Video: Megyn Kelly rips CBC columnist for comparing Palin to “white trash,” porn stars

(Hot Air) - Blogs were all over this 10 days ago, but better late than never. Here’s Heather Mallick’s column on Palin if you missed it at the time; it’s the single nastiest attack on her you’ll find this side of Salon. Bear that in mind as David Warren — who’s a conservative and who agrees with Kelly about the filthiness of Mallick’s smears, do note — explains that Mallick’s only saying publicly what his Enlightened pals in the Canadian media are saying privately. Unlike our own media, of course.

Note to Megyn: I don’t know who told you that Canadians have freedom of speech, but it’s time to get a new fact-checker. Exit quotation from National Post columnist Barbara Kay: “Mallick is a national embarrassment that we all have to pay for. I have found my election issue.”
