The guy came up with a totally rational argument, and they call him 'close-minded?' As though openmindedness is just a synonym for 'agreeing with everything I say.'
STUPID BURGLAR!!!!!!! jajajajajaja. If you are a "medium", and ask for respectfull, is because you can't support your own affirmations. Miss, Margolis... Please Don't use the cold reading in tv. It's too much hilarious and dangerous.
"I said it was her daughter" No, she said she was her mother. Bold-faced lying, just hoping people won't remember 2 minutes ago. Sad that it works so often...
Ouch. Painful. Cold reading is so embarrassing. I also like how pointing out the glaring obvious is somehow disrespectful. Lady. You have no clue what respect means. Your certainly have no respect for others intelligence.
If a member of any real profession (e.g. doctor, car mechanic, IT support dude, financial advisor) failed like that, the recourse "you weren't open-minded" wouldn't make sense. It's not the customer's fault. It's unacceptable in any profession that actually does work. But I wonder how many people think this lady is a disgusting con artist, and then turn around and donate money to a church.
"I picked up on Mary. I said it's her daughter." um... no ..... you didn't get "Mary", you fished one letter at a time. Then, you said it was her mother, and She said it was her daughter. Crooks like this make me sick. You know she preys on grieving parents and widows and widowers to "help them get closure" while lining her own pockets.
@pyrobryan I picked up on that, too. It's a common cold-reading technique to claim responsibility for information that the subject provided after the fact.
This is called 'cold reading'. It's asking loaded questions where the answers are mostly yes (e.g. "M or a J name" - the two most common starting letters for names in the USA; or asking if "money is an issue" with a dead person - money is almost always an issue when people pass away). People who are easily impressed (or to be less polite, fucking stupid), it seems like she has knowledge she shouldn't have. Everybody else can see they're just leading questions.
Wow, the spirits must be total dicks! They tell her everything she needs to know to be wrong on national television. I bet they were just leading her on all these years until she got a TV spot so they could ruin her day.
Classic cold reading. The worst part is, she might be one of the cold readers that actually believe in their own abilities. She may honestly think she's "in contact with the spirit world"....
My mother and two of her sisters are called Maria. My father also starts with an M. Two of my cousins are M and two of my cousins are J. Many of my closer friends are M and J. An old dog in the family was a J.
Oh gawd, it must be a ghost dog! It's the most likely explanation.
She used to be pretty big in my country of the Netherlands. Having her own show on a commercial channel. One that cared more about ratings than the fact they were fleecing and defrauding people. Then some intrepid journalists on public television ran an exposé on her and she was finished here. Sad to see she's making something of a comeback
Nice to see at least one person who was truly open-minded and followed the evidence. Too many are so close-minded that they refuse to even consider the possibility that they're talking to an obvious charlatan.
I'm glad to see frauds get called out. But seeing how this works, it's amazing that people believe that the convincing cold readers are real psychics or whatever.
Also, you can be wrong 100% of the time and get paid in another profession: lawyer. Everyone please check out the James Randi Educational Foundation, and have fun on You Tube looking at an old Carson clip (Jonny used to be a magician) where he just demolishes Uri Geller. Some great stuff.
she did NOT say that mary was her daughter...she ASKED!! These people make me sick. How do they sleep at night? On a gigantic stack of money given to them by boneheads.
@HumanisticJones That's another cold reading trick. You ask the question like "Is it your grandmother?". If the answer is no, well, no big deal, you just asked. If the answer is yes, then WOAHH THAT PSYCHIC KNEW IT WAS HER GRANDMOTHER ZOMG
"Psychics" are simply confidence tricksters performing an extremely limited repertoire of cold and hot reading tricks. If they constrained themselves to "entertainment" then perhaps it wouldn't be so bad. But these ghouls are deliberately exploiting gullible and vulnerable people, people who have lost parents, siblings, even children for financial reward. They are the scum of the earth really and it is a wonder that any television channel gives them a platform to perform their act.
DUHHH. 3/4 of my grandparents (all living ) have names that start with M or J.
In the US, James, John, Robert and Michael are the most common names. Excluding Robert, that makes up over 9% of the US population. By including a J, she just included 1 in 10 males in her vague question.
For females, the most common name is Mary. Over 2.6%! .8% named Maria. 0.9% named Jennifer. .49% named Jessica. .5% named Michelle. With J&M for women, that's over 5%.
@Dentarthurdent54 For only $49.95 per minute, you can call my psychic hotline, and I'll tell you the secrets to the universe, your horoscope, and your lucky numbers!

Honestly, this was pathetic and hilarious. Kudos to the newsmen for calling this lying, criminal asshole on her incompetent performance.
It's as if these "psychics" aren't even trying anymore....This must be the only "job" in the world where you can be wrong 100% of the time and still get paid.
More people need to stand up to psychics like the one anchor did and not be so worried about hurting their feelings...they're scam artists and frauds and should be treated as such.
So if I don't believe in bullshit I'm close-minded? Open-mindedness isn't measured in how many things you believe in, but rather your willingness to (critically) consider new and different ideas and concepts.
@theholychic "good con-psychic"? How was that performance in cold-reading even close to being in the good category? Cold/Hot-reading can be impressive skills in their own right, but Char botches it up really badly here.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Char has actually done some pretty impressive readings, I think it was just pressure for her. You can tell she means well and has a good heart. What really pisses me off though, is I can't believe what she did to her face. Her face can't move anymore. I Feel so bad for her that she destroyed her looks like that... It honestly breaks my heart.
@buck78 "you can tell she means well in her heart"... she exploits people when they are vulnerable by pretending to communicate with them. she gives them false hope in exchange for money. she is a fraud and a neussance to society
@buck78 the only thing we can tell is that ur a gullible fool, if she had a good heart and meant well she wouldnt be making millions of off suckers like u
I really want to curse Char for life. I want to beat her up so badly for playing with people's emotions. People who lost their father, their brother, sister, mother, wife,husband. How can you even be so cold to dot that. However I'm not going to judge. You'e a millionaire by frauding people. The police won't get to you. The FBI won''t get you but Char, God is watching. I'm not going to judge. He is.
@joshieberger You are insulting my , no you your insulting your own intelligence if you say that. I'm not judging, I'm just saying that God is watching. She obviously is a fraud, I'm not saying what God will do, I'm just saying that she won't be able to do this without having to explain one day.
@michaelyouth im not sure u are familiar with the definition of the word 'judge' look it up u did it, we all do it, its not always a bad thing...have a lovely day
@joshieberger You are insulting your own intelligence. Judging means to ''pass judgement'', meaning you have a verdict. I'm just saying that she might hide this from whomever, but I'm saying God is watching and she will have to explain to him. That is not judging, that is what will happen.
@michaelyouth stop telling me what im insulting and stop defining words as u see fit...judging does not mean delivering a verdict it means making a decision, u decided, as we all did, that this person is a charlatan...and keep ur god talk to urself, ur make believe friends are ur business, not mine
@joshieberger She is a charlatan, you don't have to be a genius to realise this. This is no judgement. Once more you are insulting your own intelligence.
@michaelyouth here idiot: To form an opinion or estimation of after careful consideration: judge heights; judging character....thats the definition, which is what u did, do i have to hear again about ur opinion of my intelligence..ugh, religious people are just fucking idiots like jim jefferies says
@joshieberger Once more: you are insulting your own intelligence if you can not see the difference between judgement, as throwing a verdict, or seeing a fact.
@joshieberger Silly! It's not judging if you invoke a god to judge for you :D LOL.
But for serious, this "psychic"(as if such a thing exists, hah) actually should be judged, criticised, ridiculed, all that jazz, for being a liar and a scam artist.
Oops, I didn't know there was a character limit on comments. Anyway, the point is all psychic readings are fake, but this one would have gone better if the newslady wasn't such a dimwit.
I think I know why this "psychic" failed so miserably.
Before she appeared on the news, she somehow found out about a relative of the newswoman's husband. She probably had set up her whole act around this person. That's why she got frustrated when the newslady said she didn't have any relatives with an M or J name and she said, "Yes you do, duh!" And then she specifically asked if her husband had any relatives like that and the lady said no, the psychic said "I think you do"--but the oth
@Paulthegorilla One of the tactics these fraudsters employ is to seed doubt, blame their failure on the client for not "remembering" and insist that they are getting it right. Derren Brown did a good job exposing a British psychic named Joe Power in one of his shows. He explains(and performs) the tricks and methods used by psychics/cold readers, and seeding doubt is a classic one. I think some psychics claim that Derren Brown is actually psychic, lol. You can find it on YouTube.
@stephenwalls1 He's a good guy, he hates that these people take advantage of vulnerable people. I had to snicker when Joe Power had a tantrum after he completely failed at a filmed reading Derren set up for him. He accused the woman he was reading for of being an actress, and complained that the house was tainted the moment someone as skeptical as Derren entered it. So skepticism scares away ghosties? How convenient!
She asked: do u know a J or an M living or deceased. Who doesn’t? Next: ‘Is it a J or M? SHE doesn’t know. She guessed male: no response “or female, I don’t know” (Cold reading). Still doesn’t get the name, starts with individual letters. Next: grandmother? (she tried to influence the woman mentioning grandparents) (To cover up: Is another marie/ middle name? etc.) She guessed boy friend(based on the woman’s age she thought the girl was a teen) She wasn’t correct once. No hits. Weird.
@Smithpolly people think she is guessing, but how can she be guessing the right letters every single time she does a reading? So she couldnt be guessing.
He wasn't close minded. He listened to her and was totally unimpressed because she did nothing impressive. And when she tells him that he needs to be kind to people at the end, she's basically saying "Don't ask me any awkward questions about what I'm doing."
@michealyouth she is using her intuition! Lets see you come up with the correct letter! U dont have to believe, im not forcing you too, but dont hate on her. She cant guess and get it right all the time, so therefore she cant be guessing.
I want to believe, even just so that Char and fake charlatans who prey on the people who are mourning, burn in hell.. I really can't believe this. Char is making millions of dollars, with lies.. I can't even tell the anger I am feeling, when I see people ike this, it makes me sick.. So nobody dare to say that she is telling the truth, unless she comes with a fucking name for once, and no bullshit like is it a a? a b? a c? a d? im seeing a j? je no? ja? is it jake? jack, jacob etc. etc.
Larry, perhaps you should stop playing with your nipple long enough, stop trying to get a boner, and listen, respect, and be kinder. Then maybe you will go national.
I guess spirts stutter alot cus these psychics can never get one clean word from them. Ummmmmm I'm getting a j or an m I don't know the dam accent is too thick
As for char's other youtube vids, check out "Char Margolis with Host Kelly Ripa", "Char Margolis Discussed on Live. July 2010", "This is amazing Char Margolis: Psychic Intuitive."and "Char Margolis amazes again". Psychics DO exist. U think all those ppl in Australia's or wateva country Most Gifted Psychics are all fake?? U take this vid as full evidence that they dont exist. That is why u guys are very narrow minded ppl and I feel sorry for all of u.
@trancefixed1 Psychics are not real, just simply naive and irrational. These con artists have been put up to the test several times through the years. When it comes to a controlled experiment they ALWAYS FAIL. Simply youtube: the amazing randi or James randi psychics. or better yet youtube Dawkins interviews Darren Brown. Brown tells all the secrets to what he does and how you fucktards fall for it.
Don't be a fool. Why do you think that spirits give out only the first letter of their name? Don't you think that if they were there they would do anything to give their name and personal information so that their love ones could believe?
Look at 0.53 minute.. Char says: Is it your mom? The woman says no it's my daughter.
When Larry just says that she is failing miserably at 2.24 minute, she says at 2.29 minute that she told that Mary was her daughter but she didn't.
i ask again, did u watch her other vids on youtube? I wanted to make another post shortly after, but youtube kept failing to post my comments. So hope this one works >.>. Anyway, watch her other vids. The way u talk though makes me assume u will come up with other excuses to say she is fake. She is not the only well known one..there is John Edward and Mitchell Coombes. One had his own show the other featured in Australia's Most Gifted Psychic. Both wrote their own books.
Gee, guessing games? WTF? Pretty crap psychic, does nothing but ask questions and wait for the answer! Oh wait, they ALL do that, she's just not as good.
OMG people really fall for this shit? "Is there an M?" REALLY? What a fake bitch. She should have just started with fucking A and be done with it.

What really pisses me off though, is I can't believe what she did to her face. Her face can't move anymore. I Feel so bad for her that she destroyed her looks like that... It honestly breaks my heart.

@buck78 "you can tell she means well in her heart"... she exploits people when they are vulnerable by pretending to communicate with them. she gives them false hope in exchange for money. she is a fraud and a neussance to society

I really want to curse Char for life. I want to beat her up so badly for playing with people's emotions. People who lost their father, their brother, sister, mother, wife,husband. How can you even be so cold to dot that. However I'm not going to judge. You'e a millionaire by frauding people. The police won't get to you. The FBI won''t get you but Char, God is watching. I'm not going to judge. He is.

@joshieberger You are insulting my , no you your insulting your own intelligence if you say that. I'm not judging, I'm just saying that God is watching. She obviously is a fraud, I'm not saying what God will do, I'm just saying that she won't be able to do this without having to explain one day.

joshieberger 1 month ago
@joshieberger You are insulting your own intelligence. Judging means to ''pass judgement'', meaning you have a verdict. I'm just saying that she might hide this from whomever, but I'm saying God is watching and she will have to explain to him. That is not judging, that is what will happen.

@michaelyouth stop telling me what im insulting and stop defining words as u see fit...judging does not mean delivering a verdict it means making a decision, u decided, as we all did, that this person is a charlatan...and keep ur god talk to urself, ur make believe friends are ur business, not mine

But for serious, this "psychic"(as if such a thing exists, hah) actually should be judged, criticised, ridiculed, all that jazz, for being a liar and a scam artist.

I think I know why this "psychic" failed so miserably.
Before she appeared on the news, she somehow found out about a relative of the newswoman's husband. She probably had set up her whole act around this person. That's why she got frustrated when the newslady said she didn't have any relatives with an M or J name and she said, "Yes you do, duh!" And then she specifically asked if her husband had any relatives like that and the lady said no, the psychic said "I think you do"--but the oth

@Paulthegorilla One of the tactics these fraudsters employ is to seed doubt, blame their failure on the client for not "remembering" and insist that they are getting it right. Derren Brown did a good job exposing a British psychic named Joe Power in one of his shows. He explains(and performs) the tricks and methods used by psychics/cold readers, and seeding doubt is a classic one. I think some psychics claim that Derren Brown is actually psychic, lol. You can find it on YouTube.

stephenwalls1 1 month ago
@stephenwalls1 He's a good guy, he hates that these people take advantage of vulnerable people. I had to snicker when Joe Power had a tantrum after he completely failed at a filmed reading Derren set up for him. He accused the woman he was reading for of being an actress, and complained that the house was tainted the moment someone as skeptical as Derren entered it. So skepticism scares away ghosties? How convenient!

She asked: do u know a J or an M living or deceased. Who doesn’t? Next: ‘Is it a J or M? SHE doesn’t know. She guessed male: no response “or female, I don’t know” (Cold reading). Still doesn’t get the name, starts with individual letters. Next: grandmother? (she tried to influence the woman mentioning grandparents) (To cover up: Is another marie/ middle name? etc.) She guessed boy friend(based on the woman’s age she thought the girl was a teen) She wasn’t correct once. No hits. Weird.

He wasn't close minded. He listened to her and was totally unimpressed because she did nothing impressive. And when she tells him that he needs to be kind to people at the end, she's basically saying "Don't ask me any awkward questions about what I'm doing."

I want to believe, even just so that Char and fake charlatans who prey on the people who are mourning, burn in hell.. I really can't believe this. Char is making millions of dollars, with lies.. I can't even tell the anger I am feeling, when I see people ike this, it makes me sick.. So nobody dare to say that she is telling the truth, unless she comes with a fucking name for once, and no bullshit like is it a a? a b? a c? a d? im seeing a j? je no? ja? is it jake? jack, jacob etc. etc.

As for char's other youtube vids, check out "Char Margolis with Host Kelly Ripa", "Char Margolis Discussed on Live. July 2010", "This is amazing Char Margolis: Psychic Intuitive."and "Char Margolis amazes again". Psychics DO exist. U think all those ppl in Australia's or wateva country Most Gifted Psychics are all fake?? U take this vid as full evidence that they dont exist. That is why u guys are very narrow minded ppl and I feel sorry for all of u.

@trancefixed1 Psychics are not real, just simply naive and irrational. These con artists have been put up to the test several times through the years. When it comes to a controlled experiment they ALWAYS FAIL. Simply youtube: the amazing randi or James randi psychics. or better yet youtube Dawkins interviews Darren Brown. Brown tells all the secrets to what he does and how you fucktards fall for it.

Don't be a fool. Why do you think that spirits give out only the first letter of their name? Don't you think that if they were there they would do anything to give their name and personal information so that their love ones could believe?
Look at 0.53 minute.. Char says: Is it your mom? The woman says no it's my daughter.
When Larry just says that she is failing miserably at 2.24 minute, she says at 2.29 minute that she told that Mary was her daughter but she didn't.

i ask again, did u watch her other vids on youtube? I wanted to make another post shortly after, but youtube kept failing to post my comments. So hope this one works >.>. Anyway, watch her other vids. The way u talk though makes me assume u will come up with other excuses to say she is fake. She is not the only well known one..there is John Edward and Mitchell Coombes. One had his own show the other featured in Australia's Most Gifted Psychic. Both wrote their own books.
