Fox News’ token liberal host Bob Beckel is known for dropping the occasional racial slur on-air and for expressing some rather old-fashioned views on women.
So of course, Beckel delivered Wednesday on Fox’s “The Five” as the hosts discussed a viral anti-catcall video.
An anti-street harassment organization called Hollaback! posted a PSA this week that captures the catcalls one woman received while walking the streets of New York City for 10 hours in nothing fancier than jeans and a T-shirt. Rape threats against the woman in the video started appearing in the video’s YouTube comments soon after.
Co-hosts Eric Bolling and Greg Gutfeld said they thought the majority of the recorded catcalls weren’t disrespectful, but they agreed that one “terrible” man who followed around the woman in the video for several minutes was probably guilty of harassment.
Beckel’s contribution to the discussion, however, was less constructive.
“She got 100 catcalls, let me add 101,” he chimed in. “Damn, baby, you’re a piece of woman.”

And watch the original anti-street harassment video:
?!?!?!!?!?!
Why are most of these people on television at all much less reappearing over and over?
Clearly the piece of Beckel has run out of thoughts and words.
Because, the Murdoch propaganda machine employs Beckel to represent “liberalism.” So he acts like a boorish pig so that the dimwits watching use their reliably bigoted tendencies to paint everyone “liberal” with the Beckel stereotype.
Works like a charm!
EDIT: He used “piece of woman” because clearly he couldn’t say “piece of ass” on air. But the beer-swilling, spouse-beating, chain-smoking, NASCAR-watching, dog-kicking morons and their husbands know exactly what he meant.
Damn, dude, you’re a piece of shit.
Omg, I had no idea this guy was their token liberal until today!
unfreakingbelievable!
exactly right re beckel… he hasn’t been active in democratic politics for years; and was a failure at that. then that unfortunate little incident with the hookers permanently sealed the deal that he’d end up as a fox employee representing democrats.
