Today contributor Star Jones was livid that Sarah Palin was featured on Today Tuesday morning and that she had to appear on a segment with the former governor of Alaska, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
Palin co-hosted the second hour of Today in a bid to up ratings as Katie Couric is filling in this week for vacationing Robin Roberts on rival show Good Morning America.
During Matt Lauer's interview with Palin in the first hour of the show she referred to the press as "lamestream media" at least three times and Jones couldn't believe Matt didn't address those comments. "Star was watching the interview in the green room and she was absolutely floored that Sarah Palin as a guest on the Today show was basically calling everyone on set lame," a show insider tells RadarOnline.com exclusively. "Star was incensed that Sarah was allowed to make such inflammatory comments. Star is the consummate professional and couldn't fathom why Sarah would be so negative as a guest and Star was livid about the comments.
The former co-host of The View was on a panel with Palin, called Ask The Experts, during the second hour of Today. "Star could barely look at Sarah and insisted that she be seated on the opposite end from her," the source says. "Star is a lawyer, a former prosecutor and has worked very hard in her life to get where she is. Star didn't understand why Sarah was on the panel because she doesn't have anything worth contributing. Star also didn't believe Sarah when she said that she hadn't seen Julianne Moore playing her in the movie Game Change."

I bet she was so angry that she had to eat another dozen dozen just to calm down. And then a dozen more because she was still hungry and it wasn’t time for lunch yet.
Star who?
Never heard of her before now. Why would anyone consider a nobody important?
STFU ya lame dame.
I can sympathize. I feel the same way whenever I see Jane Fonda’s name in print.
The “tolerant” types have zero tolerance.
she has already made a place for herself.
One has to actually watch Today regularly, to know who she is.
I had the same issue - yesterday was my first time even watching NBC at all, for some time. I imagine a lot of us fit that category yesterday.
NBC just may have caught a fleeting glimpse, of how big a potential market is out here, for any media which is not trying to brainwash us.
The technology is certainly there, for someone in some corner office at NBC to realize, how many people they’ve driven away.

They should stick with who is sleeping with whom, doing what drug, driving while drunk and the rest of that celeb mess. Leave me out of it.

It doesn’t phase me when they make up silly stuff...but to make up ENTIRE conversations about things that DID NOT occur is just pathetic.

Do the folks at that ridiculous Radar rag just sit at their desk & make up stuff? That was rhetorical...because I KNOW for certain they do.

That line right there was worth plodding through this story. Starr Jones is an incompetent Affirmative Action hire of the first order. Her entire "career" is nothing but being canned and scandal.
This ignorant loser is jealous that NBC needed to go to Palin to boost rating because their normal daily performance can't compete with another loser...Katie Couric.
Who cares what Star Jones thinks? Or wants to listen to her?
“”Star was incensed that Sarah was allowed to make such inflammatory comments.””
That’s right, Star, only libs are allowed “to make such inflammatory comments.”
Go Sarah! Take it to them!
Lamestream refers to the prevailing liberal group-think within the media. It doesn’t mean every person who’s a journalist is brain-dead...
Hey Star Jones: chill, baby, chill!
I've never seen a liberal 'tolerant' of anyone or any group that wasn't considered 'liberal'.
Liberals are never 'tolerant' of gun owners, or people who want 'immigration' restricted, or conservatives, or right to lifers. Nope, they're only 'tolerant' of themselves. And they wonder why we laugh at them...

Agree, never heard of her
