Summary: Ann is like a conservative Mike Moore
Review: I like sharp, witty rhetoric and Ann can sure deliver. Like Moore she is a hard-edged partisan fire-breather. Unlike Moore she actually has researched her book and, shall we say, "liberally" uses footnotes to document her views whereas Moore merely cut and pasted from liberal web-sites. Those on the left will hate this just as the conservatives hated Al Franken's and Michael Moore's works but for style and research Ann's book is a winner and a fun read.

Summary: Coulter the cool counter liberal
Review: Annie tells it the way it is and the truth is really upsetting the liberals who gave us the wow reviews on moores' stupid book. Anne is a constitutional lawyer, studied the Clinton administration and has written several books other than this one. This book points out point by point the bias that exists in all of the media, done by innuendo, ad hominem attacks, flat out name calling. Buy it, you won't regret it. You will never watch the alphabet networks the same way again. Her pointing out the blathering Rather confessing he loves Hilary and Bill is worth the price.

Summary: Important Theme
Review: Reviewers seem to be missing the point of Ms.Coulter's argument, which she supports with ample documentation. She accuses liberals of "tu quoque" attacks which ignore the substance of conservative positions. By tarring conservatives as racists, "far-right extremists", etc., liberals have, in an atmosphere of political correctness, not been called to defend their positions rationally. Since 9/11 more Americans are questioning the assumptions of the left, and Ms. Coulter's book frightens and angers the liberal establishment because it resonates with emerging mainstream conservative sentiment. It is a fun read; the former editor of the U. Michigan Law Review is not afraid of a fight, but she has her facts straight. The negative reaction to her book is precisely based on the problem the book illuminates.

Summary: Fantastic revealing of liberal bias
Review: This is a great book. Ann coulter should get a pulitzer prize for her attempt at showing how deep the leftist liberal bias is inbedded in mainstream American media. All liberals who can think for themselves need to read this book. Conservatives already know how Dan Blather, Katie, Peter, and almost all the others, are attempting to brainwash viewers and spread their leftist propaganda. For crying out loud, ABC hiring a liberal Clintoon hack to be a 'broadcaster'? The liberal bias is so blatant, that Ann Coulter had an easy job finding it. The work was to write it down and find an unbiased book publisher to print it. A must read. Watch the bias as she is introduced on television to talk about her book. She's introduced always as 'right wing', or 'conservative'. Does anyone remember Hillary and her book? Remember any media host's introducing her as left wing? Liberal?
Of course not! The obvious media slander and bias is shown thoughout this book with a twist of humor although it would be tragedy if it continued without someone like Ann to expose it. The Democrats have been exposed for once. Watch them squirm. I hope all libraries in America order 25 copies to have on hand for Americans to learn the truth.

Summary: They Said What???
Review: The truth! What struck me most about this book was that it was not just a diatribe on the left in Coulter's own words. This is classic Coulter-she uses the left's own words as weapons. She doesn't even use that many of her own opinions in the book... she just quotes what liberals say about conservatives. This book should be required reading for everyone in America. It is an eyeopener that will be taken very seriously. It has the potential to change the way that all Americans view the opinions of politicians, anchors, and pundits. A MUST READ!

Summary: Ann tells it like it is...
Review: A great deal at twice the price. By all means spend your hard-earned money, you won't be sorry. Ms. Coulter sheds much 'light' with very little 'drivel' on the true nature of liberals and their extremely strident views. Don't waste your time with 'tedious' left-wing hatchet jobs, this is the real deal. Much fodder for any freethinking individual.

Summary: Its About Time
Review: Wow! What a great book! Its about time someone had the courage to stand up to the tide of liberalism that seems to flood our airwaves. If Ann Coulter had not done such a terrific job at footnoting every single shred of proof that shows a liberal bias does exist, this would have been just another book, and truly unbelievable at that. However, with the obvious research and links of unbelievable quotes to their owners, there should no longer be any argument about if there is a liberal bias in the media. Ann Coulter won hands down! It will be interesting to see if television personalities change their ways now that the American Public will be on the lookout for anything that ditracts from a fair and balanced perspective. Great Book, recommend it to everyone!

Summary: A stunning indictment of the modern media......
Review: One word comes to mind to describe Ann Coulter's writing style: pithy.
This book successfully describes in brilliant detail the day-to-day numbing of public opinion by a few powerful media types in New York City that control all of the news we as citizens receive and govern our lives by.
I agree completely with her analysis of the NY Times as a bastion of left-wing reactionism, and outright hatred for the current President Bush. For example, terms like "enormous Bush tax cut that caused the deficits we now face..." that isn't news, that's commentary! Yet the Times will say that in their straight stories, not the editorials only.
Her take on Katie Couric and the Today show is right on the money, how they, in their own perky morning way, try and slant stories towards a Leftist point of view time and time again.
A work like this is especially important now, when our country faces the imminent threat of attack and we are relying on the media to give us the straight story and not advance a political agenda or try and pull down our President.
Hopefully, this will have the effect of raising the awareness of enough people in this country to realize we shouldn't just accept the gutless reactionism of left-wing media types.
Go get 'em Ann!!!!

Summary: A must read for liberals and conservatives!
Review: Ever wanted to call out a liberal on one of their illogical positions, be it social or fiscal? Ann Coulter not only brings out the truth in the liberal media slant but makes delicious arguments based totally on well-documented FACTS. Sure, there's a good degree of spin; remember, Ann has NEVER pretended to be an "objective journalist". She, like Rush Limbaugh is a proud Republican and makes no attempts to ever hide that fact and that they're both conservative analysts and commontators. She uncovers the deception in the media as those with the liberal agenda hide behind their "objectivity" and says "B.S.!" So, Ann is perfectly able to deliver her opinion from well researched point of view instead of from mere passion. There is much entertainment and humor value in this novel; you'll laugh one page and be surprised the next. Ann is unpredictable as she can switch off the sexy charm and whip out the venom in lightning speed, which is what makes her so dangerous and feared by liberals. This is great work!

Summary: I laughed until I cried
Review: I received this book from Amazon the day of publication (6/25/2002) having pre-ordered it. Once I got it I couldn't put it down, and I was laughing so much my wife moved to another bedroom for the night. There is humor everywhere in this book (sample chapter heading ' 'The Joy of Arguing with Liberals: 'You're Stupid!''). Coulter is certainly funny, but she is also brilliant (law degree from U. Michigan, then clerked for a federal appeals court ' a job offered to only the best and brightest law grads) and her insights on this country's recent political history are fresh. Even better, every example of liberals' conduct she cites is footnoted, so there can be no question as to authenticity (and some of the items are so outrageous one would expect them to be fabrications). Even some of the footnotes are good reading, and I enjoyed reading them along with the chapter to which they refer. Liberals have had hegemony over the media for so long that they have gotten lazy. They don't have any original ideas and don't have to meet conservatives' substantive ideas (school vouchers, Strategic Defense Initiative, welfare reform, flat tax, privatizing social security, to name a few) on the merits to be covered. They can just label Republicans 'dumb' and their ideas 'stupid' and their remarks still get broadcast and covered. Coulter proves this over and over. Liberals should read this book (perhaps getting it at the library to avoid paying royalties :>)) if only so they can avoid the bad rhetorical habits that so many on the left have adopted. In these times above all, we need honest debate in our public discourse -- not name-calling, fear, envy and race-mongering.
