Gene Simmons banned from Fox News

Daily Beast.
Kiss frontman Gene Simmons—until this week, a favorite guest on Fox News and Fox Business Network programs, which couldn’t get enough of his supposedly outrageous rock-star antics mixed with conservative politics—has been banned for life from the right-leaning cable channels.
I did not know that.
Things seemed to be going well enough when Simmons jumped up from the Fox & Friends couch to help meteorologist Janice Dean do her weather report—a delighted Dean later posted video on her Twitter feed—and then sat on a panel with Bartiromo, who asked his views on the Harvey Weinstein sexual-misconduct scandal.
I had no idea. I like Gene Simmons a lot but he seems a poor match for the chinos and top siders crowd. What were they thinking? Gene Simmons expressed conservative principles therefore Gene Simmons will be a good match for FOX culture?

Fools!

Gene Simmons did other disqualifying things explained at the link but here is my favorite part of his un-corporation like antics. It kills me.
...and then bopped two employees on the head with his book, making derisive comments about their comparative intelligence according to the sound their heads made when struck.
That cracks me up all over again. He had too much fun and corporation types cannot take it.

The item at Daily Beast is updated with an apology from Gene Simmons.

We are ruled by humorless fun sponges. Who takes Gene Simmons seriously enough to be concerned that he poses a threat and needs to be banished?

The Murdoch brothers strike again.

PS His wife of many years is Shannon Tweed of OMG fame. THIS guy is living the dream.

Simmons is a lovable bandito.

Never complain; never explain: that's Gene.

Which used to be the code of all the movers and shakers.

BEFORE the Playboy model wife of Kiss hell-raiser Gene Simmons agreed to marry
him after 28 years’ dating, she had one demand.

Shannon Tweed insisted the 66-year-old rocker, who admits to bedding almost
5,000 groupies, must burn his secret collection of sex snaps.

And the bonfire at their home in Los Angeles went on for days.

I call them joyless, humorless, miserable Richards.
