Paula Baroff (@paulabaroff) January 08, 2013Liberal Fox News commentator Bob Beckel has a nasty habit of spewing verbal garbage at women. And this evening on “The Five,” he demonstrated once again why he’s “not cut out” for TV:
Bob Beckel telling Andrea Tantaros that she looks like she "could handle a hairy carrot" on Fox News live. #TFM @totalfratmove—

*covers ears* yes, bob did say that Andrea can handle a hairy carrot on the five—

Nice, huh? A handful of viewers thought it was just hilarious:
@RobertGBeckel Awesome dig on @AndreaTantaros You said what many of is were thinking. #dirtyoldmen—

That was so wrong @RobertGBeckel what you said to @AndreaTantaros …..but it was funny.—

@RobertGBeckel hope you didn't get chewed out over the carrot. I laughed till I cried. You keep it real—

@RobertGBeckel You are in rare form today. Great bit with the carrot. Andrea may never speak to you again.—

And we wouldn’t blame her. Many people failed to see the humor and were thoroughly disgusted:
@michellemalkin did you see how Beckel treated Andrea Tantaros on The Five tonight? Disgusting.—

@FNthe5 Bob Beckel is so gross in the gutter. He and Christie running tight race on gluttony. And, Beckel, we see you have the shakes!—

WOW! Unbelievable what Bob Beckel gets away with on FOX news! He should be fired for sex harrassment towards Andrea Tarantino.—

@RobertGBeckel what u said to @AndreaTantaros was rude and horrible. @ericbolling @greggutfeld @danaperino. A sad day today on #The5—

Umm really Bob Beckel? Wow, @AndreaTantaros should have punched you. @FNTheFive—

If that comment doesn't get @bobbeckel kicked off of Fox, nothing will…. Disgraceful #TheFive—

Imagine if Beckel were an "R" and he made that crude carrot/phallic reference to a woman? #TheFive—

Ah, but Bob wears a (D), which confers instant immunity.
NOT breaking news: Bob Beckel said something sexually degrading and misogynist. And will get away with it. Again.—
Michelle Malkin (@michellemalkin) January 08, 2013
Just pathetic.
@AndreaTantaros I think @RobertGBeckel needs to tweet his apology to you so it on the record.—
Kent Summers (@azroofer1) January 08, 2013
Bob has a lousy record when it comes to saying he’s sorry, but we certainly hope he’ll give Tantaros the apology she deserves.

Update:
We don’t know if there’s been apology, but there might have been a beating.
Don't worry. I can handle carrots, in fact so well that I hit Bob with them off screen. He's applying for a job at ESPN as we speak.—
