Rita: What Was Cosby Talking About?

"There's great consternation at 30 Rock tonight about Rita Cosby," a tipster said on Friday night. Some of her comments are just plain stupid -- like a reference to "50 foot waves" in Galveston, where she reported from today.
But apparently on Hardball she told some sort of story about the last time a hurricane named Rita came ashore. Did she really brag about getting a phone call from an official who told her that "we liked your coverage so much we're naming a hurricane after you?" After all, that's not the way hurricane names are chosen. Doesn't she know that -- and doesn't she know she should avoid embarrassing herself during a category three storm?
"There's some fear that somebody, maybe Howard Kurtz, is already on this," the tipster added...
> Update: 12:04pm: An e-mailer adds: "The best (?) part of the Matthews-Cosby is when Chris said she "looked like Dan Rather" reporting from storm. I did a spit take. That was before she gloated over how the weather service guys were "big fans" of hers."

We did not get MSLSD and I am so grateful I do not have to listen to her GRATING voice anymore.

I would listen to Rita Rudner (the comedienne) long before I would listen to that clown Rita Crosby

Why did FOX dump her? I take it you didnt read the article? Read it and see why. She has a bad habit of just making stuff up out of thin air.

Fox realized she was a talentless moron who makes people turn off their TV sets.
I heard they did not renew her contract when it came do.

Is she just reading or is she doing an investigative report? If she is just reading she my be at the mercy of the MSNBC writers. She may also be a female Ted Baxter.

I believe she wanted an expanded role on Fox and Fox refused to give it to her.
To: KeyLargo
She exceeded the max weight limit on the FNC stage.

This MAY be true but by virtue of the comparison between two idiots, the winner gains zippo.

Before She was on Fox, she was on WBTV in Charlotte, NC. There as a passenger plane that went down in Charlotte in the 1994. She was covering the accident from the studio. 37 people lost their lives. She would come on and keep saying "there were tons and tons of people killed". The next day she was no where to be found.

Tut-tut...those are "Exclusive Sources." I think her exclusive source is her ample behind.

I could not STAND Rita Cosby. Her voice is horrible and her manner is annoying. Thanks to Fox for taking her off. However, I love Brit and Lorie Dhue.
