Ziegler Discusses Palin Response On MSNBC
Radio talk show host John Ziegler appeared on MSNBC to discuss his interview with Gov. Sarah Palin, in which she responds to a verbal attack from "Late Show" host David Letterman. Ziegler hit MSNBC for it's pro-Obama bias, causing the ire of MSNBC'er Contessa Brewer. Brewer, a woman, did not seem to be offended by Letterman's "slutty" remark. At the end of the interview, Brewer was so agitated with Ziegler that she requested his microphone be turned off. UPDATE: John Ziegler tells Real Clear Politics that MSNBC played a trick on him right before he was set to go on air. Ziegler was originally supposed to be interviewed by Norah O'Donnell, an anchor he has had dust-ups with in the past. However, O'Donnell was reassigned to "breaking news" dealing with FIAT. Ziegler says it was "clear Norah O'Donnell ducked" him. "It was part of why I handled it the way I did," Ziegler says. "She was clearly afraid of doing an interview with me," he added. John Ziegler hosts a radio show on KGIL-AM in Southern California.
