What would the current debate about the White House strategy to demonize Fox News be without Joy Behar's opinion on the subject?
Fortunatley, the comedienne and "View" co-host took the opportunity to raise this issue Thursday night with her guest conservative author Ann Coulter, and great fun was had by all including folks in the studio who couldn't hold back their laughter.
The fireworks began when Behar said, "[P]eople are p**sed off...because Fox lies a lot." Behar then marvelously accused Fox personalities Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity of playing loose with the facts just moments before she defended -- wait for it!!! -- Dan Rather.
The insanity on display led Coulter to deliciously quip about the media, "There`s more respect for Roman Polanski than for hosts on Fox News" (video embedded below the fold with partial transcript, h/t Jeff Poor, file photo):
JOY BEHAR, HOST: Ok, see people are pissed off because and he is too, because Fox lies a lot. They lie. I`ll just give you an example of Glenn Beck, for instance, one of your pals. He said that 45 percent of doctors say they`ll quit health care coverage if reform passes. Now the AMA endorsed Obama`s overhaul in July. So that`s not true of doctors...
ANN COULTER: No, the AMA doesn`t represent all doctors.
BEHAR: All right, well 45 percent of all doctors.
COULTER: That`s like taking a poll of what lawyers think and then saying the ACLU doesn`t say that and that`s a group of lawyers.
BEHAR: No but we have -- listen...
COULTER: The AMA is to lawyers what the ACLU is to lawyers.
BEHAR: Ok so which doctor are you talking to Dr. Weldy (ph) in the middle of nowhere?
COULTER: I saw that poll too -- you can`t call that a lie. You can say I don`t like this poll. And you can take my own poll. And you can`t call it a lie.
BEHAR: I think it`s a lie, he says this is the only country...
COULTER: From my discussions with doctors, I think it`s more like 90 percent. So I agree with you. That`s seems like it`s a poll is underestimating how many doctors are going to drop out of the practice of medicine.
BEHAR: No but the AMA you have to give them some credence.
COULTER: No I don`t. Doctors...
BEHAR: ...that they`re important...
COULTER: No, no it`s like the ABA no it does not represent all doctors.
BEHAR: All right...
COULTER: And in point of fact...
BEHAR: Yes.
COULTER: Because I have asked doctors what is up with this AMA? And they said it`s all the doctors who can`t practice medicine anymore. They`re all losers.
BEHAR: You know last time you were here Ann you said that most people do not like the public option. But now it`s up to 52 percent who say they want it.
COULTER: No that is a totally phony poll.
BEHAR: Well, your polls are not phony and my polls are?
COULTER: No, you`re calling it a lie.
BEHAR: No that`s a separate thing, I`m talking about -- that was separate.
COULTER: Ok, so on Fox News...
BEHAR: Try to keep up with me.
COULTER: Fox can just put on exactly what you said and say she told a lie. She said 57 percent support the public option.
BEHAR: 52 percent.
COULTER: 52 whatever.
BEHAR: That was the poll I saw. Ok...
COULTER: Ok the polls, the poll that Glenn Beck cited was a poll he saw.
BEHAR: Ok and he also said -- and how about this one. He said this is only country that has automatic citizenship. That`s not true. Brazil has it, Canada has it, Guatemala has it, a lot of countries have it. So he really needs to get his facts together.
COULTER: Ok, that`s -- assuming you are right and I did not know that. I`ve not looked at what other countries make you a citizen for simply being born here.
BEHAR: Take my word for it. Now how about this from Hannity...
COULTER: But the point is that isn`t a lie. Ok, he made a mistake.
BEHAR: Well, it`s uninformed.
COULTER: Look, if you`re going to talk that much, he has a radio show. He has a TV show. If you`re going to talk that much, people are going to make errors, they`re going trip over themselves. To be constantly jumping down...
BEHAR: But here`s what...
COULTER: I mean, they treat Fox News like they`re Stalin and every little thing has to be analyzed.
BEHAR: That`s not true.
COULTER: There`s more respect for Roman Polanski than for hosts on Fox News...
BEHAR: Listen...
COULTER: Everybody makes mistakes and by the way just yesterday Little Contessa Brewer on MSNBC was introducing Jesse Jackson and introduced him as Al Sharpton. I think that`s a little bigger than making a mistake about how many countries say you`re a citizen if you`re born here.
BEHAR: Listen, I`m not going to deal with Contessa Brewer right now.
COULTER: No, if I`m defending Glenn Beck, you are defending Contessa Brewer because she`s yours.
BEHAR: No she`s not, I don`t even know who she is.
How about Hannity? This is another that I loved. He says the "Cash for Clunkers" -- in "Cash for Clunkers" you can go to a junk yard, tow it to your house, and get $4,500. That`s not true. You have to own the car for a year.
So why is he putting that out? I don`t know why he did that?
COULTER: Ok, how about the one from my column that went up today with everyone on MSNBC citing the Willie Horton ad as an act of racism and the introduction of vicious personal politics.
BEHAR: Oh boy that was really, yes, he was pretty vicious.
COULTER: No. No, no and they keep doctoring what they`re claiming was the Bush ad to make it look like they showed a picture of Willie Horton. Anyone who knows anything about the 1988 campaign knows that George Bush never showed a picture of Willie Horton. They scrubbed and erased from that ad, in fact...
BEHAR: You`re talking about Bush...
COULTER: Right that was 1988.
BEHAR: That was part of his campaign against Dukakis, yes.
COULTER: Correct and it was a fantastic ad. The Furlough Program was unbelievable than letting convicted murders out.
BEHAR: Can`t go down memory lane that far.
COULTER: No, you`re going to start talking back that lies, that is a lie being promoted nightly on MSNBC.
The point is the lies on other stations are so much more egregious, so much more relevant. And you`re disagreeing with a poll because you have another poll that says something different, that isn`t a lie.
BEHAR: Ok, and then what about Karl Rove? This really annoyed me also. Can we get that sound on tape for Karl Rove? He`s spoken out a lot about the fight too. So listen to this. About Fox.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
KARL ROVE, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR: If you go out and call an entire news network, you know, out and basically tell the rest of the media don`t emulate them, don`t follow them, don`t be like them or we`re going to attack you too, it`s across the line.
This is an administration that`s getting very arrogant and slippery in its dealings with people and if you dare to oppose them, they`re going to come hard at you and they`re going to cut your legs off.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
BEHAR: That`s really the height of hypocrisy. This is the same guy who went after Valerie Plame out of the CIA agent. And he`s talking about vindictiveness from the left? I mean give me a break? Come on, Ann?
COULTER: No, I`m not following the parallels at all.
BEHAR: I am.
COULTER: ...at all.
BEHAR: ...it`s called vindictive.
COULTER: George Bush was interviewed...
BEHAR: They come hard at you and they`re going to cut your legs off.
COULTER: George Bush was interviewed on CNN by Larry King. He was interviewed by Brian Williams. He was interviewed on all of these stations. He never stood up and said don`t listen to Dan Rather the way the President of the United States tells Congressional Republicans don`t listen to talk radio and Fox News.
BEHAR: I think didn`t he get Dan Rather fired from CBS?
COULTER: Hang on, no Dan Rather got himself fired by running lying slanderous mocked up National Guard documents and treating it as news against the sitting president in a time of war...
BEHAR: Isn`t there a lawsuit around about that...
COULTER: And still, you never saw George Bush saying don`t listen to Dan Rather but then Obama gets his feelings hurt.
BEHAR: Well, you know...
COULTER: And that`s why I think, I tended to agree with what Rove just said there.
BEHAR: Well, of course.
COULTER: At first what he was trying to do, no I mean, about why is the White House doing this? Look, when you have Helen Thomas and all of these liberals saying, wow, this is stupid, there`s -- people are wondering why the White House is doing this.
That`s why I said, at first, I thought it was because it`s not believing; they don`t want Fox always stories being picked up in other places.
(CROSS TALK)
BEHAR: So why do you think they`re doing it? Why do you think they are doing it?
COULTER: They make the excellent point that they aren`t picking them up anyway. And Mickey Cal (ph) says, it`s to raise money from the base. I don`t think so where you got money from the base by attacking the Fox.
BEHAR: Well, it might be a distraction from the fact that progressives are on his case about the public option and Afghanistan. Just like Bush used orange alerts to distract us from his shenanigans you know what I mean.
Sadly, we do, Joy. We do.

Coulter can really handle those people. I'd get too angry. Their bull***t makes me want to smack them right in the face. It's a struggle to stay holy & Jesusly every single day for me.
But Coulter can just come back with something like that, in the moment. I need a class on that. I could write a great essay on why they're wrong later that day, but in the moment I'd just want to punch their scripted manipulative leftist lights out.

Behar -typical lib POS
October 23, 2009 - 12:22 ET by kdizzydazeBehar is merely following the lib playbook - hit your conservative guest with lie after blatant lie about something and before they can even comment on it or finish their retort, move on to the next thing. And remember, the issue is their premise is already wrong so anything they say after that is so skewed it could never even resemble the truth.
As a matter of fact, hit them with that last line (about the false premise) anytime they say something and watch the fun begin. Also, when they spew "facts" or numbers just ask them who their source is. I did that to an uncle and his son and the son stammered, called me a nazi, and walked off. Name calling - the last resort of a weak mind afraid to hear the truth.
But back to Behar, you see how she blatantly cuts off Anne as soon as Anne starts to get her point across (the AMA, Willie Horton Ad, Dan Rather lawsuit, Glenn Beck's poll, etc.). Someone in the booth is yelling into old Joyless behar's headset to cut Anne off and nail her with some other piece of liberal claptrap.
The best was the issue with the Willie Horton ad against Dukakis - Joy is blatantly going for the "but they started it mom!!" defense for the reprehensible behavior of the current administration. you noticed how Anne pointed out that Willie Horton's face NEVER appeared on the ad and that it was the dems who played that card (the only card they seem to have right now but it has been working for the last 20 years).
Also, the Dan Rather thing - old Joy tried to bring in Bush on that and Bush never said a damn thing about that a**hole. Funny part was when Joy stated that Dan was suing and of course, he did and it was thrown out of court.
Libs are weak and their only tactic is launching insults and lies in rapid fire succession based, again, on a false premise. Lastly, people who can only yell at you and not listen to what you have to say are most likely afraid of what you will tell them.

Liberals need to twist the facts and deceive people. The poll that said that 52% of people now favor a public option was a deceptive question and therefore the results are disingenuous.
Conservatives only have to tell the truth.

Don't go spouting off and calling people liars if you can't back up what you say.
She either thinks she's funny (not), or just REALLY bad at her job... both I think. Example: I watched a brief little bit of the View once because Brooks and Dunn were singing.. when they were done and the hosts walked over to chit chat, this idiot said "Which is Brooks and which is Dunn"? You could see from the looks on their faces that they were disgusted and insulted... the interview went downhill from there. I thought this was incredibly rude and ignorant. If she didn't know who was who, she should have asked before she spoke to them. They've been in the business 20+ years... they're not amateurs.

Behar has a point about polls...
October 23, 2009 - 11:16 ET by stage9...but so does Coulter. Fox is already seen as a "Conservative" news channel. Whether they are or not is irrelevant. It's perception that matters. When Fox does a poll it is immediately discredited because liberals claim the numbers are slanted to favor Conservatives. The same with CiNN, MSpiNBC, ABC & CBS. They can't be trusted because the assumption is their viewers are already biased in favor of whatever the point of view of the station is.
SO, the only logical concluson you can make is that in order to have accurate polling numbers, you should use an independent pollster.
With that said:
http://www.rasmussen...
Networks need to stop doing polls altogether. They are useless and untrustworthy. They only reflect the views of their audiences and not the nation as a whole.
As for the accusations of "Fox lying", why is it so hard to counter claims with facts? If Fox is lying, then counter their position with facts and stop with all this blind rhetoric! The "liar, liar pants on fire" approach is getting really tiring.

Sorry?
October 23, 2009 - 11:26 ET by JWFWhat was Behar's point about the polls?
Sorry?
October 23, 2009 - 11:40 ET by JWFWhat poll are you referring to? What Fox Poll? Behar got all of her stuff from Politifact.
Politifact: It came from a survey of "practicing physicians" published in mid September. The survey was sponsored by the newspaper Investor's Business Daily and was done by the firm TechnoMetrica Institute of Policy and Politics, or TIPP.
That kinda sounds independent to me.
Behar did not mention the source of the other Poll. I looked. I can't find it. I found a biased 57% poll that Ann probably saw. Behar probably polled the bats in her belfry.
Sincerely,

phew, that was a whippin'
October 23, 2009 - 11:19 ET by BKeyserAs my son might say:
Behar...pwn'd.
If Behar is gonna fact check Beck, at least get some facts.
October 23, 2009 - 11:21 ET by JWFPolitifact: And to that end, we refer to a report from NumbersUSA, a group dedicated to reducing immigration levels, and which backs Deal's bill. They found that in addition to the United States, there are 33 countries that offer automatic, unconditional citizenship to children born within their borders.
They offer several qualifiers. No European nations grant birthright citizenship (but we note that Romania is on the list). Canada is the only developed nation other than the United States. No nation in the group other than the United States has more than 200 million people. Only the United States, Pakistan and Mexico have 50 million or more. For the full list, go here .
BEHAR: Ok and he also said -- and how about this one. He said this is only country that has automatic citizenship. That`s not true. Brazil has it, Canada has it, Guatemala has it, a lot of countries have it. So he really needs to get his facts together.
Maybe it is because I was born here, or maybe it is the conservative in me, or the veteran mentality, but Canada? Guatemala? I'll take a pass. I spent 9 months in here. I'll wait a few more days until a better choice comes along.
You know what? I watch Fox News with all the lying going on. I coulda swore it was Richard Armitage that leaked Plame's name. Siily me, prolly a lie.
Sincerely,
a Veteran of a 1000 psychic wars.
I know these countries offer citizenship,
October 23, 2009 - 12:23 ET by richb313I know these countries offer citizenship but the real question is if it is automatic. The country might not be able to refuse if the person claims citizenship but unless they make that claim and are living in the country in question does citizneship apply? I do not know? Does anyone here? I think the key word is automatic and what that means. In the US you are a US Citizen if you are born here or one of your parents is a citizen. It is automatic and you have no need to apply. You have to actively renounce citizenship if you want to be a non citizen if born here or born of at least one American Citizen.

Behar was a comedian first
October 23, 2009 - 12:48 ET by ForeverOnTheRightBehar was a comedian first before she was on The View. Do you think comedians choose that profession because they have a PhD or Bachelors in anything? (I know you probably know this, but humor me on this.) One does not have to have intellect to be a comedian, just wit and humor. To be on the view, all you had to be was a celebrity of some sort. Not much for credentials on her part. On the other hand Coulter has to have intellect to write what she writes. I don’t know but I bet Coulter has a degree from some college or university. Does Behar? I don’t know. Coulter has had to debate these weak minded liberals many times, so she is experienced in this.
Seems to me that liberals have been puting comedians, community organizers and former pro wrestlers up for election etc. (Franken, Behar, Ventura and Obama.)

October 23, 2009 - 13:07 ET by MightyMouthI mean it's really not fair to have to sit across from a 6 year old and discuss politics! Joy came pretty close to sticking her fingers in her ears and shouting "IM NOT LISTENING! NANANANANA!"

Is she trying to not listen to the facts herself? Or is she trying to distract her viewers from absorbing what Ann says by moving on?
Either way it's not right to say Fox lies just because they have different sources that go against what you say (or want rather).

October 23, 2009 - 21:20 ET by HogTideRebelCatsNo wonder the more Behar talked the smarter I felt.
Hah hah, that was great

Joy Is An Idiot
October 23, 2009 - 15:33 ET by GothampcWhy does Joy continue to interview Ann Coulter? Everytime she does, Ann smacks her down with intelligent, well thought out responses. And Joy looks all the more stupid by saying things like "Try to keep up with me."
She's also laughable by saying things like "Can't go down memory lane that far" and then immediately bringing up the Valerie Plame incident. Seems she has a very selective memory lane.
Behar and the Fox Lies
October 23, 2009 - 15:46 ET by grumpyoldbJoy Behar wouldn't know the truth if it walked up and bit her fat ass.. She has no room to talk about lying after making a career of bashing conservatives with outright lies and half-truths. What has been, is yet another arm of the liberal propaganda machine. Joy Behar has no idea what the truth is, she just does was Move-On.org tells her to without putting any degree of thought into it.

MikeB to Joyless Butthead:
October 23, 2009 - 18:52 ET by MikeBMikeB to Joyless Butthead: Which people are "some people", and what lies? A Washington Post poll may show a 52% approval rating for Obama, and the Rasmussen poll may show only 49% approval and a 50% disapproval, with 29% strongly approving and 38% strongly disapproving. Are either of these polls "lying", Joyless? I would advise you to go back to teaching high school english, but that would be cruelty to children.

Slam dunk.
October 23, 2009 - 18:56 ET by JimcinscAnn Coulter makes Joy Behar look like the blithering idiot she really is. It's sad more elected Republicans don't have the stones that Ann has.
Ann kicked Behar's ass
October 23, 2009 - 21:16 ET by HogTideRebelCatsOMG!!!
Coulter totally kicked Behar's ass. And . . .
Ann Coulter is WAY better looking!!!

October 23, 2009 - 21:17 ET by client8never learns. Coulter eats her lunch every time. She must go back to her dressing room screaming at her producers, but a dope is a dope. you can't change that.
You know, the truly delicious (sorry, Noel) part of...
October 23, 2009 - 21:24 ET by R D HelmBehar vs. Coulter, is that Joy probably went home afterward, smug in the erroneous belief that she actually prevailed.

October 24, 2009 - 05:29 ET by Blix AmericaI love Ann and she did a great job but she missed a very good point with this one. All of the examples Joy Behar gave are from commentary / opinion shows on the Fox network. They are not from actual news reports. Glan Beck and Sean Hannity are not news shows. They are commentary shows.
People need to learn the difference between entertainment and journalism.

October 24, 2009 - 06:58 ET by RR GOPLeftists are lemmings that follow their pre-conceived notions. They're too unstable, unknowledgeable, immature and unsure of themselves to question anything outside of the pre-determined boxes they've molded their lives into.
