Ann Coulter says on Fox News: radiation is good for you

Ann Coulter says that being exposed to radiation can be good for you! I think the most ludicrous part of the whole thing is not her saying that radiation might be good for you as she does cite some theoretic studies, but her reasoning for reporting about it.

It seems from the interview, that her main reason for wanting radiation to be good for people is simply so she can ignorantly pick on the government. Oh, and her comments about how the news should be reporting a theoretic science as a fact are great too:D

Btw, I say we test the theory by exposing Ann Coulter to some radiation first hand:P

She would be the healthiest person in the world as soon as she goes to Chernobyl!

Well everyone knows that some radiation in small doses can be good for you.

She's talking about levels 5x those currently reccomended.

My sister is claiming she has "radiation poisoning" (not even joking. We live in BC, quite far inland, so she does not have radiation poisoning) so maybe I should show her that. She doesn't know that woman or about faux news, so she'd probably believe it and (hopefully) stop pretending she has radiation poisoning.... XilePrincess

Haha, didn't realize you lived in Japan either, must be quit frightening even if you are inland:|

I like her golden hair.

Clearly she has never..... been awake before.cd_rom

I do belive you're giving her too much credit:P

I just can't agree with her.

Well she is a *****..But without radiation your body would die.

I dont think she knew that though.

Wow, ok yeah then she most certainly does not run the risk of any sort of radiation poisioning. I should have seen BC and realized British Columbia, I just assumed though, with the next sentence that it was a region in Japan or something.

Good for you in the sense that you might become the Incredible Hulk?

I just can't agree with her.

I wonder if she's merely mocking the radiation hysteria? We're exposed to it everyday. Cell phones, microwaves, and we get huge doses of it from flight.

It didn't hurt my little brother when I stuck him in there for 3 minutes as a baby.

Radiation IS used to treat certain types of therapy, just saying. And how exactly do you "site" a source? Did you mean cite?UT_Wrestler

Ugh, these pundits who just have to be contrary to conventional wisdom are annoying. Rush Limbaugh is another one of that variety.

This isn't ridiculous but she shouldn't have said that. It's not THAT stupid to say, but it shouldn't have been said.

Nothing is being taken out of context, it's a five minute interview. Also thanks for pointing out my "site", I knew something looked wrong, but I was like no it can't be "sight". Meanwhile, I completely forgot about "cite". I blame sub concious phonetics:P

Although, I'm not particulalry worried that you mis-interpreted anything. I suspect you were just exhibiting a bit of mockingly derisve behavior:P

That's why she has that job.

EDIT: My mistake. I mistook her for another FOX anchor.

I was implying that she was attractive, but I mixed her up from the other blonde on FOX. Ann is a hag.

Which blonde, Gretchen Carlson, Megyn Kelly? Any other blonde anchorman on Fox who spells their name unconventionally?

Really is this suprising in the slightest? Fox news is the worst.

You are clearly puttin a spin on it. I watched the first few minutes of the video and she says that radiation in SMALL DOSES can be good for you and isn't harmful. She is simply citing studies and examples.

She isn't saying to go to Chernobyl.

"...Well it's not me, I'm citing a stunning number of physicists."

I'm convinced a large majority of you never even clinked the link to the video.

If you'll notice in my OP, I was also talking about her reason for reporting it, as well as her whole discussion at the end about how the news needs to be telling us that radiation is good for us.
