 Don’t you dare insult our valued Hollywood stars!  . . . "After the Twitter back-and-forth, Saad wrote up an essay for Psychology Today (which you can find archived here) in which he quoted at length from their exchange. He concluded that Rogen is a “hypocritical fraud” and that he and the other leftists in his world are “vacuous parasitic virtue-signalers”:

"Remarkably, Stelter goes on to suggest that Fox News’ ratings struggles are the fault of former President Donald Trump.

“ 'Is this Trump’s fault?” he opined, asking a question that likely runs through his head every morning, noon, and night.
