Starting point is 00:00:33 We've got a big announcement of an announcement. This is what this is right here is an announcement of an announcement. Coming up on this broadcast, we were giving the opportunity to do something, and we're going to do it live on the air. We're going to do it live on the air just for you. Now, off the air, we will get to Harambe as this. show progresses. I promise because I have out lost my mind over this whole guerrilla thing. That's unbelievable to me. But we'll get to it because I'm about ready to break into it right now, but I still am a little a little miffed at, you know, the death of Muhammad Ali, the age of 74.
Starting point is 00:01:22 We're still beating up prints for overdosing. We've got Blue Angels crashing, Thunderbirds crashing, military rescue vehicles turning over and military soldiers military soldiers drowning. So, you know, I'd just like to, you know, maybe we'll ease into something else. I'm,
Starting point is 00:01:47 my daughter just turned nine, my youngest child, just turned nine this past week. Unbelievable. And My granddaughter, yes, that's hard to say. I don't know if I'm able to say it twice.
Starting point is 00:02:08 I was born earlier this week or last week. And she, if you follow on Facebook, you know, she's still in the hospital. She's just tiny. They've got to get her fed and she'll be home. So I may or may not be here next Saturday, as I may be in the great state of Florida. There's no way they don't have radio in Florida, do they? So there's no way I could possibly broadcast. At least that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:02:37 I'll have a broadcast. You know we'll have a show for me. I'm just teasing. But I will say that my daughter or my granddaughter, I said it twice now. That means it's getting easier for me to say, that's a little frightening. If either one of them turn into Rose McGowan,
Starting point is 00:03:00 I will disown them. I will completely disown them. I can't, I can't take it. She, uh, she's back in the news again, uh, trying to make herself relevant. Every so often she says comes out in, uh, she looks great with the shaved head and the, and the lipstick and it looks good.
Starting point is 00:03:23 Looks good on your nose. I'm sure she's just doing some part. But she, uh, criticized the advertisements for, X-Men Apocalypse. Now, if you've seen the Billboard, the ad, it shows Jennifer Lawrence's character in a chokehold. Now, they're upset, and I say there, people like Rose McGowan are upset because trivializing the issue of violence against women. The promotional photo used on some posters and billboards for the film shows Apocalypse
Starting point is 00:04:05 The villain played by Oscar Isaac choking mystique played by Jennifer Lawrence And the tagline is only the strong will survive And doggone it, that's just I can't take it There is a major problem when the men and women at 20th century Fox think casual violence against women is the way to market a film Oh, there is no context in the ad, just a woman getting strangled. The fact that no one flagged this is offensive and frankly stupid. There is, I don't know, context to the ad. The context is, it's a movie and it's a movie about the X-Men.
Starting point is 00:04:58 So guess what happens? Let's see. What happens in X-Men? movies. People get hurt. People die. They have superpowers and they use superpowers against other villains and good guys who have superpowers and also people who don't have superpowers. That's the context. And the billboard, only the strong will survive. X-Men. Apocalypse. Now, maybe I'm I don't know. Well, I know that I'm weird and frankly, I got that.
Starting point is 00:05:45 But I look at the billboard and I did not even cross my mind about it being anything to do with casual violence against women. I really, I do not. I didn't see it. I still don't. The only reason I see it at all is because of people like Rose McGowan. I get, you know, Twitter people all got, you know, so, of course, I mean, that's what Twitter does, right? I mean, that's what the beautiful thing about Twitter is you get to just rip things. That's what makes it fun.
Starting point is 00:06:35 And you find little things that bug you and you tweet about it. I mean, that's Twitter. That's what you're supposed to do. Right? I think so. But Rose, and then she posted on her Facebook post, F this. Rose, first of all, let's take a look at it. I wonder what Rose, Rose certainly couldn't have done anything.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Oh, wait, there's covers of movies of her wearing weapons. Oh, yeah, but that's casual violence against men. I guess that's okay. She really has not had, I don't know if she's got these video shorts, that she's putting out. I'm looking at her IMDB page now. She's been in a couple of minor TV series. And, of course, she was in Nip-Tuck.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Well, I talk about a show that was full of male chauvinist and women getting plastic surgery and having illicit sex around the clock. There are a few shows that didn't have that, but Rose was part of that. And charmed. witches. I know they were good witches. I got it. So, Rose, please.
Starting point is 00:07:57 And she's part of the call of duty. She's got some video game money coming in as she voices some stuff on call of duty. That's a good gig. Now listen, I was looking at the Arnold Schwarzenegger television commercial, and it's a television commercial for the game. A game! And it's produced like a movie trailer. I mean, hello, if you want to fire Rose McGowan and hire me, that's fine. That'd be fun being part of that. So I'll give Rose a little, I'll give her half credit, not even half credit. Just a little, little minor credit for doing that, because that works probably fun. But good luck to the United States. Because coming to, you're all. You're all. You're all. You're all. You're
Starting point is 00:08:49 wound up about Facebook. You know, the, they're taking things down and it's not free speech anymore, and it's cracked down. And they're it's not free. Facebook is bad, and Twitter is bad, because they're not letting us say
Starting point is 00:09:11 everything we want to say. And they're already mad at the European Union, because Facebook and Twitter and YouTube and Microsoft who got a code of conduct with the European Union and illegal hate speech, we can't have it, and we're going to take it away. Huh. I wonder what?
Starting point is 00:09:31 Free speech, code of conduct. I wonder how that could happen. Oh, I don't know. Maybe people getting upset over a movie billboard. I mean, these companies are private companies. They can do whatever they want. Right? I mean, they've got to try to stay in business,
Starting point is 00:09:47 and they've got to try to keep people happy. But now, working with governments seems to start pushing the, I don't know. It just doesn't sit right. They can do what they want. I got it. It's okay. For their private companies, they can do what they want.
Starting point is 00:10:10 But it just doesn't sit right. You know what I mean? Yeah. You know what I mean. You're listening to the Jeff Fisher Show. The Blaze Radio Network.
