NEW YORK (AP) --

Another meeskeit on her way to oblivion.

Two decades of boring is two too many.

[small voice in the wilderness]

Pity. I'll miss those red glasses holding back the flood gates of tears and compassion. Perhaps she could do a show on daytime talk show hosts who get canceled because of low ratings.
"I'm a guest. I'm a host. I'm a guest. I'm a host...."

Thank God that another Museum of mordern societal decay is ending...

"I think she was at her best when she had a box of Kleenex on the table right next to her and everyone was sharing these emotional moments," said Bill Carroll, an expert on the syndication market for the Katz Television Group.

Could ya pass the Kleenex this way? I don't think I can handle life without Sally.

I had no idea she was still on.

Relationship issues were her forte, though this occasionally got her in trouble: one impostor who claimed to be a surrogate sex partner had earlier gone on Winfrey's show as a wife who hated sex.

Yeah, you gotta screen 'em a little better than that. More seriously, I recall SJR as being a toe tag liberal. Wasn't she the one who whined and moaned about having to present broadcasting awards to Rush Limbaugh? She won't be missed.

Sally Jessy Raphael's daytime talk show, the longest-running of its genre, has been canceled after nearly two decades on the air.

Yippee skippee!

[Constitution Day]

Maybe Sally can get a job down here in N.C. working for Erskine Bowles in his US Senate campaign!
(word on the street is he needs more liberals with tremendous glasses)

4CJ thank God those girls of yours won't have that filth trying to brainwash them.

[4CJ]

I do thank God - and I can't honestly say that I'll miss her show. But I could if I lied.

[nmh]

One less liberal on TV. Great news. One thing about liberals, they'll exploit, use and abuse anyone when it's to their financial gain. This one made a sport out of peoples tragedies.

[usslsm51]

Now for a couple more to end up in the same trash can.

[freedomson]

I dunno if it's still on but, I used to love her radio call-in show.

[SerpentDove]

Good riddance.

[Thinkin' Gal]

Trailer parks are flying their flags at half staff.

"She was known for her distinctive red glasses. "

Well, she certainly wasn't known for any recognizable talent.

[anniegetyourgun]

OOO - that's scary....separated at birth?

[CaptRon]

LOL!

Just my luck. I go on vacation in a couple of weeks and I would have had time to watch.
