 Carlos Mencia Steals More Bits, Gets Caught On Air
Carlos Mencia Steals More Bits, Gets Caught On Air [video]
I'm posting this in light of the recent Carlos Mencia post. In this one he is invited to a radio talk show and gets busted. You'd think after all of this controversy he would just stop stealing material. picked by Mershaullk 3 years ago

As much as I love the funny, you would think I care. I don't. I never liked Carlos in the first place. I've met some "Real" comedians, he couldn't carry their jock.

Edit Alert: I think Joe Rogan is a great guy.

What a dumb DJ... Didn't call him out because he didn't want to feel bad for the rest of the day? Aww poor baby. He had a prime opportunity to bust him on the air and passed it up because of the minor inconvenience of feeling bad. What a loser.

I really hate Mencia. This guy keeps calling him a nice guy, but what kind of nice guy steals jokes from other people for profit? He lacks creativity. Dane Cook has the same problem.

But once again....are we saying it's not possible for more than one person to have the same thought about having a stereotype olympics?

And in this case...he WAS given the bit by somebody else..WITH PERMISSION TO USE IT.

I like that second link up there..the DJ said that Mencia said it was his idea...no he didn't..he just said he did it...he didn't say whose idea it was!!! ..but Rogan planted that seed in their head and they heard what they wanted to hear!

To me Joe Rogan went from being "that fear factor guy" straight to "loser with nothing better to than cause problems for people with better careers." And it's a shame too because I saw part of one of his shows and thought he was funny..but I'll never pay to see him now.

The sad part about your stance here is that Joe Rogan is defending the creative and funny people who made the jokes but are being robbed by the man (and was actually a great stand-up comedian who never shouild have went to Fear Factor since now every one thinks he's just the "Fear Factor guy". Mencia is not coming up with 'similar ideas', he is blatantly swiping jokes and changing a couple of words around to call them his own without crediting anyone. Yes, there is always the possibility that someone can come up with a joke that is almost identical to another, but if all of your jokes come up almost identical to someone else's there is a problem there. It's really a shame that there is no way of legally persuing this. Comedians aren't exactly the wealthiest people out there.

You know, Bill Hicks and his family have never supported that claim. They state that the comics had similar outlooks and that the jokes, though somewhat similar, were not close enough to be considered thievery. (Though Bill Hicks could have out-funnied Leary any day of the week)

It's not like Dane Cook or Carlos Mencia in which the jokes are identical with the exception of a few words.

I could not agree more, this was all I could think about while listening, what a terrible interview.

We're already aware Mencia's stealing material, this DJ is just trying to echo Joe Rogan's accusations to gain popularity the same way Rogan is, by being the first to bring you THIS BREAKING NEWS!

Rogan's been around for quite some time before Fear Factor. For me, Joe Rogan still works at News Radio.

I can't tell you how many times I've listend to stand up comedians and said to myself... "I've heard that before"...I think it's the nature of the business whether it's on purpose or not. There is absolutely no reason for Mencia to say where the stereo-type olympics bit came from...and I've heard PLENTY of stuff from Mencia that I have NEVER heard before and I have listened to many of the people he is supposedly stealing from.

I think it's harsh to say "all" his jokes are somebody elses..there is absolutely no proof of that and it's a rather gross generalization. Maybe some things he's heard in the past from others comes back up because he thinks it's relevant to his current bit...so what! It's not like all he does is somebody else's stuff..unless of course you count what's written for him.

We see things now because we are looking for it..rogan makes a video and now we think that's all mencia does. If all he did was blatently do other people's bits..would he be as famous as he is now? I've listened to mencia from WAY back before he was even known by most...I don't ever recall saying to myself.."I've heard that before" unless it was a previous skit of his I heard it from.

I'm sorry..but to me this whole mencia/rogan dispute has done nothing but make me lose interest in even SEEING rogan...as long as mencia makes me laugh, then so be it. Rogan needs to get off the pulpit unless he starts stealing HIS stuff. IMO rogan has way too much free time.

And who cares if mencia tells a joke with a hint of something from 20 friggin' years ago (the cosby thing)..there's a new audience to hear it and it's revamped in a more current tone...did the folks laugh? Yes.

BTW...how many radio shows out there do prank phone call skits? How many of them gave props to the originators of the skit? How many of them have added there own twist and called it their own? ..it's the nature of the business.

...ya know...as I think about this...I almost wish the DJ HAD called him out on it and asked Mencia where the olympics bit came from...then we'd see if he'd been honest about it.

Personally, I don't care if Mencia is stealing material or not. Nothing he can steal will make him a good comedian, he's not funny.

I agree that Mencia isn't funny anyway, so who cares? I'm not surprised that he's a plagarist too.
