We're not usually news hounds, but if you don't already
know, NBC has banned Ann Coulter from future appearances on their network news shows and affiliates. I assume Lady Ann was being paid.
Since well before the 2006 mid-terms we'd been writing Roger Ailes at FOX, O'Reilly and anyone else who would listen, that if they really wanted to distance themselves from the mainstream media, they'd do two things: One, fire Geraldo and two, draw line in the sand that any talking head or politician who appeared on one of their shows and lied would be barred for life, and publically denounced. A One-Strike-and-Out policy.
One-upped once again. With a running start of two years, at least, and the prospects of embarrassing God knows how many public figures for telling lies, instead NBC fires Lady Ann Coulter first...for telling the truth.
No matter what Fox does now, it will just look like they're getting even.
