Here’s some clips:

Oh Annie,
Your Grace and professionalism when under intense attack by such an uneducated and judgmental woman is very impressive!
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate and am inspired by this type of visual art. Thank you for doing the work that needs to be done. It helps me get up everyday and feel great about who I am!
I HEART Annie O!
The news is so fucked up in the way that they hype up and exploit — essentially pervert — works that are educational, moralizing, inspiring, sex positive, and fun! She’s right in that the Traveling Sex Workers Art Show humanizes people which the industry (at large) does not.
I performed in the show two years ago at the Center for Sex and Culture and had a blast. Full respect for her, and for her ability to articulate well under pressure.
Go Annie!!

Good thing Twincest wasn’t there… those student’s would have been traumatized fo life.
Would you rather have an on going mental commentary of your life as seen through the eyes of FOX news
or
have to share bathroom with Pat Buchanan?
Sharing a bathroom with Pat.
FOX news is fucking horrible. Though the thought of a warm toilet equally grosses me out.
…shudder.
Wow, I was seriously left speechless by the first one, I can’t believe how well Annie kept her cool.
Mainstream media is so scary and exploitative, it makes me stomach hurt.
audacia!!!!
(this is c. trouble, i work at good vibes these days!)
so glad to read yr comment.
also, i would LOVE to see the ongoing mental commentary of my life by fox news. at least for the same length of time it would take to share a bothroom with pat.
[…] seriously folks, I just peaked at CJ’s post on the Sex Worker’s Art Show and it really upset me. People can be very ignorant, which in and of itself is not wrong, but when […]
that was pretty upsetting…then again, everything on Fox news is. Annie Oakley, YOU ARE AMAZING!
Annie is amazing. She’s an inspiration.
The Fox interviewer was so vile. I wanted a shower after watching this.
Annie was great. She had poise and her soft voice made me want to hear more from her (instead of the interviewer). I’ve never seen her or the show before and she was impressive, so now I have to.
Reading descriptions of the show on-air probably made ticket sales go up. After all, Republicans watch Fox.

The Fox News woman simply showed herself to be extremely judgmental, derisive, condescending. Basically, a complete jerk. I think no matter who she was interviewing, the viewers would have been horrified at how rude she was.
Annie Oakley was, indeed, a complete class act, and even moreso when juxtaposed with the cretin who interviewed her.
It still amazes me that such highschool bullies are given any airtime at all.
