That is considered an attack?

How does Diane keep her blood in, with skin that thin?

Well that’ll teach her to interview those rabid, foaming at the mouth right-wing Conservatives, now won’t it?

“Good for Larry. A big part of the problem in this country is that the idiot masses don’t understand that the Bill of Rights, which includes the right to freedom of speech, only restricts government behavior. Individuals and private companies can limit speech any way they want. Diane should know better.”

Exactly! It’s amazing how many out there don’t get this. I got so sick of hearing how the dixie chix were denied free speech because people stopped buying their records, and had the nerve to criticize them. If I said what Imus said, my company would fire me too.

Technically, yes. But wouldn't that make it less offensive? In other words, Imus could say, "I wasn't besmirching ALL black women like the rap artists do".

Let me preface by saying both are offensive.

That said, which is more offensive to you personally:

1) Conservatives are a-holes.
2) Freepers are a-holes.

There is a difference in how personally you take each statement.

Teaching liberal TV personalities sound thoughtful is like teaching pigs to sing. It hurts your ears and just frustrates the pig.

the MSM is quick to identify people as "conservative" even if they don't see themselves that way.

I'm hearing now that Imus is a conservative. I wonder if he is as surprised to hear that as I am!

Diane Sawyer is a manipulative phony and a typical lib. Sawyer cries “victim” after being “attacked” by the “conservative” to cover up for her own stupidity. What a clown.

I don’t think Sawyer thought Elder was attacking her...but, SHE is the smart one, how DARE he make a smarter point than she??

Why shouldn’t he Diane??? Are you upset cause you are a woman, or upset because he is a black man...that didn’t go along with YOUR agenda??

Diane Sawyer is a manipulative phony and a typical lib.

That may be ... but she's reasonably easy to look at ... not the pinched, thin lips,
and squinty little eyes look of a typical liberal female.

Wow, Diane has thin skin. And seems to be dumb as well.

I knew Diane when. She does and she is.

I’m surprised Sawyer hasn’t filed “intellectual rape” charges against Larry. /sarcasm

Diane Sawyer: A twit parroting liberal talking points. Has no friggin’ idea what she’s talking about.

I can't watch Diane Sawyer for a stupid and weird reason.

It's her mouth. When you see her talking on camera, it looks like she is borrowing/renting someone else's lips and she still hasn't gotten used to it. It gets real creepy if you watch her a while.

I heard Larry comment about this on his show this afternoon. Maybe I’m wrong, but I got the impression that he felt Diane was kidding with him when she said that.

“There were big smiles on both sides, but one sensed that Sawyer’s feelings had indeed been hurt, and that Elder was trying to recover from what he feared might have been a GMA-career ending moment.”

I’m sure it isn’t that important to Larry if he ever goes on GMA again. If he was trying to smooth things over, it was because he is a gentleman. Additionally, he values truth, and is not someone who kisses up.

Go Sage!
