Celeb News: KTLA Anchor Goes OFF on Kardashians, Diane Sawyer, CNN

Espresso

Quote:

KTLA 5 News Anchor Sam Rubin is having none of it with the media circus surrounding Bruce Jenner’s upcoming interview with Diane Sawyer, ripping the award-winning journalist on-air for participating in the vapidity of the Kardashian media juggernaut.

"I don't care if Bruce Jenner is transitioning from one gender to another, one political party to another, one religion to another. What I do care about is that Jenner has been a passive participant in what can best be described as a cultural crime that has gone on for years."

Rubin ponders why an interview with Bruce Jenner merits two hours of airtime, regardless of whether he’s transitioning, switching political parties or religion.

Rubin also butchered CNN Senior Media Correspondent Brian Stelter’s comments after he called the Jenner interview, "(Sawyer’s) biggest scoop since stepping down from ABC’s World News last summer." Rubin lambasts Stelter, calling him an "idiot" and claiming that he only got his job because "of his uncanny physical resemblance to the man who hired him at CNN."

Though he didn't really need to go in on that Brian guy...

Dark Miracles

He's right.

Marvin

Not calling them "demons" though

I mean someone like Oprah would be better suited for that interview

KESTER

I feel like this is actually the one time where they should be talking about what is happening? No? Raising awareness for the transgender community?

He left no follicle.

All truth.

So...when is the interview?

My local entertainment correspondent better drag that trash! after Diane's embarrassing interview with my fave i neva liked her again!

But he did though...Diane stepped down from something fantastic to something terrible. WTF cares about Bruce Jenner, I'd rather have Diane interview someone who really warrants 2 hrs of Primetime TV.

I'd rather have her interview Kris Jenner, the female Satan of the family.

If Bruce is a "passive" participant, then what is ROB? Blind items have had him on suicide watch for WEEKS.

It doesn't though. Especially when Bruce is making his transition a big spectacle and cashing in on it as well as Kris and the girls
