Richard Wolffe just said the Queen is "not an iPod person" but the English "expert" said she already
has one and would be pleased to have one with video of one of her visits here which is what the Obamas gave her (something like that). So Norah O'Donnell and Wolffe were discussing whether or not this could be considered "another gaffe" like the DVD gift. :eyes:

1. Plus, the signed song book, the other gift, was ignored by MSNBC.
Why is that?

Are they trying to start some shit?
Why even ask? :shrug:

3. lol
That's so funny that we both started a thread with "But the expert said it was good!" Norah got so excited with the "so, is it a GAFFE?!"

8. DevonRex told me that it contains footage of her 2007 trip to the US so
it is a personal gift, also.

10. Still going with it. Jesus. Fire that fucking producer.
He/she apparently can't even research what was said in his/her own f'ing channel not two hours ago.

14. Richard Wolffe is usually "one of the good guys" who
is always on Olbermann's show. I think he really didn't know. But he should have. And so should have Norah and the producer. (I know that phone number by memory.) :D

17. And, when you think about it..why is the USA corporate
media trying to pin a gaffe on the President abroad? Why aren't they investigating deeper to have his back?

Unless they're a bunch of tabloid yellow journalism jackals?
