A wildly liberal review of Al Franken v. Fox case, but with some good nuggets: Ann is called "Killer Barbie"--I think she'd like that; a proposed Al Franken v. Ann Coulter show--I'd love to see it, but I think it'd be boring for the general public seeing Al get beaten up. But Ann may make up for that. What do you think?

I report, you decide.

Have an e-mail for this schlub?

If it's the ballerina Ron Reagan jr., I'll claw my eyes out and Van Gogh my ears. What a loser. Can Franken hold up a little better against Coulter than Ron Jr.?

[alnick]

Patriotism is cheesy, according to this creep. Isn't that nice?

Coulter is way out of Franken's league. She'd have him whimpering before the end of the first episode.

[bolobaby]

Leave it up to this liberal-lover to distort the facts. Notice the mention that Coulter's book is #47 on Amazon? Yeah, NOW. What about when it first came out?

Or how about accusing Alan Colmes of being the most liberal voice on the network? Riiiiight. Alan doesn't get me half as angry as the regular contributions of, say, Susan Estrich or Eleanor Clift.

Ultimately, it sounds like another sore loser that Fox News is gaining popularity. Too bad, so sad. Who's crying now?

[StoneColdTaxHater]

I fear a franken vs Couler show would devolce into a weekly screaming match. I have heard that Franken gets unhinged when cornered and things don't go his way.

Defending a trademark is hardly the same as trying to stop him from publishing ANY book. This free speech defense is crap.

If I wrote a book called "Live from New York, It's Saturday Night and Al Franken still sucks" I suspect that NBC would want me to change the title as well.

[Tallguy]

Coulter v. Franken? Hmmmm? At first blush it sounds interesting, but like all liberals, Al Franken is long on assertions & short on facts. Coulter would slice him 'n dice him.

Bullies always whimper when they get the bejeezus beat out of them, especially by a nerdy-looking guy with glasses [Franken's comedic persona], and especially when such a big crowd is watching the fisticuffs.

Au contrair! I seem to recall a recent blurb on NewsMax relating how Franken did an in-your-face challenge to a group of Fox folks at some correspondents dinner, and that Franken was later seen nursing a bloody nose.

I have news for you, that's no "comedic persona," that is really him. The fairy in the pink sweater with all the 16 step programs was a comedic persona. Then again........

[skeeter]

Why not a political shouting show that pits Franken against one of Fox's conservative firebrands?

Excellent idea. Pit Franken against Dennis Miller.

Money couldn't buy that kind of entertainment.

The Killer Barbies are a band (that has been around in Spain for over 6 years). He probably overheard it from his kids (they are slowly getting introduced to America, their film came out on US DVD last year).

If this author is going to talk about someone losing it, he should probably try watching Al Franken on tv sometime:

Al Franken Flips Out on CNN (link to transcript inside)

"I am the co-host of this show. I am the co-host of this show. I am the co-host of this show. Let me say one thing. I am the co-host of this show. I get to say this. Now, Dick Cheney ..."

Why not a political shouting show that pits Franken against one of Fox's conservative firebrands?

Because Fox doesn't want their ratings to look like CNN's, perhaps?

[nutmeg]

Right now, the most liberal among all the conservative voices on Fox is Alan Colmes of Hannity & Colmes.

Huh? This sentence leaves you with the impression that Colmes is the only liberal at FNC.

The following flaming liberals are on the payroll of Fox News (and make regular appearances): Alan Colmes, Greta Van Sustern, Susan Estrich, Ellis Henican, Eleanor Clift, Geraldo Rivera, David Corn, Geraldine Ferraro, Mara Liasson, Juan Williams, Ellen Ratner, Gregg Hymowitz...

These are just a FEW of them that I can name off the top of my head.

FoxFan ping!

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my FoxFan list. *Warning: This can be a high-volume ping list at times.

[lawgirl]

You can't put AL Franken on TV because he goes insane. He can't stand anyone disagreeing with him and he gets loud and asinine.

How come you are a satirist if you rip on the right, but, if you rip on the left, you are full of hate and deserve to be burned in effigy?
