Over the top! Bob Beckel challenges conservative author to a knife fight

Fox News’ liberal stalwart Bob Beckel was more colorful than usual on Wednesday’s “The Five” when the topic of conservative author Jason Mattera and his recent ambush-type videos were discussed.

Mattera recently published a book, “Crapitalism – Liberals Who Make Millions Swiping Your Tax Dollars,” and has been using interesting promotional tactics to garner attention. In one video, Mattera is assaulted by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s bodyguard and in another he is ambushing former IRS official Lois Lerner with some tough questions about her role in the conservative targeting scandal.

Beckel called out Mattera for his tactics when confronting Lerner. Over the years Beckel has been known to make his share of outrageous statements, but his challenge to Mattera pushed the envelope with its violent content. Beckel challenged Mattera to come “discuss” the matter with him so he could “kick his ***.” At the end of the segment you can hear Beckel say, “Bring a knife punk,” to the groans of his co-hosts.

Mattera took to Twitter to respond to Beckel’s challenge, tweeting this:

He followed with a response to co-host Greg Gutfeld’s assertion that Mattera was rude in his approach to Lerner, tweeting:

Mattera said in another tweet that he looked forward to a national debate on effective journalism.

No word yet from Beckel and the other hosts of “The Five” regarding Mattera’s offer.
