I'm not sure the right playing the role of the paparazzi is the best way to get your point across.

[Xavier_Onassis]

Chris tries to avoid this guy, and the guy keeps on pestering him.
After that, all we really know is that the camera moves around a lot.

Where is it written that any celebrity must give an interview to a dork with a camera at any time?

[BT]

well you have that as well as you really don't know what was edited.

I'm simply questioning the wisdom of the tactic.

[Xavier_Onassis]

I agree that the tactic is stupid.

The film that resulted from this was also stupid.

If it was edited, it was edited in such a way as to make the one who made it look stupid.

The obvious goal was to make Chris Rock look stupid, and it did not accomplish that.

Chris Rock is not running for office. A celebrity is not an elected official. He has a right to say whatever he wishes and to say nothing when approached by some fool with a camera. It won't lose him fans, after all.

Mel Gibson would probably disagree.

[Xavier_Onassis]

Mel Gibson lost popularity because of constant public drunkenness and ranting, not because of paparazzi interviews by morons.

He is still very good at making films, though. Better than Darryl Zanuck and Samuel Goldwyn. And so are a lot more of those in the business.

Chris Rock is also a good actor and a great comedian.

Apocalypto was terrific. Passion  of the Christ clearly accomplished what he wanted to to, but I personally found it to be unwatchable. At least after seeing it once, I will never watch it again. Ugh!

Chris Rock is not running for office. A celebrity is not an elected official.
He has a right to say whatever he wishes

Sure he does and other's have the right to expose the hypocrisy of the Hollywood Left Elite:
 
"Bono traipses around the globe demanding that Western governments ram more down the Third World hole, while he goes out of way to shelter the money made from his music royalties. This senior citizen, stubble-faced rocker's entire image is branded around social justice and African debt relief with your money, and yet with his own personal finances, he does everything possible to ensure it's not taxed.

Bon Jovi: All this time we thought he was just some cheeseball rocker from the 80s. Little did we know that he's a bee farmer. That's right, by classifying himself as a bee famer he's able to write off 98 percent of his property taxes.

Bruce Springsteen decries "a policy of large tax cuts, on the one hand, and cuts in services to those in the most dire conditions, on the other" yet by being a fake farmer as well, the working-class zero Springsteen is making a mint by robbing New Jersey of the antipoverty program funds he says they desperately need.

Barbara Streisand harps about a "Global Warming Emergency" as she spends $22,000 a year watering her lawn and gardens. "Everyone has the power to make a difference," she writes as her concerts use thirteen 53-foot semi-trailers, four rental vans, and fourteen crew and band buses.

Harrison Ford is the chairman of a global conservation group, yet owns 7 airplanes and has stated, "I often fly up the coast for a cheeseburger." To prove what a global warming believer he truly is, he even got his chest waxed to portray the pain the environment feels when carbon dioxide is pumped in the air."

is the best way to get your point across.

it's one of many.....
and i think very effective in it's niche of exposing the Left

[Christians4LessGvt]

well you have that as well as you really don't know what was edited.

and you dont know whats edited at CBS News, NBC News, CNN, ect
or pretty much most news/TV stories.....but you sure wanna point it
out if it's attacks the Left uh?

[Xavier_Onassis]

Every news source is edited by deciding what to post and what to ignore. There is more going on in Delaware than could be reported in a day.

This particular incident was just stupid. It proved nothing about Chris Rock, other than he did not stand and talk on demand when some dork with a camera decided to pester him.

Does anyone have the right to demand that YOU comment spontaneously on any and every statement you have ever made at any moment at the whim of some fool with a camera?

Mentioning other networks is an example of the logical fallacy known as the "So's Yo' Momma" rebuttal.

[Christians4LessGvt]

This particular incident was just stupid. It proved nothing about Chris Rock,

Oh Chris Rock can spout racist slanderous charges,
but asking him about his slanderous accusations is somehow off limits?
Typical Leftist crap....
spew garbage & then pretend it's off limits to have to defend the garbage.
Just like Cindy Sheehan, Joe Wilson, Fluke, Michelle Obama, ect ect ect that
spew garbage but then claim/imply victim status when anyone criticizes them.

Mentioning other networks is an example of the logical fallacy known as the "So's Yo' Momma" rebuttal.

How so?
Why is ok to imply this video was edited....(and please provide any evidence of such)
but not ok to mention other media outlets edit video constantly to their liking?

[BT]

but you sure wanna point it out if it's attacks the Left uh?

Yeah that's it.

[Xavier_Onassis]

I did not imply that the silly video was edited. What I mean is that all stations and networks choose what items to run and what not to run. To say that this stupid thing is a clever attack on the left is justifiable because ABC, CBS whoever also posts videos, edited or not is irrelevant. It is a stupid video that i doubt even FOX would run, because Rock says nothing of significance and all there is at the end is just a chaotic blur.

To say that Network X  is justified in posting idiotic film clip A because Network Y posted idiotic film clip B is a "so's yo' Momma" argument. Both film clips are idiotic and neither should have been aired because that are idiotic. This is about logic, not Chris Rock.

Chris Rock is an actor and a comedian. he can say anything as he wishes. He can also refuse to talk to morons with videocams.

[Christians4LessGvt]

Both film clips are idiotic and neither should have been aired because that are idiotic.
This is about logic, not Chris Rock.

But you see you think something is idiotic if it doesn't support your Leftist control freak world view.
Because you think something is idiotic due to your bias does not make it so.
One thing great about this country and the internet is what you think should or should not be aired doesnt matter.

Chris Rock is an actor and a comedian. he can say anything as he wishes. He can also refuse to talk to morons with videocams.

And anyone can ask him about what he says, and if he cant defend his bullshit views
he can try and run and hide or he can threaten and throw a hissy fit and expose what
a mindless wussie he really is.
