And since you're so dedicated to the truth, I'm sure you'll want your readers to know that in the same thread in which Bill made the comment about FOX News paying their guests, I informed our readers that I was pretty sure that was incorrect.
Everyone should know one thing about anyone appearing on any of these shows as "experts." They are all getting paid by FOX NEWS and FOX NEWS does not pay an "expert" because he is going to side with liberal views about the war.

Sorry, Bill. I'm pretty sure that's not true. I believe the FNC contributors get paid but, as far as I know, Emerson is not one. The other guests appear for free. It's great publicity, of course, and it legitimizes Emerson's terrorism "credentials." But I'm pretty sure he's not paid by FOX.

It's such a shame that you always seem to resort to cheap gimmicks and smears when making your arguments rather than debating like a grown up. That's why, by the way, you are not allowed on our site and why your refusual to stay away has been deemed by us to be harassment.

Why? I must have missed that announcement.
> cheap gimmicks and smears
Yes, I suppose quoting word for word what's written on your site is a pretty cheap trick.
> your refusual to stay away has been deemed by us to be harassment.
You can "deem" it anything you like, that doesn't make it so.

Not only quoting word for word, but posting the actual video that disproves the claims on NH is a cheap gimmick and a smear? What does that make the people who posted the falsehoods in the first place? Pathetic ankle-biters.
However, I do applaud Ellen for being brave enough to admit to the mistake of utilizing Billy's "writing abilities" and having him as a contributor for their site.
Good job johnny and good job Ellen.

Did they really sever all ties with Bill Corcoran?

Well, you have Ellen's statement that they did. On the other hand, the word on their comments threads this morning is something rather different: that Corcoran is not posting because he's having some technical problem accessing the site. It's all rather mysterious.

johnny dollar banned? clearly thats based on his opinions, and not his behavior.
ties severed? why? did he embarrass you? what about all the other lies and distortions?
why do you "watch fox so we don't have to"? theres like a million other mainstream media outlets to provide balance. i guess you can't even handle ONE mention of an alternate view on an issue. hmm, and yet FOX actually does provide both sides of most issues.
newshounds? ...bitchin'.

"cheap gimmicks and smears when making your arguments" Yep, those pesky transcript's video's and tapes.
"Debating like a grown up" Now how would she know how grown ups debate?
"That's why, by the way, you are not allowed on our site" So that's why Johnny and anyone that doesn't bow at your poop is deleted faster than a dog chasing it's tail.
"why your refusual to stay away has been deemed by us to be harassment."
Now you believe you make laws and enforce them. Call it CENSORSHIP, Ellen, that's what is. Youa re terrified of your ankle nippers coming out of a tail chasing high and finding they have been lied to for years by their master.
And finally. At least Johnny allowed your post to stay so you could have your say, for what it's worth, but it still stands for US GROWN-UPS to decide who is telling the truth. Try it sometime and you might be able to MOVE ON with your life and contribute to society in a meaningful way.
Come back and explain why Billy boy as reappeared on your site because we know he will. In your blog's or post's. Also come back anytime you need to see how grown ups state their positions and those of us that are GROWN UPS can handle a J$ smackdown when it get's too personal.

Great job by the way Johnny. You finally got them to respond to a post which proves they are reading your site. And therefore proves they have yet been able to disprove anything you have called them on.

apparently acting like a grown up in newshounds world means deleting articles that turn out to be false instead of posting a correction.

The comment below is from Bill Corcoran. Because haloscan comments are limited in length, his words were cut short because they ran a little too long. He has emailed the rest of his intended statement, and we have combined that with the comments below so that, in the interests of fairness, his side of the story can be given in full:

Johnny: I've read all the comments, especially those from Ellen at Newshounds, and I feel it is now time to set the record straight.
I was not FIRED. I QUIT.
The problems started several months ago when I wrote to Rachel Sklar of the Huffington Post to tell her I thought she had been used as a guest on "Fox News Watch." Ms. Sklar told me I could write her ONLY if I had a news tip for her. Then Ellen, my arch enemy at Newshounds, jumped in to the rescue of Rachel Sklar and supposedly talked to her and told her they were thinking of firing me.
I continued to post a guest post every Sunday morning on Newshounds, and on Dec. 16 and Dec. 23 my guest post pulled in over 1,150 comments each. That is a record for Newhounds post which usually average about 50 to 100 comments.
The problem that caused me to QUIT was when I could not get into the comments section of my own post on Newshounds. I kept getting a message that read: "Banned by webmaster. Your comment will not be posted." I wrote countless letters to Newshounds, and to my editor Marie Therese, asking why I was "BANNED" from my own post on Newshounds, but I could still go on any other Newshounds post and make comments.
I was told by Ellen it was an AOL problem. I called AOL and they assured me they had nothing to do with blocking me from my own guest blog.
I was told it was a computer gltich by Marie Therese and yet when I asked why I couldn't post on my own gyest blog, but I had no problem with posting comments on any other Newshounds post, they failed to answer me.
I did everything they told me to do. I shutdown my computer. Restarted it and stood on my head, but still I was getting the message: "Banned by webmaster. Your comments will not be posted."
I tried writing Haloscan who monitors the Newshounds site, but because I was not an official Newshound staffer I was told by Haloscan they could not comment on my complaint.
I asked Marie Therese and Ellen to look into the Haloscan situations, and they said they would but I heard nothing except getting a letter from another NewsHound lady, Deborah, saying it was most likely a computer glitch.
I wrote back saying I could accept the glitch excuse, by why was I BANNED ONLY from my own post but none of the other Newshounds posts. It didn't make any sense to me then, and still doesn't.
Then miraculously last week I suddenly was able to post on my own post from December 23. My post from Dec. 23 can be found here: My post from Dec. 23 is: http://tinyurl.com/237qk3 on News Hounds and the whopping 1,156 comments posted to my post as can be seen here: http://www.haloscan.com/comments...wshounds/13542/
However as soon as I was able to get back on my own post and make some comments, I suddenly was "BANNED" again. I was still able to make comments on other Newshonds posts, but not my own.
It appeared to me as the people at Newshounds were jealous of the tremendous following I had built up an

Are you coming here to clear your good name Billy?
I doubt they banned you because they were jealous of your comment numbers. If you have an "arch enemy" in your group of supposed online friends there are obviously other issues that you aren't airing.
What a group of disorganized, dishonest fools the NH are. Ellen tells us here that they've severed all ties, they claim technical difficulties to the mutts, and Billy says he quit here. Why not be honest?

I enjoyed reading what Bill Corcoran had to say on NEWS HIUNDS. I used to pass on his comments to other friends who think progressively. Too bad he is not writing anymore. We need more people who speak out for Democracy. I can't remember when I discoved that Fox News isn't real news but it has been sometime now.

Too bad all his stuff was, BS... right, Davee?
Oh well, when you want to believe somethings real... that's almost as good as it actually being real. Well, for some people anyway.

Johnny: Since I have been so forthright with you regarding my quitting as a guest blogger for Newshounds, I hope you will allow me to plug my new blog, "CORKSPHERE," which made its debut today, Jan. 1,2008

Oh Fox Fan, that's a little mean. Of course you can plug your blog here, BC. It's certainly on-topic! Good luck in the new year to you and all our readers.

Perhaps it was a little mean considering the spirit of the new year. Billy seems to have changed his tune somewhat since those older articles were written that exposed his lies when he was with the mutts.
I apologize Billy. Good luck with your new blog, I hope it puts NH to shame! Speaking of, you could write an article there about how and why your separation from NH transpired. No better way to start it off than with a bang!
