North Carolina GOP party head cuts off her feed on MSNBC interview when the questions get too tough.

Did anybody get a clip of that? Priceless. This morning, about 9am PST or so.

GOP fuckwit asserts 'the media is responsible for making the Rev Wright controversy, it has nothing to do with NC politics'.

MSNBC anchor asks 'well, then 'why are YOU running the ad demonizing Wright? What does THAT have to do with NC politics?'

Her feed suddenly goes dead. The anchor quips 'how convenient. her feed goes dead RIGHT when I wanted an answer to that question'.

Did anybody get a clip of that????

1. Good for the anchor for pointing out the "convenience".
Hopefully it'll show up on YouTube. The Reps won't care, though - just those of us who will become more enraged. :grr:

2. Yeah, I saw it...

The woman was in front of the camera the whole time. Unless her brother was the one manning the camera -- presumably, it would actually be an MSNBC affiliate -- there's no blaming the signal loss on her.

I was surprised at the "how convenient" comment, since it's the station's responsibility to maintain the feed, not the person being interviewed.

That said, it was funny to watch and perfectly timed. It couldn't have happened to a meaner old biddy.

3. I heard some GOP woman
from NC being interviewed on NPR yesterday. It was amazing, incredible and an absolute embarrassment to the NC GOP.

5. "The Democrat party"
When I heard that rube utter that nonsense, I turned it off.
