Kirby Dick - Director of "Outrage"

[DaHonestAbe]

Shep Smith is gay? Wow, never would've thought......

[ultrapirtle]

@revemupman Of course its gay men and women's business how folks vote on legislation attacking them personally, and its their business what influences their decision to vote that way. If its out of some self loathing, hypocritical need to avoid whispers about their own sexuality, that should be broadcast loudly.

[thomfleming]

the director should have featured Michigan state representative Bob Genetski in this film. The next rising GOP closeted hypocrite.

[CPnieuws]

...his name is Kirby? THAT'S AWESOME.

[plopperrrrr]

Why lie about Fox? I have never heard anything anti gay.

[revemupman]

I think he's invading pricacy, if I decide to vote contradictory to my lifestyle that is NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS.

Yes, gay people! There are millions of other gay men and women who oppose same sex marriage. For many different reasons other than your own.

[jamietfranklin]

see the movie.

[Chancellor2k7]

Off the record not definitive sources! This is a piece of gossip, innuendo and supposition

[good2freelance]

@Chancellor2k7

How do you know ??

[FriderikusRex]

i know someone who worked for a school district in florida and she said everyone in the school district knows charlie christ is gay

[sourmanofcoal]

so washington d.c. is all gay?

[shaitandevel]

Haters love to hate.

My disciples are going to win.

I will reward them and they will reign in hell with me.

[corwin13]

why is saying someone is gay when they are actually straight, upseting or insulting? If I said someone was Catholic or dyslexic and they weren't, no one would be insulted.

[electricfoxx]

Just proves that all politicians, gay or straight, lie.

[KronantheBarbarian]

I worked in broadcast for 2 years we ran maybe 2 stories about this subject out of thousands, I'm really looking forward on this piece.

[grai]

I get the feeling its a much bigger deal being gay in America than it is in Britain

I wonder why that is

[YouDickwod]

because united states is full of idiots.

[MsDeandrea]

thats because America are fun loving jesus freaks and if we were smart we would know that jesus never hated anyone and he never condemned gay people so to get to the point..American are stuipd hey we elected BUSH twice...

[davidlory]

And the third strike was voting for Obama.

[MoveOnDotOrgg]

Got AIDS?

[DNA1961]

Fenderbass is HOT!

[bannol]

Fenderbass is either an adult who refuses to grow up or a pimple-faced teenager defying his parents directive to go to bed. The internet is probably the only place where he can vent without endangering his own life.

Now, just because Shep Smith likes it both ways doesn't mean that he identifies as gay. Gay is just one of those words that conjures up all kinds of ideas in folk's heads, but says so little about those it is supposed to categorize.

[Arthur5041975]

I love Kirby Dick, and this new film is AWESOME! It's about time.

[tribecafilm]

Check out footage from the film Outrage, the "searing documentary that rips the closet doors off DC's conservative community"

youtube (dot) com/watch?v=qVOpO4QCCHw

[jerrydoubleu]

The major media papers still don't report on Cris's lack of integrity/hypocrisy.

[ElCagafuego]

This has to be libel... especially in Shepard Smith's case.

[mrbadguysan]

Shep's free to sue if he feels that way.

[MoPapparani]

Ed Koch?

"How m'I doin'?" Ed Koch?

lmao

[K1ngmaker]

Actually you did ask, you asked why somebody would hide something that isn't immoral. I gave you an example of something hidden that is not immoral It shows the fallacy of your question.

You're acting immature and juvenile; frankly I'm glad you won't be responding, anybody else reading our conversation will see you for what you are: A bigot who can't face their poor logic being challenged.

[K1ngmaker]

I'm surprised about Edwards too. Didn't know he was gay. JFK was gay?

Also EVERYBODY in the media? I mean every actor, every news anchor, every director.

It's like the red menace during the 50's.

[wbowens82]

The whole media and government are all faggots whats the big surprise?

[K1ngmaker]

Clinton was gay?

[ambientdiscord]

didn't he bang Peter Griffin?

[NomadicAddict]

OK, if gays are "born gay" (which I believe is a farce), then why are they in the proverbial closet in the first place?

Why are they ashamed? Could it be that they know it's a shameful and immoral way to be?

[K1ngmaker]

For the same reason that kids sometimes try to hide the fact they're dating somebody of another race. They know they'll face judgment from society and their families.

Duh.

[NomadicAddict]

That still does not answer the question regarding being "born gay". Duh!

Dating someone of a different race is a choice, therefore they are being judged based on their choice, decision, or judgement.

Personally, I feel your comparison is right on target in that sense. Gays are often judged based on their choices, decision, and poor judgement.

[K1ngmaker]

You didn't ask why somebody is born gay, you asked why somebody would hide something they shouldn't be ashamed of. People shouldn't have to be ashamed of dating somebody of a different race. Yet due to judgements they will often hide it (choice or not we're talking about why people hide remember) .

So there you go, people hide things not due necessarily to immorality; but other reasons as well. Your initial reasoning is flawed.

[NomadicAddict]

This is clearly over your level of comprehension.

My point is IF THEY ARE BORN GAY, why would they be ashamed?

A more logical point to my argument would be based on the fact that some black people pass for white as so to live a more comfortable and acceptable existence in a racist society. This is probably why some gays choose to stay in the closet as well.

The decision to date outside of one's race is strictly a choice, unlike being born black or gay (i.e. farce)... THINK!!!

[K1ngmaker]

It's not that anything is above my level of comprehension, it's that you've singularly failed to make a point. I've showed you an example of another issue in which people hide or are ashamed of things that are not in fact wrong. Now you're getting personal rather than simply acknowledge that your initial argument was flawed.

Also, you obviously don't understand what the word logic means; because you're using a fallacy called an Ad Hominem right now. You're attacking me rather than my argument.

[NomadicAddict]

I didn't ask for an example of another issue.

By the way, this was not an attack by any means. I don't know you, don't want to know you, and didn't ask for your input in the first place. I was in fact looking for an intelligent response from a "thinking person". DUH!!!

By the way, don't look for another response from me because you want get one. I usually don't respond to people like you anyways.

[SubmarinerAndroid]

Call the WHITEHOUSE to support Lt.Choi and all 12,500 other soldiers who have been kicked out for being gay.

Call the White House comment line at 202-456-1111.

[WARDOG1138]

"This film is not yet rated" is FANTASTIC! I have it & Love it

[crestmere]

Good for you Kirby.

Your doc about the ratings board changed how I look at movies.

Keep it up.

[masamuneMK5]

I'm not sold in the least on this "documentary". Putting together a list of politicians whose stance he doesn't agree with and saying they are gay or having other people say that they are gay...

Just seems like a shameless attempt to discredit them by calling them hypocrites. Notice how he added that if they were gay he wouldn't out them as long as they were voting for what he wanted them to, since obviously it is harmful politically.

Hard to represent equality when you are so anti-anti-gay.

[seanotube85]

"Just seems like a shameless attempt to discredit them by calling them hypocrites. Notice how he added that if they were gay he wouldn't out them as long as they were voting for what he wanted them to, since obviously it is harmful politically."

Actually, he's trying to discredit them FOR being hypocrites. He said he wouldn't out them if they were not being hypocrites and voting against gay rights while being secretly homosexual. So he's not being anti-anti-gay. He's being anti-hypocrite.

[masamuneMK5]

Yes, you are quite right, that is a focus of his.

In this case though we are talking about politicians. Almost ALL politicians are inherently hypocrites - frequently, on more issues than not. We often make explain or justify illogical (+ hypocritical) actions and views as politics as usual or politically motivated, it's that commonplace.

When you realize that fact and take that aspect out of the equation it reduces the documentary to an attack on anti-anti-gay positions as previously stated.

[quinn2469]

Not that it matters but, Charlie Crist is gay? I'm unshocked.  Shep Smith is old news.

[justtex1975]

Dick likes dick. So what. Who cares??

He's allowed his cravings to engulf every aspect of his life, & he wants everyone with similar cravings to be just as screwed up as he is.

Most republicans, me included, never cared if Rep. Jim Colby was homosexual or hetrosexual.

Jim's a gr8 guy & he never tried to push his lifestyle onto anyone. He never demanded anyone agree with his choices, or argue for special rights. He's always thoughtful & respectful.

Dick, why can't you be "tolerant"?

[bararistheman]

"Most republicans, me included, never cared if Rep. Jim Colby was homosexual or hetrosexual. "

I find this to be highly inacurate. Maby most republicans YOU know are tolerant of gays, but I wouldn't say that most are OK with it. Being anti-gay is part of the mainstream Republican mantra.

[justtex1975]

b wrote: "Being anti-gay is part of the mainstream Republican mantra."

Define "anti-" homosexual.

Then, show me any evidence that supports your false silly ass notion.

[bittermoviecritic]

This was way better than last week's "Imperfect Enjoyment." :P

[HulkSmashPunyHumans]

Speaking of gay I once heard a rumour that Dick Cheney likes to have baseball bats shoved up his asshole.

That is supposedly why that one DC madam was killed and then they tried to make it look like she hung herself. Remember that? I do.

She was going to tell the world that Dick Cheney uses a Louisville Slugger as his personal anal dildo.

Now if there ever was an unfounded rumour worth spreading it would be that! Feel free to spread it everyone. Enjoy.

[xxShannonGreenxx]

Republicans are like Catholic Priests.... 50% of them are in the closet.

[marcomariaz26]

his mike is set too low and at the wrong angle...

[imaginarynumber]

Curvy Dick

[GayaPapaya]

I strongly recommend "This Film is Not Yet Rated." U.S. movies are so heavily censored before we ever see them, and violence is far more tolerated than sex.

As for "Outrage" I worry the movie may be thin on proof or evidence, and so may undermine it's own credibility. I'll just have to watch it and see. . .

I wish the film maker had been able to "out" Matt Drudge and Karl Rove - those two little creeps are directly behind the stoking & politicisation of anti-gay hate and people are dying!

[dizzymasekela]

90% of republican dudes are self-loathing closet-gays.

Go TYT!!!

[jaba987]

what are his other 2 movies??

[znotty]

i`m straight & Shep is the only decent person on Fox.

[febiyour]

i believe the young turks are paid a great deal by gay lobbyist. i am unsubscribe as of now. fuck the young turks. i'm on the left but these bitches take the gay issue and handle it like fox would. A PERSON'S SEX LIFE IS THEIR OWN!!!! again fuck the young turks

[crowdaddy13]

goodbye

[znotty]

good riddance...

[crowdaddy13]

i didnt say goodbye as if i were leaving.......god youre a dumbass......i was talking to febiyour.........read posts before you comment......yet another idiot assumption..........boy you have a case of the dumbasses today

[Chumpnutable]

Dude if these polititions weren't self hating gays, voting against rights then the documentary wouldn't be made. Also this is a guest on TYT, and Cenk is doing what a host does, interview the guest.

[snipzor]

What a shame, have fun and fuck off for missing the point.

God damn social conservative. Hypocrite, luckily you can be the subject of Kirby's next movie. The hypocritical left.

[SubmarinerAndroid]

You totally missed the point.

[madhi19]

Seriously the friend of the friend told me that they know somebody who said they had sex with somebody...

[upabittoolate]

wow, ed koch? who knew?

[Aslanspal]

I think Matt Drudge should have been on the list he has hurt gays and lesbians with his site.

[SubmarinerAndroid]

Yes! I'll bet Drudge is one of the people the filmmaker wanted to include but couldn't get enough proof on

[mads888]

You guys should not say dirty, filthy things about mothers and asses and putting genitals up the backside of other people. Thats not cool man.

[bearlikesbeer]

Mads888, that is possibly the funniest comment I have ever read on a TYT page. You've made my day. Thank you.

[andid]

I love the idea for the movie but agree that Shep Smith is one of the only tolerable voices on Fox News and should have been left alone. He can't vote on legislation, anyways.

[jrtt19]

I knew Shep Smith was Gay!!!!

[DillonX]

I think he should've left Shep Smith alone -- he's about the only reasonable voice at FOX & will likely leave FOX if he gets a good offer somewhere else.

And I bet he didn't out Lindsay Graham because, although it's been said his gayness is one of the worst kept secrets in DC, apparently, if he is gay, Lindsay is very careful about not being seen with somene as he wants to keep 'em SC votes.

[StopBeingAFucktard2]

Ooooh he's got a new movie? This Film is Not Yet Rated was excellent, i wanna see the new one.

[Politicrafty]

What are the names of the politicians that are closeted and vote against gay rights? I want a list.

They mention Charlie Crist, Ed Koch, David Dreyer, but are there more? Specifically senators and congressmen, please.

[SubmarinerAndroid]

Sen. Lindsey Graham, of course

Sen. Mitch McConnell

Sen. Jeff Sessions

Sen. Orrin Hatch

Karl Rove (not elected but just as important; remember he masterminded the Repub victories in '04 which hinged on anti-gay initiatives bringing out the anti-gay voters in several states)

[Politicrafty]

Oh wow. Hehehehehehe. The closet is a very strange place to be. A wonder that Republicans put their most hypocritical skeleton stashers out front like that.

I liked it when Stewart called Mitch McConnell a turtle.

Republicans should get wind of this and rip themselves a part, making their torture and war harder to wage.

[motion00815]

Kirby really is a dick. Shep gets 2 hours a day on FOX and if u watch u can certainly see he spends the entire 2 hours bashing gays, creating hysteria, spewing gay hate and pushing FOX's anti gay agenda. this assfag loser just hates FOX. go out Anderson Cooper and Olbermann u liberal scum douchebag

[seestickglue232]

Your comment is kinda weird. You admit that a fox anchor spends all his time carrying an agenda, but still support fox? You support a network that you know creates hysteria, gay hate and pushing an anti-gay agenda? Well I don't support MSNBC or CNN or anything but I personally hate Fox for obvious reasons, and I don't see how kirby is being a dick..It's not his fault that Fox advertises themselves as fair and balanced and they really aren't.

[rickelmonoggin]

Do you not think that Shep Smith is fair and balanced? What about Alan Colmes when he was on? Is he not fair and balanced?

The Simpsons is on Fox-does it promote an agenda of anti-gay hatred?

[seestickglue232]

Just because shep doesn't "FUCKING" torture as he likes to say does not make him fair and balanced...if murdoch didn't think shep was healthy for the republican party they'd pull his ass, same with colmes OH WAIT they did.

And if you've ever heard an interview from the creator of family guy for instance you'd know that FOX entertainment is left alone by FOX media, they are two entirely different businesses that must be ran two different ways. fox entertainment is not the same as fox news

[rickelmonoggin]

Different companies perhaps, but still owned by Rupert Murdoch. Rupert Murdoch has no particular loyalty to the Republican party. His main aim is to make money, and, for whatever reason, irrational right wing nuts like Bill O'Reilly and Glen Beck make more money for him than sensible liberal news like the Young Turks, sadly. I'm sure the producers new about Colmes views before he was employed, so why did they employ him in the first place? Why do they continue to employ Shep Smith?

[JuanLMFAO]

TYT, this was a great interview! I would love to see more interviews with directors and writers of documentaries.

*COPY & PASTE IF YOU AGREE*

[hypnofan35]

i know that 911 was such a huge and broad based Republican lie, that it cannot be "outed". There would be so much difficulty with prosecuting and entire party it would practically have to be dismantled and half the leaders would have to be jailed for conpiracy. Gay folks have a "natural" conspiracy too. It is like they have to take that side, because they are on that side. Gay is perfect for a political career. Keeping secrets and taking sides is perfect for politics.

[smsthalia]

TYT, this was a great interview! I would love to see more interviews with directors and writers of documentaries.

[rickelmonoggin]

I feel very uncomfortable with the idea ot 'outing' gay politicians unless it is absolutely clear that they are actively discriminating against gay people.

I think outing Shep Smith is completely wrong, and I'm glad Cenk flagged this up with this guy.

Aside from the fact that Shep is a good guy imho, I don't accept that merely working for Fox News means you are against gay people.

[keithrockerboblewis]

but working there you are an enabler. Perhaps not as bad, but Fox would not be able to function without enablers.

[rickelmonoggin]

I believe strongly in freedom of privacy. I don't think it's fair to say that one person working at Fox somehow is responsible for everything that everyone else says. Is Shep Smith responsible for what O'Reilly says? And so he has to suffer for what he does? I don't think that's fair.

[rickelmonoggin]

You can't complain about Fox News not being 'fair and balanced' and then go and attack one of the few presenters on it who is of a fairly liberal persuasion and does attempt to present a fair view of things.

The more liberal presenters on there, the better, and it is a tactical error apart from anything else to go out and attack them.

[Kloxboy]

Love his movies, he doesn't mind pissing people off for the sake of truth.

[orlandrake]

Shepard Smith is gay!? HA! Awesome.

[fenderbass]

fuck all you gay rights queer motherfuckers

[naliuj]

keepin it classy with fenderbass

[EtcEtcAndEtc]

ha, I left lots of messages on his posted videos just mentioning that he was a bigot and anyone who knows hims should think about that, and that maybe people should at least boycott his videos!

Anyone else who feels the same way should do the same thing, as youtube doesn't seem to mind people spouting racist and hateful views...

[fenderbass]

How about a big fuck you motherfucker 50 million times.You faggot.Son of a very nasty Bitch!!!!!!

[beeohhski]

its fenderbass that guy who loves gay people but is ashamed he hit on me in a PM it was like fenderbass: so are you a boy or a girl. me: boy fenderbass: oh really can i blow you i never responded but heres the answer NO fenderbass you can not blow me you sick fag

[fenderbass]

yo moma that dirty fucking whore who takes it up the ass like you do.

[SubmarinerAndroid]

I'm curious. Why do you feel that way?

[fenderbass]

if i have to explain it to you,you're not worth the time it takes for an explaination.

[naliuj]

spouting racist and hateful views is the price to be paid for "universal" freedom of speech, luckily it lets us call them on their views.

[fenderbass]

call it on whatever you want and i will still call you a sick faggot

[politicalfarce]

You know fenderbass, I read an interesting study about homosexuality that said that people who use graphic language involving sexual acts to insult gay people are mostly closeted homosexuals themselves.

You say stuff like "you take it up the ass" to insult people because the idea of gay anal sex subconciously turns you on.

In short, you are probably gay. Don't be ashamed of it. There is nothing wrong with being attracted to men. Just be sure to use a condom.

[fenderbass]

ok.lets try this one.Go fuck your mother that disgusrting bitch who birthed you.that oozing cunt.How about them apples?Does that make me gayer?I can even get gayer than that if you like.

[politicalfarce]

Nah, you don't need to get gayer than that.

It's pretty obvious as it is.

Again, please be sure to use a condom.

[bararistheman]

Your a big bad man....oooh..

Fender basses are shit, anyway. Get a real bass like a Stingray or Wal.

Get the fuck out of here. Just go.

[fenderbass]

I already have that bass,including the free bass your moma does.

[EtcEtcAndEtc]

Hey fenderbass, just touching in to remind you that it seems the results of our little youtube survey are:

1 that you are probably a closet homosexual.

2 That no one is upset by your hateful offensive rants - I feel a tad sorry for you; do you kiss your mother with that mouth?

[EtcEtcAndEtc]

3 That you're completely undermining your own point of view because now anyone who wasn't sure how they felt about the issues you're obsessed with can clearly see that you've got a real BIG chip on your shoulder and that everyone thinks you're a moron.

4 That apparently you really can get 'gayer'! Impressive, I'd like to hear how that goes for you. Let us know, and we'll try to support you through your transformation into a human being.

[fenderbass]

Think whatever you want about me.I think you're a sick homo who needs a bullet throw his/her skull.whatever the fuck yall are.

[K1ngmaker]

Wait a minute, you just advocate the murder of a random stranger, and you're calling somebody else sick?

Hey look everybody. It's the next school/office shooter posting right here on youtube.

[fenderbass]

Hy everybody,am I suppose to give in to your PC peer pressure.How about go fuck yourself or put your head next to my barrel.

[McCainTheTurdburglar]

fenderbass, I saw where you said on another video what you would like to be done to a gay guy; "why didn't you bust that motherfuckers face?"

I don't know if you were molested by a uncle or something but you have some deep seated issues. Gays are not out to get you. You come across as a miserable and paranoid person filled with rage. Get help. Seriously. Maybe let a gay guy give you a makeover. Looking FABULOUS can do wonders for a person. :-)

[fenderbass]

Bitch!!!! Go fuck yourself.I was never molested and I had a father involved in my life that's why I'm NOT a sick deranged gay "cocksucker" like you.You're gay because you're still looking for your father.

[devchelle2]

you are clearly in the midst of a deep homosexual panic

[fenderbass]

I may be but you're a dick with a pussy

[devchelle2]

if your calling me gay... YAY!!! YOU WIN THE PRIZE... A BIG FAT WET KISS FROM ME!!! COME HERE BIG BOY AND GIVE THIS MAN SOME LOVIN!!!

[fenderbass]

enough said in my last post

[MoveOnDotOrgg]

devchelle2: got aids?

[devchelle2]

moveondotorgg: why would u say that? prick

[K1ngmaker]

So once again, after calling homosexuals "sick" you suggest murder out of minor disagreement on the internet. I'm curious, should we give in to your pathetic KKK/skinhead style threats? or should we just keep laughing at how you express views that belong better in a time period where blacks and Jews were hung along side people accused of being homosexual.

While you may not be a "cocksucker" you're certainly deranged, non deranged people do not threaten random strangers for no reason.

[palsyddad]

What a sad dick. Before you start rantng at me with your hate speech, I am a staight guy but I have a brain and a heart. Staight but not narrow. You are probably bi-curious at least, you sad unclefucker.

Fenders suck and are for unimaginative posers. I bet you play a "relic'ed" Squier, you dunce. Go blow some more dudes in truck stops, or better yet overdose on Oxycontin. That would be so nice.

[palsyddad]

This comment was directed at "fenderbass" BTW

[fenderbass]

No it was directed at your mother who doesn't know who your father is.neither do you.

[fenderbass]

Always!!!!!

[Joxman2k]

I haven't seen the movie, but if a politician actually represents his constituents, who may be anti-gay, how is that wrong? I believe that if a politician takes their personal bias and makes that their deciding factor on issues, then that is egocentric and not representative.

Don't get me wrong, I support gay people and their cause of equality. I think being gay or straight is a non-issue for running for office.

maybe I live in ignorance of reality.

[kwballzandy]

but what you don't seem to understand is that we dont live in a democracy. we live in a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. it doesnt matter if 99 percent of people are anti-gay it is unconstitutional to deny gay rights.

[seamoremonster]

Because it's hypocritical and dishonest. He is lying to his constituents and he is betraying his own sexual preference. Hell, I can't believe the prejudice against gays.  And no, I'm not gay. It's just I have better things to do than worry about someone else's sexual preference. There are gay people in the world, there always has been....shit we need to learn to live with it and these bastards are in denial, pretending to be upstanding Christians etc and perpetrating this discrimination.

[Joxman2k]

@ seamoremonster

Well I understand the hypocracy and dishonesty when trying to say you are a Christian, and that might get you more votes from the electorate. But he is a politician and if he represents his electorate than what is the harm?

@ kwballzandy

I agree that it is unconstitutional to deny anybodys rights.

----

I'm just trying to say if he does his job, what does it matter if he is gay?

It matters to ignorant, prejudiced, people.

[SubmarinerAndroid]

Sounds like you're talking about Sen. Lindsey Graham.

Anyway, sometimes being an elected rep isn't about doing what constituents want but doing the right thing.

[Joxman2k]

Ya I've got to agree with you there.

[GabrielGZNH]

A friend of a friend... Nice source..

[Daybreaq]

Maybe it's just because I'm a Floridian, but I thought everyone knew Charlie Crist was gay.

[liquidhead]

Sorry, but outside of Florida that doesn't seem to be common knowledge. Since the film, however, the rumors became far more widespread.

[interfan63]

he is gay

[YawnGod]

"homosecktual"

[0HedgeKnight0]

Yes, yes he is.
