NBC BANS COULTER FOR LIFE; CUT FROM 'TODAY' SHOW OVER BOOK'S CLAIMS, NO MORE CABLE
Mon Jan 05 2009 17:50:57 ET

The nation's top selling conservative author has been banned from appearing on NBC, insiders tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

Banned for life!

"We are just not going to have her on any more, it's over," a top network source explains.

NBC's TODAY show abruptly cut Ann Coulter from its planned Tuesday broadcast, claiming the schedule was overbooked.

Coulter was set to unveil her new book, GUILTY.

But one network insider claims it was the book's theme -- a brutal examination of liberal bias in the new era -- that got executives to dis-invite the controversialist.

"We are just not interested in anyone so highly critical of President-elect Obama, right now," a TODAY insider reveals. "It's such a downer. It's just not the time, and it's not what our audience wants, either."

For the book, Coulter reportedly received the most-lucrative advance ever paid to a conservative author.

The TODAY show eagerly invited the author months ago, for her first network interview on GUILTY.

The exclusive was to air during the show's 7 AM hour. The cut came Monday afternoon.

Executives at NBC TODAY replaced Coulter with showbiz reporter Perez Hilton, who recently offer $1,000 to anyone who would throw a pie at Ann Coulter. Hilton is also launching a new book this week, RED CARPET SUICIDE.

***I’m telling you...Obama is Hitler made over. I see it happening and everyone thinks I’m crazy around here...things like this just confirm my fears.***

**I don’t think you’re crazy.**

Ditto, we’re not the only ones. I became convinced when the OBAMA YOUTH appeared with their Songs on video..

someone took the soundtrack of that vid, and attached it to the “Hitler YOUTH Scene from “CABARET”. It’s still on youtube somewhere..and it still Scares me.

Katie is feeling a double whammy. First by her "master's" leash and then by "Hardball" having his way with her!

If it’s not true, I expect to see a LOT of libel lawsuits aimed at her.

Let's see: Media Matters, David Brock & George Soros.

THAT'S the photo I remember from many decades ago. Good work.

That scene was burned in my memory. NBC's censorship action brought it right to my front lobes today!

Can you post it on this thread? I'll bet many old-timers will remember it well.

Rats - missed another one. All that’s left is a smouldering hole in the ground.

Good job, Kitties.

She is saying it was a set-up from the word go. Now she will be on CBS Early Show instead.

I tried a couple of times, but I couldn't unlearn years of English grammar, diction and spelling in order to "read" at a sub-second grade level.

I apologize to any literate second-graders that I might have offended. ;-)
