Actually, what I think is kind of sad is holding up this deranged women for ridicule on television and then labelling it as news.
I mean, I obviously dislike what she is saying, but there was not an interview there.

Whoa! That was pretty strange...
It's beyond me how anyone could worship such a hateful God as their version of the deity seems to be.

Don't pay much attention to the Phelps clan. Now that their pissing off the whole country by picketing the funerals of U.S. soldiers instead of just prominent gays, they've pretty much relegated themselves to nut status for eternity.
I don't know if they get FOX News up there Jenny, but holding up guests for ridicule on their commentary shows is what they do on that channel. Its just that usually the guest is someone with a liberal line of thinking, not an extreme right wack job like Ms. Phelps or her ilk.Originally Posted by Jenny
Who knows, maybe this segment was about making them look "fair and balanced".

the "news" wasn't the one deranged lady, it was the group (they call themselves a church, but i think cult would be a more appropriate term) who is going to funerals of soldiers with signs saying "thank god for dead soldiers" and spewing hate against gay people, and saying that people who died during 9/11 deserved to die because they are sinners, and that it was God's punishment because we are a nation of sinners.
i will admit the interview with the lady representing the church turned out to be more of an attack on her. but i'd say that these people showing up at funerals is newsworthy, don't most big protests or rallies and things like that make the news? how would you feel if that was your father or brother's funeral?
as the news guy pointed out, soldiers fought and died for the freedom for her to say these things. she has the right to say what she wants but to congregate at a memorial service when people are trying to mourn and pay their respects is pretty fucked up in my book.

i hadn't heard of them before, just thought it was interesting.

My husband is a solider who has been to iraq twice i lived at fort stewart and saw the walk of heros where they plant a tree for every solidr that has died in this war from the 3rd id that clip just about tore my heart out. If those idoits so much as came near me with there signs of hate and igronce i would be in jail i would totaly flip out. If my husband were to pass away and they showed up I would stop the furnaral until they left i would not have my husband disrespected like that. what a totaly sick wack job.
jenny...i think it is a big deal when she is harrassing the familys at FUNERALS of soldiers who gave their lives for our country. thats what needs to be stopped and im glad they are making a big deal out of it...my 2 cousins are in the army and id be pissed if that crazy ass lady came over there while we were having their funeral and started all that chaos.
krchabb...i completly see where your coming from...i would do the same thing if it were either one of my cousins at that funeral





Sean actually had her on his radio show for a longer interview and he was being as polite as he could to her to just ask her a few questions but the challenge is (as seen in the video) she just rants and rants and rants and never answers a straight question. It's hard to hold a legitimate interview with someone who refuses to be interviewed.

I agree. But that is hardly a surprise. I mean they are group of crackpots. Their numbers are insignificant, and the personal feelings of the few families they personally torment notwithstanding, it is not news that there are crackpots. They are completely insignificant and nobody is planning on "interviewing" them in the classic sense - that is to explicate views on anything. I mean, we all know what she is going to do and we are none of use surprised when she does it, right?Originally Posted by DancerWealth

Actually, that's not true. While they only number 100 "members" or less, they are extremely vocal in their crackpot beliefs. There aren't just isolated cases of them protesting, they're doing it a LOT and have attended a lot of funerals so far. If it were only one or two, that's one thing, but I think they've played their little game in a few dozen funerals so far around the country. While their membership is insignificant, their effects are not and that's what makes it newsworthy. By putting them on TV the way they did, they show to the world exactly who they are and what they are. They can explain that their hatred transcends the military but also to homosexuals, Jews, Catholics, etc. The best way to prove that someone is a lunatic is to let them stand up and declare it in front of the whole world, which is what Hannity & Colmes did.Originally Posted by Jenny

Ehhh - I get what you are saying, however I think that this is a borderline case even for the actual story, let alone the interview. And, last time I checked, journalists were not (ideally) meant to be proving that anyone was a crackpot. As for exposing them to the world, I think that could be adequately done without the "interview" that they performed.
On the other hand - obviously the people in question are not complaining. They welcome this kind of publicity and probably don't even understand it as negative. I'm not arguing that they are victims, more that this is the journalistic equivalent of rubbernecking.

Arg. I dunno if that makes it better or worse.
