Former news anchor takes heat for endorsing Clinton

Associated Press ^ | November 20, 2007

[Zakeet]

It is not permissible for a journalists to endorse
a candidate -- except through biased reported.

“I know I made a mistake. It was definitely the wrong venue for my first foray into free speech,” Simpson told The Boston Globe in Monday’s editions

Well, she's certainly mastered the non-apology apology.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Simpson’s endorsement came when she took her 14-student journalism class, “Road to the White House,” to the rally to show students how to cover a political event.

She certainly showed the class how Democrat journalists cover Democrat poitical events.

But there is no liberal bias in the media.

It was definitely the wrong venue for my first foray into free speech

If this stupid woman thinks this was her "first foray into free speech," she has no idea what "free speech" is. She's a moron. Oh, wait - she was a "journalist" so of course she's a moron.

Compare with the NY Anchorman who just lost his job for calling into a talk show, using a false name, and trying to damage Giuliani:

But, you know, the media is mostly neutral on politics [/gag]

The one thing on which we can all agree, it wasn’t a surprise.

“I know I made a mistake. It was definitely the wrong venue for my first foray into free speech,” Simpson told The Boston Globe in Monday’s editions. “But I’d really like to see her win.

So much for for the apology. Obviously it wasn't a mistake.

[MeanWestTexan]

She’s only sorry that her bias is now expressly knows, instead of determined by evidence.

[darkwing104]

She's the one behind the "Pony-tail" Guy at the Clinton-Bush-Perot debate of 92!...

[caisson71]

Stupid professor.

[Red Badger]

I'd vote for Looter Guy before I'd vote for Looter Girl H!...........

[LexBaird]

“But I’d really like to see her win. After being a reporter for so many years, where you wish you could do more than you can, it would be nice to make a difference.”

And don't think it didn't show for all those years, baby. Just keep lying to yourself that you were objective.

“After being a reporter for so many years, where you wish you could do more than you can, it would be nice to make a difference.”

Almost all young “journalists” get into the business to “make a difference.” The liberal professors and liberal campus newspapers recruit them, shape them and send them out like mindless robots.

It’s a rather brilliant strategy by the Left...control education, the media and local governments with people who don’t have any aspirations of individual success.

[Doctor Raoul]

Who better to teach students about Political Journalism that a political journalist?

[xtinct]

hmmm... and parents of Emmerson students are paying $40,000 a year for their kids to hear her drivel.

[Doctor Raoul]

Simpson’s endorsement came when she took her 14-student journalism class, “Road to the White House,” to the rally to show students how to cover a political event.

What a load of BS. She became the story.

[Perchant]

Didn’t this woman moderate some presidential debates in the past? How do Republicans let that happen?

[capt. norm]

She had the most irritating (fingernails on a blackboard level) voice in all of broadcasting...with the possible exception of Peewee Herman.

[geezerwheezer]

I wonder who this asinine Simpson thinks she is fooling, other than the dumba$$e$ at Emerson College where the fool works! Seems to me a lot of African-Americans named Simpson aren’t to be believed, for one reason or another! Her “first foray” into free speech only means that nobody paid her for her left-winged bull$hit like they used to when she was with ABC, so this was her freebie. What a total waste of oxygen this garbage woman seems to be. She isn’t even smart enough to tell a decent lie, like her hero Bill Clinton could.
