One additional interesting tidbit from the interview. In explaining why the publishers made a mistake in lowering the subscription price, Rosie said:

"I told the publishers that in any case there'd be 2 million people who would subscribe regardless of the price. I knew this because there were two million people who bought my CD even though I can't sing, and who bought my Barbie doll even though I'm not exactly the most beautiful woman in the world."

Leaving aside the Barbie doll, this does raise the question: what kind of standards or ethics do you have, Rosie, putting out a CD which you knew to be of poor quality?

Weren't you just exploiting your loyal, gullible followers for profit? Isn't this exactly the kind of grasping, greedy, exploitive behavior that you and your fellow Dems condemn in corporate America?

My wife, to her understandable embarassment, was getting the Rosie mag for free. She never asked for it, she didn't buy Rosie's CD (didn't know it existed) and she no longer plays with dolls.

She made good use of it, at the bottom of our parrot's cage. Too bad they won't be sending it any longer.
