What The Web Has Wrought

What The Web Has Wrought

“The trolls have inherited the earth.” – Bob Lefsetz

If this is true, then Bob Lefsetz is the King of the Trolls!

After building a reputation and career as a brilliant music industry blogger with thousands of subscribers, Mr. Lefsetz now believes this qualifies him to troll the political landscape and lampoon any politician to the right of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. People who signed up to hear his perspectives on entertainment, musicians, record companies,  Ticketmaster and Taylor Swift, must now endure weekly rants and tirades against President Trump, Republicans, FOX News, and conservatives. Typical of many movie stars, recording artists, celebrities and left wing pseudo-intellectuals, Bob Lefsetz truly believes that a couple years in college, vacations on the ski slopes of Aspen, speaking engagements providing first class airfare, museum tours and deluxe hotel accomodations in exotic locales, and a home in Los Angeles, makes him morally and intellectually superior to those of us in flyover country.

“So you’ve got the aggressors, usually know-nothing individuals, and those with traction, who are gun-shy, or performing stunts for attention.”

I couldn’t have said it better myself! 

With the self-righteous enthusiasm of a true Social Justice Warrior, Lefsetz regularly imposes his left wing liberal opinions on his music blog subscribers, just daring them to challenge him!

“Hate me all you want. E-mail me I’m an idiot. That’s just the point. I can take it, I’m not gonna blink.”  

From his pulpit on the Left Coast, Bob Lefsetz is going to continue to pummel and harangue you with his extremist views and there’s nothing you can do about it – except unsubscribe. He is willing to risk his reputation and his career to preach about and proselytize for Democrats and liberal politicians.

“It isn’t going to stay this way forever. Just because you made a record that does not mean anybody’s going to listen to it.”  

And just because you write a music industry blog does not mean anybody wants to hear your left wing opinions about politics. Bob Lefsetz himself wrote:

“Being a politician is a profession. Michael Jordan proved that being the best basketball player of all time didn’t make him a world class baseball player.”

Bob Lefsetz is the best blogger around, if you’re looking for an insider’s perspective and a tell-it-like-it-is analysis of everything in the world of music and entertainment. That doesn’t make him a world class political pundit.

It makes him a political troll.
