I guess there’s just not that much demand for the rantings of a bitter dyke.

Wow, even that relatively small number of Rosie fans, who tuned in to her new show, tuned out pretty quickly.

She lost half her audience that quickly????

Maybe Rosie is too liberal/too loud/too abrasive/too something, and gets on people’s nerves?????

At some point, Rosie will not be able to contain herself and will lash out at Oprah. It will spark a catfight worthy of pay per view.

By Rosie-— now can you take that little clownfaced Bill Maher with you too? What a purge of the airwaves that would be.
