Kera Phillips out of line

[cyn2]

Interviewing Nancy Pelosi and argueing with her. Very bad.

[knowbody0]

1. she got slapped down !

good fight from Pelosi

[donsu]

2. Nancy told her she sounded like WH press - Kera all but jumped out

her seat

[opihimoimoi]

3. I just watch it,, didn't get her name... she sez she not on the PUB Payrol

Yeah, right....somehow she is and she don't even know it

[flpoljunkie]

7. Kyra was an "inbed" during Iraq invasion & from military family. It shows.

You can bet your sweet ass she would not have interrupted a Rethug the way she did Pelosi.

[Zenlitened]

4. Totally agree. She's ranting and raving like a lunatic... and she's...

the news anchor?

Unreal.

Pelosi's handling her like an ace, though. Stayed calm, stuck to her message, and got her point across.

:thumbsup:

12. News anchor?

Totally agree. She's ranting and raving like a lunatic... and she's..the news anchor?

I believe she's called a "News Reader"

[fooj]

5. Bullshit!

Peace.

[Drum]

6. Agreed!

Phillips wasn't even being a good interviewer, letting her guest answer, and I'm glad when Ms. Pelosi called her on it: "Kera, if you want to be an advocate for the Bush administration then you should go get on their payroll."
Pow! Game, Pelosi...Match, Pelosi!

8. Hahaha!!! CNN's comment form for her show includes a box to check...

... indicating whether your comment is positive or negative!

http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form5.html?5

I wonder... how many lines of code do you think they use to automatically delete the 'negative' comments the moment you press the submit button?

:rofl:

9. Details?

I hope crooks and liars got this.

10. Who the hell elected Kyra Phillips?

She's talking to a Congresswoman, not some blow-dried newsreader! She owes Representative Pelosi an apology!

[Wordie]

11. Yeah...Phillips showed she is a light-weight. Pelosi did GREAT! nt

14. I thought this was a great exchange, with Kyra coming around to

Nancy's point about the poverty issue - and having to defend herself and her network against charges of reading the White House talking points. She went so far as to include the point that other networks were asking tough questions of the WH.

This is such an abject fiasco that no one wants to be associated with defending it.

[Garbo 2004]

16. I think Phillips realized she was over the top...perhaps a little voice in

her ear let her know she needed to rein in. Especially after saying no one's on the WH payroll...now.

Bizarre...

15. Kyra was rude and arrogant

and we've emailed about it.
