Palin Filmmaker Calls Maddow a "Dyke"
On her Sirius XM radio show Judith Regan got into a heated discussion yesterday with wingnut commentator and filmmaker John Ziegler, who interviewed Sarah Palin for his hilariously-titled film "Media Malpractice: How Obama Was Elected and Palin was Targeted." He's been making the rounds from the "Today" show to CNN in recent days with his film, which includes lots of new idiotic sound bites from Palin (which we've played in recent days on the show).

I will be playing clips on my show today from Regan's interview in which the bilious Ziegler says that MSNBC has a "dyke" host, referring of course to Rachel Maddow, and calls Regan the "biggest whore on the face of the planet." Regan calls him on his misogyny but this nasty character isn't fazed in the slightest. A radio talk show host who was fired from seven jobs, Ziegler also defends Palin throughout the interview, including her "Russia" remarks. I'll play the clips in the third hour (4 ET) of the show today. Below a transcript of the offensive remark about Maddow, when Regan says there is a lack of women in the media:

Judith Regan: How about the Fox New Channel, the most misogynistic news organization...?

John Ziegler: There's plenty of women on Fox...MSNBC has one who's a dyke.

3. When I saw that dick on MSNBC on monday..........
I thought Rachael should have him on her show because she'd tear him apart. I'd love to see it even more now.

10. Well, all righty, then, Mr. Smartypants Ziegler.
I wasn't going to post this but you've forced my hand. The second half of the video clip especially. Oh . My . God.

22. What a complete jack-off.
That poor woman.

I was really wishing she'd held onto her club for the second half of the date so that she could've hit a few MORE balls.

11. I went to a conference several years ago
A lesbian minister was hosting one of the sessions, and talked about getting some tools out of the back of her blue pick-up, parked out front of her church. (As an aside, she mentioned that she had indeed finally gotten that blue pick-up, her favorite toy as a little girl, and how that should have told everyone something even back then.) As she was rummaging around, a car sped by, full of young men, college age or thereabouts. One of them yelled, "Dyke!" She said she turned to look as they continued down the street, and the only think she could think to say was, "Duh!"

lifts the veil and exposes their true hate filled little selves.

21. I can only hope that more Palin defenders like Ziegler continue to speak out in public like this...
With fans like Ziegler and Joe the Dumber, she will be gone even sooner.

And also, you betcha.

Too.

23. Totally OT: That pic in your sig line is priceless.....I think it deserves an OP! AND
I am disgusted by what I read in your post.

This Zeigler guy looks like a real piece of work....what a pig.

But to look on the bright side of this: Sarah Palin is now one of his hate-mongering collaborators and we must NEVER let her forget it!
