Your OP is a jumbled mess...where is the link?
 
I would not say he lost his cool? Malkin did on the other hand look well informed and took him down a notch, but loses cool? No.

A more fitting title had this been a real news story would have been another media Spokesman for Obama, Matt Lauer exposed.
 
Not he did not lose his cool at all..she on the other hand sounded like the same ranting loon spewing broad generalizations about things she only wishes could be true....She is a wacko....
 
I simply thought that Lauer asked her the questions that opened the door of oppertunity for her to promote her book. I didn't sense the two of them "getting into it," so to speak, at all.

True, she's a whacko. And Lauer allower her to play her role as such. I did catch the "I'm dying to bust out laughing at this kook" smirk that Lauer had at the end of the interview.

But nobody "owned" anybody. It wasn't even that kind of an interview. I think Lauer knew he would score more points just letting her run her mouth. Which, in my opinion, he did.

Afterwards, they both jump into their limos, drive to the bank, and laugh at all of us for even taking the time to entertain their media lunacy and at the sponsors who pay for it.

Hell, they might have gotten kinky in the janitor's closet before the show. It's all a big dog and pony show. They are all birds of a feather.
 
Anytime an interviewer talks over a guest as she is answering a question, it is 'losing cool'. Period.

Had they been two guests on another show with opposing viewpoints, then it interrupting, while rude, would be a bit more understandable.

He interrupted several times because he didn't LIKE what she was saying.

Then, after his meek and meager squeeks of protest, she used him.

You need to watch Bill O'Reilly if you want to see somebody lose it.

:rofl

Yeah, he does it too. All the time.

But at least he is presented as an 'opinion' guy.

Isn't Lauer a kind of faux-legit 'news' guy? This show is for the guest to present their shtick, not to engage in debate, right?

Though it would be a feast to watch Lauer engage anyone in debate, let alone the formidable Malkin.
 
Where did she loose her cool? She sounded like a stupid b-tch at the beginning, and did so at the end too.
 
:rofl

At no point in this interview did Lauer lose his cool. Not even once. And Malkin did use him. She pushed her typical over the top, exaggerated political perspective.

Your thread title and your OP are extremely misleading.

What I love about the video is her very long speech about Michelle Obama and Lauer not even commenting on it. It looks like he ran out of time, but it also looks like he's thinking, "She's nuts. Stop the interview here." She ranted like a maniac and then Matt responded with nothing. It was perfect! When someone says something so ridiculous to me, I don't respond because craziness doesn't warrant a response. That's how I see this interview.

What I revel in is the idea that she has to be pissed off on a daily basis with the current administration. And I LOVE IT! :rofl :rofl
 
Yeah, she is an idiot... That is why she didn't include more than 60 pages of footnotes and references in her book.


We know, we know...you don't LIKE it. Find a way to call her a racist and you will have completed the circle of liberal. THAT will get you a Gold Star from the party of Grand Cyclops, murderers, shakedown-artists, race-baiters, and drooling boy-hungry pimp/madam/pedophiles!

LOL Sometimes calling someone an idiot isn't about their level of intelligence. Michelle Malkin is an incredibly angry person. She spews hatred toward anything that is liberal. For me, I could never make a living spewing hate towards others, but I have a conscience, and I have better things to do with my time.
 
I love how some people don't even try to honestly represent what happened in that interview.

Never let reality get in the way of partisanship. :mrgreen:

What hatred is she spewing? She is spewing political opinion about someone. When did that become hate speech? :roll:

I did find Malkin's commentary completely caustic. Much of it is purely her partisan opinion and nothing more. I don't think it's hate speech, I just think it's politics as usual in the "media."
 
I thought Lauer's jumping up and down was appropriate. He probably shouldn't have slapped her and then drug her around by her hair. YMMV.

:2razz:

Well he did go completely over the top when he baked her a cake with a brick in it and then hit her in the right ear with it...ON LIVE T.V.!!!!

That was just over the line.

Look at the expression on her face. To me, it exuded pure hatred towards Obama and Michelle. I think there are ways to express disagreement and still look calm and collected. Look at her eyes and mouth---ewwwwwwwwww.
