Tell CNN Not to Ditch Coulter
by Robert B. Bluey
Posted Nov 29, 2005
David Brock's Media Matters for America today asked it supporters to "Tell CNN to ditch Coulter". The fundraising and publicity pleads: "It's time for CNN to stop helping Ann Coulter to spew her false and offensive bile to the American public".
Coulter, HUMAN EVENTS' Legal Affairs Correspondent, is a favorite of Brock's to attack. She appeared on the network last week, apparently prompting the dispatch from Media Matters.
As a public service for conservatives, I'm sharing Media Matters' email with you. As liberals bombard CNN with anti-Coulter emails, there's nothing stopping you from writing pro-Coulter letters.
Here's Media Matters' letter:
Last Friday, right-wing radical Ann Coulter made her 10th appearance on CNN since the beginning of 2004. On the November 25 edition of "Lou Dobbs Tonight," she "discussed" her recent column, in which she called Democrats "gutless traitors" and explained that Democrats' behavior shows they "long to see U.S. troops shot, humiliated, and driven from the field of battle." Why does CNN continue to give Coulter a platform to air her outrageous statements?
On other occasions, Coulter has accused the Democratic Party of "support[ing] killing, lying, adultery, thievery, envy," written that the only question about Bill Clinton was "whether to impeach or assassinate," and said that her "only regret" about the Oklahoma City bombing was that Timothy McVeigh "did not go to the New York Times building." Following a column she wrote in the wake of the September 11, 2001, attacks -- in which she wrote that the United States' response to the terrorists should be to "invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity" -- the conservative National Review Online dropped her column. She was also fired by MSNBC for comments she made on the air in 1997.
Coulter also has a long history of spreading false information. She has falsely claimed that a "majority of Hispanics voted in favor of" Proposition 187, a controversial California ballot measure that sought to deny illegal immigrants most government services; in fact, exit polling shows that the vast majority of Hispanics voted against Proposition 187. After Hurricane Katrina, Coulter appeared on Fox News and made several false statements pertaining to the hurricane and the relief efforts taking place in its aftermath.
It's time for CNN to stop helping Ann Coulter to spew her false and offensive bile to the American public.

I would like to ask Ann why she is giving ratings to CNN.
You know the rules....
Hmm...And what exactly is wrong about that?
Methinks they dost protest too much.
I guess this qualifies as "offensive bile" to the idiot leftists.
What stupidity.
Too late. I already ditched CNN.
And why Ann appears on Bill Maher's show.
If you insist....
Maybe he'll pull the "You're scared to come on my show!" line if she refuses...
Exit polls also showed John Freekin Kerry to be winning L0L
There is nothin like the media using BS #s as fact to prove thier point
Brock is a screeching little turd burglar.
Me too. I almost didn't post this, figuring what do I care about CNN, and then thought maybe Coulter fans here might want to know about it.
David Brock,, Isn't he the guy who used to be conservative, then he used to like guys and now he's not so conservative,,
anyway way too much for me to follow.
Hmmm...seems we should be using their "line of reasoning" to get PBS de-funded!
Slander and Treason were two very well written books that completely trashed the Liberals, but her reaction to the Miers nomination was sophomoric at best, and idiotic at worst
Outrageous statements? LOL. We have Dems on record saying those things - Ann is merely citing your own words.
Although I don't know why she's going on CNN - no one of consequence takes CNN seriously anymore.
Liberalism is only effective when it goes unchallenged. Most liberals only understand ( or think they understand ) conservatism by how it is explained to them by liberals.
