Wow, she actually sounds so insincere it hurts.

I want to learn how to sound like that. The possibilities are endless.

Now that she's *cough*cough*not*cough* apologized, let's go off on her for calling it a 'colorful season' in respect to Barack Obama.

This is fox's answer to a screw up they do not want to be associated with. They are salvaging her career before our very eyes. Kindness or self preservation ? You decide!

Its not that shes not allowed to say it, its that her appology comes off as sarcasm.

Sarcasm in apologies rewards ya a "dire in a fire, bitch".

wow what a nice planet it would be if everyone thought like that.

it is especially nice to see the "die in a fire" comment at the top of every page. i would prefer "welcome to the community" but "die in a fire, bitch" is ok i guess. nothing like a bit of violent misogyny to decorate the place.

I suppose if she could wipe that smirk off her face it might help with the sincerity quotient.

I read the comments before I viewed the video and I thought Blankie might have been a little over the top. Having seen the video however I have to say I hope the fire isn't too hot, she needs a sloooow roasting.

I agree. I don't necessarily believe that "die in a fire, bitch" is such a wrong thing to say because I think you have the right to voice your opinion, but it is slightly hypocritical when given the current context.

But carry on, your disdain is understood and reasonable.

There is a big difference between a Journalist broadcasting the suggestions of assassinating a presidential candidate to tens of millions of idiotic viewers....and an internet commentator using the term "die in a fire"

big difference

Fuck it, let them say whatever they want on Fox News. It exposes them for exactly what they are, small minded bigots.

It's about time everyone started speaking their mind, let's see exactly what type of people we're dealing with on all sides.

Fedquip yes, there is a big difference, in size of audience and in impact on society. But didn't your mummy say "two wrongs don't make a right"?

Both her "assassination" comment and the "fire" comment are abhorrent. "die in a fire" is a horrible thing to wish even on your worst enemy, and feeling like that will eat you up inside rather than defeat your enemy. "bitch" is a bit of a giveaway that here we have an example of joyous hatred and attempted superiority, rather than a considered opinion expressed in a free society. You see this woman's tortured face as she tries to cover her own awareness of her vileness and hypocrisy? Then you upvote "die in a fire, bitch". Riiiiight. She was naughty first!!! Waaaa! She was naughty first! Not us!!!!

i understand the extremity of feeling against this woman/person/robot/droid
But still, "die in a fire, bitch" would only be funny if it was a joke.

Also you could consider that her supporters will read these comments and realise what a bunch of hate filled hypocrites the so called "enlightened" and "civilised" "democratic" "liberal" "compassionate" side of the debate is. You might want to keep that side of yourselves quieter, guys.

I know what you mean Mink, it would be a wonderful world when none of us joke about each other dying in a fire. Dying in a fire is no laughing matter.

But I think there is a legitimate reason for an outcry and anger towards the lady on Fox News. I understand your points, but for me there is just something wrong about diverting the outcry away from the Fox News lady an onto our sifting friend Blankman?

if it was a joke, it could, in some contexts, be funny. but it wasn't a joke, it was just a retarded thoughtless comment.

isn't there something wrong about diverting the outcry against her by making a retarded thoughtless comment? doesn't that kinda demean your opposition?

Now ladies and gentlemen, this is why Fox, and the people who watch it adoringly are so dangerous.

MINK, while I agree you have a point about the die in a fire comment being bad (and I have upvoted your comments saying so), you're now taking your victory too far into saying that Liz here is just a poor victim of a liberal outcry.

You played it well, but you're using the real tactic I hate Fox for. Change the subject and divide the opposition by saying that criticism of bad action is just as bad as the bad act itself. Usually they say the criticism is actually worse because of the sheer un-American-ness of objecting to things (unless it's gay marriage, that's too much to tolerate).

They're both wrong, but blankfist isn't paid to diseminate information to millions of people, she is. She caught herself before she said it, thought about it, and said it anyway, with the added side-splitter of a joke where she both equates the presumptive nominee of the opposing political party to the head of a terrorist organization and talks about how tickled she'd be if both were killed.

Plus, while it's kind've ghoulish, "die in a fire" is an expression, roughly translated to "fuck you", while "knock off" is an expression roughly translated to "assassinate".

One's in bad taste, the other is borders on being a death threat.

Liz Trotta doesn't deserve to be defended, but therealblankman most certainly does.

still, doesn't make her right, doesn't mean our anger over her thoughtless words isn't justified. i'm tired of people like her getting away with such bullshit and every time we get accross shit like that, we should get angry, we should go primitive. Richard K. Morgan, or rather Quellcrist Falconer, said it so much better than i possibly could:
The personal, as everyone's so fucking fond of saying, is political. So if some idiot politician, some power player, tries to execute policies that harm you or those you care about, TAKE IT PERSONALLY. Get angry. The Machinery of Justice will not serve you here – it is slow and cold, and it is theirs, hardware and soft-. Only the little people suffer at the hands of Justice; the creatures of power slide from under it with a wink and a grin. If you want justice, you will have to claw it from them. Make it PERSONAL. Do as much damage as you can. GET YOUR MESSAGE ACROSS. That way, you stand a better chance of being taken seriously next time. Of being considered dangerous. And make no mistake about this: being taken seriously, being considered dangerous makes the difference, the ONLY difference in their eyes, between players and little people. Players they will make deals with. Little people they liquidate. And time and again they cream your liquidation, your displacement, your torture and brutal execution with the ultimate insult that it's just business, it's politics, it's the way of the world, it's a tough life and that IT'S NOTHING PERSONAL. Well, fuck them. Make it personal.

I think the comment of "Die in a fire, Bitch" is pretty ironic, especially considering the follow-up of defending the comment in the name of humor.

Take a step back and look at it - advocating killing someone in the name of humor. Knowing full well that it is a joke, the comment should be allowed to pass with a slight chuckle at an off-color comment.

Now take a step back and look at what News Spokesman Liz did... advocating killing someone in the name of humor. Knowing full that it is a joke, the comment should be allowed to pass with a slight chuckle at an off-color comment. At least her comment involved killing a terrorist, as well.

I think the only reason people got upset about this was it was a joke made at the expense of the obamassiah. Wake up and smell what you're shoveling, guys.

Even if you think her apology was sarcastic and completely insincere - at least she went back out on TV to offer it. Where are some of the other NewsWhores when they make off-color comments when it comes time to offer an apology? Paging Reverend Wright... Paging Jesse Jackson... Paging Al Sharpton.

It's okay. When Obama's president he can send her to Guantanamo Bay with Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly and Anne Coulter. Then they can all fight to the death with sharpened sticks, as nature intended.

I think we can all agree that you can die in a fire by accident.

Assassination however, is a bit harder to be happening to you by chance.

I would also like to point out, I am not a pundit. While I can understand the irony of joking about her dying in a fire, the reality is her words carry more weight.

Do you think the ignorant people shown in the West Virginia video come to their conclusions entirely on their own? Maybe Fox News, and it's speakers, have had some part to play in the delivery of such ignorance with comments such as Osama-er-Obama. I would suggest that it's for those reasons "Die in a fire, bitch" is perhaps slightly more tolerable as a joke.
