Geraldo Rivera has a commercial for presumably his show in which he claims that there are people somewhere who love him. Do you love him, or have you ever met or heard rumors of anybody who loves him? I’d put this in Cafe Society, but this is a poll.
No.
No, I even lightly ‘dis’ him in person.
No
Hell no.
Nope.
And given the one rock special I saw on TV where they were talking about Geraldo and Mick Jagger having been a thing, I can tell you that there are at least several ex-Stones fans among the workers of my old company who are probably none-too pleased with the mental image of Bushy-Lipped Geraldo.
ick. If I have control of the clicker, I change the channel as soon as I see his smarmy face.
Hate.
I gotta admit to a soft place in my heart for him… after all, I did get to see him hit in the face with a chair on national TV; and that was SO worth it!
I never “loved” him, but I did like him back when he was first starting out. He seemed honest and genuine and sympathetic and funny, back in the (?) 70’s. Did he have a breakdown or something?
I used to like Geraldo, and I definitely lusted after him when both of us were younger, but I never felt anything resembling love.
He’s half right.
I’ve never heard anyone IRL say they even like him.
Can’t stand his jackassery, and I have never heard anyone say they like him, let alone love him.
In all fairness, when he was very young, he brought the Willowbrook State School situation to a wide audience by bringing in cameras. It was one of the most shocking news stories and really brought investigative journalism to the forefront. Additionally, he kept in touch with some of the students he encountered in the hellish environment.
That’s one admirable action in a professional life dominated by jackassery and self-promotion.
In Geraldo’s case, I think it’s more “Some people hate him and some people don’t care.”
I hate him and his smug face. I also don’t trust moustachioed people. What are you hiding behind there?
He’s a complete douchebag.
I like him. Love sounds too gay, but he’s OK in my book. I’d say he has more journalistic integrity the Bill O’Reilly, whom some people can stomach.
Can’t stand him.
