Another segment attacking my essay. Still a refusal to have me on to defend my arguments – despite now talking about my essay several times. And this misrepresentation from Greg Gutfeld:
Bob, do you think this was a good idea? I mean, just insulting half of America?
You would think by now that the fact that the article devotes half its criticism toward the left might have been absorbed by Gutfeld. And there is no debate whatever about the substance of the piece. Then this:
GUTFELD: The ultimate hypocrisy here, Kimberly, is that Sullivan is calling critics dumb when, in fact, he is the most obsessed critic of Sarah Palin's children.
GUILFOYLE: Remember that?
GUTFELD: I don't want to get into it. He's got an amazing blind spot.
GUILFOYLE: Yes, and talking about her children. I mean, it's totally inappropriate. And he has no credibility because of that. That's what's so problematic about it. In fact, how do you expect this magazine to have any kind of credibility either when you have writers putting forth stuff like this? With the background that he does. Leftist propaganda.
Where to start? Hypocrisy? How? Have I not been forthright about my last pregnancy? Criticism of Palin's children? Nope. Skepticism toward Palin's loopy stories about her last pregnancy. But they won't go into that. The facts might unsettle their readers. Then the undertone of homophobia – "amazing blind spot." And then the refusal to address the substance of the essay at all, because I have no credibility as a journalist – because I asked a candidate for president for evidence of a major campaign story-line and bizarre story in her book.
And I am the propagandist.
