Yay!!!
May 7th, 2008 
NOTE: On TV in green room. TV is the wrong resolution and image is stretched. Hey, NBC, you guys heard about High Definition?? Just checking.
On the other hand, Heather did a great job. It’s too bad they don’t want to have a real conversation about anything on the TV. Probably a post about the Mainstream Media in there somewhere.
But I’m going to hit the streets of the big city and take photos. o

Home from work today and flipped on Today and yay Heather!! Boo KLG yuck, when/where did they dig her up? She was rude, she was a bitch and WHAT AN EFFING HIPPOCRIT!! But Heather looked spectacular and was composed and articulated her point, when allowed..

Heather was awesome. Kathy Lee is a bitch. There…I said it.

We didn’t get it here in Oklahoma, even though we have 3 hours of the today show!! How is that??

They finally posted the interview on their website.

oh ok, so I found it ..

Wow Heather, you look awesome, you are SO confident and you know that news dude from Utah that was checking out Sarah Neilson the whole time, well, he did a much better interview don’t you think? You ROCKED, but your interviewers sucked .. they could been a little less catty, don’t you think?
Anyway .. I LOVE you more each time I see you in person ..
way to go girl!!

I just watched the clip - too bad they didn’t have someone intelligent and at least a bit “blog-savvy” doing the interviewing. In spite of that, Heather projected warmth, professionalism, genuiness and intelligence - AND looked great doing it!
Bravo!

Just watched it on the website (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3032633/)… Heather was incredible! So beautiful and calm and eloquent! The two women interviewing her were rude though… lame. Go Heather!

I will venture a guess that Kathie Lee and Hoda don’t even remember the topic of the conversation they had with Heather this morning.
I really would like to read Heather’s thoughts on the topic. I hope she writes about it.
May 7th, 2008 at 11:47 am
devil’s advocate here..the questions weren’t bad..the 4.2 seconds given to answer them were..the idea KLG would be asking ??’s to me is a good one..with her history of discussing her children/life in a different medium with someone who now does it in a new way is fascinating to me..they just needed more time..
but that’s why people blog..nobody has to cut to commercial for a guy sort of cheesing on a lounge chair..
all due respect to the lounge chair guy..I’m sure his mom was proud to see him on tv as well..
May 7th, 2008 at 11:48 am
Have yet to watch this as I’m at work and it’s on the DVR at home just waiting for me but it sounds like old KLG is having a exorcist moment and has forgotten about how ungraciously she exploited her children from the moment they were conceived. Lest we forget the charities she’s even created in their names. Talk about hypocricy at its finest! I’m sure Heather rocked and I can’t wait to get home to see it!
May 7th, 2008 at 11:50 am
I thought Kathie Lee was a bit nasty and judgemental…………but Heather did AWESOME! I think KLGifford needs somebody to give her a smack! ahahahahaha……Way to go Heather!
May 7th, 2008 at 11:58 am
Aw, she looks great!
May 7th, 2008 at 12:02 pm
Fiona, thanks for posting the link! I think I read Heather’s post wrong, because Rachael Ray was on KSL instead of Heather at 10:30!!
Kathie Lee is a pain in the ass. I remember her talking about Cody’s damn potty training. Lately, I believe on Today she’s mentioned Frank’s infidelity that was well publicized a while back.
For heaven’s sake, she has NO room to talk.
Great job Heather! Looking forward to pictures of NY, Jon.

Heather was great which is more than I can say about the interviewers (?)..She should have been on an earlier bit when they had someone who knew what the hell the internet is and not someone who “is a little afraid of computers” (KLG).. GO, HEATHER, YOU ROCK!!! Wish, when I was raising my children YEARS ago, that I could have had the pleasure of a blog like Dooce…of course, at that time, there was no internet and no one had computers in the home..
May 7th, 2008 at 12:12 pm
I slept in (west coast, what can I say…) but still saw the interview on msnbc.com - it’s a shame Heather got stuck with Kathie Lee. I laughed at her concerns about all the info about Leta “being out there”, especially considering Kathie Lee talked non-stop about her kids (back in her days with Regis). Did I see someone else mention the word “hypocrite?”
Blech. But Heather was great. Too bad they didn’t give her more time, but then Kathie Lee always was an attention whore (ouch, did I really say that?)!
I stuck a link to the interview on my blog if anyone missed the show.
May 7th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
so glad to see that Kathie Lee is still a horse’s ass. Good job Heather.
May 7th, 2008 at 12:20 pm
Just caught the segment on msnbc.com. Heather was great, and Hota was tolerable, but I have to echo the sentiments of many of those who have come before me and say that Kathie Lee just looks out of place and should have had no part in an interview on blogging.
May 7th, 2008 at 12:23 pm
I am pleased to read the comments because I was so angry that Hoda and KLG were so unfriendly and uninformed. Heather on the other hand was very gracious and handled their mistakes and attitude with great dignity. Rock on, Heather!!

Heather was great! Boo Kathie Lee and her “I don’t understand it so it’s scary and bad and I sure won’t let you tell me why it’s not.” Grr!
May 7th, 2008 at 12:42 pm
Kathy Lee pimped her kids out for years every morning. She doesn’t even know how to use a computer or what a blog is. She is the last person who should make judgements on what another parent does. Heather is leading the way for all of the mothers and looked great doing it!
May 7th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
The twitterati have spoken. Heather was awesome, Kathie Lee is a knob (and a hypocrite).

I agree with some of the others… what’s the difference if Heather is blogging about Leta or Kathy Lee is TALKING NONSTOP about Cody and Cassidy? Plus remember when she was on Regis, all those stupid Christmas shows, when she’d make them come out and perform???
I stomached the Today Show just to see Heather and it was the first time I saw the return of Kathy Lee… Here’s the scoop and if you have it on tivo, see how accurate I am…
10:00 - show starts
10:05 - Kathy Lee spews forth the name CODY
10:10 - Kahty Lee spews forth the name CASSIDY
Seriously 2 name drops in 10 minutes! I mean at least Heather can go a whole post without talking about Leta.
May 7th, 2008 at 12:56 pm
I taped the show.. cant wait to go home and watch.. I am also reading the book she put out now.. The book is frankly Awesome!
