Friday Factor
I’m guest-hosting tonight for The O’Reilly Factor. Tune in at 8pm Eastern. Some good, meaty topics: Hazleton PA and the anti-illegal immigration ordinance ruling, a discussion of the “Scott Thomas” case and Iraq war reporting with milbloggers J.D. Johannes and Jeff Emanuel, and PETA vs. Michael Vick, among others.
Yes, there will be a Lindsay Lohan segment. Don’t blame me. You can always use it to take a bathroom break.

Welcome to ‘The Malkin Factor’. Liberals, run and hide….. she is fierce!
That’s okay Michelle, your guest host days are usually good relief from the tabloid stuff. Its very refreshing. Plus you’ll be covering Beauchamp, which needs to be mainstreamed.
LOL, Michelle. You should hold your middle knuckle out as a sign that you are doing the segment against your will during the Lohan bit… like that CLASSIC photo of the serviceman posing with Hillary holding his knuckle out…that would be sweet. Heh.
Please ask the question;
“When are our borders going to be secured; time/date?”
Don’t take a vague response or the stall tactic as an answer PLEASE!
None of that …well, in about 6 months we’ll start…….
Cannot wait to watch!
Wow! Sounds like a good show. I’ll toon in. Bill who?
Nothing on the Koreans, but we get a Lindsey Lohan segment? I know you don’t control all the content, but that is sad.
Otherwise, looks like another good one.
why doesn’t anyone seem to care about Lindsey Lohan and her little outfits?!?!
I’ll be watching. Any gossip or rumors out there whether Judicial Watch would consider this worthy of their involvement to help or advise with the appeal by the City of Hazleton? They are the only ones I can see with the clout to help them out.
Lindsay Lohan why? I mean it has been covered more then it warrants already. Monica Crowley made this her entire blog for the last couple of days. I never can figure out why, when it is news with any substance, the subject is reduced to the crawl and the tabloid is up top. It would be great to see it flipped just once.
Imus is supposed to be close to a settlement with Moonves but Moonves wants to match any offer- the story today, in the New York Post. That is like entertainment news. I want to know where Imus is going to land, some say he is putting feelers out to Clear Channel, and others, I hope he simulcast again. Imus wants back on the air. I think the sooner the better.
I will be watching, you are mine and my in-laws favorite, unfortunately my husband thinks Anne Coulter, is the Bomb. He just isn’t right about Anne Coulter.
Why nothing on Alberto Gonzalez? Our top law enforcement officer repeatedly lying to Congress. Oh, wait Lindsay is more important. Who are your guests Paris Hilton and Nichole Richie?
There we go, had to add the bolded text.
I can’t wait to hear what J.D. has to say about Pvt Joker.
Michelle:
Are you going to get your own show on FNS?
Boot Geraldo. Perfect spot for your show:
“Hot Air Weekend with Michelle Malkin”
I’ll be there, steaks on the grill, bottle of Valpolicella…
My favorite 8 o’clock hour of the summer week!
Something good to watch tonight after all, I love to watch Michelle hand Liberals their butts. Great to watch the facts of an issue trump feelings behind their fragile point of view.
We have to send some compliments or kudos to Fox C/O O’Reilly to let them know how much we enjoy MM filling in for O’Reilly. That said, we also have to be careful not to go so overboard that he feels threatened - the man’s ego surpasses the circumference of the planet. Let him think that MM is his protege. At least he had the foresight to see MM’s talent and wisdom and how it would enhance his shows. Look forward to every show.
Funny, most men I’ve talked to think that MM is the bomb - and feel totally threatened by, or seriously dislike, Coulter. I adore Coulter, in small doses, but wish she’d tamp it down just a tad.
Hey did anyone see this story from Breibart.com?
I think we need to keep track of advertisers, too, and let them know we support their businesses and sponsorship of Fox News.
Don’t forget the paper shredder!
Umm, MikeB, can you not read. Loha_ is out of her control. When you get as good as Michelle, maybe Bill O’ will give you time and you can do your MM hate speech and you AG story then.
Bwaaahhaaa, I crack myself up. MikeB getting some air time on Bill O’ and the ratings go down to below Olb-dork with his 12 viewers.
Knock ‘em dead Michelle. Great way to start a weekend!
“So, Lindsey Lohan’s publicist, what do you think about the Korean missionaries threatened with execution by the Taliban?”
I dare you!
#19, I agree…I show support by purchasing their products or services . However, I seriously doubt advertisers who are interested in profits will listen to DKos or their ilk. FOX reaches too many people, even the people who watch it because they hate it.
My nightly schedule is for once going to permit me to see “The Malkin Factor!” And it’s Friday! A Two-Fer: Woo-hoo!
When is Michelle getting her own show?
Michelle: It would be interesting to have you do a review of the various experiments being proposed or enacted at State and local levels to control illegal immigration. Forget the fence for a moment, Hazelton, PA. Loudoun, VA, Prince William, VA, and Arizona and possible others are trying different approaches to curtailing illegal immigration. This could be contrast with the idiotic New Haven, CT activity.
Just remember this, Fox’s owner, Mr. Murdoch is a huge Hillary contributor.
By the way, I agree that the constant sensational celebrity coverage of Lohan, Hilton, and some of these other meaningless bimbettes is distracting, - and it reflects a real laziness on the part of the news media. The O’Reilly Factor is getting distracted from real issues by a bunch of silliness, and I watch the Factor for real news analysis. Time to tighten the ship.
Michelle, you should talk about Ace’s informant getting canned. I think its a valid question, and the media is embargoing that part of the story. He just posted about it, you should check it out.
You definitely need to stick the Korean hostage crisis in there somewhere…
Re FOX advertisers….the only problem Kos and Company will have with their campaign is that Home Depot advertises to a “spend market”…PERIOD. What is KOS offering Home Depot? A free subscription? Bring it on. Money talks and KOS lives in a dream world.
MikeB -
Rupert Murdoch, owner of Fox News, is a huge Hillary Clinton contributor?!
Wow!
I read somewhere that Rupert Murdoch is also very chummy with Communist China… do you know if this is true?
Capt read it and weep:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2007/07/16/hillary-clinton-shuns-fox_n_56495.html
Why aren’t you conservatives calling for a boycott of Fox News? Does MM endorse Hillary too?
Again, I’m hearing circus music. Seems to be really pervasive today.
MM-
Please try to mention the Korean hostages….
Click the link PBoiler–both Rupert and son gave to Hillary.
I couldn’t care less who Murdoch gives money too. He could be the biggest liberal in the world but at least he’s got enough business sense to know that conservatives want an unbiased source of news and we aren’t going to get it anywhere else on television except Fox News. For that I am grateful. MikeB, your super-candidates, Hillary and Obama look more like hipocrites every day talking down about Fox News and yet embracing the man responsible for the very existence of the Fox News “right wing conspiracy”. In the end the Democrats care more about the money then their supposed “principle” of Fox’s biased…and that speaks volumes!
Yes, the Korean hostages need some media focus.
While talking about the Iraq war please pose this question….Does the “patriotic” dissention amongst the dems bolster the jihadists and if so doesnt that mean that their so called “patriotic duty” to speak against the war ends up killing Americans and innocent Iraqis? In other words…If Murtha, Durbin, Reid, Pelosi, Kennedy, etc, etc….open thier mouths do our sons and daughters die? I say unequivocally YES
MM,
I am sure you have it all together, most of us are here to support ya.
Give’um hell kid!

FEED THE TROLL AND WATCH HIM GROW
Ahhhhh, Friday night, Michelle Hosting Factor at 5:00 and a Game on at 6:00.
Is America great or what?!!!
I sent Bill an e-mail regarding his latest web-site poll “none of the above” would be the only vote I would consider but that choice wasn’t available, so… I pulled an Obama (no vote)
Blue:
Murdoch and Hillary were made for each other politically.
As liberal as we think she is, she’d actually be considered a conservative in England where the “conservatives” love the welfare state as much as liberals here.
His giving to her campaign is understandable in that context.
#39 - Steaks are on, bottle breathing, veggies steaming. You’re so right, America on a Friday night is great.
oh wow. It is good to be alive when you talk like that. Sounds great, serve it up!
I watched the first half hour, but I don’t care to watch Whoopie Goldberg or Lindsey Lohan. Blech.
Murdoch is first and foremost a businessman. Businesspeople cannot be ideologues. They have to be pragmatists. Giving to her campaign is smart because if she wins, and has her enemies list, he might be lower on the list.
As for Michael Vick, I say let’s be patient and let the process work itself out.
Off to a dinner party. I tivoed you Double-M!
eric
Oh, and I tivoed Hannity as well, so nobody spoil the ending.
eric
http://www.blacktygrrrr.wordpress.com
Colmes and Pirro talking about Vick.
Yawn.
Concerning the Lohan segment, i’m kinda glad it was on but wish it was addressed a little differently. There is a cultural issue going on here that needs to be discussed more. when you have celebrities running around breaking laws and getting away with it. supposedly she was even ranting in the car to her three passengers how she can do whatever she wants and won’t get in trouble for it because she is a celebrity. and then blames the black kid. she sure knows how to work the system. i wish somebody would send a message to all these holier than though celebrities and send her ass to jail for a long time.
i’m starting to get tired of hearing Bill repeat that there were no WMD’s in Iraq. There were WMDs, ask the Kurds, we just don’t know if Saddam gave them to somebody else before the invasion or if he disposed of them long ago. Either way it perpetuates the myth that our ousting of saddam was unjustified and it gives anti-war advocates too much wiggle room when they bash bush and the war.
other than that, great show Michelle as always!
#43 - Oh my, unexpected company. Dinner was great, next time let us know when you’re going to be in town.
Seriously, great show. Low key, points made…but for the fluff stuff (and I do not mean MM). Please, somebody explain to me (feel free to use big words) what Bill is about these days? He’s downright silly at times. The love fests with Whoopi, let alone, Rosie. Then, when they turn on him he’ll be so offended. Like so many, he’s forgotten who brought him to the dance.
Great show Michelle. You’re the best, no doubt.
I dare say that you hosting the Friday Night Factor is even better than a Monday Night Football win for the Steelers. Thanks
I don’t know if anything is better than a steelers win…maybe a close second though… ; )
Nice job Michelle.
Bill is lucky to have you to fill in.
Awsome show MM. The wife says she likes the hair! Even with the Lohan stuff, it was a great show.
Good Show, but IMHO The NFL was taking this matter very serious before PETA and other groups started harrassing them. The NFL like them or not does a great job of policing within and is a fine organization.
Yes, but with Michelle, you know she never loses!
I spent my evening reading about how the City Planning Commisars of Berkeley California are going to move the auto dealers from auto row out to the west end of the city to make room for “dense fill” housing (code for taxpayer subsidized housing “units) for “blue collar workers who can’t afford to live in Berkeley but work in Berkeley.
Nice vision. The replanted car dealerships will displace a business that has been in the City forever and is ranked in the top 8 sales taxpayers in the area. This is “smart development” to fight “global warming” and it is coming to your city.
Would love to see a “Factor” show on this trendy taxpayer swindling scam headed up by none other than Albert Gore and the Global Warming Snake Oil Dealers of America.
OT: I like the Steelers when they arent playing the Niners or the Raiders. Back in the day I visited the Fair City every Thanksgiving and drank Iron City Beer until my marbles had rolled onto the flat side. There was a park near Shadyside where we’d go and roll down the grassy knoll to see who didn’t toss cookies by the time we hit bottom. The winner had to chug some “Crybaby Red”.
Lucky for me the only bar i ever see these days has got lettuce and tomato.

Why doesn’t Michelle have her own show? I only watch “The Factor” when she guest hosts.
Related to Fox News have you all seen this campaign to threaten it’s advertisers….
http://thecitytroll.blogspot.com/2007/07/bolsheviks-on-move.html
What a bunch of pathetic suckups.I feel ilke I am in “The View” audience
“Related to Fox News have you all seen this campaign to threaten it’s advertisers….”
Yeah, pretty unbelieveable stuff…hopefully a “strong” conservative somewhere will urge all Americans to punish companies that punish fox….don’t hold your breath though..I have yet to find a strong conservative willing to do anything.
Oh, I’m sad I missed it.
Does anyone think that Perhaps Michelle is being groomed for her own show?
That would be AWESOME!!!!
I don’t know about other parts of the country, but in east TN they rebroadcast all the Fox segments. I had to work during the 8pm segment but got to watch the 11pm with coffee in hand, feet propped up and enjoying MM smiling and deftly handling the show. Her hair was very nice tonight and her smile charming as ever. What a way to unwind from a long hard day fighting crime.
The only time I have ever agreed with PETA. I am a dog lover and I think we only got to see the tip of the iceburg where these dogs treatment is concerned, they probably couldn’t show the worse on TV.
Al Sharpton, insisted that Imus loose his whole way of making a living, radio and tv show. For saying Nappy Headed Ho, in the context of a joke, trying to parody hip hop…but Vick is going to loose his sponsors or they are suspending his endorsements, and I am supposed to feel sorry for him? He is going to get paid all this year for not playing football. Nice work if you can get it.
Imus didn’t even get investigated by the FCC, he broke no rules or laws in fact his contract with CBS encouraged him to be controversial and edgy. People say it isn’t fair to compare these two different issues. I say it points out the MSM double standards regarding treatment of people based on ethnicity. Vick is presumed innocent, until or otherwise found guilty. Imus got lynched.

Knowing what a ‘The View’ audience is like….. way more pathetic.

This person can’t figure out that if we watch Michelle, on tv we might also patronize her blog?
The View, I don’t ever watch The View this person seems to be an expert on the View.
Bolsheviks-on-the-move. Hmmm. Pretty brazen mindset. Who’d want to associate with that *LOST* cause? I wonder if they are getting funding from the Russian mobster Vladimir “I Can See it In My Eyes” Putin?
They should be crushed. Dissent is one thing. Overthrowing the US government is another. Not that I am a big government fan: I just wonder a) who would die first; and, b) who would control military arsenals and chemical stocks.

Enjoyed watching you last night as always, Michelle. I know you dreaded doing the Lohan piece, and it would have been okay for you to say “some of YOU do” in response to the other person saying “we love it”. No, we don’t.
I email everyone on Fox every time one of these silly twits gets themselves a headline, pleading with them not to hammer the non-story, every few minutes for the next week. They even have a panel about it. People can go to one of the entertainment programs or sites if they are interested in these idiots and their vacant lives.
I always enjoy a pleasant change in any routeen broadcast.You must twirl a penn,like O’Reiley does.
All,
Have a look at this they are planning on giving the new Fox Channel- FNC the Imus treatment. I have already commented on this, it is disturbing but not unexpected.
http://insidecable.blogsome.com/2007/07/28/moveonorg-vs-fnc/
The Fox people are crying all the way to the bank.
Whether or not eyeballs like or dislike what is happening on FNC, the meter counts just one thing: number of pairs of eyes viewing FNC.
CHA_CHING!!!!
Move on. org is planning a secondary boycott of the new FBC channel as I stated above, you can go to the article. They will use a media monitoring organization to do this, huh I wonder which one …not really I am being sarcastic. At which time they intend to collect information on all the advertizers and start a blitz campaign against this new channel’s sponsors. (A Secondary Boycott) Move on, wants to strangle FBC in it’s infancy, now you don’t think it will work or happen but this is what happened to Don Imus and they used it once before and they are planning on using it again. Media Matters was monitoring Don Imus for 2 years to catch a soundbite, they could use to get him off the air. Then they threatened the networks and when that looked like it might not be enough, they threatened the Network’s sponsors. The secondary boycott. Right now Move on, has Home Depot and Lowes, in their sights. I will stop buying from these two companys, if they cave in to this extortion.

This is very interesting also:
Fox Basher Claim: ‘I Posted’ Clinton Death Threat on BillOReilly.com!
I cannot consider Move on a Democrat- Liberal organization, they are anti Free Speech, this is Socialist behavior not American. What is Hillary Clinton’s position on Move on. I remember when Hillary Clinton’s book “Living History” was going to be distributed in China and the Chineses tried to edit what they didn’t like out of her book. Hillary insisted her Book be pulled, then to let any part of it be censored. I would like to know all of the Canidates for President of USA for 2008 position on FREE SPEECH. Have any of them been asked about this issue at all?
I seriously need to get cable again. I keep missing out on all of these opportunities to see you, Michelle. Although, the Ruby Tuesday I go to usually has Fox News on and I’ve caught the show there a few times. It’s just not the same when you have to read the closed captiions. Keep up the great work.
