WOW, The Smoking Gun That Got Right Nut Media Pissy ALL DAY.

[Grassy Knoll]

Limbaugh bitched about it
Fox news Bitched about it
Hannity , he's been bitching for 4 years anyway.

[lob1]

1. Sounds to me like they were trying to get a straight answer

from a guy that refuses to give one. Malkin is really full of hate. Look at the video, she's seething.

[teknomanzer]

34. I'll bet she smells like sour milk...

[lob1]

35. Eeewwwww. Great description!

[Left Coast2020]

36. Something happened to her after her parents came here.

Musta been really bad.

[Lint Head]

2. OMG! Reporters planned ahead. I say, It's about fucking time!

We the People need hard journalism for the Freedom of the Press that protects the public from lecherous politicians.

[rsweets]

3. Thank you for watching Fox News, so i don't have to

[Spitfire of ATJ]

4. LOL!!! "The story of the day was Obama's dereliction of duty"???

Maybe on FOX "News" it was.

[avebury]

5. Gee - could it have been because the reporters

were dealing with a slippery politician in order to try to get a straight answer to a question.

Michelle Malkin has an attitude problem.

[lumpy]

6. Reporters have too much trouble getting a straight answer out of Romney, obviously.

Why else would they being doing such a 'foul' thing. Fox heads are certainly glimming on to any subject to discredit their opposition. Fox so-called reporters, news casters look more and more like unprofessional sad sacks.

[TrollBuster9090]

7. Would you like some cheese to go with that whine?

Get used to it, right wing crackpots. If you're shocked by the contrast, it's not because the media has a left wing bias and deliberately goes after right wing candidates. It's because journalists have been intimidated by the right wing noise machine for the last 30 years, and have gone soft ball on right wing politicians. Ask Bill Clinton about what it's like to get questions from reporters.

[Canuckistanian]

24. Better yet, ask Al Gore

That was a media lynch mob that was CONSTANTLY feeding off itself and jumping on ANY crackpot theory to discredit Gore.

No, the media isn't responsible for Mitt's gigantic gaffes. He'd doing it all by his lonesome. Reporters are just trying to keep up with all the lies.

[BlueStreak]

8. And coordination is bad, why?

Campaigns move at a fast pace. The reporters will get a very brief time with the candidate. If one reporter gets known as one who suck up all the time with softballs, that is bad for everybody.

If Romney gave straight answers, then there would be no reason to coordinate in this fashion. This is a real indictment of Romney that reporters have to plan a whole strategy to get a straight answer out of him.

This also provides even more insight into that photo that was snapped as Romney walked off the stage. Romney had the "Nailed it" smirk on his face, and every reporter seemed to be thinking "He just said what?" Now we know they had engaged in a serious discussion before Romney entered the room trying to anticipate what any reasonable candidate might say and how they would follow-up. But then Romney came out with complete garbage, leaving them all stunned. I bet they didn't have a strategy for that.

[wtmusic]

15. Exactly. They were trying to catch a "slippery politician". nt

[JDPriestly]

9. This kind of coordination cuts both ways.

It doesn't give one side or the other an advantage. It just makes sure a question that reporters agree needs to be asked gets asked.

[WhoIsNumberNone]

10. Michelle Malkin is an angry, angry person

and she's always got that sour puss on. As if when her mother told her someday her face would freeze like that....

[Voice for Peace]

11. I can't listen to her, wtf is she talking about that's making her so ugly?

[SoapBox]

12. She makes me vomit...

WHAT the fuck is with all that HATE, HATE, HATE?!?

[Katashi_itto]

20. She let her dark side consume her years ago...the circle is complete...

[Esra Star]

13. when you are this far right, the rest of the world is

by definition left. I guess this means, to them, the msm looks left.
Genghis Khan and Atilla the Hun would also appear to be commie pinkoes.

[abolugi]

14. she is an ugly,ugly woman...

And I DON'T mean her looks!!

[alp227]

18. I'd say EVIL woman as the song goes

[Jack Rabbit]

16. It looks like the RR campaign is really desperate

FoxNews -- just to get this straight -- is part of the Romney campaign. What else should we call the propaganda arm of the far right?

Hardly a stray fact was allowed into that segment. Obama was derelict in duty? Really? How? The press corps was "conspiring" to nail Romney with "gotcha" questions. "Didn't you jump the gun?" is not a gotcha question when the fact show that Mr. Romney released a statement full of factual errors and characterized the communique from the Cairo embassy as being in response to rioting that had not yet taken place. It should surprise anyone that journalists "collaborate" with the asking of questions to be given to a subject determined not to answer them.

As conspiracy theories go, Ms. Malkin's offering ranks up there with Limbaugh's assertion that Al Qaida "turned over" Osama to make the president look good.

The best thing to do with this is ignore it. The only people who are going to believe this nonsense are the ones who watch Fox 24/7, and they're hopelessly misinformed anyway because the watch FoxNews 27/7, except when they're listening to Rush Limbaugh. The right wing media has been preaching to the choir for years. Every time Mitt opens his mouth, every time a Republican congressman pretends he's a doctor and tell us about gynecology, every time Ms. Malkin breathes fire and tells us Obama is a terrorist sympathizer or Kerry faked his wounds in Vietnam, that choir just get smaller.

Hopefully, by election night, it will have disappeared.

[svip]

17. What's the big deal?

It's the one question everyone wanted answered from Romney. When Romney interjected himself, made this statement, and then held a mini-PC, what did they expect?

[Thornleylv]

19. Murdock

Rupert Murdock has never given questions to his reporters to ask. He doesn't run a sausage factory! WOW. They say this stuff because that's how they operate.

[marble falls]

21. 1:49 was all I could take.

[Cha]

37. I'm not watching any of it and

would greatly appreciate the cliff notes! I'm getting some just from reading the posts..Let's see..the rwgopropaganda machine is pissy cause the m$m is relating shit that mitt stepped in..all by himself. That it?

And, I bet she smells way worse than sour milk..more like limburger cheeze and Whine.

[marble falls]

39. Almost anything she utters is hatespeech.

[The Wizard]

22. Michelle needs counseling

and increased medication. That constant rage is unhealthy. Perhaps a little curare is in order.

[SmittynMo]

23. Are you kidding me?

This is absurd. Let me see here. I guess you could compare it to doing an interview for a job. You only have one shot to sell yourself, right? Isn't is customary to be prepared before the interview? Research the company, and person you are interviewing with? (linkedin is a great tool). I personally have a one sheet questionnaire I take with me to all my interviews. As the interview is winding down, the interviewer normally asks, Do you have any questions? I review my sheet quickly and ask questions about items that were not discussed during the interview. I think it's called being prepared, and it shows you have interest in the company. I don't see much of a difference here. You only have 1 shot at Romney. Don't you want to be prepared?

And then Gretchen lies about "I've never scribed to that before?". Then how did she get where she's at? These idiots at FAUX news disgust me to no end. Thus the reason why I never watch them. Not fair, and definitely not balanced!!! They're idiots

[DWinNJ]

25. GOTCHA GOTCHA GOTCHA

They gloss over the fact that the reporters want to make sure that he answers
“Do YOU stand by YOUR statement or do YOU regret YOUR statement?”

That should be the question they ask Rmoney after everything he says.

[mahina]

26. Poor things, they've. got sand in their panties over that?

Talk about projecting, geez!

[DearAbby]

27. ::rolls steel balls between fingers:::

You're all out to get me!

[pepperbear]

28. because they NEVER do that when it's a Democrat.

[brewens]

29. From the people that loved Jeff Gannon. A fake journalist planted to serve up softball

questions to Bush. Hannity even had him on his show.

[barkway]

30. FOX

Better than being a mouthpiece for one party & ideology like FOX does. What happened to the Fourth Estate? Malkin is as much a journalist, and FOX is news, as the Koch brothers are poor.

[barkway]

31. here it is in summary

5 pillars of FOX News Corp: Hysteria. Denial of reality. Thought control. Name calling. Projection of guilt.

[mahina]

32. Exactly.

[socialindependocrat]

33. When you're losing you either get pissed or you cry... n/t

[baldguy]

38. So, they're complaining that reporters are DOING THEIR JOBS?

Do they complain when reporters do the same thing to Obama?
