Video: Ziegler, Uyger debate about Sarah Palin
Hot Air ^ | Dec 11, 2009 | Ed Morrissey

Posted on 12/12/2009 11:10:04 PM PST by Joy Angela

It’s a 26-minute debate that John Ziegler describes to me as “an educated and civil discussion” with Young Turks host Cenk Uyger, and he’s right. Cenk lets John talk and addresses his points openly, and avoids the kind of shout-downs that usually happens at MS-NBC (and always happen there with John). In fact, both Cenk and John have a spirited conversation full of diametrically-opposed opinions and irreconcilable points of view, but the tone remains professional and friendly throughout. Kudos to both for a great discussion, but it raises a question: if Cenk can exhibit this much professionalism with such a political opposite on his Internet show, why can’t MS-NBC hire actual professionals to perform to the same level for a living?

((See site for Video of Interview))

Did either have their minds changed at the end of 26 minutes? No, but both had a full airing of their points of view. It’s also interesting for its demonstration of the Rashomon effect, where two people look at the same events have two completely different interpretations of them. On many levels, this is fascinating.

Don’t forget to see John’s Media Malpractice documentary to get the background on John’s argument.

Wow! This interview made my toes curl! Clearly, Sarah Palin is being targeted by the media with the goal of demeaning her.

This video is worth seeing, if only to make supporters wish her the strength to stand up to this attack!\

Boy, is the LEFT afraid of her!!

This Tug-of-War between a Palin-Destroyer and a Palin-Supporter is MADDENING to watch!

IN the clips, I can hear Sarah Palin fighting the urge to react to the insulting tones in the Interviewer’s Voices,
and I almost exact her to stand up - slap ‘em - and say
KNOCK THAT OFF!

I am impressed, though, how John Ziegler just stays in there,
like a bull dog, with that smile on his face!!

Smile in the face of the enemy.

Good Job!!! :)

This interview by Zeigler was not a good defense of Palin. You can start with the number of times he uses the word “stupid”.

If you’re goal is to change this perception the MSM either has or is trying to create in voters minds, you don’t keep using it in the same sentence as “Sarah Palin”, it only reinforces it.
