Geraldo Rivera came to the defense of embattled celebrity Alec Baldwin with a bizarre claim the the term "Cocksucking Faggot" was not a gay slur. Baldwin has been taking a lot of heat lately for yelling the insult at a paparazzi photographer back in November.
During an appearance on Sean Hannity's show, Geraldo Rivera made the statement that he did not believe that the term "Cocksucking Faggot" was as much a gay slur as it was an insult with a general meaning from a forgotten era.
Geraldo Rivera said: "I don't think are insults are equal. [Where Bladwin grew up] those comments were commonplace ... you have to give people some slack."
Geraldo was aguest commentator on the show where Hannity and aguest panelist named Rachel Sklar were having a heated debate on whether A&E had erred in suspending Phil Robertson, star of Duck Dynasty, for his recent derogatory comments about the Gay community.
Geraldo Rivera further claimed that Alec Baldwin had been "drummed off MSNBC by fundamentalist gay activists".
