Jim Norton On Weiner Pic Release: ‘Andrew Breitbart Was Furious’

Since the fully frontal nude picture of Rep. Anthony Weiner was released on The Opie and Anthony Show seemingly against Andrew Breitbart’s wishes, we’ve heard from Breitbart and the eponymous Opie and Anthony about what went down. But what about the other guy in the room? Comedian Jim Norton has shared his side of the story as well as discussed some of the other news stories of the day in an entertaining interview this morning with 77 WABC host Bernie McGuirk.

Norton’s version of events doesn’t differ too much from that of the other three except for one-upping Gregg “Opie” Hughes description of Breitbart as not being “too happy” with them by saying saying the conservative provocateur was “furious” over the shock jocks releasing the photo. Norton said that Breitbart had been very clear that he didn’t want that to happen and had told him that night that the release made him look like a “liar.” However, Norton and McGuirk both agreed that there really was no other way this could have gone down:

“[Opie] couldn’t help himself and neither could Anthony. They just saw that, ‘Wow, this could help the show’ and it was like a panic moment and they just did it.

…

It’s hard not to. I mean, Breitbart has to realize that the people he’s normally around probably get exclusives. Opie and Anthony Show, we don’t get a lot of exclusives and I think that’s why they just went bananas. It’s kind of like if you’re in jail for five years and you get out and a blonde in a little thong walks by. That’s what that picture was.”

Norton also said it was an “absolute lie” that this was all planned and Breitbart colluded with the hosts to “do his dirty work.”

After all of that (and after a lengthy discussion on how to get the best cell phone pictures of your genitals), McGuirk asked Norton if he thought Weiner should resign. Norton said he initially didn’t but Breitbart had pointed out the blackmail angle (the idea that Weiner endangered the country by making himself susceptible to extortion) and that that may have changed his mind. Still, he pointed out if you want a husband who doesn’t cheat, a politician isn’t the way to go as they all do. However, while Norton believed that was the case and thought Weiner would have been “sociopathic” to not deny the allegations the first time he was accused, the fact that he was still lying five days later troubled Norton.

Listen to all this as well as Norton’s thoughts on the brewing Tracy Morgan scandal and which politician both he and McGuirk thought handled their affairs the best (hint: socks) in the clip from 77 WABC below:

This is now starting to turn into Breitbart scandal. Years of wisdom tell me you kind of stay out of the public eye until the smoke clears.
errxn

This just can’t be true. After all, Ed Schultz said that it was all a set-up, and Ed would never state anything but the absolute truth. Right?

Well if Jim Norton said it, it MUST be so.

Can’t Andrew Breitbart ever smile? He is one intense dude.

How would he know?
got a grip

Still waiting for Mr. Ed’s apology, who went on national television with an accusation supported with no facts or proof, amazaingly at a time when part of the original story is how the left previously falsely accused Britbart of being the hacker with no facts or proof. Ed finished with the comment that Breitbart has “lost all rights to his temporary status as a journalist.” A journalist, yoo know, like Ed.

Umm perhaps because Norton is also a co-host of the O&A show and has been for over a decade now. Not to mention he was there when it all went down.

Or are you falling for the crazy conspiracy theory that this was all planned out over drinks the night before?
Just my Opinion

Makes no difference!
If the little turd Weiner had not put it
out there, none of this conversation would be taking place, now, would it?
Don’t shoot the messenger folks.
Brietbart is the hero in this one.
Imagine IF this had been a Republican Congressman!
And don’t give me the Vitter BS.
He didn’t send pics of his dick over the net!!!!!!!!
Timmmeeh

Breitbart was especially angry when Opie and Anthony tied his shoes together and gave him nuggies. I bet Breitbart got beat up a lot in HS…what did he expect? Dope.

I subscribe to no theory such as that but a single phone call by Britebart to either of those clowns, at any time in advance, to arrange for Britebart to “mishandle” the image, would have taken ten seconds. Let’s say that he did not do it on purpose, that’s possible. Its also possible that there was a wink and a nod. Since Britebart was the custodian, he is responsible. Isn’t the conservative social view on that?

Its easy for a liberal to believe this because its exactly what they would do.

My favorite is crazy conspiracy theory is Joy Behar saying “How do we know its not Andrew Breitbart’s penis?”

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/barbara-walters-found-x-rated-photo-of-rep-weiners-genitals-flattering/comment-page-3/#comments

When your political ideology is based on moral relativism and a cynical ends-justify-the-means approach to the truth, believing in conspiracies is a byproduct of that.
Timmmeeh

I personally think the information age makes all these scandals soooo much better than the past. Imagine if we have text messaging, multi-media messaging and email when Clinton, McCain, Gary Hart, Gingrich, and all the other creeps of yester-year were fooling around? I bet every single one would have texted some messed up crap, and we’d even have a penis pic or two (one Clinton, of course). Hahahahaha.
WillP

I would be furious too if someone broke my trust. Everyone is a media whore in today’s world. People will say or do ANYTHING for a bite of fame. These Opie and Anthony guys are no different. They saw the opportunity. They could give a damm about breaking their word with Breitbart. They have probably more hits to their site than ever before. I hope they got the attention they desired. However, I bet they lost a friend in the process.

Kind of like the idea that Obama is secretly a muslim sleeper agent installed in the WH and waiting for a coded email so he can initiate Operation P-Funk.

http://politicallyincorrectlibertarian.wordpress.com PoliticallyIncorrectLibertarian

This is not the Breitbart scandal, scandal did not create the weiner on Photoshop, he did not hack into a computer, he didn’t steal anything. Besides, there was no blackmail, to blackmail someone you have to ask for money. Telling someone “if you lie about me I’ll release all the pictures” isn’t blackmail. Besides, the underwear picture itself was a scandal, the full frontal simply adds fuel to the fire because it shows you just how desperate he is.

Come on, people, what happened to discretion? When Barney Frank housed a hooker in his office he didn’t send a press release. When Barney is in the mood he simply hires somebody. Or look at JFK, he used the secret service to keep his sex life private (the media also collaborated, a-holes!).

“Its easy for a liberal to believe this because its exactly what they would do.” – wow, talk about bigoted stereotypes. BarneyFranken, your animosity towards those with differing beliefs than yours is palpable.

You guys are acting as if Breitbart is off the hook now. None of this explains why he’s walking around with a photo of his anthony’s weiner on his phone. (Suspect) And you mean to tell me he didn’t want to put Weiner’s family through that embarassment, but he was willing to risk showing it to a couple of shock jocks? gimme a break.
bealzebubba

Okay, here’s my question to all of you that have been outraged about this story from the beginning: what outrages you the most?

The lie or the behavior?
bealzebubba

..and by “behavior”, I mean the act of sexting and the photos.
Timmmeeh

To me, the lie is worst. The behavior is creepy…but I think it is more of a betrayal for his wife than his constituency. I feel the lie is a betrayal of his constituency.

All Breitbart is guilty of is poor judgement in sharing the image with O&A.

He had it on his phone to show the skeptics in the media who didn’t believe him. Would you rather he carried around a polaroid? Is there really any doubt that the lefty media would’ve published the photo if it were of one their opponents?

Now, in light of the Tommy Christopher / Kirsten Powers article and Breitbart’s point about how this sort of behavior opens up politicians to blackmail I think the lying is the least of our concerns.

The lie and then the attempted smear of Breitbart as the hacker. The MSM’s willingness to run with the smear. Then the 8 hour media tour where he lied to everyone’s face again and again. The poor judgement of someone in power. The possible blackmail/extortion that such behavior could elicit. Do we really think these are the only pics/tweets? You have to know there are more out there

Really ? A ” wink and a nod ” ? If that is what libs think, why not just do it transparently ? Hell , I could see a reporter confronting Breitbart and accusing him of doing it on purpose . Claiming he lied . All he would have to do is give the ” wink ” and say is that he kept his word that HE would not release the photo and laugh . Then tell the reporter if he was worried about someone lying he should be confronting Weiner and asking him that question.

Then what do libs say ? Breitbart is a mean guy.

Actually, if anyone is going to argue that their conjectures are AS plausible as someone who was there, and who has nothing to gain or to lose from their account… consider my conjecture which makes MORE sense than the accusation that Brieitbart conspired with Opie and Andy to release this picture:

Why would Breitbart.? THAT particular picture is his smoking gun. Why release it when Weiner was already on the ropes?

Breitbart played this whole issue like a fiddle. He watched as every liberal website from Salon to Little Green Footballs did their spin as to how Weiner was telling the truth and he was corrupt. He came out with the pics AFTER Gawker started coming out with their info about the woman in Las Vegas.

Breitbart was biding hiis time. It makes NO sense that he would release his pièce de réistance
When the other photos had already caused Weiner to admit the truth.

THAT particular photo was something that Breitbart wished to save for a day in the future.

Lil Jimmy rules!
Uncle Paul is a creep.
Just my Opinion

Brietbart has nothing to apologize for. As a matter of fact, were I him
I would file a slander lawsuit against Weiner immediaitely. Might not make it all
the way, but I would sure use it to keep the story alive. Keep Weiner squirming!
Again, who initiated the damn picture?

I think any person that would send that type of personal material over the Internet
with the accompying dialogue as I read it, to complete strangers of the opposite sex,
half his age is a PERVERT with some obvious problems.
You want your Daughter working for him???

What the hell y’all mad at Brietbart for!

Exclusive: Weiner’s Messages to Teenage Girl in Delaware Draw Police Attention
By Jana Winter
Published June 10, 2011 | FoxNews.com
DEVELOPING: NEW CASTLE, Del. — Police on Friday afternoon came to the home of a 17-year-old high school junior to ask her about direct online communications she has had with Rep. Anthony Weiner.
Two officers from the New Castle County Police Department arrived at the girl’s home around 4:30 p.m. and asked to speak with the girl’s mother about the daughter’s contact with Weiner. Another officer appeared at the home a short time later. A FoxNews.com reporter was at the home when the police arrived.
The girl, whose name is being withheld because she is a minor, told FoxNews.com, “I’m doing OK.”
The police left the home after about 30 minutes, followed by the daughter and mother, who left in a separate car. It was not clear if the mother and daughter were going to continue the conversation with police at another location.

Shiznap!

Something tells me that if Rachel is totally fine with the most extreme forms of dishonesty; married men sexting with strangers, porn stars and young women; pornographers, and tweeting your sex organs…she’s probably not going to have a problem with grown men and women sexting with high school girls.

Just a hunch. I mean if you’re morally depraved to begin with, where do you draw the line?

Rachel will probably have the publisher of “Barely Legal” on to talk about how emotionally healthy it is for 16 year old girls to flirt and sext with people in their mid 40s.

There is a difference between bigotry or prejudice and speaking in generalities. I am not pre-judging anything- Im judging after the fact.

Or do you have a problem with the word liberal- do you consider it an insult?

I didnt use hostile invectives or Ad hominem attacks, so I was hardly full of animus as you claim. Just because you dont like to hear what I said doesn’t make me a bigot.

I suggest you learn the meaning of a word before you use it.

http://societyfordaintydamsels.wordpress.com Lynda Appell

I am with Timmmeeh who wrote “To me the lie is worst. I am in no way condoning Anthony Weiner’s sexting , and other at the very least questionable sexual behavior. If he is is doing or planned to do anything sexually immoral with an underaged teenaged girl than that’s a whole other matter. What grown people do to each other, if its consensual is okay but never for somebody who is legally a minor. That is why I hate child porn so much. At least adults can decide for themselves. I wonder if Weiner should be given a psychiatric exam. OTOH I’m not a mental health professional but this seems to me smacks of sexual compulsive behavior or manic.
Tedderman

Stephen Colbert offered a clip of Breitbart who claimed Opie and Anthony told him there were no cameras in the studio. Breitbart was on camera in the O & A studio while a man with a professional camera sits down right behind him outside the glass enclosure where the show airs. Also, given the perspective of the “picture” in question, it seems hard to believe the “picture” could have been taken without Breitbart’s knowledge. One other dimension to this is, the picture of a picture cannot be confirmed in any way other than visually. None of the electronic markers are able to be examined. There has to be an investigation of the photo on Breitbart’s camera before it can be deemed legitimate.

Breitbart is upset because he doesn’t have his little blackmail tool (no pun intended).

If anything proves without a doubt that Mediaite is nothing more than a paid moutpiece for Andrew Breitbarts cheap and dishonest BS, I can say WITH ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY, that this article most definitely does.

BTW, who the hell is Jim Norton and why should anyone care?

And, yes, Breitbart is still a liar (and a depraved emotional vampire to boot)… he lies about Sherrod, he lied about ACORN, his protege lies about NPR, his protege lied about the Census, his protege tried to frame Abbie Boudreau with a sex scandal, etc… The only thing Andrew Breitbart can honestly claim to have gotten right is a crotch-shot on the net.

As Stephen Colbert rightly stated, getting 1 out of 5 is hardly a big score, and all this story does is make Breitbart “the Edward R. Murrow of congressional wang photos.”

The fact that a bunch of grown men leering over a picture of penis is somehow shaping the nation’s destiny ought to scare you all.

Weiner might be a uncontrollable horn dog, but that horn dog got the Zadroga Bill passed when the GOP were firmly dead against it.

While the MSM (including Mediaite) decided to ignore the fact that the GOP was holding the Zadropga Bill hostage to Bush Tax cuts (so much for so-called “liberal bias”), that same horn dog came in fighting for 9-11 first responders, when no one esle would.

Meanwhile, the only things Andrew Breitbart can claim to have done is disenfranchise the homeless and the impoverished by striking down ACORN through lies and deceit, attacked Special Ed teachers, lied about Shirley Sherrod, lied about NPR, lied about his own words and deeds, lied about Planned Parenthood, etc…

The only thing Breitbart seems to do right is lie, and sniff out crotch shots.
SirReal

The pervert Weiner should change his first name to Seymour! ha-ha Seymour Weiner; love it!
BTW, if anyone thinks that Briebart has an ounce of honesty in his body you are crazy. Weiner and Brietbart deserve each other – they are both a couple of slime balls.
AndyZNYer

I believe Breitbart, but come on – Opie and Anthony?? Is this a surprise? Of all the shock jocks, etc – they have the LEAST amount of respectability and honor (true, this is grading on a scale, but…)…

He should have known better.

Interesting how many liberals are attacking Breitbart but nobody says anything about his falsely being charged with both lying and hacking by Weiner and his apologists at first…how many of those attacking him now apologized or even acknowledged their false allegations??

And, btw, I’m a NYC Democrat (Queens – the district right next to Weiner’s)…Weiner has to go…he is NOT helping his constituents by allowing this carnival to continue…we need to talk about Lybia, Syria, the national debt…JOBS…if he was a Republican, he’d be gone by now…we Dem’s should expect no less…
