remove lines matching more than one pattern using sed

I'm trying to remove a few lines matching some regex.

curl <url> | sed '/\(foo\|bar\|baz\)/d'

i don't want any of those lines to show that match foo, bar or baz

it stops on foo

if this is easier with awk, i'm ok with that.

This might work for you (GNU sed):

sed '/foo/{/bar/{/baz/d}}' file

or:

sed '/foo/!b;/bar/!b;/baz/d' file

Or with egrep:

curl <url> | egrep -v "foo|bar|baz"

Using awk

curl <url> | awk '!/foo|bar|baz/'
