Michelle Malkin squared off with New Black Panther Party member Malik Shabazz on The O’Reilly Factor last night.

For context:
Shabazz called Malkin a “political prostitute” and told her she should be ashamed for being a mouthpiece for Bill O’Reilly.

I’m certainly no fan of Shabazz and I disagree with most of what he says, but Michelle Malkin just doesn’t have any room to talk when it comes to “profiting from racial poison”. Just sayin’.

UPDATE: Seems Malkin might not have much room to complain about being called a “political prostitute”, either. An emailer points out that one of Michelle Malkin’s own bloggers at hotair.com wrote a blog post about Cindy Sheehan back in October, calling her a “chubby media whore” in the headline of the post.

Several commenters defended the slur, but at least one commenter was not amused:

Classy headline! Up next: Michelle flings her own feces at war widows.

To which Allahpundit replied:

I wrote the headline, not Michelle.

And I hate to tell you, but it’s perfectly accurate.

Now I’m not saying that makes it okay to call Michelle a political prostitute. But it does rather make her a hypocrite. Lest we forget, Michelle Malkin was the one who once famously wrote:

“The truth is that it’s conservatives themselves who blow the whistle on their bad boys and go after the real extremism on their side of the aisle.”

Her own blog excluded, apparently.
