(2002-09-07) — Bob Unger, executive editor of the Centre Daily Times (CDT), in State College, PA, has proposed marriage to conservative columnist Ann Coulter, just days after dumping Coulter’s column from his newspaper.
“Now it can be told,” Unger said. “I fired Ann, not because she hates so much, but because I love her so much. I want to avoid even the appearance of conflict. If she’s going to be Mrs. Robert Unger, she can’t very well be on the CDT payroll, not even as a syndicated columnist.”
Unger said astute readers picked up on his attraction to Coulter by reading his September 7 editorial. In it, he refers to her “pretty face” and calls her “flashy”. He even hints at his previously suppressed passion when he writes “love is hard.”
Coulter was too busy to return this reporters calls, since she was getting her pretty face on television and selling more of her best-selling books.
