CNN Anchor Lectured by Amanpour for Joking About the "Objectivity" of Helen Thomas - Video 8/4/09

Here is video this afternoon of liberal CNN reporter Christiane Amanpour lecturing CNN anchor Kyra Phillips after Phillips poked fun at long-time White House Correspondent Helen Thomas, who was serenaded and kissed by President Obama today for her birthday. Phillips simply joked she wondered how Thomas would maintain her "objectivity" after that.

Amanpour, who had been interrupted by the events at the White House became very defensive of Thomas and told Phillips:

"I'm going to refer you all the way back to the Nixon administration when he came out in the press room and congratulated her on being named the first female dean of the White House Press Corps. And she had no problem continuing to be highly objective."

Of course, the truth is that Helen Thomas has been rabidly against every Republican President. She has not been objective for at least the last 30 years, and probably long before that. . . . . . (Watch Video)

Did Micheal Douglas dump Amanpour? If not, then you are making up rules.

I suggest that Bill Clinton should be honored and rewarded for his freeing those two ‘journalists’ from North Korea by sending Bubba to Niagara Falls with Christiane Amanforsure AND Helen Thomas, and let them all go over the falls in a great big barrel.

GRAND fun for all ages, especially the spectators!

Is Amanpour that mustachioed woman who never met a terrorist she didn’t excuse because of something the Israelis must have done done to make poor little Akbar go bad?
