Malkin quits The Factor…
ICN has obtained an email written by Michelle Malkin that states she has quit doing The O’Reilly Factor…
From: “Michelle Malkin”
To: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2007 23:04:58 -0400
Subject: Re: Michelle no longer on the Factor?
I made the decision to quit appearing on the O’Reilly show in response to the poor handling of the Geraldo Rivera matter (the staged “apology” on The Factor was a complete farce). I won’t go into details, but please know that your support means a lot to me. You can catch me on other Fox News shows and read my daily blog posts and weekly columns at MichelleMalkin.com.Best,
Michelle
I agree with her about the apology Rivera gave on air - he apologized more that it made him look bad than that it hurt her - but I hope some day she’ll reconsider.
Comment by Laurel — October 14, 2007 @ 4:15 pm
Truly a sad day when O’Reilly would take the side of Geraldo over Michelle. In fact that forced “faux” sorry was
almost an insult. Good for Michelle we all know what kind
of person Geraldo is and it’s a shame the Bill rewared his
bad behavior, he should have been the one to go.
You go girl.

Thank God!
I can stand this self-righteous jerk who does not know how to talk like an adult.
Best news I’ve heard in a long time!
Comment by semby — October 14, 2007 @ 4:40 pm
Thanks for making my day! Now I don’t have to see that ugly mug on TV anymore! She was never that good anyway. A really poor man’s ann coulter!
Comment by Roddy A. — October 14, 2007 @ 4:58 pm
Ooh, Ann Coulter vs Kirsten Powers! That would be some debate! Michelle and Kirsten have great chemistry. Monica Crowley just isn’t doing it for me, although Tammy Bruce isn’t so bad.

A little boycott action, eh?
Comment by Terance — October 14, 2007 @ 5:16 pm
Who cares?
Comment by RJ — October 14, 2007 @ 5:18 pm
A big loss to the show. Michelle was excellent as a pundit & guest host.
Any day Geraldo can act like a jerk and still get preferential treatment over someone as smart, talented, and hot as Michelle, there’s something seriously wrong.
Comment by bigred — October 14, 2007 @ 6:19 pm
Personally, I was never a big fan of Michelle on The Factor. I think she does very well in small segments, but an entire hour is a little too much.
I like the way this was handled. For the most part, it was all quiet and behind-the-scenes. There weren’t any press releases or angry blog posts or calls-to-action. Quite frankly, if ICN hadn’t mentioned it, I doubt many people would have noticed.
Comment by TBDave — October 14, 2007 @ 6:30 pm
What a big baby.
If Michelle is upset that she hasn’t gotten another co-worker fired, maybe she ought to follow Kiran Chetry. Of course, no other channel would likely take her. What exactly is she still upset about, she got Geraldo, a man of immense stature in the business, to apologize over and over like a little kid in front of millions of people… a lot more people than heard his offensive remarks. If she can’t move on, she has issues, and I think her contract ought to be allowed to expire.
Comment by Haile Welde — October 14, 2007 @ 6:55 pm
Can’t stand her. Good riddance I say.
Comment by Alison — October 14, 2007 @ 7:35 pm
malkin isn ‘t that great as host (she does hold in the audience though) but geraldo HAS to go. who keeps paying this fool.
Comment by Aaron — October 14, 2007 @ 7:46 pm
just to add on to my post here is something i just thought of:
if geraldo doesn’t get canned soon, this means that one day rick sanchez will morph into geraldo and we will have two of the most horrible anchors ever to be allowed on tv.
Comment by Aaron — October 14, 2007 @ 7:47 pm
Michelle Malking is fabulous!
Comment by Olivia — October 14, 2007 @ 7:49 pm
Aaron, Geraldo is getting a FAT paycheck.. and unlike CNN, FNC doesn’t send people home to mow the grass.. especially not a big time BANKER like Geraldo!
Comment by Terance — October 14, 2007 @ 7:58 pm
I’m going to boycott O’Reilly on this one. Michelle deserves better. I will try to catch her on the other shows and am proud she stood her ground.
Who at Fox is protecting this guy? He is so fake and dishonest.
Comment by VMart — October 14, 2007 @ 8:17 pm
Haile: Agree.
Even though I am basically on her side in the immigration argument, Malkin is hardly acting like a mature adult.
It will be interesting who guest hosts The Factor the next time BOR is “on assignment.” Is Laura Ingraham back in Bill’s good graces?
Comment by Ira — October 14, 2007 @ 9:24 pm
Ira,
What happened between Bill and Laura? Puzzled.
Thanks.
Comment by Cella — October 14, 2007 @ 9:29 pm
I don’t think Michelle is being unreasonable in expecting a sincere apology from Geraldo. Sincere apologies are made in person or by personal contact - not after being prodded for one on national TV. He was really nasty to her, and he owes her an apology.
Now how O’Reilly fits into this, I’m not sure, besides the supposed apology was made on his show. Maybe she expected him to do something more, I don’t know.
Comment by Laurel — October 14, 2007 @ 9:52 pm
#17 - I think it was the other way around regarding O’Reilly and Ingraham, Ira. As I remember it, Ingraham didn’t appear on O’Reilly’s show for quite a while because she objected to the Factor showing B-roll of Paris Hilton cavorting in a bikini and the like over and over. Anyway, she was on a week or two ago promoting her book.
As for Michelle Malkin, I was never a fan but I am guessing she put forth a “it’s either him or me” ultimatum, which is a bit immature. She could have simply refused to appear with him in the future. What brought this to a head happened outside of the Fox News universe, so I always saw it as an outside thing between the two. Geraldo didn’t threaten to spit on her on O’Reilly’s show. I don’t blame her for not wanting to have anything to do with the guy…he is a hack as far as I’m concerned. Still, she is giving up a good gig in being the main fill-in for O’Reilly when he is on vacation.
Comment by FishOil — October 14, 2007 @ 10:24 pm
There may have been more to it than we know, but remember, Rivera’s comment to Michelle was atrocious, and O’Reilly and Geraldo just kind of glossed over it (O’Reilly stating that Michelle’s “feelings were hurt”). How condescending, and belitting to Michelle.
And what is going on here? Both Michelle and Laura Ingraham were EXCELLENT substitute anchors, and it seems that they are both now gone? Even though BOR is the “king of cable” someone needs to reign him in. He’s getting up there in age, and FNC will need a suitable replacement for him within the next 5 - 10 years or so.
Comment by Missy — October 14, 2007 @ 11:32 pm
Malkin is pond scum, o’reily ain’t much better and rivera is just a toady.
Comment by r.u. kiddinme — October 15, 2007 @ 12:25 am
Don’t forget that Olbermann named her worst person in the world because Geraldo wanted to spit on her. As far as I know, not one FNC person took Olbermann to task for that. The suits at Fox tried to ignore the whole issue and that probably ended up being a bigger issue than Geraldo’s original statement.
Comment by rw — October 15, 2007 @ 12:34 am
Malkin and Billo both make a living flinging word-feces at people, and Geraldo isn’t much better. They all deserve each other, and all the extra entertainment excrement they spewed that might accidentally land on themselves or each other is right where it should be.
Comment by Please God Make it STOP! — October 15, 2007 @ 2:31 am
What’s wrong with you people? Are you SERIOUSLY taking Malkin’s side on this? She’s one of the most vicious, vile, hateful people in the world and you’re cheering for poor defenseless Queen Bitch? All Geraldo is guilty of is expressing a genuine opinion of dislike for the piece of filth that many, many people share by the way.
Comment by youpeoplearemental! — October 15, 2007 @ 3:35 am
Michelle Perez Maglalang, who changed her name to Malkin in order to sound more American, recently declined a challenge to debate the SCHIP details with progressive blogger Ezra Klein. Maglalang does best when she talks to another right-wing commentator, or writes stories without a comment-enabled forum.
Comment by Andrew Perez — October 15, 2007 @ 8:55 am
To use one of Malkin’s favorite terms;
“yawn”.
Actually, she is one of the thinnest skinned (is that a word?) pundits, right or left, I have seen. She takes everything as a causus belli, and has engaged in so many petty fights with people who insult her, while many other pundits and bloggers just blow off larger insults.
Comment by eddiebear — October 15, 2007 @ 8:58 am
Malkin is so hateful that even the ultra-conservative Wall Street Journal said this weekend that SCHIP attacks on Graeme Frost, (amplified by Malkin, by the way) are unjustified. Here the WSJ piece:

No, that would be the OlberNutCase.
Comment by PF — October 15, 2007 @ 9:00 am
I’ll be honest here, just reading these comments and realizing that most of you people actually watch FOX News is really creeping me out. I mean, I knew you were out there, but it’s rare I actually come into any sort of contact with you twisted bastards.

Interesting comment from this story’s mirror at Huffington Post:
Comment by Maglalang Watch — October 15, 2007 @ 9:59 am
Watching Michelle Malkin on FOX is like watching a dog take a crap to music.
Comment by FGF — October 15, 2007 @ 10:01 am
I’ll opt for watching the dog. More factual, more informative.
Comment by Maglalang Watch — October 15, 2007 @ 11:19 am
I think Fox should give Ann and Michelle their own show. They can call it the ” The Michelle and Ann Comedy Hour”.
Comment by Innocent Bystander — October 15, 2007 @ 11:22 am
Oh did Daily Kos show up? Maybe the Huffers. They say you can tell a person’s stature by their enemies. When the left shows up to kick Michelle Malkin, it means she is getting to them, Good For Her. I also agree with her decision. I wish Bill O’Reilly would reconsider his decision, to stick with Geraldo, I emailed him along theses lines. I am already registered on Michelle Malkin’s blog it is great.
The Daily Kos, Move On and the Huffington Post people really can’t stand Michelle Malkin….why because she shows them up for what they are and they hate it.
Comment by Ree — October 15, 2007 @ 11:35 am
I love when the blue blogs link here, and the loons come out to play. I often wish we could see the ISPs though… sometimes I think it’s just one person talking to themself over and over and over again.
Comment by ImNotBlue — October 15, 2007 @ 11:36 am
Geraldo is a liberal hired by FOX? BWahaha. The FOX people are nuts. A FOX person attacks a FOX person then a FOX person quits after that FOX person apologises because she said the FOX persons apology was a farce? And its the democrats fault that a FOX person [Geraldo] made a comment about Rush? And that Malkin, even after her credibility was trashed, by her own reporting on Jamal Hussein/AP thing, which Malkin ended up apologizing for and even after she helped smear a 12 year old agitpropping some freeper nuttiness,which Malkin then flamed a redstater? But because shes kinda cute Malkin should keep her contract and that RINO [LMAO, get real] Geraldo is a liberal just because he thinks Rush is an idiot?
Good lord, you FOX watchers are some kind of confused, is nothing ever YOUR fault?
Frankly, I dont watch FOX or Malkin and have no reason to hate her or that she shows anyone up. More Hilarity!
Comment by Ya Know... — October 15, 2007 @ 11:51 am
And somehow this is all the Democrats fault…
You FECKs Snooze folks do realize that this whole inane diatribe was created by FECKs Snooze don’t you? And that no self-respecting conservative independent or democrat watches or really cares what Malkin, Geraldo, or Bile has to say. Ann Coulter even says FECKS Snooze is NOT conservative.
Comment by Ya Know... — October 15, 2007 @ 11:56 am
Spud & Blue: Given all the crazy new names here, all attempting to be creative but basically saying the same stupid things, I would guess that a link to this thread appeared on a left-wing site.
Cella: FishOil explained the riff between O’Reilly and Ingraham. Apparently they have nowkissed and made up. I expect Laura will again guest host The Factor.
The bottom line is that Michelle Malkin is in the public arena and that requires that you live with both the good and the bad of celebrity. And IMO she is foolish for refusing to not appear on the top show on cable news.
Comment by Ira — October 15, 2007 @ 12:04 pm
Love Michelle. Loved her on The Factor. Bill was a total wimp with the Geraldo v. Michelle feud but Geraldo is a full time FNC employee and Michelle is only a “contributor”. Easy to see how FNC would choose Geraldo to win that one.
I can’t stand Geraldo. Never watch him. When he is on The Factor or any other show I channel surf until he is gone. Gag!
Isn’t the freedom to choose great! I love cable TV.

Who are you? And just because she doesn’t agree with you, that doesn’t make her a bigot.
Comment by ImNotBlue — October 15, 2007 @ 12:48 pm
Perhaps she now can go get the mental health assistance she so truly needs. When people spew such hate and bigotry, there usually is some deep seated emotional problem underneath the layers of denial.
Comment by jillian — October 15, 2007 @ 1:07 pm
Ree asserted:
Likewise, you can tell a great deal about a blog commenter by their choice of tired, over-used cliché, especially the commentors that fail to understand the discernable difference between, say, a snarky critic and an “enemy.” One might even assume that said commenter is yet another pitiable victim of homeschooling.Heh. Indeedy.
Comment by Maglalang Watch — October 15, 2007 @ 1:13 pm
Michelle Malkin is the same cooky columnist who once said that “Malkin: “the vast majority of mainstream Hispanic politicians” believe that “the American Southwest belongs to Mexico”"
Comment by Andrew Perez — October 15, 2007 @ 1:58 pm
Did all those people who are saying the goofy, “She’ll now have time…” nonsense, read the part where she said that she’ll be doing other FNC stuff… just not O’Reilly.
Maglalang… why is Michelle’s name change important to you? Are you also upset about someone like Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz… AKA Jon Stewart? And if I were talking about clichés… I’d probably read a few more comments posted above… noting all the people who gave the same “bigot” or “get help” comment. How come those didn’t bother you?

Comment by Maglalang Watch — October 15, 2007 @ 3:17 pm
Michelle Malkin does not write her own stuff, he husband Jesse does. It has been proved with numerous posts posted when she was on a plane, speaking at a conference etc. She is more presentable as a woman and a minority to spout his racist hate speech. That is why she had to leave the Factor.
Comment by RealityCheck — October 15, 2007 @ 3:34 pm
You think because she uses her maiden name for her books, the name she was using professionally before she was married… she’s what? Not your idea of what she should be… and therefore bad?
And why in the heck would you want to see her pre-nup? Who cares? I can’t believe the lengths you’d actually think about going, just to try to slime someone who disagrees with you. Do you stomp your feet and cry when you lose at checkers too?
Really, if that’s the best you can do… I think you need to go back to Blue Blog Boot Camp… your initial brainwashing didn’t take. You may have got the wash… but not the brain.
Oh, and Jon is relevant. If you’re going to get all huffy about someone changing their name… you should do it across the board. That is, unless you’re proud of your hypocrisy.
Comment by ImNotBlue — October 15, 2007 @ 3:43 pm
RealityCheck, I think your tinfoil hat is on too tight. That’s some crazy stuff you said there… and so little of it made any kind of sense at all. Even if all that stuff is true (and I’m sure it’s not)… why would that mean she’d have to quit the Factor?
Wow, trying to wrap my mind around someone believing what you just said is giving me a headache. Wow. Just wow.
Comment by ImNotBlue — October 15, 2007 @ 3:46 pm
Wow. O’Reilly, Malkin, and Rivera. Three completely detestable characters who can’t get along with one another. Oh, the (in)humanity!

Please review my original post. It’s actually pretty easy to understand. Or do you have a problem with fundamental reading comprehension? That sort of thing can happen when one lives on a diet of right-leaning propaganda and talking points as opposed to, say, actually engaging the cerebral cortex and employing this concept called critical thinking.One correction: hubby’s name is Jesse, not Adam. I’m surprised I made that mental hiccup; I have a friend who regaled me some years ago about being forced to withstand a few of his undergraduate years in some of the same classes as Jesse, whom she described as a closed-minded, arrogant gnat of a man. And then there’s his penchant for threatening physical violence
Sounds like just the right man for concentration camp proponent Michelle.
I know, I know, it’s irrelevant. I digress. Or perhaps it is relevant, especially given Michelle’s penchant for stalking. Certainly it’s more relevant than your angry, frustrated, one might even assume jealous obsession with Jonathan Stuart Leibowitz, a smart, savvy and successful celebrity.
Comment by Maglalang Watch — October 15, 2007 @ 5:27 pm
No surprise the Bill took Geraldo’s side. Maybe it’s a male thing.
Comment by kscitydude — October 15, 2007 @ 6:08 pm
To Ira, who wrote: she is foolish for refusing to not appear on the top show on cable news.
I think O’Reilly is foolish for not making sure she returns when he’s away. Now, he’ll have to do with John Kasich. Whoopee. Not that he’s bad at filling in, but be honest — who would you rather look at?
To Maglalang Watch: Grow up. People use whatever name is convenient for them. Hillary Clinton was known as “Hillary Clinton” when Bill Clinton was running in 1992, but in January 1993, after his inauguration, the word went out: she is to be referred to as “Hillary Rodham Clinton.” And unlike the stories about Jesse Malkin (or is that “Adam”?) being the true author of her work, that story is true. To allege that she has no right to use her married name when and wherever she chooses to is symptomatic of the emptiness of your accusations against her.
Comment by L.N. Smithee — October 15, 2007 @ 6:27 pm
O’Reilly demonstrated how little respect he has for Malkin by continuing to bring Geraldo on as a legit commentator after his vile remarks about her. At least Michelle rerained a modicum of self respect by refusing to appear in the No Spin Zone any longer.
Comment by mrogi — October 15, 2007 @ 6:48 pm
Malkin is on the way up because she delivers. O’Reilly’s loss. Geraldo too mickey mouse to even consider.
Comment by DaMav — October 15, 2007 @ 7:27 pm
Awww… did I make you upset? Let’s hug it out. You jump to the insults pretty quick… while you then refer to other people as being “close-minded” and “arrogant”… they make these shiny mirror things now, you might want to give one a look.
Oh I get it… you think she’s being hypocritical because she used her maiden name a few times. *GASP* She doesn’t fit your specific definition of what all those people who don’t think like you do, should be! OH NO! Well, clearly it’s her fault, not yours. I mean, who is she to disagree with your prejudices… oops, I mean your spoon fed liberal talking points… oops, I mean your vast intelligence. Yeah… you must be correct… because, we’ll… you just must be!
Sheesh… I love it when you people get all huffy because someone doesn’t fit you idea of what they should be. Yeah, but don’t worry… you guys are still the “open minded” ones. HA!
Oh… and all that other stuff… what does that have to do with anything again? Looks like someone might be… dare I say it… jealous of Michelle?! After all… who goes around to blogs (which they’ve never actually been to before) just so they can post information about one particular person? Who names themselves after that person… knows all kinds of history… and then calls people who disagree names? Who does something like that? Oh wait… you do! Obsessed much?
PS
I pointed out, Jon is a big liberal icon (you might have mistakenly missed where I wrote that… twice)… someone famous who has also changed his name… but because he’s a liberal you’d never dare say anything negative… that would break the code. As for me… a Jew myself… looking at someone who changed his name so he’d less “Jewish”… yeah, something about that does rub me the wrong way.

I ALWAYS tuned in to watch Malkin on O’Reilly. She is so much stronger on the issues than that wimp O’Reilly who is too politically correct. Too bad for FoxNews.
Comment by Rob — October 15, 2007 @ 8:55 pm
Malkin is a baby, O’Reilly is tired, and Geraldo should know better than to work at Faux, but I guess it was the end of the line for him. Malkin’s defense of hanging nooses and her attack on the SCHIP family has really been too much to stomach of late, but a good thing I suppose.
She is the gift that doesn’t stop giving actually. When the general American public witnesses her wingnut fringe tactics the GOP loses votes.
Comment by Cletis Trout — October 15, 2007 @ 9:15 pm
I also believe she is so misguided. Point in check, her outrage over the violence and filth in hip hop and then she turns around and supports the rude Sweater Kittenz and their violent song Hadiji Girl.
C’mon people, you support this hypocrisy in a dress?
Comment by Cletis Trout — October 15, 2007 @ 9:23 pm
Malkin is a self-hater who projects her hatred towards liberals and progressives because some “leftislamofascist” commenters and editors slagged her sloppy and slapdash columns while she worked in Seattle, WA. I have to agree with “Cletis Trout” that she has brought thousands of people over to the left of center by her psychotic episodes…I mean television appearances and it’s a shame she won’t be on the air with Bileous O’Rightous to bring the rest of the undecided voters back to our side of the fence.
Comment by Wilson — October 15, 2007 @ 9:33 pm
I’d like to point out, once again, to all those people who don’t like to read… that Malkin said she is going to stop appearing on O’Reilly. She then goes on to specifically say that she will continue to appear on “other Fox News shows…”
Read people, read.
Comment by ImNotBlue — October 15, 2007 @ 9:42 pm
Did you know that Bill Orielly, did the Fox how inside edition. Basically a tabloid show, where he talked about hollywood gossip and other crap. When are you righties going to figure out that these people (like billo) are only in it for the money. And like Rush Limpballs are only carrying water for this criminal administration. When are you going to figure out the man coulter is in it just for the money also, and that she is a bad comedian. Well keep buying the books and believing the hype. you will only be the losers while they keep getting richer.
Comment by hector — October 15, 2007 @ 10:10 pm

I think Fishoil nailed it:
“As for Michelle Malkin, I was never a fan but I am guessing she put forth a “it’s either him or me” ultimatum”
This sounds the most plausible from her personality. Michelle getting close to an Ann Coulter flame-out, Her heads getting a bit large.
Best comment I heard on talk radio to sum up Michelle Malkin BTW: “She’s a Slunt” and that was from two women!LOL
Comment by Doug Longstreth — October 16, 2007 @ 12:25 am

After going to the house of a 12 year-old boy whose life was saved by the S-Chip program and lying about the boys family. No one can have ANY Remorse for Michele Malkin. She purposely went after a child for political reasons. As for leaving the O’reilly Factor good. I don’t like the show it’s too Bias.
Comment by Tony — October 16, 2007 @ 2:25 am
If Michelle Malkin were to evolve enough to apologize to all the people she has smeared with her childish ad hominem attacks, she would need hundreds of hours of air time. Same applies to Bill O’Reilly, Brit Hume, Brian Kilmeade, E.D. Hill and Sean Haniity

How about no news organization allow her on the air till she apologizes for the hateful venom she spews out at a 12 year old boy and his family. If some right wing nutcase attacks this kid or the family she will have a lot to answer for. She’s a bigot, a big mouth, a lier and an obviously nasty human being. She’s lower then the lowest and thats why she can only get appearances on fox noise.
Comment by Zodden — October 16, 2007 @ 5:30 am
Geraldo treats women like Michael Vick treats dogs. He is a slimeball and a machismo fanatic. His hatred of those who believe in enforcing our borders is just one more reason his career is a point where he relies on guest spots on a cable show. I turn off Geraldo when his face is on the screen He is a disgrace to all Puerto Ricans, who are US citizens and do not spit on women.

Quite the opposite. Your vapid, shallow response is amusing. A pity you’re so closed-minded as not to have noticed it yourself.
If you’d actually read what I wrote, you’d understand the issue is a bit deeper than mere hypocrisy — but then, you either are incapable of comprehending what I originally wrote or intentionally obfuscating. I suspect the latter.
Jealous of a stalker? Who lies, misrepresents facts, and is a de facto supporter of apartheid, concentration camps and other such un-American practices? Who now has to deal not only with the hassles of celebrity but legal issues surrounding her stalking of the Frosts and a declining career at FOX as the high honchos scramble for a way to show her the door? Besides, it would be not dissimilar to being jealous of Tokyo Rose.
Looks like someone is projecting.

Is it my imagination or has the right wing turned into a bunch of whinners? Boo-hoo, I didn’t get a good apology so I’m taking my ball and going home. Waa, I really do like the troops, I really support them. Those nasty poo-poo head liberals took my words out of context. Meanwhile, because I’m a Democrat Coulter says I’m a trator and Hannity says I give aid and comfort to the enemy. Ok, you got me. I am out to get you, I’m going to continue to take your words out of context. Bite me.

Thank you for noticing that you’re projecting.
Now if we could just shake the crazy out of you, we’d be set.
Come on… let’s hug it out. I know you love Michelle… your name is a little tribute there… but she doesn’t know who you are. This is all a cry for attention… “Michelle, look at me! Look at me!” But she never turns around. Your tough exterior… the name calling, the insulting… I know, you’re trying to hide the gooey nugget center where you can admit only to yourself that you like Michelle.
It’s okay MW… it’s okay. Gimme a hug. These arms were a’meant for squeezing… I’ll help the crazy go away. It’s okay… Shhhhh… shhhh.

Malkin has remarkably thin skin for insults, considering they are her bread and butter. Another contemptible winger. Go figure.
Comment by Heretic — October 16, 2007 @ 11:58 am
Michelle Malkin is the most vile, hateful commentator I’ve ever seen. Geraldo got it right, apolgize? for what? I’m glad she’s gone.
Comment by tluptowski — October 16, 2007 @ 12:44 pm
I’m surprised, and disappointed, that Michelle quit. I think she stayed on BOR just to annoy Geraldo. My remote goes into action when Geraldo appears on BOR.
Comment by slocooker — October 16, 2007 @ 12:45 pm
I never watch O’Reilly but, anything that reduces Malkin’s “face time” to spread her vitriolic nonsense is alright by me.
Comment by TennMom — October 16, 2007 @ 1:08 pm
She was an angry B. I notice it’s only women who liked her and the only good thing guys had to say was “she looked good” - so, we got rid of another “attractive B.” - there are LOTS of them around. Good riddance and may Geraldo get up enough phlegm to let her have it!!

Why is it, every few comments, I have to re-post what’s written up top? Why don’t the loons know how to read?
“You can catch me on other Fox News shows and read my daily blog posts and weekly columns at MichelleMalkin.com.”
Once again… NOT FIRED, STILL ON FOX, STILL ON TELEVISION… just not doing O’Reilly. Get it? One show… off limits. Still on everywhere else. Get it?

I love when ‘I’m not blue’ posts here, and fake words like “themself” come out to play. I often wish we could see his ISP though… sometimes I think it’s just one person talking to himself over and over and over again.
Oh…wait a second…never mind.
Comment by chucky — October 17, 2007 @ 1:47 pm
MM will have her own cable show (probably on Fox) and will rival O’Reilly in viewership. She is tough, insightful, funny, beautiful and RIGHT on most issues.
Geraldo, on the other hand, is an unredeemable dolt who has no business in the business of news and opinion.
Comment by drewas — October 17, 2007 @ 3:33 pm
Good choice Michelle. Looking forward to your show on Fox.
Comment by Mike — October 18, 2007 @ 12:09 pm
Michelle Malkin is dark queen of childish-labels and hate speech. A bit harsh, I know, but she is ten times more harsh. Angry and bitter is no way to go through our short lives on earth, but apparently she thinks its the only way.
Comment by Robert Hilton — October 19, 2007 @ 6:27 am
Uh-oh… Chucky (who has posted how many times on this site?) can’t refute me, so he starts in calling out the typos. Awww… did I ruin your argument before you got to copy/paste it in? I’m sorry Chuck-o. Next time, try coming a little earlier to the party, then I can slap down your nonsense AFTER you get a chance to say it.
Comment by ImNotBlue — October 19, 2007 @ 10:20 am
but who will carry on with the braying? It can’t be Ann Coulter, her noise is more of a screech. Maybe Laura Ingraham? No, her sound is a shrill shreaking noise.

Michelle Malkin was overcome by a moonbat swarm. She is an expert, but she doesn’t know everything about the various species and subspecies of moonbats.
Comment by Orrin Hecker — October 26, 2007 @ 11:43 pm
Good riddance. Malkin epitomizes the venomous hated which so many of FNN hosts and guests preach. She and A. Coulter are two of the most divisive persons with access to media outlets in the country. Oh, add Sean Hannity and Bill O’Reilly to that list. They pretend to be independent Independents, but by merely listening to them for five minutes one can feel the ultra conservative, neo-con, pro Bush admiration readily pouring out of their mouths. Get rid of all of them. American can survive without their vile and superior attitudes very well. They are merely kowtowing to Bush’s “I’m a uniter, not a divider,” which we all know is one of the greatest falsehoods perpetuated on the citizens. —A Registered Republican who doesn’t think Ronald Reagan was the greatest president.

Glad she’s gone! She had the personality of a rock, plus whenever she read from the teleprompter, she actually sounded like she was reading from the teleprompter.
Comment by Keith — November 11, 2007 @ 6:15 am
I like MM. She doesn’t interrupt, but she destroys scumbags who need destruction.
Comment by Joe Schmuckatella — November 12, 2007 @ 8:03 pm
Wow, I did not know Michelle quit, I noticed she hasn’t been on FOX lately. In any case, O’Reilly’s show is getting boring and it’s too bad Michelle quit. She adds spice to the show and often her views make sense. BOR’s show is 98% filler — the body language segment, the culture quiz and his patriot or pinhead thing is lame. BOR is out for himself and could care less about this country — in fact, he’s the pinhead. Michelle Malkin on the other hand, is a true patriot who actually cares about our country and is genuinely concerned about the border issue. The points she brings up make sense. Geraldo, however, is the most racist commentator on FOX. He is overly protective of Latinos and will easily choose the side of an illegal alien over an American citizen. I wonder how he would feel if more than 80% of illegal aliens were now Asians or Muslims instead of the Latinos we’re seeing today. I also wonder how he would feel if he had to constantly hear “press 1 for Chinese” … THINK ABOUT IT!!!

Love Michelle, loathe Geraldo. O’Reilly, get down on your knees and get Michelle back.
Comment by Tom Sheerin — November 18, 2007 @ 1:29 pm
I’m sorry to hear that you quit. Your great to listen to and watch.
Now Geraldo is gone meat as soon as I can activate the remote control.
Comment by Carson — November 23, 2007 @ 1:57 am
I wondered what happened to Michelle Malkin. What exactly was said? Knowing the character of both her and Geraldo, I would go with Malkin every time - a far, far better person. I’m sorry she’s gone and hope she comes back.
Comment by Craig Connell — November 30, 2007 @ 8:05 pm
I knew something was missing from BOR, just figured it out.
Comment by Rob Labanowski — January 2, 2008 @ 11:22 pm
Michelle Malkin is one of the brightest, honest and articulate blogger-writer and commentator out there. O’Reilly is a bore and it is his loss not to have Michelle fill in for him. Give the job to Geraldo and see where Fox’s viewers run to.
Comment by Geo — January 5, 2008 @ 2:46 pm
I just happened to Goggle Where is Michelle Malkin and found this forum! This really suck, I loved to watch her. Yes, I think she is hot! In regards to Geraldo, what gives Fox need to kick his ass off the Network once and for all and let him land somewhere like Venezula as a commentator.
Comment by Marcus — January 11, 2008 @ 8:39 pm
Michelle Malkin did O’Reilly’s show no favors…not that O’Reilly does his show any favors. Good riddance to bad trash.
Comment by Lisa — January 14, 2008 @ 11:55 am
I loved it when Michelle filled in on the factor. She is extremely bright, articulate, and spot on when it comes to the issues. I wish she were running for President instead of Hillary. Geraldo should go on to one of the loser cable networks where he would fit right in.
Comment by Tom — January 20, 2008 @ 12:11 am
Does anybody know how to spell anymore? I’m appalled at what I see here, supposedly written in ‘English’.
Comment #2 — it is spelled “rewarded” .. not “rewared”. Punch it into MS-Word and press F7; it doesn’t exist. Do any of you spell-check? It’s not rocket science, folks, just takes a few extra seconds of WORK.
Comment #3 — I “can” stand or I “can’t” stand? Obviously it’s the latter! And this time F7 wouldn’t help. No, this time you would’ve had to actually READ your (stupid) post before submitting. Read it for grammar. Read it for logic. Ah, yes, but that would require WORK, so ..
What is it with you Americans? We Brits gave you a wonderful language 400 years ago and you’ve turned it into an abomination. You’re lazy, sloppy and disrespectful to the institution that is the English language. And your Canuck neighbours to the North fare no better (though they do spell “Z” correctly as “zed”, not “zee”!). You claim it’s more efficient to spell “colour” as “color”, though I suspect it’s more a matter of typical North American laziness.
I would blame the younger generation of North Americans and their emulation of the Paris Hilton lifestyle (i.e., ‘NOTHINGNESS’) but the spelling and grammar is just as atrocious amongst older Americans and Canadians.
Back in my day (1960s, Northern England) my knuckles would have been soundly rapped had I spelled like you, or used your sloppy grammar. Of course, that too differentiates us Europeans from you Yanks; we grew up with strict discipline and corporal punishment in school whilst your system is based on gentle nurturing and “engendering” and all that other hippy crap.
It’s OUR language. We here in England. We’ve only LENT it to you, we never GAVE it to you. If you can’t speak or write English properly, please use another language.
Perhaps .. Spanish ??

Damn she’s good looking, huh?
She should be a fashion model, not a reporter.
Does she cook?
Comment by Stevie R. — February 1, 2008 @ 1:06 pm
I agree with Steve Miller and Chris Aable. I would only add to the ever-growing list of partisan far-right hacks at the Fox propaganda channel - Bernard Goldberg, Oliver North, Dick Morris (who is obsessed with hating Hillary) and Shepard Smith, who attacked another journalist with his car at the Bush - Florida elections in 2000. He was arrested, but she “settled” with Smith for an undisclosed amount, just like Bill O’Reilly had to do with Andrea Mackris after saying he would “fight it to the end” - until he found out the next day that Andrea Mackris had tap on O’Reilly’s lude, perverted phone calls.
Anyone who thinks Fox is not far-right and partisan need only look at all the right-wing robots who defend them at every turn, even when the Fox “news” “all-stars” lie about Kerry, the Iraq War, Bush’s so-called accomplishments, etc.
If Michelle Malkin were to evolve enough to apologize to all the people she has smeared with her childish ad hominem attacks, she would need hundreds of hours of air time. Same applies to Bill O’Reilly, Brit Hume, Brian Kilmeade, E.D. Hill and Sean Hannity

Comment by pat — March 5, 2008 @ 1:35 pm
Come back Michelle. Not for O’Reilly’s sake but for that of the people who listen to his show. He is becoming more and more pathetic as he tries to “walk the line” balencing life thru the prism of his own subjective views and worse his personal desire to stay on the top of the cable ratings list.
Comment by Cynthi — June 26, 2008 @ 2:38 pm
post number 111 right on but when you speak in england you dont use proper diction. IE:military = militry–over =ova–water=wota–october=octoba– november=novemba etc–rather = rotha–any word ending in er comes out as A-example creeper =creepa-any word ending in ea comes out sounding R example idea -ideer–past=post– whopper=woppa–half=huff–fast=fost–past=post–last=lost–take=tyke–figure=figr–crave=criveetc and on and on . I do agree that spelling in US ofAmerica is terrible.One other thing that bothers me is that we call USA, America when Canada and Mexico and Central America and South America are also America. As for Michelle Malkin, she was a better guest on BOR than Rivera will ever be.
