CNBC's Erin Burnett calls Bush a "monkey" - twice. Hilarity ensues
Great link.
I registered my complaint and reminded them of Howard Cosell.
She’s just another legacy brat who got into Williams College thanks to her sisters. She should not be allowed to say anything that is not on the teleprompter. Today, she started screaming that tomatoes are vegetables. Sorry Erin, they are fruit because they have edible seeds. Go back to 101 classes and give up your seat to a real reporter.
“was given this number 877-251-5685; called it and it was busy.”
It’s probably a phone in the janitor’s supply room in the basement. And they probably took it off the hook.
How is that different from anything the LSM does?
Use link GLFISNRL posted in 170 to send an e-mail complaint.
In f-ing credible.
I believe that any newscaster that calls the president of the U.S., regardless of party, a “monkey” should be removed from her job. At a minimum, all advertisers should pull ads, until this occurs. If they don’t, boycott their products. This needs to start a wave of email, phonecall disgust. And what’s that, Rush is dating her? is that true?
WOW!
That’s a gem - a Keeper - bookmark that , everyone.
THANKS Kim4VRWC’s
I think someone was tired and silly but not disrespectful. Or, she may have been referring to the three Wise Monkeys; hear no evil, say no evil, see no evil. That would be in line with “W”s approach to the office of President.
Your awareness of the CNBC personalities exceeds mine by a considerable margin. Not surprisingly, since although I have the video on quite a bit during the morning, I nearly always have the sound muted.
I called this number and told them to fire the bozo and why. Ask for customer feedback.
Everyone should do this.
201-735-2622
I just called the number
201-735-2622
and then press ‘0”
Tell them you want to speak to someone about the recent Erin Burnett piece - they will direct you and you get a live person - I gave them my comment and ended with “She’s lucky she didn’t call the least significant democrat a monkey - she’d already be on the unemployment line.”
NO...
The Monkey, Chimp, Chimponomics, etc has been a staple of TRUTHOUT and ALTERNET hatred toward Bush for some years...
A few examples from another board I use:
“CHIMP HAS STOPPED SAYING ‘THE ENEMY WILL FOLLOW US HOME’”
“Greenspan: Chimp Idiot, Clinton Smart”
“The Chimp displeases me greatly. As do all you dittoheads who support him”
OR Monkey:
“But the ignorant sheeples were again duped by a monkey with the usual lies and obfuscation.”
“you won’t let Monkey take the blame for the housing bubble”
Here is an example from monday that I cannot post here:

This type of minimalization insult is a hallmark of our “Caring” and “Compasionate” liberal friends.

"?" back attcha..."twit" is in MY dictionary - which one you using?
I’m so sick and tired of this crap. Erin Burnett needs to be fired. This is sick. I’m tired of these journalists being jerks. She is unprofessional and beyond contempt. She’s probably laughing her ass off, thinking she was funny to her lib friends, but it was classless and disgraceful. I don’t even want an apology from her, I just want her gone. She doesn’t deserve any sympathy, she deserves much scorn.
