That's what I'm saying, and that's how I meant my own original reply. Cenk owes him nothing.
Testify, MedfordTim!
SAM: What's new, Normie? NORM: Terrorists, Sam. They've taken over my stomach and they're demanding beer.
This is an open forum. It is not the Cenk Uygur love feast.
The poster did ask a simple question, as far as I can see. I did not detect any blazing guns. He reprinted some things Cenk wrote, and asked for a clarification. Doesn't matter if they were written for the show or the Huffington post or a tiny student newspaper. They were meant for public eyes.
Has Cenk addressed this before? Maybe, but as a public figure he might have to get used to having his old words thrown back at him now and then. I don't know how the poster stumbled on these old rants, but having found them he has every right to ask about them. If Tim or anyone cares to defend Cenk they might provide a helpful link to one of his prior rebuttals. But they have no business shooting the messenger.
I know that perseverating on the fate of the long dead gets tiresome, but some people just can't give it up.
Man, I'm not getting it. I had to scroll to the top and reread Atilla's original words to see where you got the idea that he was on some kind of hunting expedition to bag the beloved Uygur. There's nothing there. Of course he Googled "Cenk Uygur" to see what came up. And was maybe a bit troubled by something he found.
Possibly the title he chose ("Cenk Uygur owes us explanation...") was too brazen, but I don't know why you think he's on some kind of anti-Turkish trip. This is nothing like that weird posting of a couple of months ago from someone who'd obviously never watched the show, demanding to know how "these young Turks" can face themselves in the mirror or whatever it said.
Also, I don't consider this to be Cenk's site; it is The Young Turks' site, and that is me and you as much as the Captain.
