Did a caller just call Nancy Grace a "Trailer Wh*re" on Larry King?
Edited on Wed Apr-20-05 08:55 PM by Wolsh
Thats what is sounded like and Nancy has been explaining that she only made fun of Michael Jackson the day he wore pajamas to court and that she really was non-biased.

Anyway I'm not watching very closely but thats what I heard. Can anyone confirm or deny it?

6. I don't care if she's Howard Dean's Mistress...

She's as biased as they come, and totally foreign to the idea of "innocent until proven guilty". I don't pick favorites, I calls them likes I sees them.

13. Do not tell me that she is a Democrat???? I don't believe it!......
I can't stand that woman; whenever she is on the TV, the station gets changed immediately! Whoever thinks that she is a Democrat has got to be misinformed!

16. That shrill imbecile is a Dem?
I find that REALLY hard to believe--perhaps the media just says that to reflect poorly on the Democrats.

I find her about as tolerable as Dr Laura.

4. In all honesty
I wasn't exactly paying close attention either. There was a gap, though, as though the caller had said something that got bleeped, and that is what got my attention. It was after that that she said the nasty thing...

5. She's always mad about something.
Never saw anybody in such a state of irrational, perpetual fury.

15.  I loathe this kind of nomenclature . .
Alluding to "trailer anything" is just like saying "white trash" or other classist or racist epithets. Can't stand Nancy Grace--but it has nothing whatsoever to do with her accent, her being from the South, or even her form of domicile.

You may think I am just being politically correct. NOT. I am an overeducated Southern child of a working-class family. My mom and dad lived in a mobile home after they retired. You sound like a snotty boob. Think about it.

17. I don't believe it should be taken literally....
We all know that people live where they like, or where they can. Some of the lovliest folks in the world live in mobile homes.

19. Of *course* it is not literal
but it is still a demeaning reference to a lower-income class of people and having grown up in that class I know how people wince when they hear it. It hurts. People who unthinkingly use it should be taught better manners.

20. Yeah, well,
my education lets me "pass as middle class." Plus I am vociferous and extremely dogged.

11. I've got music on
Larry King has to be the most "softball" interviewer ever. & O'Liely has the best ratings on Faux. Go figure.

21. Ms. "grace" got a healthy taste of humility.
She deserved and earned it. She makes a living being a persecutor and negative commentator on human existence.

We already have a right-wing fascist regime imposing that tyrannical shit in our country!!!

We don't need any further assistance by Ms. "grace". She and the female fascist Coulter should start their own club,...on a deserted island where all tyrannical human material is sent to kill off their own.

I am so sick of these people profitting off human weakness rather than inpiring human strength.

I am sick of these predatory human diseases.

22. Larry King's program is suitable for parakeet hypnosis (at best)
And I'm trying really hard to be charitable here . . .

23. An insult to trailer whores. Nancy Grace hates America plain and simple
She hates the constitution and admits it every day on national TV

26. Here is the transcript so you don't think you were hearing things
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0504/20/lkl.01.html

<snip>CALLER: Well, let -- please let me finish this time. At what point are we supposed to accept the people that are nothing happened to them? How can you accept the persons word, that they stood by and didn't do anything if the kid is saying nothing happened. And then secondly, and your making fun of Michael Jackson is (AUDIO GAP), you look like a trailer park whore.

KING: Hold on. Stop that. I won't have that kind of thing. These reports of making fun, Nancy. Can you explain this. Why are they saying, that you make fun of him, I don't know?

GRACE: Well, Larry, I do have to admit that the day he came to court in his pajamas, it was quite a spectacle. So, if everybody -- if everybody wants to focus on that instead of the five...

KING: You don't make fun of him?

GRACE: No. No. I want to go back to the facts though, Larry.
