NBC BANS COULTER FOR LIFE; CUT FROM 'TODAY' SHOW OVER BOOK'S CLAIMS, NO MORE CABLE
Mon Jan 05 2009 17:50:57 ET

The nation's top selling conservative author has been banned from appearing on NBC, insiders tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

Banned for life!

"We are just not going to have her on any more, it's over," a top network source explains.

NBC's TODAY show abruptly cut Ann Coulter from its planned Tuesday broadcast, claiming the schedule was overbooked.

Coulter was set to unveil her new book, GUILTY.

But one network insider claims it was the book's theme -- a brutal examination of liberal bias in the new era -- that got executives to dis-invite the controversialist.

"We are just not interested in anyone so highly critical of President-elect Obama, right now," a TODAY insider reveals. "It's such a downer. It's just not the time, and it's not what our audience wants, either."

For the book, Coulter reportedly received the most-lucrative advance ever paid to a conservative author.

The TODAY show eagerly invited the author months ago, for her first network interview on GUILTY.

The exclusive was to air during the show's 7 AM hour. The cut came Monday afternoon.

Executives at NBC TODAY replaced Coulter with showbiz reporter Perez Hilton, who recently offer $1,000 to anyone who would throw a pie at Ann Coulter. Hilton is also launching a new book this week, RED CARPET SUICIDE.

I “pre-ordered” her book. It will be in my grubby little mitts on Thursday.

Are you sure they didn’t just put her on Double Secret Probation?

Alright Ann!
Way to go!
What an honor!
I hope this propels your new book #1, but not like it wouldn’t have gotten there anyway.

In the publishing world, there is no such thing as bad publicity.

We should have guessed. NBC has probably not even read Ann’s book. They are taking the word of an ADMITTED LIAR, David Brock!

“Media Matters has been picking apart the book, and last week asked the following: “Is NBC going to help Coulter sell this book?” Seems like they’re not.”

LMAO! I love Ann!

I'm buying her book, just to spite the media.

Liberals, the philosophy of the tolerance and open-mindedness. Ha ha! They prove themselves hypocrites again and again. NBC can dish it, but can't take it. I don't watch them anyway.
