What happened to Ashleigh Banfield?

Edited on Sun Mar-06-05 10:37 PM by MadisonProgressive
Remember that rising MSNBC news 'star' that was all the talk at the start of the war? I watched "WMD - Weapons of Mass Deception" with my brother (maybe the best such documentary I've seen, by Danny Schechter - watch the trailer at http://www.wmdthefilm.com/mambo/index.php )

and there was a clip of her talking at a conference where she criticized the media coverage of the run-up to the war. The caption stated that she was 'dropped' by MSNBC. Has she ever been heard from again? No other network picked her up? Is this one of the political hits that convinced reporters to keep their mouths shut for fear of losing their careers?

Anyone have any info on her?

On Edit: Corrected spelling of her name - thanks tx_dem41 !
