ROSIE TRYING RADIO (Failure is Not Enough!)
NY Post ^ | 9.27.04 | John Mainelli

Posted on 09/27/2004 6:34:26 AM PDT by IncPen

-snip-

The former daytime TV star — who recently launched a gay- family cruise line — is trying out a talk show tomorrow night by subbing for Jim Bohannon Bohannon is syndicated by Viacom/CBS's Westwood One, causing rampant industry speculation that the network is testing O'Donnell for her own radio show.

"I think she'd do fine because she's a colorful, offbeat, opinionated character with a showbiz background, but strong interests in politics and controversial lifestyle issues," said Talkers magazine publisher Michael Harrison.

"However, radio is very demanding," said Harrison, warning that a three-hour talk show, live each day, is not the cakewalk that a batch of pre-taped, hour-long TV shows can be.

It's a new trend, no doubt jump-started by the fact that radio superstars can now command movie-star money, thanks mainly to the economics of a hyper-consolidated industry.

A celebrity with the Grim Reaper's touch...

It's a new trend, no doubt jump-started by the fact that radio superstars can now command movie-star money, thanks mainly to the economics of a hyper-consolidated industry.

Presumably, someone has to actually listen to them before anyone makes any money...

Rosie's "wife" must want her out of the house.

The only positive is we won't have to look at that mug of hers.

This left blob of goo just will not go away. She is like some 1950's Blob movie. Some part of her always survives to make an evil comeback.

And she's a big fat lesbian.

The words "lickety-split" conjures up a very disturbing image.

Rosie just doesn't have the fan base she did when she was not known as a fat lefty lesbian. Remember her constant cooing over Tom Cruise? That was an act, but it appealed to the housewifves and other normal Americans and made Rosie somewhat human. But that act was just an act being pushed as the truth, so if fact, it was a lie.

The average American doesn't have much use for a fat lying lesbian, so I don't think Rosie will get a wide audience, ever on radio. It's like the old saying: She made her bed...
