Republican hatemonger Ann Coulter has continued her attack on the media,
including making a recent statement where she reaffirmed her wish that
Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh had bombed The New York Times'
building.
There seems to be no low to which Coulter won't sink in her pursuit of
airtime. She recently apparently endorsed the murder of Rep. John P. Murtha
(D-PA) and suggested that Democratic support of a recent Supreme Court
decision is "siding with Al Qaeda." Coulter's musings about violence against
her perceived enemies are nothing new; she once suggested that former
President Clinton be assassinated.
You might think that the media would distance themselves from such advocacy
of political murder. But you'd be wrong: Coulter continues to be invited on
a wide range of television programs, including on MSNBC and NBC.
Is there nothing she could say they would find inappropriate? Please contact
MSNBC TV and NBC News and ask them what she would have to say for them to
refuse her future airtime. Are they willing to commit to not hosting her
again?
Coulter isn't the only conservative whose hate speech the have networks
repeatedly given airtime. Melanie Morgan, a frequent MSNBC guest, has
accused The New York Times of "treason" for recent reporting and suggested
that its executive editor deserved "the gas chamber."
What would it take for MSNBC TV and NBC News to say, "No more"?
