Was Diane Sawyer Drunk On Air? Some Say Yes. Some Say No. ABC Denies. You Watch Video And Decide

Body Copy Reads:

Diane Sawyer Still Obviously Intoxicated

The Inaugural Balls went on all night and it looks like Good Morning America's Diane Sawyer enjoyed the open bars. Thanks, ABC, for not pulling her off the air despite all this slurred nonsense.

Thanks to hero intern Bette Bentley for compiling this wonderful video of America's Drunkest Former Nixon Staffer Journalist mumbling things about children and boots.

CORRECTION, JESUS: Diane Sawyer did not attend a single ball! She was up all night reporting. So they just had her on GMA after a full 24 hours of being on television despite the fact that no news actually happened yesterday, or this morning. It was a sick Jackass-style stunt of some kind we think?

She was either totally smashed or she has a severe undiagnosed case of diabetes. In either case, it is totally irresponsible to permit a news correspondent in that condition to be on the air. It’s bad enough that most of them are ill informed and spew propaganda, but to actually let one of them spill their ity-bitty brains is truth in broadcasting.

Maybe she drank from the sacred cup of the NON PRESIDENT BO
the messiah?

She was on a major toot. Drunk as a skunk.

Ugh, what an ass.

Wow...it could be she was punch drunk from lack of sleep...combined with Obama Worship Syndrome.

That said...if I had pulled her over as a cop, I’d have had her take a breath test.

Ann Compton (ABC Radio News) was seriously “in her cups” all afternoon. Multiple missed words in every top-of-the-hour update.

She should have been yanked by the producers immediately. Then again, they were probably tanked as well. Unbelievable.

The interview I saw her do with Joe the Plumber I would have sworn she was on the sauce. Maybe she has a “problem” no one wants to admit. I once worked with a woman who was a wino and some people do a pretty good job of covering up that they are tipsy all day, but sometimes it’s pretty obvious.

Drunk.. sober... what difference would it make? She’s just as incoherent either way.

She might as well be out on a ledge, six stories up; being on heels like that at her age while sloshed. I thought she was going to go weepy there when he called her boots functional!

Undeniably drunk...typically stupid

Did you hear the part where she says “I took off my socks and my ...” and then it stops .

Could it be is she possibly going Commando ?

Hammered.

But not to fear. All will be forgiven after she goes to a fancy-shmancy rehab. It's the way of the elite.
