Rosie O'Donnell & Don Imus Team Up for Political Show?
National Ledger ^ | Jun 15, 2007 | Brenda Jones

Mike Walker of the National Enquirer claims that may just happen. The veteran columnist report this week on what he dubs a "top-secret shocker calculated to rock TV’s world.

He reports that Fox network execs are waving big bucks at a wildly controversial "Dream Team" duo, wooing them to co-host a political/news show that’ll trigger ratings nightmares for rival nets.

He writes: "Sounds insane, you say? That’s what take-no-prisoners loudmouth Rosie said - until Fox corporate-jetted her to the Imus Ranch in New Mexico for a secret meet-and-greet. Incredibly, she and the acid-tongued radio talk vet hit it off, and Rosie - who’s famed for children’s charity efforts - was impressed by Imus’ program for cancer-stricken kids at the ranch."

It's not a done deal but according to the report it is possible. "Sensing mutual chemistry, Rosie - who admittedly prefers working solo - and Imus, who’s burning to scorch CBS for firing him, agreed to explore the deal with Fox honchos!"

Move o'Reilly opposite Hardball and put this against Olberman. In two months Keith would be fired and they'd be running yet another prison documentary in the MSNBC slot.

Why on Earth would you want that? Imus and Rosie are two Democratic dingbats.

I’d give anything to hear Imus call Rosie O’Fatass a nappy-headed ho on air.

Sensing mutual chemistry,p. Hmmm. I'm not a chemist but what do you get when you mix pig sh!t with dog sh!t? I guess it was the smell that was mutual.

I don’t believe a word of it. Sarcasm comes in many forms.

Rosie has self-combusted on all the shows she’s been involved in — her own talk show, her Broadway show, The View. After 3-strikes-you’re-out, who would want to give her another chance? Unless you just want to see her self-combust again. Everything she touches goes bad. Would The Price Is Right really want to give her a chance to ruin their long-standing game show? Same with a political show. She’s too volatile, too emotional - and we recently found out she’s been on anti-depressants. I think a lot of her meltdown may have to do with the prescription drugs. Why would anyone want to risk having her ruin their show?

Isn't Fox starting up a business channel? Perhaps this will be the "morning show" to start the day. One can only imagine what O'Doughgirl looks like at 5 a.m.

I don’t care if this does come on Fox, I’m not watching these obnoxious people. I refused to watch them singly and I certainly won’t watch them together. Fox News Channel has gone nuts!
