The NY Times Takes A "Moment" To Make Fun Of Michael C Hall

Filed under: Icky Icky Poo > Twitter

Of all the news publications, you'd think the New York Times would know Dexter's Michael C. Hall has been battling cancer, right?

Nope!

The Time's Moment blog was tweeting during the Golden Globe awards on Sunday night and made this unnecessary and completely insensitive comment about the cancer stricken actor:

Is Michael C. Hall playing Bob Marley in an upcoming movie? Don't get the hat or what he is hiding under it.

What a fucking moron!

We assume the twat got bombarded with an overwhelming and mostly angry response from followers and later tweeted a half ass apology:

So sorry that Michael C. Hall has had cancer. Thanks for clarifying why he is wearing a knitted skull cap.

Idiot!

      All types of fail.



    5. 105

      Why the pretend "outrage" fatass? You do the same shit EVERY day. At least in their apology they didn't accuse him of faking it.

      Re: rraacchh – Excellent comment and I could not agree more. I guess hoping this site will ever change is an exercise in futility. I too have removed it from my favorites as of today and won't be coming back. The irony of this is that Perez is always tweeting about positive energy and sending lots of "light and love". I guess only his kiss ass friends or other gays are entitled to those things. I guess that equal rights and being treated fairly only comes into play when it's convenient for him.



    9. 109

      You're really calling another person a moron??? You were the one who reported Michael Jackson was faking illness for publicity, when he died!



    10. 110

      Frankly, with some of the outfits celebs wear today, I'm not surprised that he thought fashion statement before cancer. Michael looks healthier than a lot of cancer patients - if you're looking for it, you can definitely see the 'moon face' side effect of the treatment, but other than that he looks like he's holding up pretty well. I really hope that's the case. He said he was in remission, but remission does not equal cancer-free, unfortunately, and chemotherapy/radiation will have to be continued for a while. Fortunately, it's VERY treatable when detected early.

      Anyway. This slip up was insensitive, but not intentionally so.

      My prayers are with Michael.



    11. 111

      Wow that's terrible!



    12. 112

      What a dumbass.
      What the hell is wrong with the NY Times? Remember when they hired a fake reporter who just wrote a bunch of lies? LOL, dumbasses.



    13. 113

      That is what happens with shallow, self involved twats.
      They make money off the pain and humiliation of others.

      Just like PEREZ HILTON and his shabby, twatty cheap shots at women and children and non gays because he wants more money, fame..or infamy.

      Oh…and Castro. How is he Mario?? Any "trusted" news on him, asshole?
      Rot in hell, Hilton.



    14. 114

      that humor harold should know that he can get cancer any minute in his life.



    15. 115

      The most ironic/moronic part of this story is that Perez or his idiot writers have the nerve to call a journalist on the carpet for saying something inappropriate….GET REAL…this website has NO credibility. Doesnt mean its not fun occasionally. But lets be REAL



    16. 116

      You're no different from them. When Michael Jackson was being brought to the hospital you made also made a comment against him. And then he died, did you even apologize for that comment you made? You are such a hypocrite Perez.



    17. 117

      what a douche!!!!



    18. 118

      It sounds like a comment you would normally make, Perez. Ignorant, ill informed, and mean.



    19. 119

      What.. Perez you are calling Someone else out.. When Micheal jackson Died you said it was a publicity stunt..
      I agree this is horribe .. but you and this douche bag have some thing in common…



    20. 120

      Although the Times blogger was callous in his comment, still the hat was a poor choice…go bald or where a rug…that simple…the hat just doesn't cut it at an awards show…regardless of your situation…no excuses! Cancer won't even work, OK?

      What a Knobhead! These reporters walk around with their heads up their arse 50% of the time and make up shit the remaininng 50%.
      Well done to Michael C Hall for showing up and congrats on the award…he deserves it…Dexter is an awesome show!



    22. 122

      Bob marley???
      He think he is good great or unbeatable????
      blablabla wat you want…but bob marley



    23. 123

      u expect it from perezhilton.com but not from new york times fkin idiots!!!! and wat a real shitty apology!!!!!!!!



    24. 124

      Bloody disgusting, there grubs that call themselves jurnos, why could they not listen to what he said? The author of that freaking crap should be sacked, then placed in the stocks to have crap thrown at them.



    25. 125

      Stupid comment and I bet he's kicking his own ass and if not, the NYT will…

      At least we can say that Michael C. Hall looks well. I am glad for that. I thought he looked great and I hope he will remain in full remission and done with treatment soon.

      I was so thrilled to see him win for 'Dexter'(and Lithgow too). He is an amazing actor and so deserved it. Made my whole night. I was disappointed that the show didn't win..it should have. Best show on right now and not excited to watch anything else(even last season of Lost)!



    26. 126

      at least they had enough class to apologize, unlike the jackass who runs this site who makes comments like this ON A DAILY BASIS and has never apologized for a thing; even when he gets his ass handed to him for making asshole comments about children.



    27. 127

      I love this guy! he just has a like-ability factor that can't be ignored. No wonder they chose him to play a serial killer. And what great acting chops! Even if he didn't have cancer and he wore that acp, WHO THE F*CK CARES! Its the golden globes, focus on the talent u moron!



    28. 128

      Pot meet kettle perez ghost writer!



    29. 129

      Oh c'mon people. He did get out of doing the concerts at the O2!!

      Stupid thing to say by the NYT reporter, but I doubt the NYT makes celebrity news its priority.

      Get well soon, Michael.



    30. 130

      NYT, the NEW YORK TIMES, THE GREAT NEW YORK TIMES -when I was younger, in high school, the paper was THE paper. We had to get the SUNDAY edition. Back in the 80s, if you had a bad back, you needed someone else to go get that paper. It had EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING. uptown, downtown, arts, real estate, pages of jobs, auctions, views (world views, not just liberal). NOW the times is a joke that will get a bail out with the rest of the papers that support obama



    31. 131

      not surprising coming from the Times



    32. 132

      I read about this yesterday… NYT wasn't the only ones! I don't remember who the others were, but I read about a few people commenting on the "fashion" of his hat. Horrible…. Thinking before speaking (or blogging) is a lost art….



    33. 133

      YOU are the most two faced!!! shit poker!!!! sausage sucker!!! I’ve ever met Perez!!! How many vile shits have come out of your fingers!!! Many! And you act like you’re the most compensate motherfucker ever! Well guess what? you’re not!!! YOU MAKE ME SICK! Not only do you have a REVOLTING FACE but also a HORRENDOUS PERSONALITY! Kill yourself!! Now!!!



    34. 134

      Everyone makes mistakes–even the NY Times. He honestly didn't know and he later apologized. What is your problem Perez? You make more stupid assumptions than any other journalist I read. Most of the time you don't even admit you were wrong.



    35. 135

      and they wonder why they are having a hard time staying in business



    36. 136

      Re: el polacko
      you are clearly a reject



    37. 137

      Re: hateliars – How do the NY times support Obama? They were the ones that printed controversial picture of Obama?

      Get well son Michael! Totally deserved that award!



    38. 138

      What a DILLHOLE! The person who said that should be forced to shave his/her head and then be fired. Incompetence and ignorance. There were plenty of opportunities for mocking those who truly deserved it at the GG. MCH did NOT deserve it. I don't watch the show and didn't know he had cancer. It's sad and my heart goes out to him. Makes me want to start watching Dexter. Get well!!

      142

      Shouldn't you know things like this as a reporter????



    43. 143

      Have you apologized potato body for the 'cold feet' statement when Michael Jackson died?
      No? then STFU stupid asshole, you have no right to criticize the same actions on the rest of the humanity.
      PENDEJO



    44. 144

      Pot, have you met Kettle??? You f'n ass, you have a short memory?? You said awful things about Brittany Murphy, like "Loopy?". dipsh*t. Get better Michael, my dad loves your show xxx



    45. 145

      Re: Zombie Hitler – Wow, exactly my thoughts!



    46. 146

      Sounds like something you would say/do.



    47. 147

      The Times Blogger should have asked himself first WHY Michael C. Hall would be wearing a scull cap to an awards event but obviously he was in too much of a hurry to post his smart ass comment. Looking at the pic-it seems obvious to me that he has lost his hair but it seems that blogger isn't exactly astute enough to notice that. He might be more careful with his sharp tongue next time…



    48. 148

      what a bitch!!! so direspectful!!! i can't belive it!!
      & Michael C. Hall looking good! can't wait for new season of dexter



    49. 149

      that make me sad…
      fucking asshole!!!



    50. 150

      what an asshole! That's no joke. He should be fired for being such an IDIOT



    51. 151

      Good thing you've never done anything remotely similar to this. Good thing you never questioned the death of Michael Jackson, and considered his heart attack to be "dubious".



    52. 152

      Re: el polacko – You really need to grow the eff up!!!! He is battling cancer and you find the need to comment on his hat???? WTF!!!!!
      I hope Michael has a speed recovery!!!!!



    53. 153

      I'm sorry but the blogger for the NY Times is a complete moron!!!!! Maybe he should have done research before making fun of somone! Even if he weren't aware he had cancer before you can still tell he was sick. The comment was rude and uncalled for and I wouldn't accept his apology!



    54. 154

      Gee, even if you weren't aware there's no reason to make a comment - use your common sense to figure that there might be something going on that you do not know. People are so dumb. You don't need to comment on everything, you don't need to form opinions on things that you haven't any of the answers to.

      158

      It's sad that's the first thing that came to their minds. The first thing I thought was that he was might be in chemo… I think most people thought that way.



    59. 159

      Re: Zombie Hitler – LMFAO best comment!



    60. 160

      i think everyone who called out perez said everything i had to say and couldn't agree more with your comments this is why i come one this site you people fucking crack me up! but i will say this-screw you perez!



    61. 161

      You have some nerve. You do that every day, and never apologize.
      Remember what happened with Michael Jackson?!



    62. 162

      that a-hole needs to get fired! o_O



    63. 163

      at least he apologized..for the longest time you didn't apologize for making fun of people's children



    64. 164

      Re: Zombie Hitler – I was crying I was laughing so fucking hard when i read this! Oh and to all you LOSERS out there who come on here to defend Perez, get a life, he doesnt care about you so why do you care so much about him. Quite honestly he is a waste of space and the world would be better off if this 2 day old gossip site went down the tubes and we NEVER saw or heard from Perez again. Most of the things that are posted on here is him copying from another site, or magazine days after it hits the shelves. His grammar sucks. You always talk about so and so's 15 min almost up and who cares about this or that celebrity, well someone does. You are more hated then loved and I cant wait to see the day when your 15 min are up. I just dont get why your celebrity gossip has to be sooooooo cruel. Se



    65. 165

      oh yeah… that just infuriated me. really really badly. my fingers are crossed strongly that this moron got the boot. ugh.. so angry over that.



    66. 166

      hope that dude gets cancer…soo happy he Michael got a golden globe ROCK ON!!!
