Kathy Griffin to Hold Press Conference to Address Controversial Photo Shoot, ‘Bullying From Trump Family’
Variety, Jun 1, 2017

Kathy Griffin and attorney Lisa Bloom have scheduled a press conference on Friday where Griffin will elaborate on her decision to do a photo shoot in which she held up a bloody prop that resembled Donald Trump’s severed head.

In a press announcement she posted on Twitter, Bloom said that she and Griffin will “explain the true motivation behind the image, and respond to the bullying from the Trump family she has endured.”

After she posted images from the photo shoot on Twitter on Tuesday, Griffin apologized, saying that she “went too far.”

So now she wants to frame herself as a victim of bullying by the Trump family?  Give me a break.

Hey now. Tampons are a wonderful invention used for the collection and disposal of biohazardous waste. Don't give Allred and Bloom that much credit!

Wonder why she does not try the same episode of hoisting the beheaded head of the nations  in North Korea, or maybe Moscow?

Maybe she will receive her accolades there instead?

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
I guess the bottom line is that when a comedian (or comedienne) isn't funny, well, she becomes just another "performance artist" or "graphic commentator".

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The whole reason Griffin did this was to get her relatively unknown name in the news. There is no way she is going to let it die quickly. She will milk it for as long as she possibly can. In fact, it is working so well she may actually do it again, with Barron Trump this time.

If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

It'd be nice if the first question at the presser was " What in the HELL were you thinking?!"

Not holding my breath though.

Kathy Griffin has hired high-powered attorney Lisa Bloom and will hold a press conference Friday to address the firestorm surrounding the viral image of herself holding the bloody, decapitated head of President Donald Trump and the “bullying” she claims she has endured at the hands of the Trump family as a result.

In a statement on her Twitter account, Bloom — who represented actress Mischa Baron in her sex tape case and former Fox News contributor Wendy Walsh in her harassment suit against the network — announced that she and Griffin would hold a press conference at 9 a.m. Friday at The Bloom Firm in Woodland Hills.

Exactly. Now for her next trick she should have a fake bloody head made of this fellow, and have herself photographed holding it triumphantly.

Kathy Griffin is the Colin Kaepernick of comedy.

What little talent they had to begin with is fading quickly, so they become political in a lame attempt to hang on to a paycheck by appealing to the fringe left.

The fringe left will accept their ruse.
But since their are already so many similar con artists out there, they will just simply fade away into the background noise, never again to make a dime in their original career.
