Related: About this forumMSNBC.....Tamron Hall Handed Someone Their Ass Back on A Silver Platter
Jimmy Williams is on with Tamron Hall along with a guy name Tim discussing Mitt Romneys past and relevance to the campaign today they show a clip of Mitt the other day in Colorado when Mitt was asked about marijuana.
This Tim guy accuses Tamron of creating a bigger story than it deserved and Tamron essentially tell him you are in my house and you knew the topics so don't try and tell me we trapped you or you did not know the topics being discussed.... and then cut his mic..
Oh those who support Mitt it is going to be a long campaign... If it wasn't for Mitt living in a Alter World I think he would just drop out...

(11,641 posts)Nice to see a news person stand their ground and not take any BS. The dude tried to pull a Newt and act all aghast that CNN was making this an issue and it blew up in his face.
Good for Tamron.

(1 post)I only wish I had seen this on TV....I needed to get the full effect
I listened to this interview on XM and I could hear this guy getting out of order from the beginning, with the "So called womens inequality issue" Well by the time Tamron was done with him, I know he wished he could start this day all over again. Finally somebody put one of these a**holes in place.
I just don't understand the audacity of some people.

(41,832 posts)She really got steamed when he seemed to say that the "war on women" was frivolous. It was downhill from there.
She was great.

(32,084 posts)She has taken a lesson from Ed Schultz, it appears. It's her show, and she's doing it on her terms, with none of the GOP mealy-mouthed changing of subjects. Good for her!

(15,682 posts)I guess I must have found it after I replied to yours because I see my name all over it.
It really was a thing of beauty, wasn't it? I've been half expecting to hear that she's lost her job over it, though. I sincerely hope that doesn't happen

(4,741 posts)I just happened to see it this afternoon. Tamron Hall did a wonderful job from letting that hack make his, nothing to do with the question she asked, point. Too bad some of the other so-called reporters that are part of the NBC/Universal family i.e., Chuckie Todd and toady David Gregory, could learn a thing or two or three from Tamron Hall. You go girl!!!

(37,326 posts)to cut the guy's mic for "disagreeing" with her. I say that's BS. He didn't just disagree with her. He disrespected her.
