Buh-bye, Whoopi: Another failed liberal talk radio venture

"Whoops!"

Just weeks after claiming she would reshape her faltering radio program to focus on a New York City audience, Whoopi Goldberg has now been cancelled even there.

According to press and trade reports today, Wake Up With Whoopi was yanked from WKTU-FM today without warning, other than a brief note sent to staffers mere hours before the change. Poor ratings were cited by the station.

Recently, after similar results led to terminations in Chicago and Philly, your Radio Equalizer speculated that Whoopi’s radio days appeared numbered. Now, one can easily expect the syndicated program to be shut down, perhaps in the next few days.

Whoopi Goldberg’s radio show gets yanked *ping*

[linn37]

She had the face for radio but not the voice.

[YourAdHere]

Guinan didn’t see this coming?

[jdm]

She's too busy doing The View anyway. That's where she gets seen and heard the most (by a LONG shot).

[theDentist]

I recall something about them giving her a radio show, saying she’d be more “tolerant” and “humorous” with her callers. But I thought the show fell thru and never made it to air.

[alicewonders]

She had the face for radio but not the voice.

Exactly. I think waking up to the sound of Whoopi's voice in the morning would be like waking up to the sound of someone using sandpaper on your teeth.

Flanked by Cybill Shepherd and Ashley Judd.

[garyhope]

Are the rumors that the Whoppster does not bathe regularly and sometimes “passes gas” freely and with no restraint true?

I don’t wanna think about it.

[raccoonradio]

btw I think her real name is Caryn Johnson, for those who
were wondering what parent would even name their kid
Whoopi.

[bill1952]

These metro areas where the liberals like whoopie have so miserably failed are in fact, heavily liberal areas themselves, but I don’t see any explanation for those poor ratings forthcoming from the media powers that be.

[Greg F]

Hard to fake intelligence and knowledge with a regular radio program.

[Greg F]

She had the face for radio but not the voice.

Good one!

[jmyrlefuller]

This is old news; she was yanked from WKTU four weeks ago. The show is still on the air in a few peashooter markets (Good morning Muskegon!)...

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Ted Danson is deeply saddened.

[JRios1968]

Another one...

[John123]

Please take your bush with you and don’t let the door hit you on the way out...

Wake Up With Whoopi

Waaake up, Whoopi, Whoopi wake up.

[Red Badger]

When are the libtards gonna learn that nobody wants to hear their crap?..........oh wait, they’re libTARDS..........

[RexBeach]

The lefties already have a network: NPR. And we pay for it.

Too bad, Whoopi, we hardly knew ye.

[lapster]

I normally try to refrain from commenting on someone’s unfortunate appearance in these threads, but I have to say that I have always found Whoopi Goldberg one of the most repulsive looking women on the face of the earth. How Ted Danson could look at that gargantuan butt and say, “I’ve got to have some of that” is simply beyond me. Saw her once being interviewed sitting on a toilet and thought I would throw up.

The Dixie Chick marketing strated of Hate America/GW/ takes out another liberal pseudo entertainer.

Whoopi is not funny. She is a foul mouthed creature, who is tolerated because she is a black/liberal woman.

[bannie]

She was funny in Ghost.

[bannie]

Her legs, especially, made me laugh.

[Rummyfan]

Geez! Who even knew she was on the air?

[reagan_fanatic]

[Grampa Dave]

She was, and I don’t remember any hate America bs from her vile mouth in that movie.

[polymuser]

I suspect neolibs don’t really care to listen to anyone but themselves talk, unless it’s really nasty. Are neolibs even functional in the morning?

If it was, it was subliminal.

She was also kinda' funny in Jumping Jack Flash.

"I don't really view communism as a bad thing." -- Whoopi Goldberg

What's a 100 million people killed when you're trying to save the planet?

[Grampa Dave]

Excellent summary of what this vile woman really believes in:

"I don't really view communism as a bad thing." -- Whoopi Goldberg. What's a 100 million people killed when you're trying to save the planet?

[weegee]

Well the abortion movement is right to put someone who’s had 6 or 7 abortions (she herself lost count) in charge of protests...

[weegee]

Jane Fonda saw Communism as a GOOD thing and that we should be living under the thumb of Communists.

[Grampa Dave]

Fonda is the poster girl for liberal Follywooders, who hate America.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

I suppose this would count as her 8th abortion?

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Exactly. I think waking up to the sound of Whoopi's voice in the morning would be like waking up to the sound of someone using sandpaper on your teeth.

Of course, if she were on our side, her voice would be considered as sweet as the voice of Ann Coulter. :-)

Snicker

[Publius6961]

Liberals and progressives are so self-centered that they absolutely believe that their ignorant rantings are popular beyond their immediate insane asylum venue...

Reality is a bitch...

[redstates4ever]

Great summation. Reminds me of how the (liberal Manhattanite) film critic Pauline Kael was stunned uopn learning that Nixon got elected in 1972. Her reasoning? “Nobody I know voted for him”.

[SoFloFreeper]

Her show was canceled because no one listened.

I only wish NPR and PBS were held to the same standard.

[BigCinBigD]

What kind of a name is..Whoo-Pi?
