Ann Coulter Shutting down chatroom at end of the month

According to her site, since so much interaction is happening on Twitter, it's been decided to close the chat and go exclusively in the Twitter format. Probably couldn't find anyone who wanted to keep shoveling the daily piles of shit that were deposited there.

Like anyone in the news "entertainment" business, whether on the right or left, they have their day, publish a few books, make millions off people who can't afford it, and then get replaced by the next great pundit.

Most of those "bestsellers" were bulk buys. Koch used to buy them by the thousands and give them out as favors at the rubber chicken fundraising dinners.

The NYT bestseller list changed their criteria to annotate bulk buys once they figured out that so much schlock and dreck floating to the top wasn't as a result of individual reader sales.

Now the site says: "Remember that bit about the site closing? Well, never mind. An anonymous conservative patriot has stepped forward to ensure this place stays open & vital. Your posts will remain, the name will remain and the address won’t change so no need to update your bookmarks. It is in the best interests of all that this site continues to grow and spread a conservative message. We apologize for the heart stopping theatrics and promise to behave ourselves moving forward."

When you can't trust Ann Coulter to tell the truth, who can you trust (hint: just about anyone else).
