No, Shep, I’m afraid she didn’t say she wished he’d be killed in a terrorist assassination plot. Is even Fox not immune to this crap?

Shep Smith of Fox News repeated the lie that Coulter wished Edwards was killed in a terrorist assassination plot.

Here is what Ann said (full transcript here)

ANN COULTER (POLITICAL COMMENTATOR)

Though about the same time Bill Maher said - and by the way, I did not call John Edwards the F-word. I said I couldn't talk about him because you go into rehab for using that word.

CHRIS CUOMO (ABC NEWS)

(Off-camera) You say you were you - you were joking.

ANN COULTER (POLITICAL COMMENTATOR)

About the - oh yeah. I wouldn't, I wouldn't insult gays by comparing them to John Edwards. Now, that would be mean. But about the same time, you know, Bill Maher was not joking and saying he wished Dick Cheney had been killed in a terrorist attack. So I've learned my lesson. If I'm gonna say anything about John Edwards in the future, I'll just wish he had been killed in a terrorist assassination plot.

I’d like to smear Edwards. Remember playing “smear the queer”?

Didn’t Shep just recently say in a speech that it wasn’t about factual news but rather entertaining television?

I saw this and immediately tried to find contact information for Sh!+, I mean Shep. He’s a lib so this is to be expected, but Fox should reign him in. It pisses off Fox viewers.

I used to think she was hot, but now all I think when I see her is “Eat something! Please!!!”

Hate to say it, but on this one CNN gave Coulter a fair hearing, courtesy of Glenn Beck - he had her on his show tonight and gave her time to explain the whole dustup with Edwards.......

Why would you contribute to CNN’s ratings? Block them out of your channel menu as well as PMSNBC ; )

Usually repested the same night at 9:00 - Beck also occasionally repeats portions of each week’s programs on Friday.....

I give Beck’s ratings a boost - let CNN see that the one conservative they have on gives them a big bump in viewers during that time slot (Beck now gets higher ratings than that old veteran Washington insider Chrissy Mathews)......

Beck getting higher ratings then Chris is like Burger King selling whoppers for 1.01. and McDonald’s selling Big macs for .98 cents..not to much difference between the tow of them.

I do like Beck’s radio program, CNN is just such a non starter for me after they aired the Terrorist Sniping our soldiers in Iraq video that they asked to obtain from the Terrs.

Shep hasn’t been the same since he beat up on that girl in the fight over a parling space in Florida in the 2000 recount.

Since they can’t win with the words, the politically correct and the weak have to twist around the words and cry that so and so said whatever they twist around the words to.
