Ana, Brett Erlich, & Aida Rodriguez. Mar-A-lago health code violations. Pissed off NY bull sculptor. Why one man will not date hot women. 8 year old drives to McDonald’s. NC’s fight against same-sex marriage.
Regarding the Bull sculpture, I wish Ana and the rest would look pass their little world and listen to the artist’s concerns. Can you image if Ana wrote an op-ed column stating her beliefs on something she deeply believes in, and after it’s published, someone else adds a few paragraphs which totally changes the meaning of her original thought. She would be pissed. The artist who created the sculpture was making a statement, and the little girl totally changed his original intent.
Their own little world? A writing isn’t a fair comparison. Another artist doesn’t get to censor the other artists work just because it looks at it…? Stupid.
You remind me of a famous quote by Mark Twain (a writer, in case you don’t know it), “It’s better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than open it and remove all doubt.”
For people in North Carolina, who talk about being “historically correct”, they should fly the “historically correct” confederate flag; the white flag of surrender.
To play devil’s advocate: what if you were commissioned to paint something for the public and someone else came by years later and decided to paint something else on it because “the times have changed”. I wouldn’t like it.
I have a similar drive thru story!
My significant other was the DD for a bachelor party. Every one in his SUV was wasted do he drove through the McDonald’s drive thru backwards to mess with them and to make them slur their orders into the box. The McDonald’s employees were not impressed. No one has a sense of humor anymore!
Okay, let’s take this further then. Can I take a painting by Sandro Botticelli, like Birth of Venus and change her skin tone to make it “Diverse”? Can I take the Self-Portrait Torn Between Music and Painting picture and add a man in the background? What the guy is mad about is the taking of his own work and changing it. If they made a bull and a girl in front of it then he wouldn’t care but it is his original work, and the imagery of his work was altered. Disappointed in you guys, especially since you guys decided to make fun of him. Way to be mature about this.
Hey, Goldilocks and the Three Bears and Harry Potter are fantasy books, because the characters never existed. The Bible is not a fantasy book because some the events, places and people are historically accurate. It isn’t smart to report lies as facts.
Omg those douchebags in NYC are so insufferable it honestly makes my ex wife look like a catch. I would rather pick up a heroin addiction than one of those cunts
Great panel! I love this three together. So you pay $200k for the resort experience and end up eating from a substandard kitchen? Come for the dazzling chocolate cake…leave with explosive diarrhea…
This thing with the Bull sculpture…it’s easy…keep it simple and honor the intent of the artist. All one has to do, male or female, is to put oneself in the shoes of the artist. “Rub the bull’s balls”… and characterizing the artist like Ana did being mad and punching the table like that…put yourself in his shoes of the artist – what would you think seeing this spot? Maybe if people would listen to him, people would gain a deeper perception of what the sculpture means and see something they hadn’t before. There might be a way to place the two sculptures in relation to each other that would honor the intentions and meanings of both the artists rather than doing something that satisfies the subjective desires of some viewers.

Non-artists talking about what art is supposed to be. Cool.
My daughter is 6 and she can give directions all over town! Kids are amazing these days!

You’re the one in your own “little world”.

Just my two cents
So is TYT ever going to cover the YouTube demonetization of “controversial” videos or did they already and I missed it?
They did, I’m pretty sure. You’re talking about the censorship? Like, the “family friendly filter” or whatever?
I looove Fearless Girl, but if I was the bull artist I would probably be upset too haha.
Whatever his original intent was is gone because the fearless girl has given it new meaning.
An artist doesn’t get to control the reception of it. The piece wasn’t vandalized. It’s still the same bull unmoved.
Exactly.

The girl is the 99%. The girl is us.
Brett is fucking hilarious. I wish he were in the hour 2 part of the show more often.
I always wondered how no one seem to see the irony of there being a literal golden calf in the middle of Wall Street.

The artist’s intent with the bull statue is to honor the collective bullying greed and avarice of the 1%.
The artist’s intent with the little girl statue is to honor the individual courage and human dignity of resistance to oppression.
Pardon my french, but fuck the bull and his wanky maker.
Brett’s reaction while Ana was reading the story about the people who won’t date attractive people was classic. Love it when he’s on the panel.
So the President can’t even keep his prized resort up to code? Oh that’s right he’s incompetent. Never mind. Go back to what ever you’re doing.
