Another MSNBC Contributor Knocks Tim Russert

Tuesday January 29th, 2008 8:57 PM by BHDC Staff
Filed under: MSNBC, Ana Marie Cox, Tim Russert, TIME, Joe Scarborough, Ezra Klein

Remember when the young Hardball political pundit Ezra Klein made lewd comments about Tim Russert’s sex life just a few short days ago? And then promptly (and embarrassingly) shut down his Twitter Web page that featured those sharp words? Well, tonight TIME’s Ana Marie Cox, a frequent contributor to NBC shows featuring Joe Scarborough, posted this statement on her Twitter page regarding Russert:

Knowing Cox, she won’t be deleting anything, but one does have to wonder: if these people hate NBC so much, why do they attempt to desperately sell themselves on the company’s stations all too often?

Interesting sentiments coming from my girl Cox. I heard she once had an affair with a frequent Hardball guest.

No one said she doesn’t have a right to free speech, but MSNBC certainly has the right to book whatever guests they’d like.

[…] Could this action be in to response to her recent criticism of Tim Russert and Chris Matthews, stars of the NBC TV networks to which she sometimes contributes, on her personal twitter blog? And did TIME really pull her off the campaign trail? ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… var staf_confirmtext = ‘Success!’ #stafBlock { position: absolute !important; z-index: 100000; display: none; width: 200px; } #stafForm { background-color: #ffffff; border: 1px solid #c6c6c6; padding: 5px; margin:0; } #stafForm h2 { margin: 0; } #stafForm input, #stafForm label, #stafForm h2 { font-family: ‘Lucida Grande’, Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif; font-size: 1em; color: #222222; } #stafForm input { width: 90px; height: 15px; margin-top: 5px; border: 1px solid #ccc; } #stafForm label { float: left; display: block; width: 90px; line-height: 16px; } #stafClose { float: right; margin-right: 5px; } x […]
