I bookmarked the link :)

With your association with FCC, it wouldn't be bad to get you on there if the story was right. We've had some of the lawyers with FCC on.

You did a great job, Bob!

That blonde sounded like she belongs on CNN though. Good job with her suggestion for an IQ test for gun ownership!

...... and another blonde bimbo.

Actually, she's a really nice person, not a bimbo. Sometimes the anchors have to ask questions to lead the conversation.

Hey nothing wrong with being blonde! :(

Hey Bob:
Any chance she was a shill to keep things moving along, while in reality she's a pistol packin' Momma?

^^^^This. For those that don't know, I work at Newsmax. I hired her. I know her and this is exactly what she was doing.

I rarely get offended on these boards, but calling someone I personally know and respect a bimbo because she was playing devil's advocate to try to cover both sides of a story really gets under my skin.

The truth of this is the executive producer of the show has known Bob for almost 20 years. She is a close friend of his. Almost all our anchors are gun people. JD is from Arizona where he regularly open carries. Another anchor not on this clip was trained by Bob. We have yet another anchor who has talked to Bob about taking the concealed carry class with his girlfriend.

But to be truly fair you have to ask tough questions. That's what she was doing, not being a liberal bimbo. Sorry, rant over.

My apologies for lighting this fire.

The way she asked those questions was what got my attention.

For example, she said (not a direct quote, but close), "Do we need an IQ test for someone to buy a gun?"

I would have expected a pro-gun reporter to say, "What about the suggestion that we need an IQ test to buy a gun?"

See the difference? One sounds like the individual asking the question, while the other does not.

Anyway, I did not intend to cast aspersions on anyone and I apologize for that.
