Fox and Friends’ Carlson warns McClellan: He ‘better not have any skeletons in his closet.’
This morning, Fox and Friends discussed former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan’s tell-all book above a chyron reading “Lack of Credibility.” Co-host Gretchen Carlson warned that McClellan’s “skeletons” would be exposed now that he has “betrayed” the president:
CARLSON: Scott McClellan better not have any skeletons in his closet. I hope he didn’t do anything that he doesn’t want the world to know about because we all have, and all of his secrets are going to be coming out.
Watch it:
Appearing on Fox’s Hannity and Colmes last night, conservative strategist Mary Matalin said, “To quote my husband recently, this is Judas on steroids.”

Was that a threat? This is the legacy of Cheney - swift and terrible retribution against any who are perceived disloyal to “the family.” This isn’t our government - it’s The Sopranos.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:25 amlol, talk about skeletons in the closet…
republicans LOVE closets…. shhh, dont tell.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:25 amWhen are they just going to name Faux NoNooz as the OFFICIALLY licensed propaganda outlet and get rid of Dana Purina?

- - Fitting, for a president on the co-caaaaaine.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:26 amWTF is the supposed “press” doing threatening McClellan for, rather than asking for an interview?
May 29th, 2008 at 10:30 amOh, yeah, this is the Republican Propaganda Channel, not the “press”.
Since when did news channels switch from reporting the news to threatening people? Oh, of course, since FOX News was born!
May 29th, 2008 at 10:30 amthis stupid idiot is complaining about skeletons in closet. they all have them! If they didn’t all have them, would we be in the global mess we’re in???
May 29th, 2008 at 10:31 amSpeaking of skeletons, Gretchen Carlson is the worst known impression of a Barbie doll.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:32 amshe’s not a Barbie doll, she’s a Bushie doll
May 29th, 2008 at 10:34 amso like, he’s dishing out Bush’s absentmindedness in regards to his cocaine years and she blatantly detours the topic to Scotty’s possible skeleton’s. Wow, mommy, when I grow up, I want to be a sicere and honest news anchor like her!- NOT!
May 29th, 2008 at 10:38 amGretchen sounds like she’s a Corleone, not a Carlson.

May 29th, 2008 at 10:42 amLet’s be realistic. The ‘Liberal Media’ did such a great job of detailing W’s Drunk Driving, National Guard Desertio…er Service Record, Drug Use, Failed Businesses, and Drug Use, among other things. Now the ‘Liberal Media’ is going to protect the Nation by revealing the secrets of this arch-villain, Scott McClellan. Let’s hear it for the ‘Liberal Media’! (crickets chirping)
May 29th, 2008 at 10:42 amImpeach Cheney and Bush and Save the Constitution!
Abu Ben Hussein Leporello.
Ike Skelton is in Gretchen’s ‘closet’?
WTF?
I’m embarassed to admit she’s from MN, and a former ‘Beauty Queen’. Threats from news organizations is surely reflective of the sad state of American media. Owned lock, stock & barrel by rich wingnuts with furtive agendas.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:43 amWhy is it that when I hear, “all of his secrets are going to be coming out”, I think warrantless wiretapping’?
May 29th, 2008 at 10:44 amI have to admit, after 8 years of living under the Bush Regime, I have Schedenfreude about this stuff… I am happy to watch them cannibalize themselves in a self-destructive descent. It’s an utterly appropriate justice appetizer for everything they have done to us.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:45 amWow.
The right wing response thus far to Scotty’s book actually ENHANCED it’s credibiity:
Whenever the Administration and its cronies are caught in a lie or deceit they ALWAYS engage in character assination against the accuser. ALWAYS.
Besides, Scotty isn’t doing himself any favors by his criticisms–he can surely forget about the usual right-wing welfare jobs the loyalists always get.
Plenty of us have known for from the get-go that the WH was conducting a propoganda war with cpress complicity first from from simple deduction and later on from obvious evidence. Scotty isn;t saying anything “new” per se, but the fact that he’s saying it all is what matters, and the more louder the Right protests, the more veracity they impart to Scotty’s claims.
Note also the chyron here reads Bush-bashing when in fact it should be PRESS BASHING. Typical straw man argument.
And yeah that’s a threat alright.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:47 amJudas on steriods would better describe Cheney, dontchathink?
May 29th, 2008 at 10:48 amthanks CitiDC, little jimmy/jeff weighs in… funny!
meanwhile gretchen misses this memo from rupert.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:48 amIn my life I have never seen a pack of people across the media and political spectrum go out of their way to defend the worst of the worst. What McClellan states is quite true –views we’ve always held. And though I can’t hold McClellan in much higher esteem, this exposes further the warped gang mentality among these mutants, unfortunately holding key positions of influence.
If colleges did away entirely with legacy admissions and special consideration for athletes, etc. we wouldn’t have this problem.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:49 amWell, someone should tell Gretchen that over 80% of the public already know bushbaby is a good for nothing, ignorant, lying,know-nothing.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:49 amI mean when your approval rating is at 19%, even some faux people know whats up(finally).takecare tony and guidedog Lido
The “Lack of Credibility” is in all the right-wing pundits and conservative commentators. They have not one piece of evidence to back up all the name calling and threats. I like how it’s okay for them to lie to the public every other day and twist a quote to serve their agenda. But when someone comes out with the truth they start a campaign to desimate someone’s character.
I’m not saying that Scott McClellan had ultraistic motives. I do believe he is doing this for the money and he still is in many ways sticking up for members of this administration. If he really had a conscious this would have happened along time ago.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:49 amWe agree on this particular skeleton, CitiDC @ 12. Whether it’s true or not is irrelevant. Homosexuality hints/outright accusations are an old Rovian tactic, tried & true. If McC doesn’t start backpedalling, they’ll try to use it to shut him up IMHO.
They should watch it, though, with that line of attack from Gannon or others- Scottie McC may have some choice ammo of his own to fight back with…
May 29th, 2008 at 10:51 amDo they really NEED to?
May 29th, 2008 at 10:54 amYes now we have threats and overt ones at that. This is just like watching a pretty good movie. The bushies are showing some desperation. These are the same charges that they have had to deal with over and over, and regardless of your opinion of Scottie, this book has caused the bushies some serious grief.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:55 amBTW, McClellan will be on C-Span’s Washington Journal on Friday, May 30 at 7:30 a.m. (ET). Be sure to call in and ask him about Jeff Gannon or whatever else you fancy.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:55 am“We all do (have skeletons in our closet) …”
Really, then why don’t you shut your piehole instead of threatening somebody else with theirs. Next to “bimbo” in the dictionary is this woman’s face.
May 29th, 2008 at 10:56 amAppearing on Fox’s Hannity and Colmes last night, conservative strategist Mary Matalin said, “To quote my husband recently, this is Judas on steroids.”
It matters little to these people whether or not McClellan’s allegations are actually true, only that he was disloyal. Of course their “loyalty” should be to the constitution and the people they were empowered to serve but that concept doesn’t get much traction in the Bush White House.

May 29th, 2008 at 10:57 amSo tell us Gretch, what good does exposing Scotty’s skeletons do for the Chimp? Scotty was a Texas loyalist from way back who followed the boy king to D.C., not some short term off the street hire. The more you dredge up the more you make the (p)resident look (even more) like a clown who can’t even pick a good press flack.

May 29th, 2008 at 10:59 amWell if McClellan or anybody has skeletons in their closet, that goes for you too Gretchen, the White House has it all in their file thanks to all the illegal wiretapping thanks to those telecoms. And you, Gretchen, have the nerve to threaten somebody with those details. Godfreakin’blessdumberica.

Colleges and universities need to think more about the student body they’re shaping. Crazy propagandists and capitalist, or progressives? It’s all in their hands.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:00 amThis is why Colin Powell quietly walked away. The Corleones have warned them all.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:03 am“Judas on steroids”. So she’s admitting that she believes Bush is Christ. Mary’s husband has some explaining to do as well on this one.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:04 amAm I missing something? The chorus from the media wingnuts calling to string up McClellan is truly amazing. Carlson, Matalin, et al, are so accustomed to defending this criminal administration that they do so even when their defense is essentially admitting the administration is criminal.
They don’t seem to be saying that this administration is completely WYSIWYG, their actions have all been legal and honorable, and that Scott is making stuff up to sell a book. So what ARE they saying, exactly? That it’s OK to lie your way into a war and that the only villain here is a former member of the club who’s now breaking ranks? That violating international law was OK? That deliberately deceiving the American people was OK? Would they be so adamant in their defense if it had been Bill Clinton’s administration?
It boggles my mind that the moral compasses of so many people have gone completely haywire.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:05 amI think Gretchen is the ugliest name you could give a person.
Fitting for Ms. Carlson, though!

“I can say without fear of contradiction, that I knew Scott better than any other White House correspondent or Washington reporter.”Scott, We Hardly Knew Ye, May 28, Jeffgannon.com.
Good catch, CitiDC!
Though I know what you are getting at here, Gannon’s words imply something else that helps substantiate McLellan’s charges of a complicit press, viz:
How would Jeff Gannon, who wrote for an overwhelming ignored blog, be able to say “without fear of contradiction” that he knew Scott better than say David Gregory or Les Kinsolving or any of the other “real” reporters?
How could he say that, unless he had at least equal if not better access to Scott than anyone else, despite his pathetic professional ‘qualifications’?
It was obvious from the start that Gannon was a shill for the White House, and I’d say he’s accidentally admitting that by this statement and thus is confirming Scotty’s claims of press complicity and a WH propaganda machine.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:05 am“Gretchen Carlson,” like all Fox anchors, is an animatronic media brown shirt. At the end of its shift, it walks into a special closet, goes into standby mode, and awaits its orders for the next day. “Steve Doocy” and “Neil Cavuto” rest in identical closets immediately adjacent to hers.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:10 am“Yeah, the team is composed of Chris Wallace, Carl Cameron, Brit Hume, Charles Krauthammer, Fred Barnes, and John Gibson.”

Scott, We Hardly Knew Ye, May 28, Jeffgannon.com.
Well, if Gannon outs McClellan, Scotty can just write another book. This one will be about Karl Rove, Ken Mehlman, Lindsay Graham, Charlie Christ, David Dreier, and who knows who else?
May 29th, 2008 at 11:15 amJason Linkin from The Huffington Post:
CNN’s congressional correspondent Jessica Yellin, appearing on last night’s Anderson Cooper 360 as a part of a panel discussing Scott McClellan’s new book, What Happened, admitted that during the run-up to war, “the press corps was under enormous pressure from corporate executives, frankly, to make sure that this was a war that was presented in a way that was consistent with the patriotic fever in the nation and the president’s high approval ratings.”
And my own experience at the White House was that, the higher the president’s approval ratings, the more pressure I had from news executives — and I was not at this network at the time — but the more pressure I had from news executives to put on positive stories about the president.
and you’d think she wasn’t a Bushie doll

May 29th, 2008 at 11:17 amhigh approval ratings. that’s what this war is about. Not about Freedom, not about combating terrorism, and deffinitely not about Holy War. (oh, and oil, I almost forgot.)
May 29th, 2008 at 11:17 amGreat Americans these rightwingnuts. Shoot the messenger not the administration that lied us into war, caused hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths, sacrificed the precious lives of our troops dead, injured or emotionally traumatized, and pushed us into enormous debt robbing us of the power and integrity we once had as a nation. Like McClellan is the only evidence of these criminal activities.
Stick a flag pin on it and make it all go away like the good little fascists you neocons are.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:24 amF*(k you Gretchen.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:28 amI saw a “Watergate Reunion” on C-SPAN last weekend or the week before, and John Dean expressed a similar sentiment about the Nixon adminstration.
Not really a coincidence that BushCo has been lousy with Nixon people from the start. For some reason, the stigma of Nixon made these guys more appealing to George W. Bush.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:28 amSee, I think we should find compassion for the Scottster.

May 29th, 2008 at 11:36 amIt is amusing how blatant it is. Like they think everyone is still stoned on the same old koolaide.
I don’t think Carlson is posing a threat. I think she’s stating the obvious. This is a significant blow to Bush backers. They are going to be working to answer, what they see as a betrayal of loyalty.
For me, McClellen’s charge is much more damning than something like the Downing Street memos. This is Bush’s own guy. Best case for Bush, is that it shows he can’t maintain loyalty. Worst case, it’s an additional, significant claim, that he was cherry picking information to dishonestly sell the war. It’s significance is due to the access to the information that McClellan had as press secretary. He’s either got a hughe score to settle or a very heavy consequence. Either way, it’s bad for Bush.
Again, I don’t think Gretchen is posing a threat, I think she’s stating the obvious. Regardless of McClellen’s motivations, he’s painted a bullseye on his chest.
I’m not justifying it. But, I think that’s the reality.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:43 amconsequence was supposed to be conscience.
May 29th, 2008 at 11:45 amGretchen the following is about and for you!
May 29th, 2008 at 11:50 am“Watch that Fox News or CNN Newscaster. Besides dressing and putting on make-up like a prostitute (which in a way, she is) she just reeks of insincerity. She doesn’t care if she’s telling the truth or not. All she cares about is her career and being on TV. She,and thousands like her,contaminate the airwaves on your TV nightly. They don’t care about the truth. They only care about their job; and carrying on a facade that they are important. They are the lowest of the low.These are fake plastic people living in a make-believe plastic world. To expect them to tell the truth is like expecting men to bear children; it’s not going to happen.”
“And now the public is waking up to the crimes and lies of the Bush Administration. Only a fool would expect that these sick examples of human perversion who make up our mass media would suddenly change their ways and begin to tell the truth.
I, for one, look forward to the day when these bastards get what they deserve: And that is to be an unrecognizable no-body out on the street begging for a job.”

Really Gretchen? What are your secrets?
We can generally trust the Cap’n to frame things in the best perspective possible for Republicans, and explain to us how they’re not really so bad.
May 29th, 2008 at 12:24 pmSo, CappyMan, how would you feel if someone said that they were going to be exposing all of YOUR secrets on national television…?
Um, ah…threatened, perhaps…?
May 29th, 2008 at 12:32 pmI don’t think Carlson is posing a threat. I think she’s stating the obvious. This is a significant blow to Bush backers. They are going to be working to answer, what they see as a betrayal of loyalty.
Right, because “loyalty” to TRAITORS and WAR CRIMINALS makes the one “loyal” a TRAITOR and WAR CRIMINAL.
And Carlson is hardly a “journalist”.
Could you IMAGING someone like Walter Cronkite, Howard K. Smith, Eric Sevareid, Edwin Neumann, etc. saying what Carlson did?
Nope, only PROPAGANDA outlets like Murdoch’s Fox “news”, etc., would feel they have a right to THREATEN McClellan…
May 29th, 2008 at 12:41 pmArn brings up a good point. There was a time when the news was more professional and would observe a certain amount of decorum, thus refraining from pointing out a possible threat to a person, which could exacerbate said threat.
With the advent of “cable news” churning trash 24/7, they have to sink to new levels for “ratings”. It goes back to greed and the money. So why is it so bad for Scotty to be makin’ some money, he’s a Republican after all.

May 29th, 2008 at 1:02 pmSod off, Fox.
May 29th, 2008 at 1:03 pmSo the bobble head puppet girl wants to smear Scott some more for daring to speak the truth that we all knew anyway. Expect Faux News to get a whole staff trying dig up dirt on the guy. Under orders from the White House of course. Smear and Fear is all they have on the right.

And this is SOOOOO bad for the Republicans, his attempt was particularly lame, even for someone so naive.
May 29th, 2008 at 1:14 pmTheir desperation means one thing - Scotty hit the nail on the head, and HARD. The threats are something the Repukian Criminals use to keep their kind in line with the party propaganda, a pure Bush/Cheney trait.
Thank you FAUX for keeping this in the media, it only gets worse for the Bush Crime Family and republicans in general, everyone except the Bushbots see this for what it is, and it isn’t looking too good for you traitors.
May 29th, 2008 at 1:51 pmThere is a difference in defending one’s self from a political attack and just plain extortion. It would be appropriate to go through McClellan’s past and bring up any incidents that would legitimately bear upon his credibility. Conflicts of interest, personal animosity, sharp policy disagreements and so forth. However, this is thuggery. Note what was said:
In other words, cross the Bush administration and they will come after you. They will attempt to destroy you even though it does not directly relate to the issues before the public. Remember Valerie Plame? Same deal but now to one of their own. When will we see the rest of the press jump on this. In particular, is FOX News promoting that it will do the hatchet job?
May 29th, 2008 at 1:58 pmIf I where Scott I wouldn’t cross the street against a light or clean my firearm alone at night. These would be but a few of the precautions I would take if I were him.
May 29th, 2008 at 2:13 pmI believe Ms. Carlson is the same idiot that also responded to a comment about Hillary “gulping,” by asking something like …you mean, you could see her Adam’s Apple move?” No brainiac, that one.
May 29th, 2008 at 2:28 pmI bet Gretchen has some skeletons in her closet…ones with flesh on their ribs, very much alive and willing to pay her for sex. She’s nothing but a Murdoch tramp, empty between the ears but lots where it really doesnt matter.
May 29th, 2008 at 2:51 pmInteresting. Secrets such as who Jeff Gannon was servicing…errr…visiting in the White House?
May 29th, 2008 at 4:40 pmUsually I watch FOX Noise about 10-15 min a day, and like clockwork in the first 5 min I hear Gretchen make an ass of herself. For example, early today one of the guest pointed out a criticism that FOX was had ‘right leaning’ coverage (the understatement of the year), Gretchen piped up, “Oh, well not this election season! Everyone is saying FOX coverage is the most “fair and balanced” reporting available”.
I pretty much fell out of my chair. Are you f@cking kidding me? She must be living in some bizarro world where up is down, and down is up. It’s clear that if she ever came up with an original thought, like a time paradox, the universe would likely end instantaneously.
In my opinion these guys are just as culpable as Cheny, Rove, Addington, etc., but they are in total denial. Its like watching some sick serial killer explain why murdering his victims was for their own good.
So what will FOX do when more info comes out, and more people uncover the BushCo cover-ups, lies, and illegal acts? Well, what they always do. Count on the fact they will never be called out for anything, spin it like they were the only “unbiased” reporters of the day, and are guilt free. They will never admit to assisting BushCo, and deny, deny, deny. At best they will claim they were “used” and “manipulated” like every one else. It makes me sick.
I applaud Kieth Olberman for doing his part, I only wish other news outlets would follow his lead and call out FOX News for what it is, a general output of unfiltered right-wing propaganda. But when does this kind of stuff become criminal? After how many soldiers and civilians lives are lost? Why can the media just say, “oops we got in wrong, sorry that 100k people died”. Please tell me that there is a way to fix this.
May 29th, 2008 at 5:38 pmIt’s great to know what the “Sad Couple of the Decade” think.
May 29th, 2008 at 8:31 pmIt’s amazing to watch the piranhas all turn in unison to attack one of their own. Amazing that it doesn’t seem to matter how long you have been their friend. They will attack you as viciously as if you were an undercover CIA agent outed by Bush and Cheney.
Cross them and they will expose all the skeletons in your closet, even if they have to drag those skeletons there in the first place.
This overreaction to a book is very telling in and of itself. If they are so bored and it isn’t a big issue, why are they all parroting the same talking points and making such a big deal about the book? Why aren’t they attacking any individual points in the book? They aren’t saying any of the book isn’t true, if you notice, just that the entire book as a work is somehow tainted with liberalism.
They are going to make an example out of Scotty in order to try to prevent others from coming forward and telling the truth.
May 30th, 2008 at 1:04 amHow can they say he has a lack of credibility WHEN HE WAS THERE!?!?! So he says things the right doesn’t like and now he’s a liar? They’re so afraid of someone criticizing them, it’s crazy. They’re like children who are upset because someone said something bad about their mom or something.
