...what ?
Whats wrong with Islamists ?
Fox news - the single cause for my increased dental bills.
Best quote from this video.
If I was getting interviewed by her and she did that crap to me, then after the interview ended changed her tone to sound chummy again, I'd walk straight the hell out of there. Why do these guests stand for this crap?
I'm not terribly crazy about Hitch, either.
They both still think that playing war games with the lives of the Iraqi people is a good idea.
Wish I could dump the both of them in downtown Baghdad and give them a taste of the "freedom" they're so willing to spread.
Maddow is twice the interviewer and five times the human being that Ingraham could ever hope to be.
Damn.
Hard for me to say it, but I'd love to have her as a boss if we were fighting the same fight. Otherwise I'd stay clear away.

Actually, he's been to Iraq and specifically Baghdad(both before and after the war). In fact, it was visiting the Kurds after the first Gulf war that changed his mind to support the war from then on. It's the fact that he interviewed a terrorist in Baghdad from a government office while Saddam was still in power that leaves him insistent that Saddam supported terrorism. Hitchens has spent more time in Iraq and Afghanistan, and Iran and North Korea too boot, than most journalists any major news organization puts up, and it's a shame so many dismiss him simply because they disagree with his conclusions.
hitchens gives atheists a bad name
Hitchens gives humanity a bad name.
I can recommend Hitchens article in slate, however, in which he gives actual answers to the questions she asked and answered herself.

I actually i think this was a great interview (for Faux News), you take in intelligent guy who seemed to know what he was talking about and call him out on it in an attempt to destroy his credibility. I am not blind with hatred for Fox News (yet) to see that this interview was probably extremely effective to viewers because he came off stammering, back tracking, and weak, everything Fox News wanted. He didnt really answer any question fully or effectively (thanks to her constant interruptions) but he also didnt squash her tactics to make him look bad, like a fool he walked right into them which started when he agreed to go on Fox News of all things. So yes for them it was a great interview.
From watching Hitchens, I'm not sure he really cares what typical Fox viewers think. He seems pretty content to ignore those too stupid to catch his lines like 'You must have me on more often and tell me what you think.' The refreshing thing for me with Hitchens is he doesn't seem to care the smallest bit what anyone else thinks about his position.
So yes for them it was a great interview.
That's probably why it was complete shit to me. Fox behaved shamefully moronic, even for Fox.
I'm totally down with asking Hitchens tough questions, I wouldnt have minded if they were tougher still, but there really is no point having a monologue in front of him, or anyone else for that matter. If they don't want his opinion anyway, don't invite him.
fuck you fox
