If a tree falls in the woods, does anyone hear it?

If a Donahue gets axed by PMSBSNBC will anyone know it???

These deep philosophical questions need answers someday.

MSNBC, averaging 392,000 viewers in prime time, is a ratings embarrassment for GE. Fox News Channel draws 1.5 million viewers, and CNN draws 983,000.

Pretty staggering statistics considering Fox News is not available to nearly as many cable customers as these leftist hacks.

I haven't watched MSNBC at all since they canceled "Alan Keyes is Making Sense."

If Donahue gets the ax, it'll be the strongest indication yet that star power alone doesn't make you a hit on cable

Conservativism and personality are the key ingredients if you ask me.

After his recent horribly biased anti-gun show, Phil Dinosaur's demise can't come too soon.

Bye, bye, bugeyes. Don’t let the doorknob hit you in the arse on the way out.

Saturday Night Live had a brutal sketch on Donahue this past Saturday (interesting because MSNBC is of course an NBC property).

Guests were "Al Sharpton", who repeatedly explained that the show's ratings were bad because: "People don't like you, Phil."

"Barbra Streisand" appeared behind a lens so heavily covered with Vaseline she was almost invisible.

And a disgusting "Michael Moore" explained that he essentially never bathes and never changes his clothes - he just gets new clothes once a year because he grows into a larger size.

When it was time to cut to commercials, all that appeared was the MSNBC logo with "Your Ad Here."

When a skit like this appears, it's time to start making new career plans.

averaging 392,000 viewers in prime time

A geographic breakdown on these viewers would probably show they live in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Boston.

This article fails to acknowledge that his exit is due more to the fact that he's a liberal wacko, than to any other factor.

Goodbye Phil, for the last time.

"Saturday Night Live" did a Donahue spoof this past weekend. When Donahue (played by Darrell Hammond) checked his own ratings on live TV, up came three shows. In the ratings, Donahue was beating a 24 hour eye-surgery channel, but was trailing the Palestinians For a Better Israel channel (or something like that). Anyway, Donahue was not the worst show on cable, just the second worst.

When Donahue took a break for commercials, a blue screen came up and showed something like "To advertise here, please call 212-555-5555".

Not only should DonaWho be BANISHED from the airwaves,this Mega-Liberal should be required to re-build the house that he and Marlo purchased for the specific purpose of tearing it down to improve their view.Furthermore,this house should be given to The Homeless(and their ilk)whom they profess so much affection for(with OUR tax-dollars)!!!!!

"Donahue was the subject of a biting NBC Saturday Night Live parody Saturday in which Darrell Hammond played the liberal talk-show host.

This was actually pretty funny!
They sure had his lieberal bias down pat!

As Darrell Hammond said in the SNL spoof, Dona-who?'s audience is so low that it's within the margin of error of the ratings service . . . which means that there's no guarantee that anyone is watching the show.

Goodbye Phil.
