Jesus Christ people, you talk about Green Book like it’s 90 minutes of white guys burning crosses. If you don’t think it was the best movie released in 2018 that’s fine, but it is thoroughly serviceable and has a message that is at least attempting to be positive. The white character is depicted as a racist ass for…

You’re right. That opinion is unpopular.

Meta comment: halfway through reading this I was just amazed at how smart and interesting this article was, like stuff that appeared on AVC regularly back in the day. Then I scrolled up and saw O’Neal’s name. Considering that most articles on the site these days don’t do much more than evaluate the wokeness of…

What a bunch of self-serving bullshit. You're one of the few posters I actively recognize as being terrible here and so of course you get on a high horse over this dumb bullshit story that was obviously a hoax from day one (This is MAGA Country! You know. 3 blocks from fucking Navy Pier. Jesus Christ.) and instead of…

Yeah, you were still wrong.

So him making this up and lying from the jump is a good thing? He’s still a victim? Jesus fucking Christ! Are more hate crimes happening now than in the past? Yes. Are more fake hate crimes being reported now and not covered by websites like this? Yes, they are. This doesn’t help anyone. He’s a racist, lying piece of…

Recognizing that this story sounded fake as hell from the jump isn’t remotely the same as automatically assuming that all victims are liars, no matter how hard you try and lump everyone with a functioning brain and a healthy dose of skepticism in with the MAGAts and grays who are actually “exhibiting childish glee.”

You regularly take glee in calling anyone that disagrees with you a racist/sexist/homophobe.

“Since this story was first announced, there have been people capering madly for reasons to call him a liar.”

Oh man fuck this guy.  He just made it a hell of a lot harder for others to report their crimes to police.  There’s a special place in hell for him.  

Well of course you would never apologize to everyone on here you damned as a racist for finding the story a bit fishy.  You’ve demonstrated on here for years that you’re just a hateful little troll. Hate is all you’ve got in your life apparently.  

In old terrestrial radio days, it meant the channel was about to change formats.  Discovery is now going to play classic rock from the 70s,80s and 90s.

I think sometimes that O’Neal’s success at Newswire hurt the site overall, since management’s takeaway seemed to be “the people want snark! Let’s give them nothing but snark! And Newswires! Nothing but Newswires with a side of cheap GJI!” Instead of the real takeaway, which is that people liked smart, witty, and…

Here are my least favorite AV Club writers (In no particular order)

Honestly, I think Hughes might be a worse writer than Sean Penn. At least Penn’s writing is entertainingly bad.

The snark on this site is a shell of its former self. What an elaborate piece on something that likely doesn't deserve an offhand mention. We get it, everybody is horrible. 

In a perfect world, Louis CK can weigh in on Liam Neeson and Barsanti can achieve nirvana.

Seriously bad article. I know this is a blog, and not a real news organization with standards, but you can at least try. 

It must be exhausting to be you all the time.

It’s true, race relations and identity politics are fascinating to me, so sometimes I comment.
