Conservative scarecrow Ann Coulter insists she was banned by NBC, and to prove it, she accepted the network’s invitation to appear on air. Wait a second! The ban, like so much of what Coulter talks about, seems to exist only in her head and the pages of the Drudge Report.

As Media Matters points out, Coulter’s latest book attacks those evil liberals for pretending to be victims, so it’s possible this is a kind of performance art.

But now that we know Coulter isn’t banned, we can’t help wondering, why not?
