Coulter booked for 'Today' show
Source: Politico.com

Conservative author Ann Coulter will appear on Wednesday’s “Today” show, according to an NBC spokesperson.

Coulter has been talking up being bumped by NBC for the past two days, both on other networks and the radio. A controversy erupted when Drudge splashed that she’d been “banned for life,” leading NBC to deny that she was banned, and later offering her a new segment.

On her website, Coulter writes that "Drudge gets results: Today show changes mind." She'll be appearing during both the 7 a.m. and 10 a.m. hours.

So in the end, NBC will probably get more viewers and Coulter will sell more books—or at least further convince those in her camp that the MSM isn’t on her side. Either way, it should be entertaining.

8. she preaches to her choir
I can't stand the woman but her type of rhetoric helped put the GOP where it is today, whining and declining even further into obscurity.

She makes a perfcet mouthpiece for Republicans in that she reflects their values perfectly. She's nasty, dogmatic and more and more irrelevant. The morepeople hear her divisivness the more people drift away from the conservative movement.

In the long run, I think she actually helps us.

4. Oh, it's saggy, baggy bitch time
Too bad it couldn't be something meaningful like the "pirates" who are tired of the world's nuclear waste being dumped. Now, that's a story.

7. "Either way, it should be entertaining." IOW, we should all watch this debaucle. I think NOT
For these 'big minds' at Politico, it's all about money and entertainment. Not even a nod to truth, justice, and honor.

Can anyone say Coulter has any of these qualities? Truth? Justice? Honor?

I have other things to do with my time, like rebuild my country after Ann fucked it up.

peace

9. I wonder what "vital" information she'll impart?
Matt Lauer lurves him some Little Arfin' Annie, and has said that Today will have her on when she presents vital views on the issues of the day.

10. NBC = weasels
I thought maybe they had some dignity, some ethics, some backbone.

I was wrong.

Spineless panderers in a big hurry to suck Coulter ass.

Weasels.

11. God damnit, the mainstream media infuriates me.
And Coulter pretty much admits that Drudge made this story up.

Fuck Drudge and fuck Coulter. I hope they rot in hell.

12. ROFLMAO. The Circus of Nonsesical Asshollerry that is the American M$M rolls on.
Edited on Tue Jan-06-09 04:47 PM by tom_paine
Watching CNN or any of the rest of TV Infoganda makes people stupider and weaker-minded, this I FULLY belive.

Watching that shit neutralizes critical thinking skills and sell gullibility by the mega-ton.

What little actual news that is still allowed to trickle through the cacophonous Infoganda carnival of nonsense is usually poorly reported and slanted by Bushie Editors and Corporate Toadies.

What else can one do but turn that shit off and pray that the M$M will one day get a good Bastille Day-ing from the peasantry that these TV toady-courtiers so richly deserve. (with a handful of exceptions)

17. I think having this insane nut speak for the republicans so everyone can gawk is wondeful.
I wonder what embarrassing and stupid things he/she/it will say next. Last time it stuck it's foot in it's mouth so bad and so consistently that even the rethuglicans turned against it.

19. If she's invited as a guest, they should also invite reps from the Taliban
the KKK and other hate organizations.

20. It's so "controversial" now that NBC HAS to take advantage of the hype.
They need ratings, like all the networks, and all they have to sell is bad news. Why not sell hate?

22. Okay, watched the interview...
she's a raging lunatic!! Yelling her points and backing none of it up... it's sad to know that people actually buy her book and listen to what she says.

23. Can they bring in Tweety to rough her up a little? Could be a good time all around to see her and
Tweety going after each other.
