Rooney has been riding the, "crusty old curmudgeon" persona for a good part of that 55 years with CBS and it's starting to wear as thin as Rather's claims of being a journalist. How in the hell CBS ever allowed it's news operation to become dominated by a cabal of seventy and eighty year olds must be a fascinating tale of board room intrigue and decades without adequate corporate oversight.
Personally, I think Sumner would be just as happy to see them all die on the job than to be bothered with a house cleaning.

I thought this was a joke---it turns out Andy Looney actually said this.

Pathetic.

If Sumner had to fire them...well, can you say lawsuits for age discrimination?

WE'RE IGNORANT OF EVERYONE ELSE'S PROBLEMS??? HOW DARE HE!

Did anyone hear about a movie this summer called "A Day Without A Mexican?" The premise was what would happen if every Mexican, legal or illegal left California. Interesting idea.

I think there should be a similar movie called, "A Day Without America" What would the world be like if America left every Country, and took all its financial support with it. I am so freakin sick of these America haters I just want to spew all over them.

Thank you.

Apparently no one has told the old fart about 24 hour cable news: CNN, Fox News Channel, MSNBC, Cnn Headline News, CPSAN, CSPAN2, CNBC, etc.

If I were Sumner Redstone, I'd do away with the evening news ALTOGETHER. Nobody watches his channel..it's a money loser. It would show his investors he was serious about turning the network around.

"If CBS News was on the air every night for an hour, it might make people forget this mistake."

This is the equivilant of your pharmacist saying, "Okay, I screwed up and gave you the wrong medicine...go home and triple the dosage."
