I wonder if he was also one of those long-range gynecologists when people were spinning conspiracy theories about Sarah Palin's kids? Which were totally totally not the same as all that horrid bigoted "Birther" crap about Obama, of course.

Legitimate read on our pal Kurt, but there is no dimension in which Sarah Palin and her spawn aren't at least probationary level cows. Her entire existence has been consumed by the irony of supporting abstinence only sex education while your own kids pump out multitudes of children outside of wedlock.

Is Kurt of all people really going to discuss someone else being mentally-ill? Kurt, you're so batshit insane that your entire industry, which is an industry well known for egotistical and manipulative douchebags, has blacklisted you because of it.

In Kurt's fragile mind, mental illness is worthy of scorn, which is why he accuses everyone from Trump to Kanye to Kyle Kashuv of being "sick". Meanwhile, his problems are the result of a physical illness, and therefore his mental fitness can never be questioned. He's like Chuck from "Better Call Saul", trembling and screaming "I am NOT crazy! You're crazy!"

She's probably only with him for the $$$$$ at this point.

What $$$$$? I didn't have the impression that his book was raking in the bucks, but I admit I've not been following it closely.

I mean... he probably hasn't made anything good in awhile. But he probably did make something that's at least considered decent at some point in his life. Bare in mind he was at one point something of a "noted" journalist for some big companies. He made plenty of appearances on news programs (that weren't Tucker Carlson), had a couple of books published and even had one of his books turned into a movie starring Matt Damon.

It's also worth pointing out that the check seen in the Mister Metokur video that Kurt wrote for the child pornography story was for a couple thousand dollars. Kurt has likely made a good amount of money in his life. Whether or not he was smart enough with his finances to save it is another question.

It's also worth pointing out that the check seen in the Mister Metokur video that Kurt wrote for the child pornography story was for a couple thousand dollars.

He wrote more than one check, and then when caught with the first one (that was the $2,000), he still managed to "forget" about paying him another $1,184 using a fake name the other time.

 

[AprilRains]

I'm not sure that writing large checks for child porn is a convincing demonstration of wealth and prudence, but okay.

He had a series of jobs and positions you just don't get unless you come from privilege, and got away with shit you don't get away with as a normal person. A normal person who did the shit he's done would be in prison. Even without the CP shit, there's the blackmail and extortion of that other journalist, and a series of embarrassments for anyone who has employed him.

Portfolio was not a commercial success, and was closed in April 2009. The failure of such a high-profile project was seen as a major setback for Condé Nast.

Vanity Fairdistanced itself from Eichenwald in April 2018; a spokesperson for the magazine told The Hill, "Kurt Eichenwald is not a contributing editor at Vanity Fair."

Sputnik's Weekend Editor Bill Moran filed a lawsuit against Newsweek on 25 January 2017, alleging that Eichenwald fabricated two articles ("Dear Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, I am not Sidney Blumenthal" and "How I Got Slimed by Russian Propaganda Site Sputnik") claiming that Moran colluded with Russia and the Trump campaign, and that when confronted by Moran about these two articles Eichenwald allegedly offered Moran a job to stay quiet and warned him "if you go public you’ll regret it".

This is just shit from his Wikipedia article that has managed to stay there despite him being a litigious little monkey boy who constantly threatens lawsuits, and has survived Wiki's ludicrously tough BLP policy.

 

[Apteryx Owenii]

How's his job hunting going by the way? Has anyone been dumb enough to hire his ass? Or is his wife still supporting him?

I don't know why anyone would hire someone that basically calls their previous employers criminals on twitter. He's taking the Rebecca Gerber \ Jessica Price path of joblessness.

 

[Dr. Tran]

Got an alert on my phone for some reason that said Kurt's new memoir is out. Anyone willing to bite the bullet on that one?

I don't really know that much about epilepsy, but I know that Eichenwald is retarded beyond belief, meaning I know the incident in question didn't actually happen. However, regarding epilepsy, is that actually how it works? Can you just send a gif and make people fall to the floor and start having a seizure leading to death? It sounds pretty fantastical, but again, I'm extremely low knowledge when it comes to epilepsy.

 

[bippu_as_fuck_ls400]

As someone who likely views himself as "tech savvy", why doesn't he just block autoplaying gifs in his browser?

That's a rhetorical question if you're reading this Kurt, we all know the answer.

Kurt's a journalist, right? You'd think someone who's paid to analyze situations and take every detail into consideration when building a conclusion would've caught that Kanye said he 'felt' like a superhero. Either Kurt's more incompetent at his job than I thought, or he is purposefully framing Kanye as overly delusional just because he is a Trump supporter.

Either way, this is like someone in a mental asylum with a straitjacket and everything calling someone insane. I'm not sure Kurt's realized that everyone thinks he's actually handicapped. He is not, in any possible way whatsoever, someone who has legitimacy to his claims that someone is fucked in the head. No one believes him when he says he's having a seizure, no one's going to believe this shit. He acts like a cunt, expects to get pity points for his illness, and wants to seem like a reputable, honest public figure. It's fucking laughable.

Apparently it's extremely rare, but it would appear that it's not completely impossible

It is commonly acknowledged that certain gifs can cause seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Just three per cent of epileptics suffer with photosensitivity – meaning flashing or flickering lights induce their seizures. Triggers include everything from ceiling fans, interactive whiteboards, and Christmas tree lights as well as, of course, gifs.

“Any flashing image between 5-25 Hertz (flashes per second) has the potential to trigger a seizure in someone who is photosensitive, although this is very rare,” says Professor Ley Sander, a medical director at the Epilepsy Society and professor of neurology at University College London. “People who are photosensitive should be very cautious when online as the internet and social media are full of flashing images.”

However, like you said, this is Eichenwald we're talking about, so it's very unlikely that he actually is part of that very small group ...

 

[Jigglyjogglers]

Is there even any proof that Eichenwald was at, or has ever been at, a fundraiser for epilepsy? One where the donations didn't benefit him anyway.

That's a rhetorical question if you're reading this Kurt, we all know the answer.

He says it didn't autoplay so maybe he did. It won't stop him from trying to make a federal case of it... literally.

 

[BubbleButt]

I bet he felt like a big tough guy writing out those tweets.

Unfortunately he still sounds like Kurt Eichenwald. How anyone can take that shit seriously is a fucking headscratcher to me.
