In an announcement planned for later today, it was learned that ABC will hire conservative Ann Coulter to replace Rosie O'Donnell on "The View".
A spokesperson for ABC said, "While exceptionally talented Progressive Rosie O'Donnell was an excellent catalyst for high ratings and lifted us to the pinnacle of daytime television with her wit, charm, warm personality and ability to present rational, thoughtful insight to issues of the day and we'll truly miss her, we think Ann will show America the polar opposite of rational thought with her deep rooted, albeit incorrect, conservative beliefs. We think her conservative views will not only provide much needed comedy relief, but it will enable those who have no jobs and nothing better to do than stay home all day, eating Bon Bon's and watching shows such as "The View", to be better equipped to vote for the Democratic of their choice on election day."
They continued, "We want everyone out there to know that by hiring Ann, we're proving we're a fair and balanced network and do not favor one party over the other."
Developing...
Ha ha...don’t get my hopes up...
Is this your opus?
IS THIS TRUE!? I’ll have to watch the view. When does it come on, I’ve never ever watched iot before.
Riiiiight.
oops...wow...guess i should read the whole article first, THEN post...lol
We all know that a 100 pound Ann will never fill a 300 pound Rosie's spot.
I see this isn’t from the Onion!? Makes me wonder if they think they can just use her as the dumb conservative straight man. Pounce on her when she says something they think is over the top. They’ll be surprised.
I’d actually watch The View if it had Ann Coulter and Michelle Malkin on it. Especially if they had a very special Jello Wrestling segment.
opps - me too! It would be fun to watch though. (BTW - what exactly IS a bon-bon?)
That’s a much fit for her.
She’s quite disappointing as a writer/columnist whereas, although I’ve never seen her on TV (don’t own one), people I respect have told me she was quite impressive during the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
Some people are like that — their oral skills far outstrip thier ability to write.
Good for her. She’s been floundering lately. This should help her get back into a more stable situation.
Barbara doesn’t like to be contradicted or made to look dumb. I can’t see her going up against Ann on live TV. Ever.
One classic bon-bon is a small ice cream ball, hard frozen, then dipped into melted chocolate and refrozen. There are any number of variations.
riiiiight....LOL!
opus was great on the andy griffith show..wait, that was opie..sorry..
This absolutely has to be a hoax. ABC (the Mickey Mouse “network”) would never have Ann on even as a “guest host” though come to think of it, Ann would have had a ball being on against the Rosie.
