(CelebNMusic247-News) Dan Nainan Punches Daily Beast’s Writier Over Tweet Heckling

Stand-up comedian Dan Nainan was arrested after punching Daily Beast writer Josh Rogin for Twitter heckling!

Yes we said  twitter heckling!

While performing at a Dupont Circle comedy club in Washington DC, Dan Nainan apparently showed his thin skin, because between sets he was going back stage to see what was being said about him on twitter. Basically its the first sign of an insecure comedian and that is NOT a good look. Insecurity and comedy is like oil and vinegar because putting your insecurities aside and being confided is what makes a successful comedian. Look and Will Farrell, Rebel Wislon, Melissa McCarthy, Bill Crystal, Eddie Murphy and more.

Anyways, Nainan went off and punched a Washington journalist in the face late Wednesday over some wisecracks he made over Twitter…

Here’s the drop:

A Washington journalist was punched in the face late Wednesday, apparently over some wisecracks he made over Twitter — which doesn’t happen nearly as often as you might think in this town.

The incident — which culminated in the arrest of stand-up comedian Dan Nainan — occurred at the Improv, a Dupont Circle comedy club where Nainan was performing and writer Josh Rogin was in the audience.

Rogin, a foreign-policy scribe for the Daily Beast, tweeted some mildly tart criticism of Nainan’s routine:

 

 

Minutes later, Nainan approached the writer at his table in the back, Rogin said. “He said, ‘Are you Josh Rogin?’ I said yes, and he punched me in the jaw.”

Nainan also pushed him, Rogin said, then briefly walked away – only to return to take two more swings. (One connected, Rogin said.) Other witnesses, National Journal reporter Elahe Izadi, who had been sitting near Nainan, confirmed the encounter. A U.S. News reporter also published her first-hand observations of the incident.

Josh Writes on his tweeter a blow by blow description about the attack:

 

 

 

.Bouncers removed Nainan from the room, and police arrived to interview both men separately. According to the arrest report, police charged Nainan, 52, with simple assault.

The incident became an immediate social-media sensation: The room was filled with Twitter-happy Beltway types who had gathered for the semi-annual “Funniest Celebrity in Washington” contest, which — despite a questionable record of charity fundraising — has remained a favorite with media and policy types. Tax advocate Grover Norquist, CNN anchor Candy Crowley and columnist Clarence Page were among the “celebrities” doing stand-up shtick – with Nainan, a veteran comic popular on the corporate circuit, brought in to rev the crowd up with a professional routine.

In an e-mail Thursday morning, Nainan denied the accounts of other witnesses and the police report and said he was only standing up for other comedians on stage that night.

Bottom line, Dan Nainan show quit comedy because he has too thin of skin. Grow some damn balls Dan and stop using racist jokes because they SUCK!  We got one word for you, HACK!
