There Goes The View
Not that I could stand the show as it was, it now appears that Rosie O’Donnell is to become the next co-host on the show. She is said to be the replacement for Meredith Vieira, who is the replacement for Katie Couric, who is the replacement for Bob Schiffer, who is the replacement for Dan Rather!
O’Donnell’s appointment was reported Thursday by the newsmagazine “Extra.” It was confirmed by a person close to the show who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because “The View” wanted to make the announcement on Friday’s show.(I would guess that the leak is Joy, as she reported the departure of Vieira in her standup routine 3 days prior to Walters announcing it on air)
ABC officials declined comment on the report on Thursday. (Joy must not be considered official)
Dubbed “The Queen of Nice” when her syndicated talk show went on the air in 1996 and became an instant hit, O’Donnell won six Daytime Emmy Awards in six years as best talk-show host. She left the show to help raise four children with her partner, Kelli Carpenter O’Donnell.
It’s an important appointment for “The View,” which was created by Barbara Walters. Vieira’s news background helped make her the solid center of the program on the days Walters didn’t appear on air.
So is Rosie going to do the hard news? Or maybe yell at Tom Selleck again? Or maybe she can develop new phobias to bore the audience with!

Rosie O’Donnell is STILL a Nazi for her hypocritical stance on guns.

There are never too many reasons!

Your right about that one rocky i mean she was the leader of the so called MILLOIN MOM MARCH the one who said that gun owners should be sent to jail then gets a gun for her adopted childs bodyguard. Frankly these wealthy socialists like her should just go live in another country where they are welcomed like CUBA or SAN FRANCISCO:mad:

So another fat, bloated, lesbian liberal blowhard joins the ranks of the MSM…
why does this surprise anyone?

I saw a picture taken from her cruiseship and she reminded me of the Skipper from Gilligans Island!
I don’t care if she is a lesbian, it was the fact that at least once every 6 months, she had a new revalation! And it was always in the form of a money making way to explain it!
I would love to know the statistics of the chances of a parent having not 1 but 2 gay children that were born to the same parents…that is rather odd. Both she and a brother are gay.

I really don’t care is she’s gay either, she’s an annoying fuckbag.

Another milestone in the decline and fall of the television MSM. What an honor! She now gets to take the seat once held by propagandist Dan Blather.
On the other hand, look what they get: Rosie O’Dumbbell.
April 28, 2006 - 08:54 AM on April 28th, 2006
Why is her head so big?

All, people are LAUGHING at your extreme paranoia over this whole MSM thing.
You don’t like what you hear in the news, so you take your ball and go home and make up your own news. Weak.
Why not work from within, why not rise up the ranks and take control of the NYT editorial board or something?
Why go out of your way to create right-wing websites or newspapers that only right-wingers read? Isn’t that a bit, I dunno…crazy?

Must be a very strong gay gene in her family.

Why does that matter? Should lesbians NOT join the ranks of “MSMâ€?
Not if they are the same, run-of-the-mill lefties idiots like rosie…
Why are liberals soooo against diversity in the media? It’s perplexing.

I won’t watch Rosie O’Dumbass.
Hey,, no one is listening to YOU. You see how pitiful SCAMAmerica’s ratings are? You doofuses can’t even rate in NYC!!!!
I know, , that you left wing doofuses are incapable of accepting that it is you that people are laughing at in greater numbers than you have.
