2000

MRC's latest Gumbel ad in the July 13 New York Post and The Washington Times.

CyberAlert, July 12: Gumbel’s "What a f***ing idiot" blast: FNC’s Hannity & Colmes enlarged the video and went frame by frame; Cal Thomas suggested "it reveals a deeply-held perspective"; and Capitol Hill Blue insisted Mark McEwen was Gumbel’s actual target.

Bozell column, July 4: Bryant Gumbel and the Christian Bashing System

CyberAlert, June 30: A CBS camera seemed to have caught a disgusted Bryant Gumbel blurting out "What a fucking idiot" just after wrapping up a hostile interview with Robert Knight of the Family Research Council about how the Boy Scouts exclude gays.

CyberAlert, June 28: Bryant Gumbel hoped he and his fellow New Yorkers get a two-for-one deal: Hillary, plus her husband’s "expertise."

CyberAlert, June 7: National Enquirer headline: "Matt Lauer and Bryant Gumbel’s Wild Night with Drag Queens." But it’s not made up. They published photos of a bare-chested Gumbel getting a lap dance from a he/she.

CyberAlert, May 22: Bryant Gumbel tried to discredit the NRA’s jump in membership and demanded the NRA’s Wayne LaPierre respond to the Million Mom March. But, a week earlier before that march, Gumbel pressed organizers from the left about not going far enough.

CyberAlert, May 15: Bryant Gumbel lamented: "Why are you only focusing on licensing and registration?...Why aren't you going for example for a total ban?" Congress won’t do anything about guns, though "we all hope for the best."

CyberAlert, May 3: Bryant Gumbel: "As the former head of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev was widely hailed as the man who brought an end to the Cold War....These days he is...trying to find solutions to the world's environmental problems."

CyberAlert, April 25: CBS’s Bryant Gumbel asked what hearings about the Elian raid would "accomplish besides just so much Reno bashing?"

CyberAlert, April 17: Bryant Gumbel rejected the idea that Cuban-American civil disobedience is analogous to the civil rights movement and noting how Cuban-Americans charge Castro with exploiting Elian, demanded if that’s "any less reprehensible" than what they have done. Gumbel also called the Elian video "the most disgusting thing I've ever seen," rued how a kid from Haiti would have been returned immediately and charged that the Miami relatives "don't care about" Elian. But few Early Show viewers heard the comments.

CyberAlert, March 22: Bryant Gumbel mused about the appeal of a third term for Bill Clinton.

CyberAlert, February 21: To the idea that historians voted Reagan the best President, Bryant Gumbel dropped his pen, "No!"
