inothernews: The Daily Show’s Samantha Bee remarking on a 9/11 Memorial edition merlot and chardonnay: “This is real.  You can drink this.  If you’re a fucking asshole.” Look, I love Ms. Bee and TDL as much as anyone but they’re getting laughs at the expense of a good company’s reputation. I’ve visited Lieb Family Cellars in Mattituck many times and I highly doubt they’re trying to profit off of people’s grief. They make wine; what’s the big deal about making wine to raise money for the museum and memorial? They did it for breast cancer and no one objected to that — though it’s claimed many more lives.   I feel bad for them — to get recognized on the national stage like this.
