Her right to free speech is covered by the Bill of Rights. But there is no law that says she has a right to do it on NBC. I doubt very much that Fox would want to hire me as a commentator, for example, but there is no law or Constitutional clause or amendment that says they have to.
Ann Coulter smiled brightly and thanked Matt Lauer for welcoming her to the TODAY show. Lauer smiled back, thanked her for coming, and told the caustic conservative commentator that reports of her being banned by NBC were untrue.

UPDATE:
According to Keith Olbermann on MSNBC, the "banned for life" part is Coulter's own exaggeration. Apparently it was very important to her to introduce her new book on NBC (why NBC, I wonder, since she thinks it's so reprehensible?) and she was throwing one of her trademark fits.
