Publisher Description

From the irreverent star of Fox News’s Red Eye and The Five, hilarious observations on the manufactured outrage of an oversensitive, wussified culture. Greg Gutfeld hates artificial tolerance. At the root of every single major political conflict is the annoying coddling Americans must endure of these harebrained liberal hypocrisies. In fact, most of the time liberals uses the mantle of tolerance as a guise for their pathetic intolerance. And what we really need is smart intolerance, or as Gutfeld reminds us, what we used to call common sense. The Joy of Hate tackles this conundrum head on--replacing the idiocy of open-mindness with a shrewd judgmentalism that rejects stupid ideas, notions, and people. With countless examples grabbed from the headlines, Gutfeld provides readers with the enormous tally of what pisses us all off. For example: - The double standard: You can make fun of Christians, but God forbid Muslims. It's okay to call a woman any name imaginable, as long as she's a Republican. And no problem if you're a bigot, as long as you're politically correct about it.  - The demonizing of the Tea Party and romanticizing of the Occupy Wall Streeters. - The media who are always offended (see MSNBC lineup) - How critics of Obamacare or illegal immigration are somehow immediately labeled racists. - The endless debate over the Ground Zero Mosque (which Gutfeld planned to open a Muslim gay bar next to). - As well as pretentious music criticism, slow-moving ceiling fans, and snotty restaurant hostesses. Funny and sarcastic to the point of being mean (but in a nice way), The Joy of Hate points out the true jerks in this society and tells them all off.

"HILARIOUS!!!! This guy is so funny and it was hands down the best political type book I've ever read. I imagined his voice reading it as if he was doing a monologue from his TV show. Great book that was very fair and balanced. I loved that he took things from both sides of the isle and brought them down to earth for everyone. There was a bit of language (he uses the F word more than a few times) and while that surprised me, it's easy to read over. (I'm not a fan of swearing) I recommend this book to everyone!"

    " Not much new in here for me, but I enjoyed it anyway. I think the people who should read this and take it to heart are the last ones who would ever would. Too bad. Just goes to prove the premise. "

    " Loved it. If you love his monologues on Red Eye, you will like this book. A little more insightful than an episode of Red Eye with just as much wit. "

    " This is mostly Gutfeld being Gutfeld. Funny, witty, and mostly spot on. He does offer a form of solution to problems from time to time, but it is basically a 226 page tweet without Twitter....an elongated version of his highly-charged editorials on 'The Five'. "

    " Greg Gutfeld has a unique sense of humor. If you watch Fox "The Five" and "Red Eye" you will get a feel for Greg's humor. His book follows his humor. His presentation of matrial is from a unique perspective and will make you think about current aspects of our society. "

    " Gutfeld has a wonderful sense of humor for the political world. Political satire is done only by conservatives it seems. "

    " Hmmm. Parts were really funny, but ultimately despite the odd funny part, it just got tiring to read a guy whining about being tired of other people whining. The black/white politics will appeal or not depending upon the reader's leaning I guess. "

    " Fabulous book. I've always loved Greg Gutfeld and was not disappointed. Like his television persona, his writing was witty and bright. Particularly, I enjoyed his many hilarious examples of "repressive tolerance" (a beautiful oxymoron, I think). "

    " Read this book. Read it. It's a rare combination of insightful, funny, well-written and easy to read. Greg takes the reader to a point of view that 95% of political authors don't go to, and does it all with a penchant for just the right one liner to end a chapter with. So read the damn book. "

    " Greg humorously disarms the "tolerate" and the "entitles" class of America, i.e., the people who want to give away other people's stuff. If you enjoy Greg on The Five, you'll love The Joy of Hate. "
