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.

My dream ticket for next conservative presidential election would be Palin/Coulter. Can you imagine actually watching the left’s MSM so-called newsies and pols heads burst at the thought of actually having to speak with these two powerful and “tell it like it is” women.

My goodness, just fantacizing about it sets my heart apace.

John Lennon should have said and maybe it’s what he really meant to say that, ‘It’s as if we’re (The Beatles) more popular than Jesus.’ Now, President Bush could’ve said but he didn’t say that, ‘It’s as if we’re addicted to oil...”

I remember there used to be a teevee network in the 20th century called National Broadcasting Company or NBC. I wonder if this NBC is the same thing..

1. Ann was born a woman.

2. She is still twice as manly as you, girlyman. In fact, every female less girly than Hello Kitty is more manly than you.

Now she needs to write an all-encompassing, tell-all, no-holds-barred, salacious-insider-filled critique and history of NBC. So they can wring their hands about whether or not to interview her when it’s a bestseller.

And, here is new Ann's column -- about "GUILTY" -- and NBC, and the media's "Beatlemania" about Obama:

“and it’s not what our audience wants, either.”

NBC has an audience? When did that happen?
