Is Nancy Grace the most repellent, disgusting person in show business?

No. She shut the fuck up as soon as the A.G. declared them innocent.

Yes, no doubt.

If I may be so bold as to reference American Dad: Looking at you, Nancy, I doubt I could eat the amount I want to vomit.

KKK versus Phred comes to mind (in that if you’re less popular than the KKK, you’ve got some thinking to do). But would you rather save a grand wizard or Dick? Nancy or Phred? Decision, decision.

Yes. I think she earns spots 2 through 5 as well. In that if you broke her into 5 people, who were each 1/5 as awful as she is, they would be ranked as the 5 most vile people in ‘show business.’

Either there’s more stereotypical bad-sense-of-the-phrase “trailer park people” than we thought there were, or the ugly truth is that among us “mainstream” people, looking and sounding just like us in casual interaction, walk a large number who have been touched by both the Dark Side and the Stupid Side. Because if she didn’t deliver the numbers, CNN would have been rid of this hate-crazed freak long ago.

I think it’s a bell graph kind of thing where for every person on the one end who hates her there’s another person at the other end of the scale who loves her, with the vast majority either ignoring her or only vaguely aware of her existence. CNN probably regards every person who hates her as just one more fan for its advertisers.

It’s amazing how few viewers it takes to make a successful cable show. So far as I’ve been able to determine, her highest rated show was after Caylee Anthony’s body was found and that was only 2.5 million viewers…out of a country of over 200 million adults! So only 1 in 100 people were watching her at highest point…a number I think we can safely identify as “outliers”. As the Jerry Springer show proved, there is always an audience for humanity at its lowest.

Breaking News folks. Bombshell in the courtroom today. The judge had indigestion and the defense didn’t recognize it. Let’s turn to our expert from Timbucktoo who once applied to a medical school and see what he thinks…

Yes, yes she is.

I am good letting them all burn and saving myself.

Quoted for truth, man!!

I can’t fully put into words how much I despise that woman.

“If he thinks he’s getting off on an insanity plea, he’s crazy!”

My mom would have loved her. Mom would have seen her behavior as “telling it like it is”. I think a lot of old ladies feel that way about her. They see her as a “tough broad” who doesn’t back down. It’s something that’s hard to understand unless you grew up in an era when women were expected to be quiet and let the menfolks talk.

I’m almost glad mom died before Nancy came on TV. We would have had problems.

Jane Velez Mitchell is almost as bad.

The problem is that Raid Roach Spray does not work on TV screens.

From the day after the charges were dropped on the Duke lacrosse kids:

Quite possibly my favorite Daily Show clip of all time.

In descending order:

1 (t): Phelps
1 (t): Grace
3: KKK
4: Carrot Top
5: Dick (I’m sure I laughed once or twice at him in Newsradio. I never laughed at anything CT did.)

Oh, and that’s just one of several cases she got wrong and showed absolutely no remorse for. Another is the Elizabeth Smart case where she pretty much convicted a man named Richard Ricci on Larry King for her abduction, and it was found later that he had absolutely nothing to do with the case. I can’t find the original source of the quote, but I posted in an old Dope thread about it:

And further:

And then there’s the whole Runaway Bride saga, where Nancy was so absolutely sure there’s no such thing as a “runaway bride” and that the boyfriend was somehow involved in some foul play, given partly the telling evidence than he hired an attorney! gasp

There are not enough :rolleyes: in the world for her. And yet we reward this behavior. Ugh.

I couldn’t finish watching that Nancy Grace clip about Japanese radiation - I despised her already, but I didn’t realize (fool that I am) that she was also responsible for perpetuating junk science, another of my pet peeves. Of course she is; why wouldn’t a piece of shit like her dabble in dangerously misleading people about scientific things, too? She’s pretty much a perfect storm of despicableness.

The Daily Show link for those of us not in the US. Jon Stewart, I salute you. (It paused a lot the first time through, but played okay on replay.)

Nah, I’d have to say Rachel Maddow is the most disgusting snail trail in news.
