It’s hilarious that a guy who gossips, harasses people & invades privacy for a living thinks he has the moral authority to shame anyone.

Harvey’s offended by Michael and Tucker on behalf of Pete & the gays. I’m offended by Harvey and the channel he works for on behalf of Britney Spears, Amanda Bynes, Lindsay Lohan, and every other celebrity who had their privacy violated and were bullied to the point of severe mental breakdowns and rehab by scumbags on TMZ

I think Harvey likes having Michael on, and the triggered reaction is just an act. Otherwise, he wouldn't keep having him on.

Michael ALWAYS wins these debates because he never gets angry, he always stays calm and smiles and talks logically. Meanwhile, guys like this TMZ dude get super angry and look foolish.
