<p>NEW YORK (AP) --  Phil Donahue struck back at MSNBC on Wednesday for his firing, suggesting the network was too quick to pull the trigger and that it might be trying to "out-fox Fox" with conservative voices.</p> <p>Donahue's political talk show, a distant third in the cable news ratings in his time slot, was abruptly pulled from the air after Monday's show. The show premiered last July 15.</p>

HEADLINE ON DRUDGE!

Dennis Miller really getting into it with Donahue. Dennis is not only funny...he is smart.

MSNBC viewers got a lively hour Wednesday night/late afternoon as Donahue came live from Los Angeles at 5pm PST/8pm EST with Dennis Miller as the guest for the hour. So much good stuff, but only so much time to transcribe it. But we got down some of the best parts. Miller so flustered Donahue that he went on a rant about how people like Miller are trying to "marginalize" liberals. Becoming a parody of himself, Donahue whined about how "you're making us to be some sort of wimpy kind of people who, woo, woo, we don't get it. We don't...

Look, Donahue's already off the primetime schedule, so it won't hurt too much to give the dipsh-t ratings. Maybe just tape it if you're being monitored by the Nielsen company. And Chrissy Matthews will have on Bernie Goldberg. Man, I love the Sweeps period!!!
