LL Cool J vs. Fox News, Sarah Palin
Posted: Mar 31, 2010
Fox News has an unlikely adversary: rapper LL Cool J.
After the network announced that Sarah Palin would host a special Thursday called "Real American Stories" — featuring an interview with LL Cool J, among other celebrities — the rapper hit back on Twitter claiming they were lying.
"Fox lifted an old interview I gave in 2008 to someone else & are misrepresenting to the public in order to promote Sarah Palins Show. WOW," he tweeted.
Fox News responded Wednesday morning, saying they would cut the footage of LL Cool J (aka James Todd Smith) from the special.
"Real American Stories features uplifting tales about overcoming adversity and we believe Mr. Smith's interview fit that criteria," a network spokesperson told TVNewser. "However, as it appears that Mr. Smith does not want to be associated with a program that could serve as an inspiration to others, we are cutting his interview from the special and wish him the best with his fledgling acting career."
"If someone at Fox News Channel wishes you well, watch your back," the AP's David Bauder wrote in 2006. "The seemingly benign sentiment is a creative signature of Fox's public relations, usually accompanied by a kneecapping. It's something like a kiss from a Mafia don."
"Real American Stories" airs Thursday at 10PM (in place of "On the Record with Greta van Susteren) and will re-air on Sunday at 9PM.
Is there no level that Fox is not willing to stoop? I guess Sarah needed her token to make her show seem "diverse". What a joke . . . He already serves as an inspiration to many people, just by all the charitable work he does . . . it's nice to see his integrity . . . and class
