Yesterday we discussed the fact that Andrew Ross Sorkin’s new book mentions that during last year’s crisis, Lloyd Blankfein started boycotting CNBC (by turning his TV off), on account of “rumor-mongering” by Charlie Gasparino. Chaz conceded that while LB might’ve been unhappy with his ace reporting, the Goldman CEO never uttered the filthy term in connection with CG’s name, or even thought it. Knowing Gaspo, we figured he’d solve this problem the way he solves all his problems, namely with the busting of knee caps and the suggestion that ARS is the perfect size to fit in the trunk of a Buick. Unfortunately he’s apparently been advised to keep the brass knuckles in his dresser drawer for the time being, and has instead sought legal counsel to deal with “this guy.”
According to Chaz’s attorney Mark Schwartz, a letter has been sent to Sorkin demanding a correction and an apology for the allegedly erroneous story. Schwartz told us the apology should be printed in Vanity Fair, which ran an excerpt of the book in its November issue, along with “other mediums to which Sorkin has access.” So let’s just say ARS, fearing his life, agrees. How else should he make good with Chaz? On-air apology? Mea culpa via sky writing plane? Errand boy for a year, and all that that entails?
pussy!
He looks so regal in that picture.

Chucky v. Lloyd, each has to inhale 2lbs of the other’s favorite ethnic foods, so that’d be what, sopresat for Lloyd and Gefilte fish for Chucky? First to finish/not puke wins.
fuck hugh.

He should become his butler for a year – just like John Ritter’s cousin on the Seinfeld pilot!
The irony of thin-skinned, preening, egotistical Chaz demanding an apology for an “allegedly” erroneous story is great.
I hope the response is something to the effect of, “Fuck off, sue me.”
LOL.
@anal- this is between charlie and sorkin
what a fag

There would be a simple way to make this go away. It would be to publish a very favorable review of Chaz’ book.
I hope they go the “Fuck off” route, though.

My professional recommendation is to make Lloyd Blankfein pre-order and pre-pay for 100,000 copies of Gaspo’s next book such that the rest of the world is safe from the harm of hearing Chazza’s shameless self-promotion in every lead-in, report and sign off of his CNBC breaking stories.
@15 I like it but you fail to note that this is cg v sorkin, no cg v blankfein, who chaz seems to be under the impression is a friend of his and would never say anything bad about him.
CG vs Sorkin: cage match. loser has to eat a copy of his own book.
ARS should right a book on CNBC – a nice 300 page ARC tracing the salad days of Ronny’s FoF to Maria giving BB a handjob at a correspondents dinner, and closing with a confirmation that Chaz really is Gerlado Rivera.
ars is a thug and a blowhard.
Co host an ethnic celebrity charity boxing event, that culminates in them going 15 rounds. The tag for this article would be an appropriate name for the tournament. All pay-per-view proceeds could go the the charity of Chaz’s choice.
@16– Mea culpa and mea maxima culpa, Lloyd. Lost interest in the grievance when I read about turning off the channel.
N.B.- Be sympathetic to my speed reading because it’s a well know fact that people are turned off of CNBC for lesser reasons than alleged mis-reporting.
Ok, so I refine my professional opinion to forcing ARS to narrate every single one of Gazza’s books for Chazzy’s books-on-tape product line.
LB could crush Chaz with his pinky!

What’s funny is that the mincing guinea cock sucker always reads the comments on DB stories about him. Isn’t that right? Look out for a blue video titled “The Italian Scallion”. Charlie had a minor cameo when he was young and needed the money.
I heard the video of Blankfein turning off his TV was a hoax anyway. If you look closely, you see that “CHANNEL X” is actually Fox News, and that the TV wasn’t even Lloyd’s at all. Also, if you look closely at the 27 second mark, you’ll see that he wasn’t even turning off the TV at all but accidentally tuning into a blank channel. Cablevision sent a letter to the FCC denying that the video actually showed their on-screen guide platform. Looks like ARS was tricked.
@24– Nice try Ross-Sorkin you pansy.
Let’s be real here: with ARS’ size and features, he would be more fit to be the middle spoon of an Anderson Cooper and Dylan Ratigan romp than a worthy adversary to Chazza … there’s no way he could handle the fury that the combination of those 22inch pythons would unleash… he’d get dropped like a sack of capicola before you could say shirt sleeves.

@25 pls try and keep up with the joke of a fight 24 was referencing (blarney v. taibbi)
@26: would be funny if ARS pulled AC and DR into the mix. It’d be like this time I saw a trio of women retaliating against attempted purse snatcher. However, it’d probably just turn into something really gay about 30 seconds in…
I hear that both of these douche-bags have zippers on the BACK of their pants. If ya know what I mean.
@29. why zippers? you don’t need those if you’re always open for business… if ya know what I mean.
Saw CG yesterday at the Rock Center NYSC. Curling 115 lbs., not racking weights, leather fanny pack with bberry (even though there is no signal down there), and HBS T-Shirt. Didn’t he go to grad school in MO or something?
Bwahahaha, Gasbag’s book is currently ranked #1327 at Amazon!
