George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[Marc.Knight]

Make it so!  I want to read this, I really do.

George???

[Tinfoil Hat]

I love how towards the end of a guest segment, Snoory answers them with "You got it!" regardless what the guest's last statement was. It's like he's not even paying the slightest bit of attention.

[General Johnson Jameson]

lol!

It'll be interesting to see how he sounds on the show tonight or if he mentions those nasty haters of his. 

I still could not listen. No way. No how. Never. Not gonna. Nope. Nein.
Heh, but...if you just on the off-chance hear him, please do tell 

[Foodlion]

Sorry for jumping in late, but is it possible George is doing this because he feels it as a threat to his career survival? If so, I would consider it a victory if George was to attempt anything.

Actualy, let me correct myself. I feel it would be a victory for everyone but George at this point, and likely the final nail in the coffin if he were to attempt anything. This is why I think it won't happen. I'm sure media outlits would cover the story and the coverage would be largly in discredit to Noory's part. In fact, the forum in my opinion would grow massivly in support and membership.

The best thing for George is to hope that no more attention is given to this, and his producers brush it off and forget it any action.

[Falkie2013]

Let him hire the attorneys. They'll charge him a small fortune and perhaps when they're done, Snoory will have to sell his house to pay the bill and declare bankruptcy and wind up REALLY living somewhere deep below the earth. - Years ago, a former instructor of my business law class at SF State ( us oldster types will never call it CSUSF ) did me a favor and wrote me a letter for a legal matter I had to deal with. He charged me $ 75 just for one letter. It quashed any proceedings against me but if that's any indication, it will drive Snoory nuts to find out he can't sue anyone for making fun of his abject incompetence and in all probability to have to pay for it out of his own pocket.


Is it too late to start a boycott George Noory site and also public picketing whenever he appears at a public venue ?


I'd love to see that. People showing up with signs and chanting " Noory sucks. Bring back Art Bell. ". It would be on every news station, Fox, CNN, etc.


Snoory has appeared at UFO conferences in the Bay Area and around the country. It wouldn't be too hard to come up with several dozen protesters to show up wherever he appears, would it ? The voice of the people and all of that. And the news stories would tell of how his listeners have finally taken to the streets to voice how they are so pissed off. Occupy Coast ?  Or better still, perhaps. Once it gets warmer, picket the offices of Premiere radio itself.

it sounds like Noory falls asleep often during the live interview and his staff just uses a pre-recorded version of all his frequent phrases to insert between the guest's comments until Noory wakes up again...

[highdesert]

I woke up last night at around 3am, and Snoory had the NDE's on and good lord. I haven't listened to him in awhile and I was blown away by how bad he is.

Just his voice alone... He sounds like 90% fat cheeks with an insanely annoying accent and no idea how to enunciate properly, like the absolute worst infomercial host.

Goddamnit, YOU SUCK NOORY!

[CrabbyOld Bat]

All emails can't be about the lawsuit or Snorge will get bored when Tommie reads them to him. So I thought maybe each day I'd send something like the following. Too mean-spirited or cruel? Your feedback would be appreciated.


"Dear Mr. Noreey,

May I ask who did your plastic surgery and hair transplants? They did such a wonderful job we were thinking about surprising great-great grandad with a makeover.

We were especially impressed because your eyes hardly droop at all now except for the stubborn right one, just a little. And your hair and mustache are so shiny they look like highly buffed tar-colored shoe polish. Very distinguished looking and almost believable, I swear!

Thanks for your help and keep up the wood gork. 

Sincerely,

A. Haitour"

It's funny you say that.  I think it was brought up a while back here, or maybe another thread, BUT....I am convinced Noory Plays pre-recorded clips to fill time.  This has bothered me for a while.  For instance, there was a particular caller......{and pardon me for the loose description of the call  }..... who described a 'shadow like' figure who had glowing eyes.  This figure approached him and asked if he had a cigarette.  When he spoke to this figure he noticed his eyes glowed red like a demon.  The caller said he was never so scared...blah blah blah.  The caller had a particular accent.  I just remember hearing that call again about two years after I initially heard it!  It perked me up while I was driving.  Kinda like deja vu.  I've noticed a couple instances like this and I am quite certain that I am not confused or mistaken. 

[Morgus]

I think Noory's staff years ago created a "Noory soundboard" for easy access to playing his common phrases like "I love it" and "thats true too"

[ziznak]

heheh... we have a soundboard up we put together not too long ago... really wish somebody would use it for a little mock interview

I wouldnt be surprised if Snore-boy is really only "live" for the news segments and the rest is some really bad AI Snoore1000 model.  It's the cheapest in horrible on air personality androids.

Hi Shay - There's actually been a lot of discussion about how Noory often checks out early on Friday night. He ends the interview with the guest, and then the last hour is a replay of a "classic" show. So you are correct that they play pre-recorded stuff.

I haven't listened in so long that I don't know for sure, but I believe they don't announce when they switch to the replays. They just cut over to it and hope nobody notices.

And ole' George's phrase "I don't believe in coincidences" :

You are correct.  They do not announce. That's a dick move on their part. LOL!
I shouldn't doubt myself regarding Noory.  I'm guessing if they tell you it's going to be a 're-run' then people will turn off.

[John Smith]

Wadda Dick!!  Snoorj has a Jekyll & Hyde personality whenever his guest continues to talk to a caller who has already been cut-off. I swear you could hear Snoory's voice tighten and tense when responding to Rev Price who was trying to ask a caller a question, and didn't get the hint that the caller had been cut-off. Jerk!!!

[Sardondi]

...It's been said here before, but I'm sure GN's daily, private life is one of epic sadness.  I'm guessing that the level of pathos, regret, and boorishness is so great, that you couldn't even script it.  If you were to make some kind of screenplay out of it, and DIDN'T make it a comedy, but rather a stark and honest look at a lonely, dim-witted man who benefits from "occupational welfare" lotto ticket of a lifetime... we'd probably be winning academy awards for it.  I'm thinking John C. Riley's cop character from "Magnnolia", but even more sad and boorish.  And not funny, nor loveable.  Damn, I think I've got enough for a script here.

I think movies about George's life have already been made: Limelight, The Entertainer, and The King of Comedy. I would have suggested Falling Down, but we're not quite there yet.

Falling Down is a great movie.  I don't think Jorch will ever reach that point.  He doesn't have it in him.  He would get someone else to do the dirty work for him.

George and Art could do "Grumpy Old Men 3"

"Dear Mr. Noory:

         I understand you've instructed your attorneys to explore legal action against websites which provide a sounding board for those individuals who have expressed their vociferous disapproval of your competence and effectiveness as host of Coasttocoastam.

I can hardly imagine this is true. First because any person who has been what the law calls a "public figure" for as long as you have would almost certainly know the futility of such lawsuits. It's almost impossible for a public figure to meet the "actual malice" standard which the law requires. And here's a hint: "actual malice" is a specific term of law, and does not mean what you think it means.

And secondly I can hardly believe a public figure such as yourself has such terrible management as to allow you to embarrass yourself into looking like a thin-skinned, whining child by trying to sue regular citizens who are simply expressing their opinions that you are a dolt. But then your lawyers may be interested in sucking you dry in useless legal fees as they "research" a suit against your internet detractors. I suppose they could be quite happy to be paid $500 an hour to read dusty legal cases which decided this issue against you many, many decades ago. But maybe, "Give the client what he wants" is their motto.

Finally, while I'm sure you've been reminded, it cannot be said too often,  "truth is an absolute defense" in defamation cases. If, for example, you were to sue someone for saying "there has never been a major radio host as incompetent and stupid as George Noory", it would mater not what else you proved if a jury were to find that you were, indeed, the most incompetent and stupid major radio host in the history of the genre.

Are you really willing to have a jury answer that question, Mr. Noory? And remember, your mother will not be on the jury.

Hoping you are well, I remain sincerely yours,

(signature)"

Well done!

[somatichypermutation]

I see the Premiere office of some version of the saddest movie about business ever made, Glengarry Glenross.  Amazingly good film.

[Usagi]

It occurred to me that Jackie Chiles is probably a very busy man.  We might want to seek legal representation somewhere else.

[b_dubb]

does anyone think Noory might actually try to get a lawyer to shutdown coastgab.com? a lot of people are sending critical emails and mentioning this site in the emails?  it might make for some great comedy

[Treading Water]

OMG!  I had to stop reading and walk away. 
My sides hurt soooo bad from laughing. 
Excuse me, I have to go back and reread everything in case I missed something.   

[lonevoice]

OMG!  I had to stop reading and walk away. 
My sides hurt soooo bad from laughing. 

Me too!  It's been one of the funniest catch-up days I've had on coastgab yet.

I ask you, is this a yearbook picture of Jorch's hirsute sister?  Or...is it possible Jorch is transgender? 



Oooo, scary tough guy Jorch might see this and do his internet bully routine



Oh, Jorch.  Y so stupid?

[PB the Deplorable]

George thought all he had to do was get the job, sit there and have guests on to carry the show, and a built in audience would think he's just wonderful - maybe a few that really preferred Art Bell would drop off and go away leaving only people that would buy his t-shirts, posters, and coffee mugs.

At some level he knows he doesn't put effort into the show and that he wouldn't be very good even if he did, but he has excuses for each bit of his suckage ('I can't read 5 books a week so I won't read any', 'it's for the new listeners', 'the show isn't about yelling and screaming', 'it's the guests job to get their information out', 'he must have hung up', 'I was born with a speech defect', etc, etc, etc). 

He thought he could get away with being unprepared and all the rest because he doesn't realize everyone else actually listens when people talk and is interested in the world around them.  He thought Art and the listeners were a bunch of kooks, and that the kooks wouldn't be all that discerning when it came to his show.

He probably thought all that right up to last month, and that except for the 5 of us 'haters' causing trouble, no one would even realize how bad he is at hosting an interview show.  When Art chipped in with a few comments, it may have really shocked George.

[jinwicked]

If you cannot successfully skim a book and feign interest in what your guest has to say, perhaps "talk show host" is not the job for you.

[Sardondi]

Wow! George's threat to sue, whether made with his knowledge or not, has inspired some excellent fun....and good feelings. This is when I like CoastGab the mostest.

I see the Premiere office of some version of the saddest movie about business ever made, Glengarry Glenross.  Amazingly good film.

Great film, fantastic script and powerful performances That is one of the most painful movies I know of. Wait - beofre I go off on a tangent again, I think I'll look for a better thread. Later.

[somatichypermutation]

Can you imagine Rush or Hannity coming after "haters" who have never made threats to their person?  I can't, it makes them look unprofessional and raises the hater to their level.

[ponyboysunset]

Omg!!! Love it!  Or Barry Zuckerkorn:-)

[Eddie Coyle]

Operative word, "unprofessional". Rush,Hannity, hell most anybody, would handle this better. They know it's part of the territory, apparently the Motor City Moron doesn't get that. The Dearborn Dolt is really doing the heavy loifting for us, proving what a foolish goof he is.
