But one network insider claims it was the book&#8217;s theme &#8212; a brutal examination of liberal bias in the new era &#8212; that got executives to dis-invite the controversialist.  &quot;We are just not interested in anyone so highly critical of President-elect Obama, right now,&quot; a TODAY insider reveals. &quot;It&#8217;s such a downer. It&#8217;s just not the time, and it&#8217;s not what our audience wants, either.&quot;  For the book, Coulter reportedly received the most-lucrative advance ever paid to a conservative author.  The TODAY show eagerly invited the author months ago, for her first network interview on GUILTY.  The exclusive was to air during the show&#8217;s 7 AM hour. The cut came Monday afternoon.  Coulter was also to appear on the TODAY&#8217;s fourth hour. A host even teased the segment saying the &#8216;conservative pit bull and bestselling author&#8217; would be a guest.  NBC&#8217;s cable outlet, MSNBC, will also become a Coulter-free zone, insiders explain.&quot;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dcgadfly.blogspot.com\/2009\/01\/ann-coulters-jewish-problem.html\">Evan Gahr writes<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p>&gt;Coulter is never at a loss for words but the &quot;Today Show&quot; could ask Coulter about some matters that would leave her genuinely uncomfortable. &nbsp; For example, how can someone who is unmarried and childless defend family values against liberals?<\/p>\n<p>The &quot;Today Show&quot; should also ask Coulter what she says about Jews behind closed doors. It&#8217;s an open secret in conservative circles that Coulter indulges anti-Semitism.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Conservative apostate David Brock, &nbsp;in his 2002 &nbsp;memoir\/apologia, &nbsp;Blinded by the Right, says that Coulter regularly made anti-Semitic comments to him. She also did to Weekly Standard founder John Podhoretz when they dated.<\/p>\n<p>Podhoretz &nbsp;and Coulter don&#8217;t say otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>Coulter did not respond to this reporter&#8217;s repeated email inquiries about Brock&#8217;s charge. &nbsp;Podhoretz said it&#8217;s &quot;none of your business.&quot; &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, Coulter pals around with conservative writer <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lukeford.net\/profiles\/profiles\/joseph_sobran.htm\">Joe Sobran<\/a>, who was fired by National Review after years of anti-Semitic and anti-Israel invective. &nbsp;Coulter even wrote the introduction to one of her books.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Instead of trying to silence Coulter the NJDC should challenge her to a debate. &nbsp;Sunlight is the best disinfectant&#8211;especially for Coulter&#8217;s stench of anti-Semitism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Matt Drudge reports: &quot;Coulter was set to unveil her new book, GUILTY.
