Palin filmmaker John Ziegler's mad at us

By GottaLaff

From a site that linked to our video:

UPDATE II: Just got an e-mail from Ziegler, who says he hasn't seen the video but feels it may have been edited to misrepresent him. He had agreed to do the show, then wanted to back out because he had other business to attend to, and so he wasn't really bringing his A-game that day.

Um, apparently he never saw what was on the cutting room floor. I know people who did. They aired only a couple of the least unflattering cuts, and left out some doozies.

UPDATE III: In the comments at Hot Air, Lorien suggests Ziegler was trying to give the girl the brush:

It could be that Ziegler caught something - now edited out - that made him want to end this quickly. No sane guy - on a date with a chick who is pretty cute - is going into this unless his goal is to get out of the date. I've done something similar to this in the past, a bit more tactfully, but what guy (or girl) hasn't pissed off the date on purpose, just to end it.

Hmmm. Maybe. But why do the "suicide bomber" routine with the cameras rolling?

They nailed it. And from what I know, Ziegler's date was not the, er, less desirable one here.

If one doesn't want to expose one's bad side, one shouldn't go on a Tee Vee dating show and flaunt it.
