1. one of the most bizarre interviews in Today Show history
beyond even Cruise. Lauer didn't even end the interview with a "thank you."

3. Why would anyone even consider talking to Malkin or for that matter even saying hello?
Matt Lauer is an idiot.

5. Lauer was clearly disgusted...

I can't defend giving her that much air time to spout off the rancid tripe that was pouring out of her head, but in defense of Matt Lauer (somewhat) if you look at the end of the interview he clearly looks like he would like to smack Malkin across her smug face.

The real issue is that this is ALL the circus sideshow...race baiting questions and hyper-sensitivity from "repressed whites", Malkin, Limbaugh, Coulter, Beck et al., birthers, Michael Jackson....ALL of it is nothing but distraction while the country is continuing to be sucked dry by corporate thieves and their "hedge fund" taskmasters. The health care reform movement has already been watered down to the point of uselessness, the bail-out money from TARP has already been evaporated and taken into the profit column of Goldman Sachs, the recovery act money is being held-up to prevent any meaningful reform in energy production, usage and conservation. The BIG issues are laid low by morons and overt racists.

We, the people, are being screwed daily. If the people feel apathetic because they do not believe they can make a difference, then there is still hope that this nation need not perish under the tyranny of disinformation, deception and out-and-out fraud - they can be reached to mobilize and to believe again, although the Obama promise for change is really making that a tougher sell the next time....but if people have become so apathetic to the reality of our situation that they believe those with money and power really ARE more deserving or more capable (as if stealing money in a rigged game really requires that much effort or brains), then I fear all is lost.

We need to collectively attack these snake-oil salesmen and sleazy media whores like Malkin and expose them and their paymasters for what they really are - Prada '09.

9. agree
"We need to collectively attack these snake-oil salesmen and sleazy media whores like Malkin and expose them and their paymasters for what they really are/"

That's the problem.....Except for Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann and lately Chris Matthews...the MSM doesn't call them out.

It's just like how the Elected Republicans are scared of the birthers. Just look at that video from FireDogLake and how the Republicans are afraid to say anything negative about the birther. THE MSM are afraid of the likes of Mailkin and Beck and Hannity and Limbaugh and O'Riely ....

6. Malkin is a fringe kook -- why would they have her on TV?
Why are all these wackjobs getting "mainstreamed' by the news media?

10.  Why are all these wackjobs getting "mainstreamed' by the news media?
Because the MSM are competing for an audience.

7. She's the fantasy of
those freeper goons sitting in the basement with goo stained keyboards.
A paid shill and liar for the most corrupt political party (cult) since the Byzantine Empire.

8. They shouldn't have even booked her.
She and Ann Coulter are essentially the same person.

11. I could not make it to 90 seconds
She is a hate monger and a liar. Obama is a racial opportunist? Oh please look @ the diversity of people
he has around him. Robert Gibbs is mayo on white bread ..... if you look up middle aged white guy in the
Dictionary Gibbs' picture is there.

15. Wish I was that smart...
I'm a glutton for punishment. I watched the whole thing. Granted I had to pause it every 25 seconds to avoid putting my fist through my monitor due to the rampant stupidity.

13. She reminds me of Monica Crowley
They have similar mannerisms, and methods of delivering their accusations.

14. Let me just say in simple English..."Huh?"
"A racial opportunist who shouldn't shoot his mouth off when he plainly admits he doesn't know what happened."

You're describing yourself Malkin. Especially in the "shooting the mouth off" part.

no soul, no heart and, evidently, no mind.
