As someone said on this site already,

Well, Salon sucks, for sure, but this writer is on target about Chung's show.

I tried to watch one episode last week, and turned it off after 15 minutes.

She appears totally inept, and is extremely rude to her guests.

Great post! This writer is funny and good, and apparently poor Connie is out to lunch. Yet I predict CNN will find it difficult to dump her.

Chung failed to grasp an Xbox reference, misinterpreted a remark he made about Sept. 11 and asked him, without a hint of irony, whether he'd been approached to replace Dan Rather or Peter Jennings.

"Are you serious?" Stewart asked, amazed.

"You're very good at anchoring," she purred. "I'm telling you, you really are. You do it very well."

Hahahahahhahahahahaha!!!!

I imagine that she will "take off to spend more time with Maury and the kids". You know, act as if it is all her choice.

[Blue Screen of Death]

She never was about talent. She was about diversity.

I did catch a few minutes of Connie's show the first week. It was pretty pathetic. She is off her stride, that is for sure.

Better title:

Connie Chunks Tonight

Liberal spew, that is.

What was really funny was the story Connie did on fat people having to pay for two seats on airlines.

Connie interviewed a man who was suing Delta (breach of contract) because he had to fly literally squished to the plane wall by an obese person in the next seat. The obese person took up at least half of the squished guy's seat. The squished guy said he had tried to move to another seat, didn't want to embarrass the obese person, was discrete and didn't make a scene, but ultimately ended up getting squished for 90 minutes--there were absolutely no other empty seats on that flight. The only reason he filed a lawsuit was that Delta totally ignored his calls and letters.

Connie's response was (not making this up): "Obviously, Mr. XXX, you have a problem being around overweight people."

ROTFLOLOLOL!!!!

In fifteen minutes, Connie cut off two guests at least ten times.

Chris Matthews does that A LOT. I'm glad he's on opposite Hannity and Colmes now; I'll never watch him again.

[Paul Atreides]

LOL!

Maury Povich and Connie Chung

She never was about talent. She was about diversity.

Well, then they will just have to keep their quota up and replace her will Michelle Malkin.

Yeah, about the time they replace Donna-who with Ann Coulter.

ROTFLMCO, this is a GREAT writer. Best, and funniest, review of the show I've seen so far.

Liberals (commies) have no...repeat...no sense! Now that we know how really delusional that they are, why don't we just let them waste Ted (the socialist clymer) Turner's money. Let's not bi9ch, just sit back and let the toilet flush!

"Good bye...sunshine..du du du...Good bye sunshine!"
