LOS ANGELES—Stressing that the career move had done wonders for his other clients, agent Brendon Lourde asked struggling actor Greg Hartley Thursday if he has ever considered getting into some alt-right commentary. “To be honest with you, I’ve been getting a ton of hard passes on the booking front, but I think there’s some real demand for a middle-aged performer like you to start up a podcast where you, say, tear into political correctness while chatting with a few guests from the alt-right sphere,” said Lourde, stressing that he was just spitballing, but that addressing even one or two tweets to the men’s rights movement would drive Hartley’s following through the roof, which would pave the way for some “great synergy” with a comedy special appearing exclusively on Vimeo where he touched on realizing the greatness of Western Civilization after being red-pilled. “Sure, you might be a little squeamish about claiming shooting victims are crisis actors now. I get that. All I’m saying is that auditions dry up real fast for a guy around your age, and another client of mine made $50,000 last week just from selling shirts that said ‘No Homo’ over a shot him flipping off a gay pride march. Obviously, the choice is up to you, though.” At press time, the Hartley Files podcast had received 5 million viewers for a multi-hour episode in which its host sat down with Alex Jones.

“We already have a rogue’s gallery of failures on our side, but if we could get someone with your questionable success and ethics on board, we would be unstoppable in our march back from the future....”

My boys, we should always check the onion's website once in a while. It's a great news source and should earn more. Obviously the most reliable.

Does he have to be convincing in his alt-rightness. Cause I don't know about him I still get my rights and lefts confused and I didn't know telling directions was in such demand.

Why is the Onion so shitty these days?

michaeljknowles

Well, I will become an author and color my hear blonde.

Alt right commentator asks agent if he wants to become a failing actor

And the answer is, 'No thanks, the Left pays better. IDK where the fuck they get all that money, but a shit ton of has-beens seem to be doing fine yapping on their behalf.'

You sure this is parody? Asking for DennisDMZ , RealJamesWoods , ScottBaio , and staceydash .

facts

Hopefully he doesn't we dont need anymore hitlers or trumps

Isn’t this real news

All the Leftist spots are filled by washed up 80s actors

Stayin' Alive

This is like the fifth time this week that I've seen this tweet.

I think it's time we talk openly about racism and the dangers of identity as a group. To that end, I'd like to pose a direct question to someone who is already an alt-right troll: Why do we care about 'alt-right' after all?

SarahTaber_bww This was after the actor turned down a reverse mortgage commercial as ‘ethically runout.”

The story of Owen Benjamin

Owen Benjamin. He is borderline insane.

JeffandWill Replace failing actor with failing comedian and BOOM you've got Steven Crowder.

stollemache To be fair, this works for failing comedians as well.

KyleKulinski Why is this ? That's already exactly what this Mr Reagan figure is.

Keep it comin’. The Onion more on point than the news.

Q

It was either that or porn for Candice Owens. Porn required too much integrity.

And do you have a stream of prescription drugs?

stephendpalley Replace all politicians with actors, nobody would notice

KyleKulinski Russian agent.

firstdogonmoon

KyleKulinski Now do failing actresses and radical feminists.

Oh no lmao!

Has anyone 'ed RealDeanCain yet?

.michaeljknowles this has your name all over it

allahpundit The Onion stopped being funny when it decided it needed to be a woke voice of the resistance. TheBabylonBee stomps all over it every day.

KyleKulinski

vivekoberoi Just in case, you haven't been tagged here before.

KyleKulinski The lib owning business has been booming. Opportunities also abound in the smug left wing conservative insulter racket.

KyleKulinski When reached for comment, he was unable to comment as his brain was still in recovery mode from listening to so many high level important ideas.

KaiserPhenx probs me in 5 years

jonrog1 Watch out, when RealJamesWoods puts down his crack pipe he just might sue.

Dean Cain, nice to have you on again

No, he's going to become a journalist 😂😂😂

This is absolutely genius satire

Tom Arnold?

Fucking direct lob at Woods lol

Has the agent brought up becoming a comedian, then once failing in that, switching to music?

Does it pay well? I might consider a career change...🤔

how the left lost its way (also kill these people) [part 1 of 70] [4:32:43]

Excellent

Is this the Scott Baio Story? One night I couldn't sleep and it was on the Fox and Friends late, late, show.

Thanks, but the role's been filled.

Either that or make Netflix movies

If they money is good and i get a piece of the backend$$$.

david_j_roth It’s what was asked of Candace Owens when she was a failing liberal blogger...

The James Woods method. 😆

MalcolmNance There is no satire anymore, its become reality.

MalcolmNance So, you would sell your soul for a dime or a dollar; just because this dude entices you? Don't forget about your principles and moral character! Look at his face while projecting his devilish antics at you! Keep your self-respect! You are a handsome man!

MalcolmNance The new “learn to code.“

MalcolmNance The story of James Woods

thisistherevolt Cc AntonioSabatoJr and since Baio blocked me, he gets a GIF.

Oh shit 😂 right on the nose!

Onion please i beg you

the onion is on FIRE

ThePeden

KevINthe406 The truth hurts realjameswoods and chuckwoolery

Claps

Bill Maher had a great bit on that once. It's truly amazing how many alt-right personalities failed in Hollywood & are now seeking some sort of 'revenge'.

'Everything is so PC nowadays'

andrewdoyle_com

So its Rave Dubin? Steven ass chowder? And this guy right?

Oof

Probably happens all the time 😂😂😂

willmenaker Mmmm, fresh chowder

WhitfordBradley No, I think game show host is as low I as I can go.

All the far-left spots are taken.

cc: RealJamesWoods

It’s probably good advice. The field of failed actor Alt-Left commentators is jammed (at least the commentator-hobbyists, if not the pros).

that's not funny anymore

RealJamesWoods someone's coming after your job!

make one for failing comedian

winkbarry

Nailed it.

Alyssa Milano says hi

And if that fails, he could always go work at Vox.

or fake a hate crime

I'm sure he's up to blaming liberal Hollywood elites for everything that is wrong with the world at this point.

Peak Onion.

Art.

michaeljknowles

In my darkest hours, I’m ashamed to say, I considered it. But only for a minute!! Please forgive me!!

Isn't the Alt right very anti-semitic? James Woods doesn't seem to be that, he's just a boomer.

BobbyBigWheel He could become a Vox Media contributor and then he could just up and walk out of work!

RIP JAMES WOODS

free idea for failed journalists like jacksmithiv!

AltRight truth🤣

this is supposed to be satire.

UrbanAchievr Professionally. Not just in his underground bunker.

This shit is legit. LOL

i sure am glad i didn't have to block like a fourth of the people in this comment section! the onion hits 😔👌

james woods:

The left really thinks its winning all this eh.. 🤡

So that's what became of that creepy ugly guy, what was his name? Oh yeah, realJamesWoods.

This is not fake news.

michaeldweiss He'll need to get different glasses.

So the Onion just reports news now.

Scary, change failing actor with Alyssa Milano/Jim Carrey/Mark Hamill/Alec Baldwin and alt right with alt left and you have real life 😳

Well, there's low, and then there's LOW.

Brilliant

It's either that or straight to DVD work with Steven Seagal.

thats hot
