Needless to say but that's the last time I listen to Kim Komando's show.
I have never heard this woman, but from your description, she is either not honest, not bright or both.
Thanks for the post. That is really disappointing. She defended Rush once (but he has some of the same advertisers as she does), so I’m not sure if it was genuine.

You read into it what you want but but it certainly wasn’t an anti Trump rant and she is 100 Percent correct when she states Google is a privately owned company and the government has no business interfering. Don’t like Google, don’t use them, don’t like Facebook, don’t use it. Do they try to manipulate what we see, sure seems so but that is none of the governments business. The choice to use them as a source is yours. That’s all she said.
Haven't listened in a good while but I got the impression that she that she leaned Conservative.
Oh well...
She sounded fairly conservative, most of the time, in the advise she gave her call-in people on the talk show.
It was only a week ago that I was stunned to hear her describe the New York Times, and other leftist outlets, as "credible" when a call-in asked her a question about why the call in was getting so few hits from Google. The call in said she thought she was being discriminated against for being conservative.
She has become wealthy from the show, and now spends half her time in her mansion in Hawaii.
Hawaii is ultra-leftist.
I do not know her net worth. It could easily be a hundred million or more.
... and I think she’s wrong.
I think there are unique circumstances to cases where information companies are SO big that, yes, in the public interest, one side or the other of the political spectrum should not be silenced - particularly in stealth fashion by a bunch of butt-hurt leftists out to destroy the country.
These corporations have a civic duty, since they present themselves as “fair and balanced” to BE “fair and balanced.” Same with the networks. I don’t think the problems in this country are going to get under control until the government stomps down on these people and MAKE them either stop being propaganda outlets for the Democrat party or declare themselves to be so so that people aren’t deluded into thinking the mis- and non-information they’re getting is real.
I read the transcript. Her comments seem libertarian to me, and not particularly anti-Trump. The problem is that when large corporations behave badly, the tendency is for Government to step in, ostensibly to protect the people, but what ends up happening is the erosion of liberty.
who?
Is she Korean?
In the end the millionaire had to pay me several thousand dollars and is,if I'm not mistaken,still under investigation by the SEC thanks,at least partially,to info that *I* gave them.
And Kim Kommando took his side.
Given my personally experience with her I'd be stunned if she did anything *but* side with The Swamp.
My guess is she found newer technology such as AI, robotics, and cloud computing too difficult to learn and she has now turned to “politics.”
Perhaps she is like the well known actors who think their talent lends itself to political opinions more important than the opinions of lesser known people.
She must be up for contract renewal.
I used to hear her one minute comment at the end of the Show that Barry Young fronted (her husband) on KFYI. Haven’t heard her since then and haven’t heard any commentary from Barry Young about Trump since Young retired. I suspect they are both anti-Trump. I once called in to the show to complain about the SCOTUS saying that the Obamacare ‘fine’ could be interpreted as a tax, as even Kagan (who definitely should have recused herself) had argued it WASN’T A TAX. Young said that the SCOTUS could interpret the word any way they wanted. Period. Not supportive of The People. He reiterated that Roberts had said ‘the SCOTUS is not the place for The People to get a remedy from the person they elected’ (paraphrased). I hate John Roberts.......a ‘Conservative’ in sheep’s clothing.
“...and if Google is doing so (suppressing free speech), it’s not a problem because Google is a private company and not “the government” thus not a problem”
People on our side have to be VERY CAREFUL about accepting this rationale, as this is something that the Left will always throw at us, since they like to hit us in our ‘weak’ areas, one of them being the defense of private enterprise.
In this case, the thing to do is TURN IT AROUND and ask whether it would have been ok for AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, etc. to shut off their telephone and Internet service to the Obama campaign a few months before the 2008 election - thereby crippling his campaign, because they felt that Obama was unqualified to become president (after all, his only time in federal office was less than 4 years in the Senate). By the Left’s rationale, that would have been just fine.
So, morally, they have nothing to stand on. Technically, by disabling the campaign of the opposition, they have made an IN-KIND POLITICAL CONTRIBUTION (to McCain, in this case, being 2008), and would be breaking the law, since corporations still cannot make political contributions (direct or in-kind...it’s basically the same).
This crap needs to end.
Whatever happened to Barry Young? Never hear a thing after he left Phoenix KFYI.
She’s a natural blonde..?? nuff said (ducks)
