Mel Gibson Asshole VIDEO: Actor Calls WGN Interviewer 'Asshole'


First Posted: 4/14/10 Updated: 5/25/11

During an interview to promote his new movie, "Edge of Darkness," Mel Gibson became visibly irritated with the WGN host for his questions about his personal struggles in the past (drinking problems, accusations of antisemitism).

Gibson repeatedly said that he's moved on from these things, which occurred over four years ago, growing more annoyed as the host keeps prodding. As the interview ends, it seems Gibson believes his mic is off, and he loudly calls the host an "asshole." The mic was still live, and the reporter heard it.
