<p><b>On <em>Hannity</em> radio show, WABC's Levin said of Pelosi: "You could
bounce a dime off her cheeks" </b></p>

<p>On the April 5 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio
show, <a href="http://mediamatters.org/issues_topics/people/seanhannity?src=item200704060008">Sean Hannity</a>
asked conservative radio talk show host Mark Levin, host of WABC&#39;s <i>The Mark Levin Show</i> and <a href="http://mediamatters.org/rd?src=item200704060008&http://www.landmarklegal.org/">Landmark Legal
Foundation</a> president, why he referred to House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi (D-CA) as "<a href="http://mediamatters.org/rd?src=item200704060008&http://marklevinfan.com/?page_id=797">Stretch</a>." Levin
replied: "You could bounce a dime off her cheeks. The woman has had so
many face-lifts."
</p>

<p>Levin routinely <a href="http://mediamatters.org/rd?src=item200704060008&http://marklevinfan.com/?page_id=797">assigns</a> derogatory names to members of the
Democratic Party. For example, according to a "<a href="http://mediamatters.org/rd?src=item200704060008&http://marklevinfan.com/?page_id=797">Mark Levin
Lexicon</a>" posted on the Mark Levin Fan weblog, Levin has
referred to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) as "Hillary Rotten Clinton"
and "Her Thighness"; has called Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA)
"The Dwarf Senator"; and Rep. John P. Murtha (D-PA), "Lard
Ass." </p>

<p>As <i>Media Matters for
America</i> <a href="http://mediamatters.org/items/200611010007?src=item200704060008">noted</a>,
on the October 31,
2006, edition of Fox News&#39; <i>Hannity
&amp; Colmes</i>, Republican pollster Frank Luntz said: "I always use the line for Nancy
Pelosi, &#39;You get one shot at a facelift. If it doesn&#39;t work the first time, let
it go.&#39; "</p>

<p><i>The Sean Hannity Show</i> has more than
12 million listeners each week, according to <i><a href="http://mediamatters.org/rd?src=item200704060008&http://www.talkers.com/main/index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id=17&amp;Itemid=34">Talkers
Magazine</a></i>, making it the second-most-listened-to talk
radio show in the nation. It follows behind <i>The
Rush Limbaugh Show</i>. </p>

<p>From the April 5 broadcast of ABC Radio Networks&#39; <i>The Sean Hannity Show</i>:</p><blockquote>

<p>HANNITY: All right, let me ask you a
question. Now, I assume you call Nancy
-- well, I better not go there. All right, listen --</p>

<p>LEVIN: No, why -- why -- why not go
there? </p>

<p>HANNITY: I got to go, excuse me.</p>

<p>LEVIN: I call her "Stretch" for a reason and there&#39;s nothing
-- there&#39;s nothing wrong with it [unintelligible] it&#39;s factual. </p>

<p>HANNITY: What&#39;s that?</p>

<p>LEVIN: You could bounce a dime off
her cheeks. The woman has had so many face-lifts, isn&#39;t it obvious to
everybody? </p>

<p>HANNITY: You&#39;re breaking up on
me. I can hardly hear you.</p>

<p>

LEVIN: All right.</p></blockquote><table width="100%" style="background: #e8e8e8;
