Forget Rosie vs. Donald, It's Rosie vs. Barbara now!

All this does is continue to drive people to "The View", which is another reason why their ratings have gone up drastically since last year. Heck, I DVR-it just to see their "Hot Topics" segments.

Meanwhile at NBC, they are wishing Donald would just shut his yap because his new version of "The Apprentice" got its' clocked cleaned big time and came in 3rd that night. ABC and CBS beat him. In fact, I've read that Donald lost MILLIONS of viewers from the "Grease: You're the One That I Want" lead-in. I am not surprised because his previous season of "The Apprentice" didn't perform that impressively in the ratings.

If this keeps up, I expect NBC to tell him "You're Cancelled!" and/or they'll wrap up the season real darn quick. Donald's attempt to bring attention to his show before its' premiered failed miserably. Just like a few of his casino companies. Obviously he didn't see what happened to someone by the name of Tom Cruise when he went on his psycho-rants.

Right now, Donald YOU are the loser. Not Rosie.
 
I think that it is a solid tie between The Donald and Rosie as they are both acting like children. I don't watch either The View or The Apprentice but as you can see from both of them they just love the media. Donald says one thing, then Rosie fires back, and Baba Wawa is right in the middle of it, and back and forth it goes like a tennis game.

Rosie is not new to being a failure either with her talk show failing because of her rants and then her magazine went bust. So I would say that she is the pot calling the kettle black and vice versa.

It might help to have your facts straight when commenting so you know what you're talking about. Rosie's talk show was NOT a failure and it did not go off-the-air because of any of her "rants."

And I'd hardly call her magazine being a bust that big of a deal nowadays. It's not like she was the first -- or the last -- to realize that the magazine biz is just like any other biz subject to oversaturation.

I would say that her rants about gun control and totally insulting Tom Selleck and getting K-Mart to get rid of selling guns among other things would be considered since she herself has bodyguards who carry guns themselves at her kids' schools.

The ratings for her talk show were dropping as well at the time that she quit so she decided to bail out at just the right time. I would say it is just a matter of time that we see Rosie bail out of The View as well with either Rosie resigning or Baba Wawa doing it for her.
 
Too bad what you posted was an opinion piece. Opinion is not news, not fact, it's opinion, and that is all that it is.
 
FOX News for information? Could you get anymore tabloid and biased?

Fox News outrates all other cable news networks COMBINED in most time periods. Never has anyone but you called it "tabloid". It is the only news network that presents all points of view,

What you wrote is opinion not the "story". The story based on sources. So get your "facts" straignt.

Here's some more opinion (like your comments). Rosie will be out. This "drama" is just a short term ratings bump for "The View". ABC will tire of it just as the public will. Seen it a 1000 times before.
 
No mention of that God-awful WWE skit making fun of them? Vince McMahon is so desperate for a piece of this attention it's pathetic. I'm surprised Rosie and Donald ignored it. It's not like they've ever exhibited much self-control before.

This is what I hate about all news. All it is is an article stating the obvious. It doesn't SAY anything. So why bother writing it. Whether it's FOX or CNN it is not only opinion it's a stupid thing. It says, "Rosie may leave, rosie may stay, ABC may buy out Barbara out," that is like running a piece in the news that says "Hillary Clinton may run for president or Hillary Clinton may NOT run for president." Well duh??? Yeah it's news, it's facts but it says NOTHING by stating the only two things she can possibly do

And I love that side article in that link that says "Mary-Kate has nice meal in public." Wow I sympathize with anyone that has an illness the fact some teen billionaire eats food when 3/4 of the world goes to sleep hungry each nice is not the best use of a NEWS column or deserves space at all. Let the girl eat her food in peace and let's hear some actual NEWS.

And that means nothing when it comes to their presentation of news.

And that is YOUR opinion. And your opinion is seriously misguided. So you might want to tread carefully if you are going to call someone out for their opinion. Please cite examples where the other networks did not present all points of view (and the talking heads on various networks do not count as they are not "news programs", per se). I'll be waiting. Since news is my thang, I'll be the judge.
 
Who Cares?

I have to ask the question, who cares about Donald Trump and Rosie O’Donnell anyways? With everything going on in the world today it amazes me that time is wasted on comments made by two rich and egotistical individuals. Personally it sounds to me like this “feud” is nothing but a cheap stunt to promote The View, and apparently it is working.

So? We're talking about QUALITY of their "news"casts, not quantity of viewers.

If I could get 10 million people to watch me take a dump, would that make such a program a wonderful thing?
 
I would bet anything that if The Apprentice gets cancelled, Trump will file a lawsuit against NBC. He'll have absolutely no case and nothing to stand on, but I bet he will do it.
