== Lack of media coverage on Trump announcement ==
From what I understand, the announcement took place yesterday morning. By last night, there weren't a whole lot of decent, non-hostile sources solely dedicated to the accouncment from which to draw from for what I added. Even now, there isn't much more than there was last night.[http://news.google.com/news?um=1&ned=us&hl=en&q=prejean+trump&cf=all&scoring=n] I guess the media didn't like Trump yanking the football away.

== ERROR RE FIRST AMENDMENT IN MAIN PAGE ==
The phrase "she dared use her First Amendment rights" incorrectly uses the term First Amendment rights, which apply only against a governmental entity, and the Miss USA Pageant is not such an entity. No constitutional rights were implicated.

:Seriously, this isn't something intelligent people need to debate. There's no First Amendment issue, and the page is just plain wrong. First Amendment states "Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech..."--[[User:Pjscool|Pjscool]] 18:48, 1 Jun 2009 (EDT)
::What was meant by "Dared to use First Amendment rights" is "free speech." What it meant is something like, "She dared to use her right to free speech to say that marriage is between man and woman only. [[User:AddisonDM|AddisonDM]] 18:56, 1 June 2009 (EDT)
Yeah, try to use these arguments against the use of the phrase when it comes to Perez Hilton's comments. Had someone not in the government done to him what he and others did to Miss Prejean, no one would be caterwauling "It's not a First Amendment issue!!!"

== Hounded By Larry King ==
Is this worthy of inclusion? Prejean repeatedly asking Larry not to ask her about her settlement agreement with the pageant, pointing out (quite reasonably) that she was legally unable to talk about it. King continued to repeat the question until Prejean had to remove her microphone and walk away from the interview.
Seriously--it's being spun as if she threw a tantrum, but on the actual video, she remains polite and reasonable, and only walks away after repeatedly asking King not to pursue that line of questioning. --[[User:Benp|Benp]] 19:38, 12 November 2009 (EST)
