from CNN: Dixie Chicks on Larry King tomorrow night....don't forget

[Gabi Hayes]

''The defiant and outspoken Dixie Chicks in their first live prime-time interview since they set fans off by taking on the president.''

wont' be as good as the Stern interview last week, but it'll be interesting to see if he treats her more as Stern did, or that garbage pit Steve Croft

Stern interview:

''The girls said that things got really bad when the Red Cross refused to take a million dollars from them. They couldn't believe that they had so much negative feedback after expressing their opinions on what they thought about the war in Iraq. Howard said that Iraq is a mess right now and it will be a mess for a long time. It may never be right. The Chicks lost a lot of fans because of their comments but they said that they just move on from there and put that behind them.''

''After their scandalous turning down of The View recently, The Dixie Chicks took us by surprise with an appearance on Howard Stern this morning. And it was kick-ass! Thought provoking, titillating and incredibly entertaining. Their hour long, uninterrupted segment started with great conversation about their stance against the war, what they've been through the last 6 years, the Time article and how they are standing strong!

After a live performance of Landslide, Howard got emotional and spoke of their courage, and stated with deep feeling "I want to thank you for speaking out against the war". Even Stern show listeners called in with sincere and heart felt support for the Dixie Chicks. One caller commented about Natalie's open criticism of the war... "I'm in the Army and that's what we're fighting for." Natalie replied that "It is patriotic. I didn’t want people to die for a reason that still hasn’t been proven to us."

And it turns out Natalie is huge Stern show fan! She and Howard really clicked. She was witty, sexy and an awesome interview. They also played their new single and it's fantastic. Man these girls rule, they make us realize WHY our country is great and why we need to fight to take it back!''








I heard the entire interview last week....it was very emotional in spots, and made me admire them a LOT, as well as like them even more than I did after seeing them in their very winning 60 Minutes interview with that M$M toady, whose approach was 180 degrees different than the one Stern took. Natalie, btw, is a big Stern fan, and even knew one of the callers, who tried to sing along to one of their songs.....wish there was a way to get this interview online.

5. from "Newsbusters," a site for the mentally challenged/mentally ill

Actually it's not that complicated. Most country listeners are patriotic. The Ditzy Chicks are anti American through and through. Not too tough to see why they've lost their listeners.

We've finally given liberals a war against fundamentalism, and they don't want to fight it. They would, except it would put them on the same side as the United States.--Ann Coulter

11. Support the Dixie Chicks!

I just bought their CD--it's great! The Chicks are feisty and not standing down. Everyone should buy it. Let's get the message out that the Dixie Chicks DO have support.

They are definitely not ready to make nice--and this is a good thing.

:bounce:

15. Hear! Hear!

They are completely wonderful. I'm loving the CD and loving blasting it in the parking lots of the stores in my ultra-red neighborhood. I've gotten plenty of looks.

Welcome to DU!
