Cavanaugh-Gasparino Rematch on Fox Biz: Thursday 11:40 Eastern

Reason Staff | 3.30.2011 11:21 PM

Charlie Gasparino is madder than Ru Paul locked in a Men's Wearhouse as his jihad against banking analyst Meredith Whitney continues to go nowhere.

The other day, Reason Senior Editor Tim Cavanaugh got shanghaied into Gasparino's war on Whitney, and explained why beating up on one woman won't make the truly awful news in the muni bond market go away.

Gasparino insists on a rematch.

Time: Thursday 11:40 AM Eastern time, 8:40 Pacific.

Place: Fox Business News.

Gasparino's effort to keep attention focused on Whitney's 2010 comments about municipal defaults has been very energetic, and it has brought in his Fox Biz colleagues. Here's a video of the all-stars trying, with no success at all, to get Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-North Carolina) interested in serving Whitney with a subpoena. Watch at 2:13 for another appearance of the bond-fund performance chart that purportedly shows Whitney's comments causing a market crash, but that, as astute commenter Joshua Corning pointed out the other day, actually does not show this at all:

        Menstrual psychosis has the following characteristics: a) acute onset, against a background of normality; b) brief duration, with full recovery; c) psychotic features: confusion, stupor and mutism, delusions, hallucinations, or a manic syndrome; d) a circa-mensual (approximately monthly) periodicity, in rhythm with the menstrual cycle.

  1. Episiarch 13 years ago
    
    It’s a moral position and I stand by it.
    I didn’t get a chance to ask you in the thread earlier today, but why do you carry a gun that weighs 23+ oz? Don’t you find it annoying?
    1. rather 13 years ago
      
      Epi has morals-how cute!
      1. Rather Retarded 13 years ago
        
        I have a moral: All men are small dick boys who can’t compare to Daddy.
    2. Warty 13 years ago
      
      Not really. A decent gun belt does wonders to distribute the weight. Like one of theirs.
      Of course, I am a giant stalking the earth and I laugh at weights less than a quarter ton.
      1. Episiarch 13 years ago
        
        That looks pretty comfortable, but I often carry in my coat or in a pocket. I cannot emphasize enough how insanely light my Kel-Tec is. It’s like it’s not even there. And the P32 is 2 oz lighter. You really have to hold one, fully loaded, to properly grasp how light it is.
        I bought it as a summer gun, but it’s just so unobtrusive that it’s going into full rotation.

        As brutal as one would expect from a gun that light. It’s not exactly fun to shoot. Your hand will pay to a certain extent.

interesting one
John 13 years ago

I am onboard for any TV show that features Meredith Whitney as long as it involves her taking off her clothes.
Otto 13 years ago

No point in being polite with Gasparino, Tim. The second he tries to talk over you, yell at him to shut up and call him an idiot for not noticing Joshua’s point about the graph. The next time he tries, scream that he can’t read a graph, and call him an idiot again. Repeat until he realizes that his stupidity will be on display every time he attempts to bulldoze you.
P Brooks 13 years ago

Actually, the most effective technique I have seen for ending the “talking-out-of-turn” gambit is to calmly put your finger to your lips and go, “Shhhh.”
I once saw it used in such a way that I literally thought the guy on the receiving end was going to have a stroke right then and there.
1. Spoonman. 13 years ago
  
  This would be excellent. Yelling just brings you down to their level.
2. Otto 13 years ago
  
  Good point. I still think that calling Gasparino a moron while bringing his stupidity out into the open would be a worthwhile thing to do, though.

Gasparino insists on a rematch.
What, with himself? I don’t recall him actually talking to Tim last time. How is it a ‘contest’ when Gasperino says, ‘you’re not even qualified to talk about this; go read a book or something’? (fair paraphrase)
Walt 13 years ago

Well, that was worthless.
P Brooks 13 years ago

Drat- missed it.
I assume Gasparino was his usual huffing and puffing content-free self.
P Brooks 13 years ago

calling Gasparino a moron while bringing his stupidity out into the open would be a worthwhile thing to do, though.
I find it hard to believe anybody doesn’t already know Gasparino is a moron.
But I have been wrong before.

They cut them off after like a minute, what an abortion.
