But this thread is not about what I think of her, it's about what is acceptable behavior for a news program. Essentially calling a best-selling author a "bitch" on a newscast? There is absolutely NO excuse for this.

Truth is an absolute defense. If Ann Coulter showed even a little class, she wouldn't be open to the charges of being a "bitch." But with the little verbal grenades she lobs, she is essentially the Right's version of Michael Moore.

I agree. Coulter goes over the top. I think she does this to sell books and get attention. I have read some of her books, which are well researched and have excellent analytical findings. However, she takes it too far with her grenade throwing.

Moore intentionally and maliciously lies, deceives and misrepresents. Please offer evidence that Coulter does the same with the same frequency as Moore.

She lobs verbal grenades, but she is accurate and truthful. Michael Moore is, at best, inaccurate. He is also just plain dishonest and presents as factual things he KNOWS are not true. He is a pig.

When you catch Ann misrepresenting or just plain lying, then you can call her the right's version of Michael Moore. Until then you are just plain wrong.

You are so WRONG!

Ann exposed how Godless the Democratic Psrty has
become similar to Marxist-Lenin-Stalin revolutionary communist.

So they attack her as seen below:

Hillary now has found religion.

I'll stick with Ann. I know Ann's style of logic and humor is working because George Soros is spending millions for Clinton's new communist party. Talk Radio along with Ann Coulter are attacked daily because they are the communists way.

The problem with your analogy is that Coulter presents what is essentially the truth in a caustic way. Moore on the other hand tells lie after lie.

Coulter at times sacrifices good taste to bring attention to important topics. Moore sacrifices the truth and good taste to advance his agenda that is not supported by the truth.

The similarities between Moore and Coulter are superficial at best.

You don’t understand the difference between Invective humor and namecalling. All of Queen Ann’s jokes have a foundation of truth and that is what the commies hate about her.

PravdABDNC is using censorship to keep her off “their” airwaves since they know they fear her to their bones. But yeah, you can go ahead and hide behind your holier than thou attitude under the bed.

Pray for W and Our Troops

More often than not, Ann's "bitchy" moments are simply her saying similar things that libs have said about conservatives without an uproar. If Bill Mahar wishes Cheny dead, no problem. If Ann wishes John Edwards dead, national crisis.

I'm with Ann and don't give a flip what Lizzy Edwards thinks. In fact, it proves Ann's point!

A while back, I read about someone at DU gleefully bragging about being a longtime Freeper, who is trusted and listened to on FR.
I can’t imagine it being either of you because you’re just not that slick.

Whether Ann Coulter is a bitch or not is not the point of this discussion. The point is, could you imagine them running that music after a story about Hillary or Pelosi? They are both open to those charges as well.

The bias of the DBM is flagrant and consistent. This is only another example.
