Greta Van Susteren will always be the OJ Simpson trial reporter to me. I guess Iā€™ll always associate her with a ā€œsensationalismā€ school of journalism. And honestly, itā€™s her body, and sheā€™s free to do what she wants with it, but shit that face surgery looks so phony. It is distractingly so. ---

> [@Corry\_El](#): > > If the point is ā€˜well voting for Trump got them GOP control and Ryan et al trying to steer the agendaā€™ thatā€™s completely valid, but a lot of people arenā€™t political enough to see it that way. I think Van Susteren may fit in that category. Itā€™s one thing if someone who doesnā€™t really follow politics thinks that way. But a news reporter should understand this. Plus, while Trump didnā€™t run far to the right on all issues, he did run a thoroughly right of center campaign. Even his strongman stuff is an appeal to conservative values, not liberal ones. Plus, someone who shills for Trump while also being thoroughly aware of how immoral he is (as he didnā€™t even try to hide it) is being a rather shitty person, in my opinion. Especially when there were still other choices for the Republicans. And I believe duplicitous people who change their opinions based on what will make them more popular are kinda shitty. Itā€™s one of the legitimate criticisms towards Clinton and how she would change to suit what was necessary. It made her inauthentic and effectively a liar, even if Trump is an even bigger one. ---

All kidding aside, when I first saw her I assumed sheā€™d had a stroke or some kind if birth defect. Do we know whatā€™s actually wrong with her face (for lack of a better phrase)? Her looks have nothing to do with her abilities and I feel kind of bad mentioning it here but since itā€™ been brought up . . . . ---

I usually catch at least part of GRETA! on MSNBC on Sirius on my drive home ā€¦ and Iā€™ve said for months that I canā€™t stand her. Sheā€™s just not a good interviewer or moderator. She has some ok viewpoints, especially around the legal side of things, but Iā€™d much rather listen to anyone else (except Chris Matthews). Happy thisā€™ll get someone better! (Hopefully not Megan Kelly) ---

> [@DummyGladHands](#): > > I canā€™t watch anyone who speaks without moving her mouth. Interesting username/post combo. Are you a ventriloquist? I had thought just because she came from Fox, she was a right wing shill. But she seems pretty straight to me. However, there is just something about her that I find unwatchable. The face? The voice? Iā€™m not sure. I second Megyn Kelly for the ambivalid treatment. She is without question the hottest news babe of all time, but Iā€™m not happy that she gave air time to Alex Fucking Jones.
