Kevin O’Leary, a man who bluntly speaks his mind, is known for his supreme disregard for civility and his adoration for money. He was born in Mount Royal, Quebec, and started making his fortune with the start of his first software company. Currently, he is featured in shows such as Shark Tank, Dragons Den, and The Lang & O’Leary Exchange (all of which are business-oriented shows). Recently, he made another controversial remark that infuriated a lot of the viewers who were watching The Lang & O’Leary Exchange. This time, during an interview with Hedges, he called the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist “a nutbar”. Soon after, hundreds of complaint emails were received, many of them demanding an apology, and even some that suggested O’Leary to be fired. I have watched him in Dragons Den and Shark Tank for a long time and have always admired his boldness. Although the person receiving his tirade might feel devastated, he is never dishonest and says the facts straight up. It would be more pleasing if he could say the same thing in a polite manner, but sometimes, the truth and nothing but the truth has to be told in order for the message to be truly comprehended by the receiver.
