You know exactly why they are stirring up shit. You know there is no point in attempting to try to understand their irrationality. What is the necessity of giving them the time of day?

thats just what i was thinking while watching that. the answer is ratings. theres no reason to put this woman on the air, it just makes a good story for them to show.

i dont really understand why some of you are getting so much excitement out of it. ive heard worse things said by people on that show. i dont get why this one is any different than the other nutbags we see all the time on television. im kinda disappointed i was conned into watching 5 minutes of fox news

lol she owned them

they are incredidbly sick people though... i've seen their website a couple months ago actually, and its amazing how much definition they bring to trailor trash.

My thoughts exactly. They actually sounded more ignorant than she did in the interview. Even though I still think her views are crazy, they should have conducted themselves better.

I'd almost rather listen to the Phelps idiots than Hannity.

At least then I can have a good laugh as opposed to wanting a shower.

The reason isn't soley ratings. While that does help, one of the other major reasons is that it makes the less hateful religious conservatives seem that much more normal. These people can go so far to the extreme that it makes those that just minorly condemn gays and non-extremists religious conservaties seem that much more normal.

In politics, you're a moderate if there's some nutjob way past your beliefs. Fox News and their conservative viewpoint LOVE interviews and stories like this, because it makes them seem that much more normal, justifying their biased viewpoints to those in the center that can be swayed. In reality, we all know that those are the votes that matter in elections, don't we?

Good post Groundhog Boy, that didn't occur to me at first. I think your hypostheis is correct. News networks and print media are selective about what they cover or don't cover for a reason.
