The web site run by the former "Dancing With the Stars" contestant is criticizing the selection of ABC's Martha Raddatz as moderator for tonight's Vice Presidential debate because President Obama attended her wedding to now-FCC chair Julius Genachowski in 1991 when she was working for NPR (they divorced six years later)--the Commission on Presidential Debates effectively says that Wingnut Who Used to Wear a Bow Tie is full of hooey:

And I won't even bring up "Children in Need." Except this year, Amelia Harris-Lindsay. In a sexy evening gown. I don't care if she can't sing. And that she's the sports department. -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People! You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TV or Not TV" group.
