This is over reaching. She asked where they come up with the name Track. It is not an unordinary question.
When they are guilty of bias and unethical journalism, slam them. This is not one of those cases. Counter productive to claim it is.
[She asked where they come up with the name Track]
Actually, she says, “Where the hell do they get these names from...”
I disagree this over reaching. What I found typical and ‘biased” is her arrogant , patronizing and disgusted attitude to anyone outside of Washington, NYC or San Francisco or outside of any elite liberals.
Her attitude to the public in general shows clearly, her mocking Palin’s lifestyle ( and the crew you hear in the background) —hunting, mooseburgers..and making fun of the town’s name. Sure, it is not unusual to joke around or to ask about the name...it is Couric’s attide and that of her crew..that is hardly objective or even being inquisiitve.
It IS NOT over-reaching. Did you watch the video? She is clearly mocking Sarah. When she reads the part about Sarah’s hunting, she says, “You can’t make this up.”
Yeah agreed. I know the knee-jerk reaction with a lot of people here is to defend Palin at all costs but IMO Sarah is a bit of a...well she brings mockery upon herself sometimes.
Some examples:
Children’s names, seriously Trig, Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper...that’s a pretty goofy set.
Defending Rush using the term “retard” about 600 times in one show as “satire” but criticizing Rahm for using the same word once as offensive.
Twittering words that don’t exist and then comparing herself to Shakespeare when called on it. Good lord...even as a joke that was bound to backfire.
I mean she doesn’t exactly avoid ridicule with these sorts of decisions. Is it deserved? No. Surprising? Not at all.
I am going to run now...
But she made some other comments that they lowered the volume. I have a feeling she did cross a line.
Yeah. . .it's pretty lame. . .plus this was very early in the process and the real Hate Palin bandwagon hadn't really cranked up yet.
no ... she said:
“Where the hell did they get these names?????
THAT’S what she said. Go back and listen to it.
