Lap dance?
Who cares? She’s not an “ABC Anchor.” She’s on a talk show, not a news broadcast.
She was practicing telling Santa she wants a big bag o’ money for Christmas.
But…she is still touching him. And letting him touch her.
That’s an “Ewww” factor for me.
Donald claims to be 6-2. She must have been wearing some skyscaper heels even if she’s a 6-footer.
She knew what she was doing by posting that picture.
He’s clearly sitting down.
The answer to the breathless headline is in the story, which is that this isn’t a story. It’s the entertainment business. Everybody loves everybody who comes on their show.
Thanks for clearing that up, TPM. Thats hard hitting journalism right there. Meanwhile, in Syria…
Ohmygod! How tall is he? How tall is she? Is he sitting down? In she standing? Is she sitting, gasp!, on his lap? Who. Fucking. Cares?
Amen.Must be a slow news day -proof is the same lame story has been front page all day
Would Edward R. Murrow, Walter Cronkite or Dan Rather have allowed themselves to be photographed posed with a candidate like that? And to be quoted in such a way it makes it sound like they are personally giving an endorsement?
I don’t think so.
She’s 5’6" and he’s supposedly 6’2". It’s possible he was seated, though, and she was standing, which could have created that specific differential.
But where are we that reporters think kissing up to candidates is acceptable in any way? I guess she’s not really a reporter, so much as on-air personality.
Meanwhile, Mika and Joe are hanging with the Kochs on the Kochs dime.
Is there anyone in the media with any gravitas at all who will come down hard on all these so-called journalists letting themselves be bought off? Anyone? I know Media Matters and TPM and liberal blogs will, but will anyone in the media shine the light on this and say what a danger it is to our democracy?
sure looks she is sitting on his lap. ABC’s tentpole program?? Is that what the Donald was sporting after this photo?
Yes, hora_del_cafe, she knew she was posting click bait. TPM has just helped her along.
And let it not be forgotten that Josh coined the term, back in the days when it was possible to believe that the MSM in DC wasn’t utterly coopted, corrupt and rotted.
The auditions for wife number – is it three or five or what? – have begun.
Jesus Christ. This kind of thing is why so many moderates in America vote right. Open your eyes.
Actually that would make him about 5’8"…
Doesn’t she have a show on HGTV, too?
Anyway, not much of a journalist. Just a girl trying to make an honest living.
But those guys didn’t have a blonde with hair extensions and veneers, they only had Helen Thomas to snuggle up to (and I hope your Snark-O-Meter is set for high).
He still has short vuglar fingers regardless of his height.
