I would pay NOT to have to see or hear Simon Cowell.

What a self-important joke.

People don’t necessarily pay to see HIM.

They do WATCH HIS SHOWS and the “stars” he discovers and promotes.

Limbaugh’s earnings are not accurate!

He makes close to ten million a month off of his own brands and promotions.

And some of those sponsors came back asking to be re-hired and Rush said no.

I don’t personally care for anyone who Simon, Howard, Howie, or any other hack thinks has talent. What talent do they have beside being loud and obnoxious?

Righteous are You, O Lord, when I plead with You; yet let me talk with You about Your judgments. Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why are those happy who deal so treacherously?
(Jeremiah 12:1)

Why do the wicked live and become old, yes, become mighty in power? Their descendants are established with them in their sight, and their offspring before their eyes. Their houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God upon them. Their bull breeds without failure; their cow calves without miscarriage. They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance. They sing to the tambourine and harp, and rejoice to the sound of the flute. They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave. (Job 21:7-13)

“Lord, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?” (Psalm 94:3).

I’ve heard of Simon Cowell but don’t have the first clue what he does.Howard Stern....I’ve seen portions of a couple of interviews he’s *given* (60 Minutes,IIRC) and he struck me as being a *very* intelligent guy.I think he could probably make a *very* good living without resorting to the gutter stuff for which he’s famous.

It’s hard to believe they can charge advertisers enough to pay for the trash these people put out. Even Glenn is getting pretty far out there. But, at least, it’s not vulgar.
