Talk show host Adam Carolla ripped into Occupy Wall Street protesters as whiny "monsters". The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur explains why he's wrong.

1. Adam's a little stupid
I take that back......Adam's a LOT stupid. Which goes far to explain his popularity and the caliber of his audience.

2. There's so many like him, corolla
They infect the internet with their stupidity and ignorance. We have to respond to them with the facts, just like Cenk did here.

6. Yes.
I started listening to the TYT podcast back in 2007 after my friend Hank recommended it to me and I was instantly hooked. Originally I signed up for a year of Air America so I could listen to TYT, Hartmann and some Maddow. But as you now AA went away, at which point I started paying for separate memberships for TYT and Thom Hartmann.

At any rate, eventually I interned before being officially hired in late 2009. It was the first time in my life that I really cared about and loved my job. And of course the people I work with are great. News, politics and social commentary with no corporate overlords dictating the content, and of course a non-stuffy, loose atmosphere...

I'm grateful, it's a rare opportunity to work on something you love and are passionate about. Obviously the Current news is also exciting, and there again it's incredible to not have any editorial constraints from up top. I wouldn't have it any other way, and neither would Cenk.

7. What are these outrageous expectations kids have today?
That after getting good grades, studying, taking out loans and going to college they might one day get a job?

Is that an outrageous expectation? That those trained and willing to work can find work?

Maybe we shouldn't have been so eager to outsource every job imaginable leaving only low pay no benefit service jobs?

9. I think he's had an experience with a "hater" and
wants to take it out on the OCC folk. Does he really think ALL these people from around the world want handouts? Madness.
