These people need to get out more. Its a tongue ring for Christ Sake!!!!!
That was cool and taboo in 1995. Its not a big deal. I bet 3 out of 5 teenagers ages 14 and up have one.
GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gale Storm

she was so ET

by the way, i've seen hannah's piercings. they're not pretty. can we say turkey?

Maybe its this simple... Maybe Hannah Storm is not the professional journalist she thinks she is.... Nothing more relevant to ask comes to her mind than some B.S. question about a tongue stud huh....pa-the-tic.. given the stakes on the line these days..

Maybe Hannah needs to get a gig on entertainment tonight... I hear they're all about that fluff shit.....JD

One wonders if Hannah Storm has a master's degree in journalism or in the art of asking incredibly banal questions. If only Ms. Storm had half the intellectual acumen that Mrs. Kucinich possesses. Another example of the dumbing down of the American media.

Hannah's ignorance and benightedness was more than repugnant. It was frightening. We have a president giggling maniacally about World War III, a presidential candidate addressing that threat with earnestness, and Hannah is dedicated to trivializing him... ugh!

Sarkosy had the right idea. Simply get up and walk away when the dumbed down, borderline retarded media insist on asking stupid, trivial questions. Too bad Kucinich didn't do the same.

However, let's keep this in mind: These are morning "news" shows. I'm sure right after Kucinich was finished, Hannah simply shifted over to cover fall fashions and holiday cooking secrets.

Frist??
Hannah learned her questioning technique from Timmeh the UFOhole

Stupid questions.... omg.

This reminds me of the time 'OBAMA IS A SMOKER! OF CIGARETTES!' was all over the 'news'.

These people know nothing of journalism. They are fear and smear idiots who belong on page 16 of the Inquirer, not on a national news show.

Also: Ms. Kucinich is freakin hot.

You're kidding!? Hannah Storm is a 'Professional Woman Anchor'?

Moonves pays her for this crap?

He and she deserve to be thrown out on their asses

Jesus Christ on a stick that talking head is as dumb as a f'ing post.

God, what a vapid TV bimbo. Our media is so god damned embarrassing.

Well, that's our MSM. No substance at all.

I really didn't know that Elizabeth is so educated, experienced, and that she's British! Never heard her speak before. Well done.

That was reminiscent of my first (and hopefully only) experience at a Star Trek convention, where the guest speaker Nichelle Nichols was asked stupid, stupid questions about her and William Shatner kissing in one episode. Hannah Storm, will you get a life?!! Will your network get one too?!!

J.C. @ 23:

On the plus side, she at least restrained herself from asking about the UFO. That would have really sent this "interview" into the toilet.

Personally, I think Kucinich kind of stuck his foot in it on this one.

I've seen UFOs. Several of them at once hovering over our cars. It was an incredible experience unlike anything else I've ever seen.

BUT, if I were running for president.... uh, I'd keep that under my hat. It just doesn't play well.

How can this country continue to function when it's the dumb leading the dumber?

At some point, the US house of cards will fall.

I'm sick of the caste system. The Kucinich family are treated like shit while the media does puff pieces on repub women like Laura Bush

Now there is a phrase I would like to hear more often asked of stupid reporters with stupid questions.

"Are you serious!?"

Paul at 16 - Congratulations! You've won the "Highest Post Number Who Thought He Was Frist" award - no need to hang your head in shame! But you might want to look into more memory for you computer.

Paul @ 17:

(hangs head in shame for the frist attempt)

As well you should.

"The Kuciniches are to be commended for politely telling her, in so many words, to stuff it".

Nope. They're should be scolded for being too damn polite.

"Does the tongue ring pick up UFO signals?"

Paul Says: (hangs head in shame for the frist attempt)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

lol, maybe next time.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DickCheneyShotMeInTheFace Says: “Hannah Storm” is such a porno name.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was thinking perhaps Ms. Storm wanted to see it for her own reasons. (not that there's anything wrong with that :)

Space Coyote @ 46:

"Does the tongue ring pick up UFO signals?"

OMFG that was funny. Zing!!

Samson- @ 49:

the fact that the media attempts to embarrass, belittle, mock and humiliate him only shows that he scares the corporate establishment to the core.

They do this to Edwards too - that "Breck Girl" crap. Since the media seems to have already annointed Hillary as the Dem nominee, they have no problem belittling anyone else in the field, really.

Dennis and Elizabeth are great, they handle the idiocy of our national media with grace...But if we had any truth in what our media was doing Hannah would have just asked "can I just say the word 'shit' over and over again during our interview?" - that's about the quality of her questions, she should be ashamed of herself!

Ugh. That's what passes for a serious interview? I could give a rat's patooie if she's 3 decades younger; she's a helluva lot more accomplished than many women twice her age.

Thank you, Mr. Kucinich, for validating your life partner without inserting one iota of paternalism or patronization.

OT:Speaking of stupidity....I tried, yes I truly did try, to watch Faux Noise Brit
Hummmmm Report this evening; but after less than 5 minutes I was so angry
that I turned it off. Brit was reporting on "how well things are going in Iraq"
and his primary basis: The fact that the number of Iraqis attempting to enter
Syria has reduced substantially.
What a fool Brit is; that or he has his head up his ass. Within last two weeks,
as reported in the NYT, Wall Street Journal, NY Post, Washington Post and other
print media, Syria has officially shut down/closed it borders to ALL Iraqis citizens
attempting to gain entry into that Country..and in fact, has imposed a new regulation whereby those estimated 1.4 million Iraqis already within Syria MUST
return to Iraq and seek new 3 month visas if they want to remain within Syria.
I have never, never in my lifetime seen such dishonesty/misinformation and just
plain LIES as those reported on Faux Noise. That channel is a complete disgrace
when it comes to journalism and is most certainly not fair and balanced.

Look, this is problematic. However, as much as the daily show ``FLILF'' interview amused me last week, was that a reasonable thing to put forward for Mrs. Kucinich? I agree that a Daily Show `reporter' has a different set of standards than one for CBS News, but isn't that a little problematic also?

DigDug @ 15:

Kucinich is my favorite for president, and he was back in 2004 as well. But... I'm afraid crap like this probably does hurt him. 30 years younger definitely makes it look like she's in it for the money, which reflects poorly on both of them in some people's minds.

Personally I don't think it matters, but enough people will.

I think this couple would work miracles for our country. Unfortunately the people of this country aren't smart enough to elect them. I wish I could be more optimistic.

Whoever becomes the repug nominee may well have a young wife as well.

Cmon, it's TV.

You expect more?

Matthews, OReily, etc. Circuses all.

I'm so sick of this librul media!

joe cantwell @ 59:

my note to cbs:

Hannah Storm's interview this morning Dennis and Elizabeth Kucinich was incredibly stupid and disrespectful. How far broadcast journalism has fallen!

i've stopped watching this show as well as gma and the today show. they're just more bricks on the road to idiocracy.

Last time I watched any of those shows were back in the day I was waiting for my school bus to arrive, over twenty years ago. These shows never appealed to me.

I'll vote for Dennis before I'd vote for Hillary.

if only we could see real news programs. in south america, europe, mexico the news is dealt with in the main by intelligent journalists, not blonde bimbos and they talk about issues, not tongue rings and britney spears.
the internet and some publications are the only source of news now in the u.s. even pbs has been watered down by accepting gov't money. thanks to bill moyers for coming back out of retirement because of his dismay on lack of journalism in media.
too bad we don't have a fairness doctrine anymore. now the stupid can't stumble on facts occasionally

Every time I see and hear this man, the more impressed I am. America and and the World would be a more safe place of the Kucinichs got into the Whitehouse. What's it gonna take to get Dennis on the ticket??!

I'm a little disappointed to Dennis' response to meeting with Ahmadinejad. What he should have said is that you can't conduct foreign policy by acting like a spoiled 5 year old and refusing to talk to your enemies. True statesmen act like adults, not demagogues.

below_me @ 9:

Dennis will host a live, nationwide conference call on Monday, November 5th, beginning at about 7:30 p.m. (Eastern Time), to announce what will be happening in the House of Representatives this week regarding the Cheney impeachment resolution – and to ask for your help.
The call-in number is (641) 715-3300. When the operator asks for an access code, key in 324341#. The call is open to all interested citizens.

I just called in to the conference call with Dennis and was informed it is full!! I hope that's a good sign of people getting interested and listening!!

She ain't no kinda gold digger...
Denny Kucinich be a broke, er, dude...

Maybe Hannah can ask Laura Bush how many botox treatments she has had next time she is on.

I'm surprised she didn't ask if Elizabeth had any tats to go along with that tongue stud.

Hannah, did the labotomy leave a scar? And if so, can we see it?

Don't vote for Dennis BECAUSE:

He's short!
He said the word IMPEACHMENT!
His wife is younger than him, hot and has a tongue ring! *Gasp*

Does that about cover it? I swear, that Hannah Storm made me feel like I was watching TRL.

Gore/Kucinich/Obama/Big Bird/Anyone but a ReThug '08

You wouldn't see this drivel on Al Jazeera English!

I love the way Storm appeared incredulous and pointedly skeptical that anyone would support diplomacy and/or talking. I take it then that the attack on Iran is inevitable? Sweet Georgia Brown.

You gotta love Dennis Kucinich. He's single in 2004 and the media picks on him for being a short, eccentric little guy and then he comes back in 2007 with this young, smoking hot 30 year old wife. Way to go Dennis!

Hannah: "Can we see it?" Translation: I'm glad nobody know I wear a vibrating butt plug all day!

Elizabeth: "No you can't sorry." Translation: this bitch must be wearing a vibrating butt plug!

HAnnah Storm. I need to remember that name. It's helpful to avoid assholes.

While she's at it, why doesn't she ask her to make out w/him on camera?
She went to the ITT Tech School of Journalism...

iraqconcilable @ 101:

Isn't it obvious that the MSM believes it knows what's best for America and it isn't Kucinich or Ron Paul ? Look at the absolute bullshit questions that these two have to put up with in debates and interviews . Hannah Storm and Tim Russert aren't morons for asking this crap. They're simply doing what they are told .

I agree. Our democratic process in this country has been bought and sold.
