USA TODAY SPIKES ANN COULTER COLUMN AT CONVENTION
Drudge Report ^ | 7/26/04

Posted on 07/26/2004 8:55:16 AM PDT by kattracks

USA Today editors have spiked a convention column they commissioned from conservative controversialist Ann Coulter, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

Coulter filed her first report from Boston Sunday night, only to be told hours later that editors found it "unusable" and "not funny."

"They should have read my work before they hired me!" Coulter, who has sold nearly a million copies of her various works and his written a syndicated column for five years, said from Boston.

MOORE ON THE FLOOR, BUT ANN IN THE CAN

Meanwhile Leftwing controversialist and Bush hater Michael Moore has free reign on the floor of the convention hall in Boston -- and has been hired to write for USA TODAY at the Republican convention in New York City!

And the mainstream media reigns again. The leftist media is enemy #2, right behind the jihadists.

This thread is good for 300 replies, easy. At least half will include the words "Ann", "spike" and "column".

How is it Michael Moore is going to actually get down on the floor and cover real news without getting the S**T beat out of him every single time.

Now, regarding his ideological masters at Gannett, there were two TWIN TOWERS of some note in the country. One set was the World Trade Center in New York. The other set was in Rosslyn, and was built originally for the Gannett Corporation and their USA Today rag.

My understanding is Osama didn't particularly care "which Twin Towers" got smacked, so the issue is just exactly how much did Gannett pay AlQaida to hit the other set?

Drudge is looking out for his ex, I see.

Meh...this is to be expected. Ann is too clever and vitriolic for most mainstream press. If they wanted a lapdog conservative, maybe George Will would do. He seems to be pretty apathetic these days. Ann, on the other hand, is all fire and brimstone when it comes to Dems - and USSRToday should have known that when they asked her for a column.

I thought MM was banned from the Demonrat confab. Is he getting in on press credentials only?

Anti-American Liberal media bias is never moore evident than in protecting the Leftist liar Moore while spiking truth-telling Ann Coulter's column.

While their circulation numbers flounder, had it ever occured to them to correlate that with the 50+% of Americans who will re-elect President Bush?

Only Liberals can operate private businesses in the same manner they would run a country - self-loathing and suicidal.

Playing for the French market is a curiousity for a publication called USA TODAY.

Non?
