Coulter Dropped by 'Augusta Chronicle' Over 'Stridency'

NEW YORK The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle has become the second newspaper to drop Ann Coulter's column this month.

Coulter, of Universal Press Syndicate, is being replaced by another conservative columnist -- Michelle Malkin of Creators Syndicate.

...

It read: "We didn't think twice about adding nationally syndicated columnist Ann Coulter to our editorial page lineup. We had to think long and hard about whether to keep her there.

"In the end, we've reluctantly decided Ms. Coulter's incisive writing, laser-like perceptiveness, quick wit and devastating logic have been overshadowed, and that she has lost her effectiveness as a conservative standard-bearer.

"As of today, we're opting to go with Michelle Malkin, one of the most articulate and exciting young conservative voices out there today.

4. Quick wit?
If by "quick wit" they mean someone who can promptly spew forth an invective-laden, ad hominem based put down - then yeah, she's your go-to gal.

7. devastating to whom?
her conservative nit wit base? Liberals get upset at the STUPIDITY and BIGOTRY of her statements, but logic???

Just as soon as she has some she can start trying to go around devastatin'.

And Malkin? First there were Jews for Jesus. Then there were Log Cabin Republicans. Then there was Malkin.

8. Katherine Harris, Ann Coulter
it's amazing to see how the "right wing-nuts" discard their old whores when they've passed their usefulness.

Won't be long until Annie's standing there with her "hooch" flopping to her knees singing, "Memories".

9. Malkin is a first class jerk too, but she is not as bad as Ann!
Every time I see Michele's name I think of the time she was on Hardball and Chris absolutely disected her! Nobody ever does that to Ann!

I'm glad this is the second paper to cancel her, and I hope many more follow!!!!

20. Nice thank you to someone who
just had a best selling book.. that within weeks was in the bargain bin for less than a cup of cheap coffee.. MULCH as Al Franken calls them, these books are bought up by Scaife or some other rich asshole, wallpaper the Bookstore ala Corporate Rules, so they can make a BillBoard by the windows of the store, then PLOW THEM UNDER for the worms..

I'd like to start a campaign to have her DROPPED completely from Creator's Syndicate, who used to be somewhat cool with writers, but has slipped over to the other side drsstically in the last five years or so.. they used to have more from both angle, now, scumbags..

Wonder if enough people made a stink if they'd drop ANNTHRAX like a stone.. don't have time to properly pursue it now, maybe soon..
