FOX News Pundit: "Celebrities Who Criticize America While Abroad Should “Re-Apply” For Visa To Come Back"

Hannity & Colmes did some PR last night (12/4/06) for a new FOX News “pundit,” Greg Gutfeld, host of a “web show” on FOXNews.com. Gutfeld was obviously trying to make a good impression by showing off just how snide and mean-spirited he could be, sort of an Ann Coulter wannabe without the glassy eyes – at least as far as I could tell. Like Coulter, he seemed to be his own biggest fan, and delighted in his own malice, even when it made no sense.

The excuse for rolling out Gutfeld on prime time was an attack on actress Gwyneth Paltrow for making what Sean Hannity called “anti-American” remarks, as quoted by the European press. The TV screen showed those remarks: “The British are much more intelligent and civilized than the Americans. I love the English lifestyle… I’m not as capitalistic as America. Peole talk about interesting things at dinner – not about work and money.”
