Welcome Back, SpitzerPosted on Apr 6, 2009
So, Matt Lauer busted right out of the gates with the sex-scandal questions in his interview with Eliot Spitzer on Monday’s “Today” show, taking far too much time to extract mea culpas from the fallen former New York governor before getting to the better part of the program, during which Spitzer holds forth about the economy. Here’s a taste of what he had to say about certain recent recipients of hefty government funding: “If they’re too big to fail, break them up.” MSNBC: Visit msnbc.com for Breaking News, World News, and News about the Economy Advertisement Previous item: Veteran Regulator Calls Geithner a Failure Next item: Bachmann Alarmed About ‘Re-Education Camps’ for America’s Kids New and Improved CommentsIf you have trouble leaving a comment, review this help page.

Matt Lauer is ‘moral inquisitor’ for our day and age? Oh mommy! Wonder what ‘sour’ Lauer’s got hiding in his closet. Lauer isn’t fit to kiss Spitzer’s posterior. Fawning fake-ass lop!
Report thisSpitzer sinned! So what? Spitzer isn’t a war criminal. Nope he is NOT! Spitzer’s real sin was shaking the House Of Wall Street.
How come Lawrence Summers still has his head?
Matt Lauer? Edward R. Murrow would bitch-slap Lauer’s punk ass in a New York minute.
Samosamo is absolutely correct. “Justice is a joke…”! America is chained with smarmy lickspittles that pass as mainstream journalists and that is to our shame.

Hold it right there; little Eliot has to atone to Kermit Eady/Larry Barton of the Black United Fund for destroying that organization. Eady/Barton used the dues check-off to raise funds to benefit a black job bank, purchase real estate, create a credit union, etc. I will not allow a fake liberal website to allow scum like Spitzer back into mainstream society. Remember Spitzer didn’t say shit while Wall Street and investment banks were up to crimes while he was NYS Attporney General.

We can’t get Eliot Spitzer back into politics fast enough. High time a little antitrust/corporate responsibility enforcement mojo gets back into the mix. Guess it’s too much to hope that Obama will create a place for Spitzer to put a bit of stick about, as the Brits like to say.

You’re so right. I am surprise little duckie lauer didn’t bring up the monica lewinsky episode for comparison. matt lauer isn’t into real journalism much less investigative reporting, only how well HE comes across on camera and how well he ‘talks down’ to his subjects. I realize the importance to get ‘progressive’ ideas and such out to the msm audience but just like the dems in campaign mode 2008, refuse to let people like lauer or wolf blitzer do an interview, they will not interview for issues and reality, only sordid BS.

So Matt Lauer wasted the 3:25 on b.s. yellow journalism non-sense! The truth is that this is one of the few people that might have been in a position to punish the abusers on W.S.! Sptizer is right if the banks are “too big to fail” then they are “too big to exist”!

I thought it was a political lynching and it had many democrats marching in the Yankee Doodle Band…
Report thisThere is nothing like a republican for lurking around and peeping into bedrooms.
I guess their sexlife is fed purely on fantasies of others.

Typical of ‘modern faux journalism’. More attention, questions wasted trying to find out some useless information about what a $4000. whore feels like in orgasm. Cripes! No wonder america is the laughing stock of the world.
Report thisAnd spitzer is side lined long enough for cases of import that would have been exposed to light of day about the crooked assholes robbing this country blind. Definitely a case of small potatoes for a whore versus millions of people being raped by those ‘elite’ criminals hiding behind false or no accountability. Justice is a joke, the statue of liberty is an oxymoron and congress fiddles as the country takes a nose dive, but, hey, those ‘elite’ are safe and protected.
