Ever-useless Michelle Malkin evidently took time out from rubbing Rupert Murdoch's ancient balls to make yet another attribution error:
An alert reader wrote in just a little while ago to let us know about something he'd spotted on Fox News Wednesday afternoon. During a segment discussing conservative attacks against Michelle Obama, the wife of presumptive Democratic nominee Barack Obama, the network described the former as "Obama's baby mama."
I checked, and sure enough, as you can see...our e-mailer was right. In fact, that description was displayed on screen several times during the segment, which featured anchor Megyn Kelly and conservative blogger Michelle Malkin, an FNC contributor.
You may (have) notice(d) that at one point, Malkin says, "By the way, it's not just Republicans who are criticizing some of her comments, but also statements have been made in the left-leaning blog Salon about her comments." I've searched the site, and I can't find anything like what Malkin is talking about. I've e-mailed Malkin asking for clarification -- if and when she responds, I'll update this post.
Update: Malkin responded to my e-mail; she says she misspoke and that she meant to refer to Slate, not Salon.
Much like her fellow fringe dissemblers--William Kristol comes immediately to mind--Malkin's bile is rarely fact-checked, and claims that she "misspoke"--like Kristol's and myriad others--are made only after the bullshit stinks more than their writing.
Michelle Malkin was a failed newspaper grunt in Seattle and L.A. before she carted her sorry ass east to lie on her blog, roll her eyes on FOX News , get canned by Bill O'Reilly (!), fight with Geraldo (!!), and yet continue as a "commentator" on that sham fake news channel.
Maybe rubbing Rupert's balls really does break the glass ceiling at FOX News.
Hell, the past-their-expiration-date porno chicks he employs as FOX anchors and reporters seem proof enough of that.

Amazing how people can't do something as simple as shut down the FOX revenue stream that keeps this crap on the air. Is it too f'ing much to expect people vote with thier remote?
Hate FOX? Then walk the talk. Boycott FOX...

I don't watch 'em, either. I find my FOX News nonsense on the web! But those f***** have me on October for the World Series. I have to cave for October baseball.
