If you couldn’t tell from before, I like Anthony Bourdain. A lot. I appreciate his honesty and wit, and more than anything I appreciate his gives-no-fucks attitude. He’s been on a Twitter tear since the Weinstein news broke. And when the hits keep on coming (Donald Trump, Roger Ailes, Bill O’Reilly, Eric Bolling, Bryan Singer, Devin Faraci, Andy Puzder, Casey Affleck, Ben Affleck, Steven Seagal, Oliver Stone, Roy Price, Andy Signore, et cetera, et cetera, et forevercetera) having a loud supporter such as Bourdain is encouraging. Particularly when other male voices have been the weakest of sauces.

For decades major news outfits spiked, ignored reporting and in some cases, actively enabled Harvey Weinstein. A hard look back in is order

All the ugly stories about Weinstein were ignored ,suppressed until a few, heroic women came forward and went on record. They were vilified

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 12, 2017

…and some are STILL being vilified. @rosemcgowan and others were under tremendous pressure, threatened, maligned, blacklisted

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 12, 2017

And yes. I’m angry. And yes, I’m angry when others outrage and nausea doesn’t match my own and there are HW accomplices yet to be unmasked

Worth mentioning that @asiargento was talking to journalists and making film about what happened to her back 90’s.
Response? Zero .

. @asiaargento talked to journalists about what happened to her and made a film about it in the ‘90’s. Response? Crickets.

And let’s not kid ourselves. NewsCorp and the NYPost in particular have a lot to answer for.

Of all the press's failures and complicity through the years, here's the worst example of direct enabling Weinstein https://t.co/JKaadphxrc

He’s also starting to go after the Italian press because #fakenews isn’t just an American tradition:

How the Italian press —LIBERO in particilar, treats victims of sexual assault is unbelievable. Pigs and dogs. @asiaargento

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 13, 2017

Italy's LIBERO newspaper delivers a thin, watery burst of shit that blows right back in their face. Fire the pig who wrote abt @AsiaArgento

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 13, 2017

LIBERO should be the shame of Italy. Incredible that any paper could write this way about a victim of rape and decades of terrorization

I think it would be remiss of me not to mention his tweets about Hillary Clinton. She sat down with Fareed Zakaria for an interview and Anthony Bourdain was less than impressed with the result.

And I have to say, Hillary's interview with Fareed Zakaria was shameful in its deflection and its disingenuousness.

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 11, 2017

know what Hillary Clinton is NOT? She's not stupid. Or unsophisticated about the world. The Weinstein stories had been out there for years

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 11, 2017

Mindless Hillary hate aside, this was a terrible response to questions about a "friend" who's been tormenting women for decades.

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 11, 2017

I have met Hillary Clinton. I liked her. I admired much about her. This interview was a real disappointment.

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 11, 2017

And please..this is not about blame or equivalency . My feelings about Mr. Trump are well known. No one should take satisfaction from this

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 12, 2017

Hillary is CLEARLY not responsible for anything Weinstein Thats screamingly obvious. Her response to questions though has been uninspiring

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 12, 2017

I can assure you that the victims of Mr. Weinstein's three decades of predatory behavior are disappointed too. I'm sitting next to one.

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 12, 2017

Secretary Clinton was one of the most intelligent, well prepared, well briefed politicians ever. So, yes. I'd hoped for a better response

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 12, 2017

And having just gone through thousands of threats from Pepe the frog and Russian trolls, it's only fair to now get it from the other side .

— Anthony Bourdain (@Bourdain) October 12, 2017

In one corner there are people who are upset with these tweets and are coming to Hillary Clinton’s defense. They say that this feels like yet another attack, that this is yet another thing she is being blamed for, and they ask why is she being asked to apologize. In the other corner, others are pointing out that Anthony Bourdain didn’t blame her and he didn’t ask her to apologize, that he’s merely disappointed in the interview, disappointed with the answers she gave.

He does know how to end a good Twitter row:

At least when the left is angry with me on twitter, they can spell
