We won’t hold our breath. But, Montel Williams didn’t wait: He rightly took on the offensive and frankly despicable article published by Salon. As Twitchy readers know, Salon wants us to “stop worshipping men in uniform” and it lamented calling America’s bravest “heroes.” Worse: Salon has unbelievably referred to rapper Ol’ Dirty Bastard as a hero and the author of the Salon piece has called Jesse Jackson a hero elsewhere. Enraging.
Montel Williams gave both Salon and the author the business. And it was awesome.

@Montel_Williams We as veterans fought for his right to say what he wants. I dont agree with what he said but it is his right.
