he's absolutely thrilled about all the attention Pox News is giving this. Pox has never heard about "blowback." He has.

well off, semi retired, and is in a position to really not give a shit what the GOP or Fox thinks for that matter. A lot of these Hollywood types Ed's age went through the McCarthy Era and had friends blacklisted and lose careers. They faced tougher foes than the current blustering bafoons.
Ed Asner doesn't care about their shit.

Marta and I met Ed a couple years ago. He was charming considering we caused him to spill his drink. We were outside with the temp in the low teens. We got 2 great autographed photos.

I keep saying that one of these days I'm going to find that old disposable camera and get it developed.
