Nine Speakers, the agency that represents Helen Thomas, has dropped her as a client. This comes in the wake of controversial remarks on the Middle East.
The notice, obtained by POLITICO:
It is with a heavy heart that Nine Speakers, Inc. announces its resignation as the agent for Helen Thomas, Dean of the White House Press Corps.
Ms. Thomas has had an esteemed career as a journalist, and she has been a trailblazer for women, helping others in her profession, and beyond.
However, in light of recent events, Nine Speakers is no longer able to represent Ms. Thomas, nor can we condone her comments on the Middle East.
Nine Speakers will continue to enthusiastically represent all of our other current and future clients.
She just took a century longer than most.
I’m shocked.
Shocked that it took that long, or that it actually happened at all?
Didn’t Lincoln once have her detained for pro-rebel sympathies? Or was that Washington for her tory remarks?
Yeah the ignorant bigot gets what she deserves! Now which left stream media outlet is going to pick her up.
“Shocked that it took that long, or that it actually happened at all?”
Both! Don’t know if I’m correct but I haven’t noticed the Helen Thomas antisemetic remark being discussed on the msm, so I figured, yep, when one of their own makes a remark it’s a free pass.
No, that was Robert Byrd.
Helen survived the Titanic debacle.
Wait until she finds out that Stormfront doesn’t pay diddly.
LOL! Any port in a storm.

Maybe odumbo will give her a job
“We no longer represent Helen for books or lectures or anything else,” Nine added in an email to the Huffington Post.
Meanwhile, on Sunday, Time Magazine’s Joe Klein penned a post for the website arguing that Thomas should no longer be able to sit in the front row at daily press briefings — albeit because she was a editorialist as much as for her incendiary remarks.

No; the Jamestown settlers had her put in stocks.
Nine Speakers: Helen Thomas needs to get the hell out.
Gibbs should be aware: 0bama might give his job to her.
