Stop feeding Ann Coulter

[texastoast]

You know she just eats up all the attention this board is giving her now. Maybe if we just STFU about her, she will finish starving.:evilgrin:

[pingzing58]

1. It amazes me that the media gives her a platform to promote herself and her ideas.

[City Lights]

4. Me too.

If she bashed cons instead of liberals, she'd get no air time whatsoever. It's really maddening. Durn that lib'rul media.

[Ganja Ninja]

2. We aren't feeding her.

MSNBC, ABC & FOX are feeding her. We shouldn't be focused on her. We should focus on her enablers and keep asking the question why she of all people is allowed to air her "views" repeatedly when all that comes out of her mouth is childish distasteful remarks and personal attacks.

As I sit here now Ed Schultz is fielding a caller who is asking the same question. Ed says it's "because she's a live wire." What the hell is that suppose to mean? Do we put anybody and everybody that has something hateful and despicable to say on national TV? There are millions of "live wires" out there. Why do the networks keep going back to the same old stale tired skank over and over again?

5. No, anything we say to them is BUZZ.

BUZZ means they'll hire her again.

[Ganja Ninja]

14. Once again I say we need to focus on the networks ...

and force them to explain what is so special about Ann that she deserves to be invited back time and again. This isn't about her vocalizations. It's about the people that put a microphone in front of her as if something of notable significance will emanate from her pie hole.

3. She's just Paris Hilton with less class.

:evilgrin:

[triguy46]

6. But what am I to do with the shit sandwich I just made her?

[texastoast]

20. LOL!

Split it between Sean and Rush. :puke:

[guitar man]

7. she doesn't look

...like anyone has been feeding her at all :shrug:

8. Contact...

them. Let them know it's not okay. My letter:

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
When I saw the promo that Ann Coulter was to be on Hardball...which I often watch...I was disgusted. I did not watch it live. When I heard about Elizabeth Edwards calling in, and the controversy, I did watch the interview online.

This morning, that interview has been 'the topic' on most MSNBC shows. In a kindergarten-like discussion, your people are pointing the finger and saying "She did it , first"..."No, she started it" to decide whether the blame for what happened on the show is Coulter or Edwards' fault. PATHETIC!


You are all missing the point. Ann Coulter has ONE motive: Get attention by stirring up controversy through the use of hateful speech so that she can sell books and make MONEY. She has used many people, including the Edwards and the 9/11 widows as her victims if it suits her purpose. MSNBC just demonstrated to me that you are willing to sink to her level for ratings...and to also make money.

I'm proud of ANYONE who stands up against this kind of hateful, childish dialogue in our society. ..and I thank Elizabeth Edwards for doing so. That is what a strong First Lady should do for our country...point out the need for discussion on the issues when we are electing a President. Our country DESPERATELY needs to focus on issues at this critical time. What Ann Coulter does is distract from that, for her own selfish purposes. The media is responsible as well for giving her the stage.

If you all haven't read Al Gore's book, "Assault on Reason", I suggest you do. Many of us citizens are reading it and agree with the former Vice President about the role of television on democracy. I am seriously considering disconnecting my cable TV service...due to this kind of programming. The only thing that is keeping me as a customer is C-Span , PBS and Countdown, with Keith Olbermann on your network. If I see Ann Coulter on one of those shows, I'll be done.

9. Thanks for that

[hiphopnation]

10. it's a fucking outrage that the woman gets the forum she does in the MSM

liberal media bias, what? who? whaaa?

[bdamomma]

11. it must be a slow reporting day if they have nothing else to

report on than this stupid and ignorant woman. I guess the number of americans and civilians being killed in iraq has no priority to this stupid media.

[bdamomma]

12. oops double post.

[radfringe]

13. don't feed coulter - feed those she bashes

after her most recent stupid comment - I've pretty much decided that I will send a few bucks to the campaign of whoever she bashes... If a "comment" area is available on their website, I'll add that I am donating because of coulter


when the repubs need to raise money - they send out letters yelling that they need money to stop Hillary Clinton, and the money rolls in

we can turn her into the Dem equivilent with a slight twist - "if ann hates _____, then ______ must be good"

[iamahaingttta]

15. Stop feeding who?

Huh? What are you talking about?
Did you start ANOTHER thread about... what again?

[Fading Captain]

16. BINGO!

The media gives her attention because, well, look at the storm she created on DU ...

[texastoast]

19. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[Fading Captain]

21. thanks

Welcome to you too

[Bjorn Against]

17. I don't think we should ignore her, we should make her the face of the GOP

She is so incredibly revolting, if the Republicans want to promote her then we should make sure the voters know the kind of people the GOP wants speaking for their party.

And honestly, if you don't feel the same way then why are you starting a new thread about Ann Coulter?

[hfojvt]

18. here they do not seem to mind

The local Republican women's group donated a copy of "Treason" to the library and were pictured on the front page of the paper doing so. Visiting the Republican headquarters before the last election and the woman sitting there is holding "How to talk to a Liberal", and they won every election locally, except Governor and AG, and only because the latter was a former Republican and the Governor does not run, nor govern as a liberal.

[Mz Pip]

22. Of course we should feed her

She, herself admits she helps our fundraising efforts. THe Law of Unintended Counsequences is at work with the venomous Ms Coulter.

23. Here we go.

She's starting to feed again. Quick! Pull the tube!
