SAWYER: Well, free speech enables you to end this interview by attacking me! Thank you very much.

You have got to read this interview. If Sayer thinks that Larry Elder was attacking her, we're in so much trouble.

You hit the nail on the head. What these brainiacs don’t realize is that if they don’t quit with this hyper-sensitive tyranny, the amount of resent generated will outweigh any “benefit” of minding “p’s” and “q’s” when expressing one’s constitutional right to an opinion.

This all started with Clinton, when they fended off legimate criticism by calling it a “personal attack.” Meanwhile it was fine for the Dems to start referring to conservatives as extremists.

Gee, I thought Diane was supposed to be a Republican because 30+ years ago she worked for Nixon. The left point this out as if it somehow brings “balance” to the media. What a laugh. As Ann Coulter pointed out, Sawyer was a low level staffer in the Nixon White House, and after President Nixon left office. She was hardly a right wing activist.

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

And here we are. A liberal gets her feelings hurt and leaves her guest wondering if HIS remarks might be the next food for the feeding frenzy.

Just because Larry Elder is a black American, does not make him right or give him a opportunity to speak in Diane Sawyer’s world.

To the politically correct, what is of utmost importance is that you agree with them. Especially in the infotainment world of ABCDisney news for housewives.

The programs are not about dialgue, they are about soundbites and the appearance of balance (”See, we have a conservative on!!!”).

Al Sharpton has repeatedly refused to appear on Larry Elder’s show.

Nah. Sawyer knew Larry wasn’t attacking her. It’s just projection and a useful idiot buzzword. Accuse the other guy of doing what you are doing/what you usually do. I saw Mary Ann Marsh accuse GWB of ‘going negative’ in the run up to the 2004 election when GWB had said nothing even remotely questionable. The first accuser always gets the sympathy.

It appears that any contradiction or clarification by any non-liberal is going to be characterized as an attack. I find this reaction by Ms. Sawyer very, very surprising...and maybe alarming.

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??
