Story of the day - Blame Canada...

If you don't know who Greg Gutfeld is, first off, you're pretty much better off. Besides looking constipated 100% of the time, Gutfeld is a perennially dumped editor (from Men's Health, Prevention, Stuff (where he was let go supposedly for a stunt involving midgets), and Maxim UK) and wannabe comedian whose shtick is apparently to out-Dennis Miller Dennis Miller. That's like trying to be the most annoyingly verbose psycho-beggar on the subway. After conning Arianna Huffington to be a blogger at her site, he proceeded just like his previous employers to piss everyone off and go running to the sagging bosom of Fox News (which is really just Roger Ailes' moobs).

Having a faux-comedy-news show on Fox has been tried before, so they let Gutfeld try to ape Bill Maher in a "no-hold-barred" shitfest called Red Eye. Ordinarily, all this information is totally useless, except this dickweed managed to create a little stir where he, with the help of Doug Benson, who is supposed to be funny because he's an unattractive perpetual stoner, decided to deride the Canadian armed forces helping the United States in Afghanistan. Really.



Nice timing. This came on the day that Canada received four of its fallen soldiers home. Money quote: "Meaning, the Canadian military wants to take a breather to do some yoga, paint landscapes, run on the beach in gorgeous white Capri pants". DICK-LESS.

This caused ripples up to the Canadian military, where Defense Minister Peter McKay responded that

It's crass, it's insensitive, it's in fact disgusting given the timing where Canada is just receiving back four fallen heroes here at CFB Trenton.

..as well as demanding an apology from Fox News.

Well, the tepid apology came...

Gutfeld said the five-minute spot "was in no way an attempt to make light of troop efforts."

"However, I realize that my words may have been misunderstood. It was not my intent to disrespect the brave men, women and families of the Canadian military, and for that I apologize. Red Eye is a satirical take on the news, in which all topics are addressed in a lighthearted, humorous and ridiculous manner."

Douchebag, we all know that if you say "misunderstood", you're not really sorry.

and to prove it, Gutfeld had to Twitter like a 12 year old girl (that he is).....

My apologies to the Canadian military, they probably could at least beat the Belgians.

Classy. Remind me to call your mom to get your balls back.
