Ms. Trotta is also an author.

After today, I suspect she is not going to like many of the comments associated with her books at sites like Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, etc.

Complain to the FCC--and then turn off FoxNews. Every time you watch and are outraged, Rupert profits. Eyeballs are eyeballs--that's all he wants.

I haven't had a TV since January and I'm still up to date on the latest on-screen gaffes.

Note that this isn't a big story, though Hillary's questionable reason for saying something vague, is.

Done- thanks for the links.

I've compiled a list of links here:

Don't forget to recommend if you think the list is worth reaching more people.

This cannot be limited to Liz.

FOX is responsible for the content of its show. The producer of that segement must be fired. FOX alowed that comment to go out on the "airways".

Shouldn't we be complaining about Hillary and her surrogates this weekend trying to justify her insane comments?

I get your drift about the evil Trotta though-thanks for the link.

Here's interesting stuff from HuffPost:

"...We have seen a return this year to the politics of delegitimation by the extreme Republican right. Yet what has been most surprising is the complicity, and then the open participation in that process by the Clinton campaign. Race was always going to be an element in this year's election. But the comparison of the front runner Barack Obama to the marginal candidate Jesse Jackson on the pretext that both had won South Carolina was a shocker when people heard it come out of the mouth of Bill Clinton. Again, the talk, by Hillary Clinton and her operatives after Ohio, of "the commander in chief test" which (it was said) she and John McCain had "passed" but Obama mysteriously could not pass, was a second stroke of the same kind. There was no scientific or political content to the statement. Its significance was gestural. It was an effort to delegitimate Obama, and its truth could only be shown by its success or failure.

Hillary Clinton's recent careless-careful mention of the assassination of Robert Kennedy, in answer to a question about why she would stay in the Democratic race when all the numbers are against her, raised the tactics of delegitimation to a pitch as weird as anything the Clintons can have seen in the years 1997-98.

The most disturbing element of her remark was this: that it chose to treat assassination as just one more political possibility, one of the things that happen in our politics, like hecklers, lobbyists, and forced resignations. The slovenly morale and callousness of such a released fantasy is catching. So when, a few days later, the Fox News contributor Liz Trotta was asked her opinion of Senator Clinton's statement, Trotta said: "some are reading [it] as a suggestion that somebody knock off Osama...Obama. Well...both if we could!" Liz Trotta laughed as she said that. Later, she apologized, as Senator Clinton also has apologized..."
