Rosie O’Donnell May Join MSNBC–Kooks Watch TV Too…

The NY Times reports that Rosie O’Donnell is in talks and may soon have her own primetime show on MSNBC. Apparently MSNBC wants to be known as the network of the kook fringe.

Her show would replace “Live with Dan Abrams,” a relatively low-rated program that only recently replaced “Scarborough Country,” which was also little-watched.

Little watched? That ought to be the motto of the network…
Inside Cable News shows they don’t do well in the ratings at all…
549k is hardly challenging to Fox News’ 1.4 MILLION viewers…
As a matter of fact the vaunted NY Times has another
article only one day after the first, touting O’Donnell, that claims bashing the Bush admin helps MSNBC’s ratings, well… something had to, although is appealing to the likes of Kos readers and DUmmies really that great a victory? Is “We Cater to Kooks” their new rallying cry? I guess it is, and that is pretty sad when you think about it.
—UPDATE—
The fat one announces on her blog, in her typical illiterate fashion, that opening her big mouth blew the deal with MSNBC. I’m of two minds on this one, I want to point at the big ole Kook and laugh, but, at the same time, it would have been fun to watch her drag MSNBC (farther) down.
