Has Ann Coulter Hit Her Tipping Point?
Ann Coulter's Latest Controversy May Have News Shows Rethinking About Booking Her
By DAVID BAUDER, The Associated Press
NEW YORK - Ann Coulter has been a reliable name for years among people who plan television news shows an attractive, articulate blonde conservative who's made a living lobbing verbal bombs.
Following her use of a gay slur about Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards this month during remarks to the Conservative Political Action Conference, some on TV are wondering whether her shelf life is expiring.
Many were angered by her use of the "f-word". Coulter later said she considered it a "schoolyard taunt." She said it was a joke about "Grey's Anatomy" actor Isaiah Washington saying he would seek counseling after using the word to refer to a fellow actor.
At least four daily newspapers have dropped Coulter as a columnist, citing her comment about Edwards.

I can't say I am sad about this.
You reap what you sow. It's nice to see that her type of behavior will not be condoned or tolerated. Maybe she'll learn from this and seek some humility and in turn keep her big trap shut.
Is it too early to sing DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD?

I saw her this weekend saying "I can't understand this-- no one made a fuss when I called Al Gore a "Total Fag."
6 out of 100 papers. although more are being targeted by human rights campaign. might be a teensy bit early, diva.
But I've been warming up for months...
Mi Mi Mi MIIIIIIII!
clearly she has no idea of the power of the letters g-o-t.

I would still prefer that she be allowed to spew away - in fact, I'd encourage it. The more outrageous, the better - and her vitriol should be attached to ALL conservatives, just like many on the right like to claim that Michael Moore speaks for all Liberals.
The thing is -- the newspapers that carry her columns aren't exactly Tier 1 markets. I mean -- New Braunfels, Texas? I like Schlitterbaun and river rafting as much as anybody, but I don't read the paper when I'm there.
I'd imagine the number of people who rely on newspapers to read her column is a fraction of those who seek her out online or on television. I'd be willing to bet if all 100 papers dropped her, we'd still be seeing her thanks to Joseph Farah and Sean Hannity and her never-ending line of error-ridden books.
Is this like cow tipping?
Tazber - my thought exactly! If it means the point at which she can be pushed off a cliff, I'm SOOO ready. I have to take extra blood pressure medicine every time I inadvertently catch this woman performing on TV. Anything for a buck - there is a name for a woman like her.

Okay, is there any possible way we can get a Stereotypically 1950s-like Queenly Misogyny Filter installed on this site, pronto?
ETA Actually no, I take that back. Like DG feels about Ann herself, I guess it's better to let TD write that kind of crap to show his true colors. That's an example of the kind of queen I never wanted to be and have done my best to avoid becoming.
"if it means the point at which she can be pushed off a cliff, i'm sooo ready."
and the death threat filter. remind me again why is it wrong to wish the dixie chicks dead but it's ok to publicly wish to partake in ann's murder?
Yea!
Namo's going after me.....
Now I can be bored even more!
"That's an example of the kind of queen I never wanted to be and have done my best to avoid becoming."
What kind of queen HAVE you become?
All of this is actually great news for Ann: The Diva of the Right.

Papa, at least that wish was some sort of play on the concept of tipping point.
As opposed to TheaterDiva's Michael Richards moment.

If you actually think there's nothing wrong with what you wrote, then you're actually a worse person than I previously thought. As to what kind of queen I became, well, the kind who would never want to be associated with your brand of misogyny, for one.
CAT FIGHT...
OUCH
SNAP
this thread just got very boring.
Much like HD, you didn't answer my question,
"What kind of queen HAVE you become?"
"...attractive, articulate blonde"
I thought this article was about Ann Coulter!
