‘Friday Night Lights’ Author Describes How He Was ‘Savaged’ After Endorsing Mitt Romney

“Friday Night Lights” author and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Buzz Bissinger kicked up a firestorm after becoming the most recent public figure to endorse Mitt Romney last week.

Describing himself as a lifelong Democrat from New York’s Upper West Side, or “the country’s nexus of liberalogy,” he admitted in a Daily Beast article that he still clings to his roots, but moves further to the right as he ages.  The article analyzes the policy positions of the two candidates, which he says he studied “assiduously,” and concludes with the assertion that “Romney has it.”

So what was the public’s reaction to his lengthy endorsement?  He says about “6 to 1,” it was hateful, expletive-filled insults.

Speaking with Howard Kurtz on CNN’s “Reliable Sources,” Bissinger joked that he should “at least” be in the Witness Protection Program given the public’s reaction.

He explained:

“I would say between the Daily Beast comments, Twitter comments, Facebook comments– roughly…4,000 comments– I ran about 6-1 against.  And it wasn’t just, you know, ‘I disagree with you.’  It was the f-word, it was ‘you’re a baby killer.’

“It was even friends, [but] among friends it wasn’t as vitriolic. There was this sense of, ‘How dare you, you’re traitor.  You’re a writer.  You’re a journalist. How can you possibly come out in favor of this man?’”

“…You could feel the anguish, you could feel the sense of perhaps traitorship.  I am a lifelong Democrat…”

Here is video of the interview, via CNN:

From there, the two discussed what exactly it means that Bissinger’s friends have branded him a “traitor.”

Bissinger remarked:

“There’s no doubt in my mind that there’s a definite liberal bias in the mainstream media…You are simply not expected, when you’re a journalist and a writer, to endorse a Republican.  And don’t tell me it does not seep into the coverage.  I mean, you look at The New York Times, you look at their editorial today on Afghanistan, you would feel it’s the Republicans’ fault we’re still there, but that’s Obama’s decision.  It does seep in, and I know because as a journalist it seeped in when I wrote for the Philadelphia Enquirer.”

So what has he learned from the experience?

Bissinger said:

I thought liberals were supposed to be ‘open-minded.’  I thought they were supposed to accept divergent viewpoints to at least say, ‘hey, everyone in America has a right to an opinion.’  But it’s really about– ‘I love free speech as long as it’s the free speech that I want’ … Liberals have this sense of themselves, but 90% are as nasty, as vitriolic, as vicious as the conservatives they say are…

When asked about why he came back swinging against his critics on Twitter, Bissinger remarked: “I don’t like taking crap, and I don’t like taking abuse when I feel it’s misplaced.”

    It would be hard to admit that you could be so wrong for so long. Why does it take so many people decades to see the truth? It’s hard to understand.

      All Mr.Bissinger needs to do share the information below with those ignorant folks attacking him. After the election, win or lose, President Obama already has it worked out to devalue the U.S.D in the name of “fairness” to the world (bring America down to “even things out” in the world). If you’ve seen the motion picture or read the book”Obama 2016″ you already know this but many still are not fully aware. If the people who called Bissinger a “traitor” did their homework they’d realize this is far more serious of an election than Ford-Carter or Bush-Gore or Dole-Clinton etc. This is nothing like we Americans have ever faced before – perhaps since our nation was founded. Our very way of life is at stake. Not surprising they don’t know what’s going on though when you go and look and see “Miley Cyrus Tattoo” is the number one search term in the U.S over the weekend.

      Here’s Dinesh D’souza at a recent conference explaining everything Barack Obama has planned for the next four years and beyond. Wait until you hear his answer to an audience member about the “Anti-Christ”, it’s very alarming. Also, what he says about Chris Matthews is pretty amusing.

We are a very busy group whom don’t hang around parks and destroy cities and businesses. We instead are interested in building and expanding the greatness of our nation.

      Bottom line: Romney knows business, profits, etc…to get us out of a recessive, depression. He embodies the seriousness necessary for those whom continually threaten us. He is religious rather than Hollywoods fad of the term. Really, do we need a President, whom those whose greatest skillis “make believe” to be our experts….COME ON AMERICA< stop drinking from the sippy cups of fantasy….our country and its government needs to have "Grown-ups" and leaders not jesters and organizers.

      Stockholme syndrome. Plus, leftists know that they are vile and hateful people. It is WHAT they are, it is how they keep their useful idiots on the slave plantation. The inmates are also the guards to the slave plantation. Anyone that dares to leave the plantation will be attacked repeatedly and with every vile thing they can come up with.

      This is why I have stated numerous times, you CANNOT negotiate with these freaks. There is no winning against them. They will fight with attrition. They will never give up any ground, they are winning this war on freedom. They will have their complete control shortly and the Republican establishment will go along with it. Hopefully we can throw out the establishment Repubs……..otherwise the inevitable will happen again. The slave masters will want to keep us their slaves, we will either capitulate to being slaves or the 2nd civil war will occur.

      The liberal left who claim “tolerance” as one of their proud, Banshee screams
      are so far removed from its purity, they wouldn’t recognize it, if it sat on their shoulders.

      This fellow’s transition from left to right
      reminds me a lot of David Mamet’s story.

      The left has no defense for their demoralizing actions.
      Their only response is to offend
      anyone who doesn’t tow their warped line of insanity & self-righteousness.
      If it was so superior, they would concentrate on the strength of it
      & not waste time, trying to batter & bloody the right,
      with vulgar comments & threats.

      Recall all those “tolerant” radical gay rights activists
      who were invited to the White House by Oblameo
      & disgracefully posed for pictures,
      while they flipped fingers at the portraits of Bush & Reagan.

      How juvenile & absolutely classless…grown adults acting like fools.
      The kinder & gentler gays were equally put off about it.
      Obviously, Oblameo allowed & encouraged it,
      if they had any true respect for him, they wouldn’t have shown their true colors.

      There’s tolerance to be served on every level,
      but when one group tries to cram it, in one’s face, on such a disgusting level=
      it becomes intolerant & insufferable & prone to reactionary response.

      I can hear Andrew Breitbart yelling, “Behave yourselves, behave yourselves”.
      In a civil society,
      there’s much to be said about simple decency & dignity-
      too bad, the intolerant left never got that memo.

      @STM62 Why does it take decades? Because the liberal lie is easier. Imagine never having to admit you’re wrong or that you don’t know something. When confronted with the truth, ad hominem attacks just slide of the tongue. Liberals don’t have to research information. Everyone is saying the same thing so it must be true. You are held up as an intellectual genius on scholastic campuses across the land. Self righteousness is very good for ego enhancement. Since becoming a conservative (thank you, Mr. Obama) I have had to investigate, relearn, and research. It’s time consuming and difficult at times. I know now that it is one of the costs of freedom and I will never be lulled to sleep again. One thing I never expected, though, was how much happier and content I am.

I obviously live in a trailer, have no teeth and sleep with anything including animals. 2. I should be raped by a crazed lunatic and forced to raise a “mutant” child. 3. many people seem to think I need to be shipped to Afghanistan. 4. anything that has happened is due to the prior president, out of office almost 4 years or rather more bizarre, the fault of Romney -when I point out he is not in office, they came back with “see that just shows how stupid you are” what? It seems like a mass brainwashing of the masses. Many of the responses state they will use very small words so I will understand them, but is difficult as they misspell most of them.

The author strongly supports Pres Obama and makes a LOT of excuses for him — but also reveals a bunch of information about Obama’s childhood, his past & current associations with Marxists/Communists, and his radical views for an American future. This is not written by a “Right-wingnut” author that can easily be dismissed by the Libs, but by HIS FRIEND. Check out the book and then tell your friends. Find out who Obama really IS!

    Progressives and democrats have a hard time looking into the mirror and seeing that they have become what they claim to detest in others. Instead, they spend all of their time pointing the finger at others. Most of the time doing this by lying, intimidation, interrupting, and spewing hatred towards those with different beliefs. The exact things they accuse the opposition of doing. They are wolves in sheeps clothing. There is nothing to help shed the wool like siding with a Republican. As Little Red Riding Hood put it so eloquently….”Ohhh grandma, what big eyes and teeth you have!” Watch out…cause grandma has a hard bite as this gentleman found out when he switched his support to Romney.

      Baby killer is a slur directed at returning soldiers, starting with Vietnam vets, who supposedly killed women and children just for fun. It’s not about abortion, they don’t consider that killing babies, rather simply flushing a clump of cells, like blowing your nose.

      Calling a conservative a baby killer means they are war mongers, as opposed to the peace loving, tolerent liberals.

      Liberals love social experiments. One that I could agree with is filling a lone island in the middle of the OP with a bunch of liberals and Muslims, and see what happens…..and in the name of fairness, not selecting ***** Starbucks liberals, but instead the violent ones, in order to have their group at the level of skills of their new loving neighbors…

      Progressives, commies, socialists, obots, obamunists, democRats.

      Why we are still using the “liberal” label, when we know they “nationalized” it for themselves to dissimulate?

    The dems sure hate people to think for themselves! If they don’t tow-the-line, they are considered fair game. So sad. All this coming from the party of tolerance, love and compassion.

    People, America needs to drop to our knees. Only God has the power to defeat the evil entrenched in our gov’t. Time to Tebow!

    Bissinger said “I thought liberals were supposed to be ‘open-minded.’ I thought they were supposed to accept divergent viewpoints to at least say, ‘hey, everyone in America has a right to an opinion.’ But it’s really about– ‘I love free speech as long as it’s the free speech that I want’ … Liberals have this sense of themselves, but 90% are as nasty, as vitriolic, as vicious as the conservatives they say are”

    So true, we have been trying to get you to see this for a long time. We speak the truth when we describe what we see in the left. Their anger and violence comes from a deep seated self loathing. Deep down they can see what kind of beings they really are and they must lie endlessly to cover this up even from themselves. It is the only way they can bear what they have become, by lying to themselves and projecting their lies and all that is darkness within their souls upon those they hate for merely being right and true.

      You are exactly right. The libs always project their faults [hate, intolerance, racism, etc.] on the conseratives and the media folks are the worst! They are evil.

    Wow his last part nailed it, “I love free Speech as long as it’s the free speech I want”. Typical double standard that hopefully will be righted over the next decade.

      Do you even read what you type? Or do you just pound on the keys like a monkey hoping something resembling a sentence comes out?

      Individualism just hates, with no reason other than he disagrees. He can’t defend Gaybama, but he wakes up in the morning and fails to shave or brush his teeth lest he sees himself in the mirror for what he is…

      As Churchill said, if he’d a brain, he’d be a conservative.

      Reminds me of a sign I once saw spray-painted on a freeway wall – ” ‘F’ all haters!”

    Hey, from a neighboring team the Panthers play, I am glad to welcome you back to the REAL WORLD where REAL AMERICANS live, work, love, serve and die.

    Please, come to live in TEXAS. ny is filled with misguided boobs (take that anyway you like), and like California, should just be cut off from the rest of AMERICA to float away. IMHO.

      The vitriol always comes from the “party of tolerance,” the Dems/libs/progressives. They are tolerant only when the free speech lines up with what they think. It is never the other way around. When Stacey Dash came out in support of Romney, it was the left that called her horrible names. When someone famous comes out in support of Obama, my first thought is not to take to the social networks and think of every rotten name I can call them. My first and only thought is usually something along the lines of “poor fool,” or “Kool-Aid drinker.” I also would never consider defacing somebody’s Obama sign in their yard…it’s a free country and we’re free to disagree. True intolerance comes from the left.

    Having a conversation with a liberal is impossible these days. Welcome to the world of adults. We actually can disagree without name calling. It’s a new world of substance over style. Hope you’ll like it.
