*Days after publicly apologizing for comments made about Mitt Romneys adopted grandson Kieran, Melissa Harris-Perry is on the receiving end of daggers thrown by Ann Coulter, who referred to the MSNBC talk show host as the networks token African-American.
Coulter and Sean Hannity had their say on Harris-Perry and her apology earlier this week on Fox News.
Its particularly good having Melissa Harris-Perry of all people making fun of a black child in the Romney family as a token, Coulter told Hannity. What does she think she is at MSNBC?
Harris-Perry has been at the center of recent criticism after for joking about Kieran being the only black person in a photo of the Romney family. She later apologized for her comments on-air, tearing up, and in a statement online.
Hannity followed Coulters lead with his own criticism of Harris-Perry.
Why would you say that? Hannity asked Coulter while disagreeing with her and adding that there are plenty of black Americans, including Al Sharpton, at MSNBC.
Hannity continued voicing his criticism as he took aim at MSNBC while watching a montage of the channels hosts with Coulter. In his eyes, the montage allegedly showed MSNBCs obsession with playing the race card.

Ann Coulter On Melissa Harris Perry's Romney Apology - Video
Conservative columnist Ann Coulter appeared on Fox & Friends on Wednesday morning where she was asked for her thoughts on the revelations contained in former Defense Sec. Robert Gates book. Coulter said that the fact the White House defended Vice President Joe Biden from Gates attacks and not former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton suggested to her that President Barack Obama favors Biden to be his successor.
I know the media keeps telling us that the whole country owes Hillary Clinton because the Democrats ran off with their trophy wife and we owe her, Coulter said.

I dont think the rest of the country feels that way to begin with, but shes not that likeable a person, apparently, she continued. She added that the left regularly flirts with a variety of alternatives to Clinton in 2016.
And you have Obama, who apparently prefers his own vice president to a secretary of state, which makes some sense, but its curious that you say theyre only defending Biden, she concluded.

Before Ann Coulter appeared on Fox & Friends this morning, the show teased her appearance with an unfortunately hilarious Chyron graphic on screen. As Coulter strode down the hallways of Fox News to the set, the words GATES OF HELL appeared below her. Of course, they were referring to former Defense Secretary Robert Gates new bombshell book, Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War, but thats not what it looked like:
After a commercial break, host Elisabeth Hasselbeck introduced Coulter as a Fox News contributor, which led to another awkward moment.
Thats very nice of you, but Im not a Fox News contributor, Coulter said, despite her frequent appearances on Hannity and other programs. In fact the only network to ever employ me was MSNBC.

‘Gates of Hell’: Fox News Pairs Ann Coulter with Unfortunate Chyron
Sean Hannity is not letting MSNBCs Melissa Harris-Perry off the hook any time soon. On Monday night, he and Ann Coulter said Harris-Perrys tearful apology for a segment making light of a picture of Mitt Romney and his white family with an adopted black grandchild was insincere and pushed by management, while Coulter went so far as to call Harris-Perry the token African-American at MSNBC.
Coulter found it ironic that Harris-Perry would insinuate that anyone else, like Kieran Romney, is a token, because what does she think she is at MSNBC?
Hannity was actually stunned Coulter would say this, giving the slightest of defenses to MSNBC by saying they have other black personalities like Al Sharpton. But aside from that, he agreed with Coulter that the network is full of lunatics who just cant get enough of their own hyperbolic rhetoric.
Coulter also pointed out the irony of MSNBC taking on race in this fashion while theyve gone above and beyond in finding ways to accuse Republicans and conservatives of racism. She said, Unfortunately for liberals, there is no more racism in America. There is more cholera in America than there is racism.
