It’s A Shame Tomi Lahren’s Barbie Doll Brand Of Conservatism Has A Platform

http://www.redstate.com/kimberly_ross/2016/10/25/tomi-lahrens-conservatism/

.....
Jamie Weinstein of The Daily Caller interviewed Tomi recently, and not only does she lack substance, but she also lacks conservatism. This is to be expected, though, for a teeny-bopper Trumpkin.

.......
When asked about her reading habits, she responded with the following:

I’m going to be honest with you, I’m not a reader. I don’t like to read long books. I like to read news. So I couldn’t tell you that there was a book that I read that changed my life. More so, I love to read news and I love to read commentary and I love to watch TV. I love to watch news. I’m a watcher and I’m a writer. A reader in the sense that I like to read news but I have a very short attention span, so sitting down with a book is very difficult for me.

..........
Vapid, unserious, and immature? Definitely. Her response to social issues is even more telling:

I always say I don’t care what you do, I just don’t want to pay for it. So I describe myself as fiscally conservative socially moderate and I will stick by that.
…Abortion is not one of those issues that is most important to me. I’m not one of those pro-lifers that is so adamant in their beliefs. Socially, I am far more moderate because I don’t think it has as many implications for the average American that’s just working to stay afloat right now. So socially I am more moderate and I do think most millennials tend to be.


................

And why was this young woman given her own show…twice? Because Republicans act an awful lot like Democrats and award the superficial. This shouldn’t surprise us.

Especially on the issue of abortion, Tomi Lahren is an absolute embarrassment to conservatism. Need to see what she said here, too? Here it is:

Abortion is not one of those issues that is most important to me. I’m not one of those pro-lifers that is so adamant in their beliefs. Socially, I am far more moderate because I don’t think it has as many implications for the average American that’s just working to stay afloat right now.

Tomi Lahren is 24 years old. She got a job hosting a TV show, on a national network, right out of college. Trust me, when I was getting out of college and looking for work in television as a meteorologist, on stations much smaller than that, I couldn't even get an interview... while women who weren't even qualified for the positions, but happened to look a lot like Tomi Lahren, got the positions. Watching them on my TV set was cringe-worthy. The few people from my graduating class and the one after who did get jobs easily were women; one of them (whose hair was light brown) was flatly told to dye her hair blonde.

Tomi Lahren got her job because of her looks. It's the cruel reality of the business.

Oh, yes, she considers Kim Kardashian one of her big inspirations and hates Dallas.

She wasn't always a Trumpkin. Earlier in the primary she posted very critical opinion videos of Trump. Wasn't until it was just Trump when she jumped on the Trump train.

Step away from the election itself however, and she has delivered some great messages. The one on Colin Kaepernick still has me rolling over laughing.

She seems to be angling for a job at Trump TV (see the link I posted above) so it doesn't surprise me. What does surprise me is how anti-Trump Glenn Beck still has her as an (apparently somewhat disgruntled) employee.

She started out at OANN (One America News Network) which is where some of her first video commentary's that wen viral came from...next thing I knew she was on The Blaze.  maybe she's angling for Megyn Kelly's seat when she jumps ship.

I worked with one female reporter that obliterated the 10 scale. Absolutely stunning girl. The best part was she had a brain to match the beauty. So you can imagine she didn't last long in the business. Management didn't want her doing serious news. they wanted her doing the entertainment stuff and were adamant about it. So she walked.

Always did like her.

Don't feel bad...the only time my face appeared on the silver screen was in the Bonus section of Atlas Shrugged, Part I.   :silly:

It's been so long since I looked at that 6 second clip, I don't remember the exact place within the 35 minute section of hundreds of people saying, "I am John Galt."

I was in the classic Nerds II Nerds in Paradise.  They were doing some B roll stuff late at night early AM at the Embassy Suites in Fort Lauderdale where I was staying.  I was hiding behind a potted palm and I think Booger poured his drink on me.

I believe AFI selected Nerds II as one of the top 30 films in history for both it's cinematography and poignant touching story line.

"It's the cruel reality of the business."

I haven't seen the surveys lately, but I would guess more males than females watch the news. Certainly, many couples watch the news together, but as far as really paying attention to the hardcore news, according to a number of surveys men are far more likely to watch hardcore news while women are more interested the human interest-type news.
How does that relate to good-looking, less competent females being hired over males? I think men like to see good-looking women on tv over men. It might be as simple as that. I don't know about female preferences, but if I'm going to watch someone read the news, it doesn't hurt if it's a good-looking female. That might be betraying my sex by hurting the job prospects of people like you, but there it is. I'm just a male chauvinist pig who likes to see attractive women on the tube.
Incidentally, I hope you get a good job in your preferred field if you already haven't done so.

I was never in a movie or tv show, but I was once on a calendar in the mid 80's...Not like that, it was a Girl Scouts calendar and I was like 10 or so.

I was in some stadium crowd shots for "Any Given Sunday", you wouldn't believe it took them about 2-3 weeks to film that one stupid part where their Miami Sharks play the Knights... Go Knights! I got extra pay for those days, each on separate checks that came in the mail, weird.

It was funny when our little crowd got bored and started singing TV theme songs like Giligan's Island and they had to tell us to shut up.
