Adopting a tone of totally respectable, upstanding pillar of the best kind of community, he reviewed his yesterday's claims that he has not lost *any* advertisers, that even if he has lost any at least two or three are *begging* to come back but are being reviewed very VERY carefully (you know, rehabilitated, water boarding), and that there are only two ways to be a sponsor, one directly, the second through local stations of which the 18,000 local sponsors are not known to him.
So he didn't review yesterday's analogy that losing 30 or 40 sponsors is like dropping a couple of French fries in a drive through, not to be noticed.
And with all that said, besides that he's debutting three or so brand new sponsors in a couple of weeks, he said that the media has gone wild with these stories of lost sponsors, that a Washington Post article is totally false in claiming he has two sponsors that are websites for cheating on spouses.
At this point he took on the doncherknow uppercrust tone, saying that those two websites have never ever been his sponsors and never will over his inflatable body, nuh-uh, nosies. Funny how the "entertainer" stuff stopped completely. He has STANDARDS, you people, STANDARDS!1
Oh, and yesterday when he gloated over KUCHINICH's loss, he claimed his staff was telling him that that KUCINICH's wife was really going to be missed and he asked them, "I've never seen her. Are you saying she's a babe?!1 I don't notice babes anymore because I've got one!1 They totally don't register with me at all."

(14,177 posts)apparently he screens everything he says for truthiness and if it has a even a whiff of it, he makes sure it doesn't air.

(2,686 posts)It won't feel that way to the local stations that have to put up with his unprofitible bulk. They are the ones who are going to say, "You know, let's just find someone else to fill this slot." Either his ego is so big he can't admit the problem, or he doesn't care.
