The stench of reeking leftist hypocrisy again covers the land.
First noticed with the almost total sellout of the mainstream media as if they were a part of the Obama campaign, NBC has made no bones abouit it: crtiticism of Obama VILL NOT BE TOLERATED!!!!
In a move more reminiscent of the days of the 3rd Reich, NBC has banned Ann Coulter, premier female conservative author, because she actually has the stones to criticize "The One."
This decision by GE is utterly and completely, sickeningly reminiscent of both Pravda and
While there are a few NBC shows I watch ("Life" immediately comes to mind) I will never watch that network again, for anything... or until they formally apologige to Ms. Coulter and lift this bizarre and inexcuseable ban.
NBC BANS COULTER FOR LIFE; CUT FROM 'TODAY' SHOW OVER BOOK'S CLAIMS, NO MORE CABLEMon Jan 05 2009 17:50:57 ET
The nation's top selling conservative author has been banned from appearing on NBC, insiders tell the DRUDGE REPORT.
Banned for life!
"We are just not going to have her on any more, it's over," a top network source explains.
NBC's TODAY show abruptly cut Ann Coulter from its planned Tuesday broadcast, claiming the schedule was overbooked.
Coulter was set to unveil her new book, GUILTY.
But one network insider claims it was the book's theme -- a brutal examination of liberal bias in the new era -- that got executives to dis-invite the controversialist.
"We are just not interested in anyone so highly critical of President-elect Obama, right now," a TODAY insider reveals. "It's such a downer. It's just not the time, and it's not what our audience wants, either."
For the book, Coulter reportedly received the most-lucrative advance ever paid to a conservative author.
The TODAY show eagerly invited the author months ago, for her first network interview on GUILTY.
The exclusive was to air during the show's 7 AM hour. The cut came Monday afternoon.
Executives at NBC TODAY replaced Coulter with showbiz reporter Perez Hilton, who recently offered $1,000 to anyone who would throw a pie at Ann Coulter. Hilton is also launching a new book this week, RED CARPET SUICIDE.

sounds like more leftist censorship.
ReplyDeleteGood heavens. This makes me wish I weren't already boycotting all MSM outlets, including television so that I could boycott them all over again.
ReplyDeleteI read instead and will be buying Ms. Coulter's book in the near future.

There is more than one kind of censorship, and that imposed by the private sector appears to be far scarier than anything the government has done.
