident, that we should laugh at.
The Degeneres show IS making light of it. Didn't you hear the audience laughing?
I love everyone here responding as if Ellen was seriously planning a sexual harrassment suit.
For god sake, the woman is a Dyke. Grabbing her breast is not sexual for either him or her. If he wanted to cop a feel he certainly would not waste his time trying to do her. That woman is creepy. I would not like to be left in a closed room or in a dark alley with her around. Yech!!!!
Just because it wasn't sexual doesn't mean it wasn't an assault. Or a battery for that matter.
cylindar: What a homophobic tool you are! That Dyke has done more to contribute to the lives of others than you will earn in your entire life. And I am sure she is happier with who she is as a fearless woman than you will ever be with your putrid, hateful, smallness.
Ellen was a good sport about it and made the kind of fun of it that the experience deserved. I'd say that Chris Matthews is a tool, but really, he's an oddly mixed bag of tools.
A seriously paranoid homophobe who lacks the slightest sense of humor. What a charming combination.
Yes, because lesbians are NEVER raped or otherwise sexually assaulted by men, didn't you know? It wouldn't be "sexual" for the male attacker.
Thank you Chris and Ellen -- I don't know when I've laughed so hard.
Eeeeeeeew. If it had happened to me, I would have probably scrubbed my right breast with acetone... This guy is a true pig, it's not the first time he acts like one.
