Sarandon Disturbed By Event Cancellation

AP ^ | 02-28-03

[Scothia]

Once again, the apointed, anointed elite attempt to rescue us unwashed from our nonintellectual, non-NPR existence. How can we live without Sarandon et al to tell us how to think?

Two words, Susan: "ir" and "relevant".

[litany_of_lies]

So, Associated Pravda doesn't think it's relevant that Sarandon was going to get a $20,000 speaker's fee at a CHARITY event, and sanitizes that salient fact out of its reporting. How many conservative speakers in similar situations would be cut such a huge break by the AP?--NONE. No, there's no media bias.

It's called playing hardball, Susie -- the same thing you and your commie friends do to Dr Laura and the Boy Scouts. You can dish it out but you can't take it.

[OKSooner]

Yeah, she's disturbed, allright.

[Windcatcher]

Pfft. I mave Master's Degrees in *both* Physics and Engineering Science. The thought that an ACTRESS with a high school education dares presume to tell me how to think is a supreme insult. She is less than nothing.

[Professional]

I'd like to thank the United Way, but figure they had a motive other than patriotism, such as............$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ give me give me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Anamensis]

(56-year-old actress) Why do I secretly giggle everytime they mention her age?

You have to admit, she doesn't look a day over 54. ;^)

[Geezerette]

She's 56? Susan Saranwrap looks older than I do!! (and I'm over ten years her senior).

[DoughtyOne]

Well I like the premise. Good one.

[DoughtyOne]

Well it's actually pretty easy. lol

[RayChuang88]

Looks like Ms. Sarandon's whiner attitude is out in force.

Mind you, Americans don't care about your attitude, though.

[DoughtyOne]

And if I might be allowed, "dit" "to"! ;)

[ewing]

Yes, we are fully aware that Suzie is disturbed.

[jaycee]

I will remember poor Susan in my prayers tonight! NOT!

[TheSpottedOwl]

So little susie thinks all of us dumb people are now the powerful!! Wow!! And all of this time I thought she was the powerful. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Lololol! Yeah, just last month they held all us dumb people in complete contempt for supporting our country. She loses a couple of thousand bucks and reality hits home like a hellfire missile :-). We rock and the liberals/commies are gonna roll!

I'm troubled that you are saddened that Ms. saranon is disturbed. Personally, I'm gladdened that she has admitted that she is disturbed. It is the first step to mental health.

No. The SciFi channel has been going down hill since they started hiring Clintonistas. The programming changes have
been for the worse, on the whole, IMO.

Wait! They only waste .5 hours with that medium instead of an hour. (South Park did it better). Good bye Farscape!

Besides, I've generally been unhappy with any "Dune" treatment. Susie-Q just gave me an added incentive not to
waste my time.

I enjoy the B-Movie genre, but I somehow suspected that "CoD" was just plain bad.

Sarandon was going to speak at a luncheon fund raiser ($75-a-plate) in Tampa.

Assuming the caterer gets $40 per plate, publicity, tickets and printing cost another $10 per plate, we're left with a profit of $25 per plate.

To earn $20,000 at $25 per plate, they would have to sell 800 tickets. A luncheon with 800 people present in unlikely, so the money would have been better donated directly to the charity.

The St. Petersburg Times Fund, the newspaper's philanthropic arm, was the chief sponsor of the event and was going to pay Sarandon's $20,000 speaker's fee.
