Samantha Bee, NILF hunterLast night, my TV broke my heart. And then it reached in and put a string of lights around it. First, Melinda Doolittle was kicked off American Idol. I know, I know, you all told me that would happen, but I was foolishly holding out hope. After that travesty, I was dejected and glum and ready to be old, bitter and over TV altogether. But then, like a disaffected superhero in a cape made of snark, Samantha Bee swooped into her seat at The Daily Show to talk about "News I'd Like to F---."
Let's start with the genius of the NILF concept: Newscasters are expected to be attractive — especially the female ones (just ask Katie Couric). But how does that help you understand the news, exactly? Well, if you're Samantha Bee, the point is not to understand but to appreciate. See for yourself:
"Take CNN. Their coverage has proved that war is hell—lloooo, ladies!" The idea is brilliant enough, but the Daily Show masterminds went that extra step, as only they can: They put the piece in the hands of a woman. If Rob Riggle (that overgrown high school football player) or Jason Jones (that douchebag who doesn't deserve to be married to Bee) had delivered these comments, they would have been annoying at best, and probably offensive. But Bee made me want to put on some thigh-high "scoop me" boots, draw a steamy bath and inform the s--- out of myself.
And remember: "Fox is the Hustler of news networks." Thank you, Samantha. I already loved you, but now I'm going to have to stalk you. Submitted by on May 17, 2007 - 10:48am. |

"dirty over thirty"
Samantha Bee deserves a place alongside Tina Fey and Amy Poehler as one of tv’s funniest women. My only complaint is that she’s not on TDS often enough anymore.
“these sick fem dom bitches will report anything.”
Melinda
Got to let out a huge BOO!!! I can't believe that happened! Melinda was a shoo-in for the final 2. PrincessJordin, really? Over Melinda? As much as a hate Blake's machine sounds, Blake FTW. I can't stand Jordin anymore. Crying consists of actual tears. I don't care if she's 17, why does it matter anyways?
ETA: Is this not awesome? The brilliance of AI and TWoP. "Do I Make You Proud At A Moment Like This While I Believe I'm Inside Your Heaven And Angels Brought Me Here Flying Without Wings" I would totally want to hear that.
I love Samantha Bee. "Take CNN. Their coverage has proved that war is hell—lloooo, ladies!" HA! I was going to quote that too.
Hilarious
Beautiful
Awesome Sam Bee clip. Sadly, it makes me want to watch the news . . .
Also about the American Idol sadness: yeah, yeah. It makes me real sad, but hopefully all that means is that sweet MD can get a jump start on building a brand new career not singing back-up!
For real though,
They're no Melissa Theuriau,
LOL
how could she leave out
Definitely some blonde-bias
Definitely some blonde-bias going on in the NILF scouting: no Soledad, no Alexis Glick, no Alison Stewart, no Suzanne Malveaux?! WTH?
As for Melinda Doolittle: Come on home to Nashville. There's plenty of people who made it in your hometown backyard and now you'll be another one of them.
You, of all people, don't need no stinkin' AI title.
hilARious.
i have a thing for those fox dom bitches myself. ;)

you can dance
you can jive
having the time of your life
Mmmm, Samantha Bee’s a bit of a NILF herself
That was brilliant. I really don’t think I’ve laughed that much watching a comedy show in a while.
I love seeing Fake News
I love seeing Fake News mentioned on this site (and AfterElton). :)
However, I for one, loooove Jason Jones; he's my favourite of the current corrospondents. So therefore, the Bee-Jones marriage is fanTAStic to me. Hee.
NILF?
Ok I'm deeply ashamed but I have to ask : what is exactly a NILF?????
But even without knowing that it was fucking brilliant and really funny!
"I'm gonna give you all a nice, fun, normal evening if I have to kill every person on the face of the Earth to do it"
News I'd Like to Fuck
It's just a play on an acronym coined by John Cho's character in "American Pie" (and highly popularized since then) which stands for "Mom I'd Like to Fuck." A MILF is a very hot HOT middle-aged woman, usually with adolescent chidlren who would have no problem whatsoever acquiring a band of much younger loyal admirers if she ever chose to dump her balding, fat, and over-worked husband. Examples of MILFs: Heather Locklear, Demi Moore, (can't think right any more, still thinking of Locklear.......)
Hope this helps!

Newswomen I'd Like to F
I'm so in love with Sam
....and have been for a while. She's easily the funniest "correspondent" in TDS. Check out "Newsweek," where she makes Ghida Fakhry change her name. Here's a link for all you Sam Bee fans: http://onegoodmove.org/1gm/1gmarchive/2006/12/al_jazeera.html.

Thanks!!
ok now I get it!
and yes for those wondering my natural hair color is blond...
"I'm gonna give you all a nice, fun, normal evening if I have to kill every person on the face of the Earth to do it"
blonde, really?
From your avatar, I'd say your hair color's green.
:D I wouldn't feel too bad; it just means you're mature enough to not watch movies like "American Pie" -- people like my girlfriend TRASH it, but I don't care, I loved it!
