NBC CUTS COULTER; KEEPS PEREZ Mon Jan 05 2009 17:50:57 ET
The nation's top selling conservative author has been banned from appearing on NBC, insiders tell the DRUDGE REPORT.
Banned for life!
"We are just not going to have her on any more, it's over," a top network source explains.
NBC's TODAY show abruptly cut Ann Coulter from its planned Tuesday broadcast, claiming the schedule was overbooked.
But executives at NBC TODAY replaced Coulter with showbiz reporter Perez Hilton, who recently offered $1,000 to anyone who would throw a pie at Ann Coulter. Hilton is also launching a new book this week, RED CARPET SUICIDE.
Coulter was set to unveil her new book, GUILTY.
But one network insider claims it was the book's theme -- a brutal examination of liberal bias in the new era -- that got executives to dis-invite the controversialist.
"We are just not interested in anyone so highly critical of President-elect Obama, right now," a TODAY insider reveals. "It's such a downer. It's just not the time, and it's not what our audience wants, either."
For the book, Coulter reportedly received the most-lucrative advance ever paid to a conservative author.
The TODAY show eagerly invited the author months ago, for her first network interview on GUILTY.
The exclusive was to air during the show's 7 AM hour. The cut came Monday afternoon.
Coulter was also to appear on the TODAY's fourth hour. A host even teased the segment saying the 'conservative pit bull and bestselling author' would be a guest.
NBC's cable outlet, MSNBC, will also become a Coulter-free zone, insiders explain. Morning host Joe Scarborough is said to be concerned with the new ban. "He's working to overrule it," tips a source.

But they kept Perez Hilton? Fine! I'm going to buy her book tomorrow. Not that I didn't know that NBC was biased, but when you consider all the idiots they let on their Network, but because SHE is a conservative, they refuse to air her? It kinda reminds me of when Oprah didn't want Palin on her show before the election. I haven't watched Oprah in years, but I hope Palin never goes on her show. |

They didn't feel like it was not proper to so unashamedly find something wrong with everything the man has done during his two terms??? What about freedom of the press? Or does that only apply to their own ideas and opinions?? Is this what it going to be like during the next 4 years?? |

That pretty well sums up NBC's concept of "fair and balanced," doesn't it? |

I never found getting mad to be nearly as satisfying as getting even. |

I can not bring myself to watch MSNBC the Obama network and NBC is almost as bad. Had she written a book on George Bush bashing him ...it would have been on 24... 7! |

What I would like to know is where the "open-mindedness" of the liberal lifestyle fits in here?? I am very seriously thinking of writing to NBC and ask them all of these questions just to see what kind of reply I get. If we don't start right now standing up for our beliefs and rights, they are quickly going to disappear. It doesn't take an army of people to accomplish anything either. It only took one person speaking out to have prayer removed from our school systems. Just think what we could do if we all stood up for what we believe. I have not watched mainstream news in years. Just can't bring myself to try and stomach their programs. |

Speaking of Ann, I just saw her on CBS' The Early Show being interviewed by Harry Smith. Did anyone see the show? |
