First of all Ann Coulter is one of the most polarizing people in today’s political society. Anything that comes out of her mouth has the possibility to be taken as racist, sexist, or just plain condescending. Now don’t get me wrong I am in no way defending Coulter, I just feel that in today’s society, the media does a good job of twisting and paraphrasing comments made by people, in order to turn their so called comments into stories.
During this interview, the host of this show, Donny Deutsch does a great job of winding Ann Coulter up, asking general questions about politics. She rambles on until she stumbles upon religion specifically that all people in the United States should be Christians. This struck a nerve with the host because he stated he was a Jew. She goes on to say that Christianity is a progression of Judaism, a “FedEx” version.
To the everyday viewer, I don’t believe that her comments would have much effect on. However all sorts of pro Judaism groups I’m sure were outraged. These type of groups wait for people to slip up in the media and then attack the person. Overall I don’t think this particular interview will have much effect on Ann Coulter, if anything it will make her even more popular to her constituents. Most people regardless of political leaning expect Coulter to say things like this, because at the end of the day that is why she is getting paid large amounts of money to do.
