2. I disagree.
Discussing the pros and cons of Kevin Ferderline's new rap album is way ssssoo much more important.

6. LOL
WTF - we just got back from the dog park and I turned on CNN and this is the story they are going with? This isn't news, it isn't even entertainment. Ah well, it's time to mute the TV and start streaming progressive radio again to find out what's really happening in the world.

7. Anyone catch Daryn Kagen's jab at the view
" we will be airing this conveniently in the 11 Et time slot." THE SAME TIME AS THE VIEW!!!! oh snap Daryn Kagen...you really know how to give it to ABC. This whole situation is soooo lame.

9. apparently they turned her down for "The View"
I guess "The View" won't sink so low as to hire Rush's ex-girlfriend.

10. CNN Headline News is calling Barbara Walters a LIAR.
Which is a lie, because Star Jones lied her ass off in that interview with Lizard Larry. I used to watch the View, and last night Star Jones lied repeatedly. She's a fool for doing it, too - how often do you see that Debi Metanopolis who was fired from the show? Maybe she'll end up at Faux, where she belongs.

11. yeah, why did they do that?
I mean it's almost like they're saying that Star Jones BS is more important than anything else that is happening now.

Btw, did anyone see Kevin Spacey on TDS last night? He said he has been living in London for a few yrs and he made an interesting comment. He said the news here is always presented as if it's entertainment.

And on the subject of Star, why does she always talk so slow? I mean it's like she's trying to explain something to a 2 yr old.....

13. I thought there was something wrong with my Dish satellite
So, even though there is a new Osama tape, CNN thinks this shit with Star Jones is the most important news of the day?
