NPR, MSNBC, Current TV Fleeing From Anti-Palin Random House Hoax Bio; McGinnis Claims Cover-Up
Big Journalism ^ | Monday September 26, 2011 | Joel Polleck

Posted on 09/26/2011 6:43:30 AM PDT by Bigtigermike

Joe McGinniss complained to lefty blog Firedoglake yesterday that almost everyone is canceling interviews in which he was to have discussed his book, The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin:

Terry Gross [of NPR's Fresh Air] has declined to have me on her show. As have all other NPR shows. My fifteen seconds as part of a report on All Things Considered is all I get from NPR. I’m told they are scared of losing more federal funding if right wing Congresspeople complain that they are “promoting” my book.

FYI, both Morning Joe and Keith Olbermann had me booked for last week, but canceled when they saw which way the wind was blowing.

It’s not the wind Joe - it’s you, you are a liar and seriously deranged. Seems you will be the last to know it.

He created a monster, but the monster turned out not to be Sarah Palin...but him.

This is good progress folks!!

as late as 5 years ago the libtard presstitutes could have gotten away with promoting this guy as some kind of truth hero

Now they know we are onto them, and this guy is going to get his ass sued off for malicious libel- and they don't want to be a part of the lawsuits since they know that WE know he is full of crap

(5 years ago the actual truth would not have mattered to them, but since Obozo they have completely lost all credibility)

Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

“I’m told they are scared of losing more federal funding...”

NPR or GE/MSNBC....or both?

Sometimes a biography says more about the author than the subject matter...

It isn’t a right wing conspiracy, Joe. You are just a lousy writer.

I don’t see this a progress as much as it is them wanting to preserve some shred of appearing intellectual. They can see this book for what it is - a poorly written, over the top, hit piece. If it were good or more subtle attack, they would be all over it.

Also, maybe the presstitutes are heeding THIS warning from the same band:

...and though I could not caution all,
I still might warn a few.
Don't lend your hand to raise no flag,
atop no ship of fools...

---from Ship of Fools (Hunter/Garcia)

(grammatical issues aside, it IS good advice)

...or maybe, Joe, it’s because what you call a book is actually a pile of excrement smashed between two hard covers, and even the lefties can smell it.

The only thing they are “afraid of” is getting the poo all over them.

This jackass still has time to “vet” the current Kenyan-born, illegal alien living in our White House. Would love to know about Obambi’s boytoy squirreled away somewhere in the Virgin Islands, Obambi’s grades in school (ALL OF THEM), etc.

And he wouldn’t have to move next door to Obambi either!

Usually liberals wallow in this type of ‘literary’ hatred expressedt toward conservatives - especially conservative women... Maybe liberals are finally seeing themselves as the bullies they are .... and they’re ashamed.
