Randi Rhodes on Larry King NOW

[dancingme]

She says it was a comedy routine.

[Evergreen Emerald]

1. So was Imus's

[JoFerret]

3. That is the company she keeps

...too bad.
I have enjoyed many a RR rant. but - in the end - ranting helps no-one. We should leave the real ranting to the expert - Stephen Colbert. And seek a higher level of civil discourse.

7. That's a really creepy BO pic

.

[Cooley Hurd]

It's art...

:D

[JoFerret]

12. Um.

OK. If you say so.

It's not as creepy as the pics of him with MO. (And btw - I also find those John and Elizabeth pics truly creepy also. And I am an Edwards fan.

[Cooley Hurd]

17. Who's MO?

[JoFerret]

25. Michelle Obama

.

[Cooley Hurd]

29. Ohhh...

I thought you'd drag Larry into this... which isn't right.:D

[JoFerret]

36. It would not be right

...to drag Larry King kicking and kissing MO. I agree.

[Cooley Hurd]

39. ...or Curly!

:D:hi:

[TK421]

60. Why oh why does everyone leave Shemp out of the mix?

:cry:

[JoFerret]

62. So true

Unless they were both into it.

[Evergreen Emerald]

24. 1. I am not rodeodance 2. "private affair" is what got Kramer in trouble

3. It was an Obama event--even advertised on his website.

[Cooley Hurd]

33. Well, aren't I mistaken! Perhaps one mustn't "triad" to make assumptions...

:D:rofl:

[Evergreen Emerald]

45. I do not understand your response?

[Cooley Hurd]

47. Hellllllloooooo!

:hi:

[Evergreen Emerald]

50. I am totally missing something

?

[Cooley Hurd]

51. I'm ever so sorry. Forgive my triad...

:hi:

[rodeodance]

41. That poster has done this before--its deliberate (x-change of screennames)

[Cooley Hurd]

46. Lambchop!

10. GOOD POINT

[baldguy]

11. Imus was on the public airwaves.

Randi was at a private party in a club.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

13. False Point. Imus was broadcast to the public, This RR appearance was Private.

Big difference. Now, I've explained it to you, but sorry, I can't understand it for you.
~The Crux of Hillary lives on~

[stillcool]

18. "I can't understand it for you"..

34. Actually he was at a public comedy club

Randi was at a private function.

dg

[Evergreen Emerald]

37. A private function for Obama?

That is the scuttlebutt. I wonder why we are not hearing that on the MSM?

[WolverineDG]

63. From your trusted news source, FAUX

http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/04/10/host-randi-rhodes-resigns-from-air-america-after-anti-clinton-rant/

If it was somehow related to the Obama campaign, I'm sure FAUX wouldn't hesitate to say that, so stop making stuff up. Desparate much?

dg

[susankh4]

65. Pray tell?

I would like to hear more....

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

43. True, I don't work, I'm a stay at home Mom.

I do visit my Mothers' basement when there is laundry to be done over there, But have lived in my own home for 21 years.

As for the Obama site question~ Link?

[barb162]

48. Yep, and both deserved being fired.

[babylonsister]

2. And now she's off because of a breaking story AKA a commercial.

That was rude.

[Cooley Hurd]

6. Handy Switch! Much more important!

:crazy:

Billy Mays is our savior!:D

[babylonsister]

15. Billy Mays! Whatever he's sellin', I'm buying. Bank it.

:rofl:

[jillan]

31. Oh man! Don't do it!!!

I just ordered that garden auger thing....

What a RIP OFF!!

Stay away from Billy :dunce: <-------- that's me!

[Cooley Hurd]

52. But that beard is MAD!

:D:hi:

[WolverineDG]

32. Yeah, but managed to get out that AAR

(1) wanted to make a material change to her contract & when they didn't get that
(2) started shopping the story around to discredit her

Go Randi & Go NovaM!

dg

[proud patriot]

4. she rocked

:headbang:

[Purveyor]

8. Due to 'breaking news', Larry had to cut Randi's segment short but said he'll have her back next

week.

Randi is coming out of this 'smelling like a rose'!

:)

[JoFerret]

30. "Breaking wind' more like

....and no - RR will not smell like a rose. As a kind of RR fan I know ranting stinks.

[valerief]

9. Blink. It's over. Another everyday murder edged her out. I'm watching

Don't Forget the Lyrics now. Teevee never has any real news.

[backscatter712]

14. Censored by dead white woman.

That's CNN for ya...

[RememberWellstone]

16. What a whore.

She's on covering her own ass for her own actions. What a media whore.

[merwin]

20. You talking about Hillary?

Kidding... seriously though... you're ragging on her for covering her own ass regarding her whore comment, but then you call her a whore?

Pot, meet kettle.

[backscatter712]

21. I thought we were talking about Larry King and Dog the Bounty Hunter.

There's a pair of whores if I've ever seen them.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

23. Um, it either IS or ISN'T okay to call someone a whore.

I'm going with ISN'T.

Please make up your mind.

[RememberWellstone]

26. Just wanted to see it if the slipper fits

I wonder if she minds being called a whore? It's just my way of comedy.:evilgrin:

[baldguy]

27. It is OK

Just as long as its not aimed at Queen Hillary

[barb162]

49. Too bad they didn't fire her sorry ass before she quit.

[bookman]

57. What a whore

"A person considered as having compromised principles for personal gain."


Remind you of anyone.

[Upton]

19. I thought Randi looked good and handled herself well

no apologies either, I like that. Too bad she couldn't have been on for longer. I'll be listening to Nova M 3-6 from now on.

[Lint Head]

22. Oops! She's gone.

[jillan]

35. Larry said he will have her on again next week.

Even tho I didn't like her comments, I'm sorry to see what happened between
her and AAR.

I will always have a special place in my heart for Randi.
It was her that got me through Kerry's supposed loss. She kept saying that she didn't buy it and
that people don't vote against their best interests.
She was right.
She was my therapy.

[malik flavors]

38. She looked a lot cuter than I thought she would. Too bad she was cut short.

[Evergreen Emerald]

42. I can only imagine the outcry if someone on the public airwaves

called Obama racist names.

I can only shake my head at the hypocritical responses.

[bookman]

58. What public airwaves?

You sound like someone on Fox News when you say stuff like that.

[Evergreen Emerald]

68. right, just attack --that seems to be the Obama way.

Public airways: Air America

[bookman]

71. You just don't get it

The remarks were NOT made on the radio.


It appears Air America was just trying to force Randi to change her contract.


Stating facts: I guess that is the Obama way. I better watch out here comes the "sniper" fire.

We can disagree, but check out the facts. The comments were made at Green960 event (not an Obama event)and Air America management was trying to use them for their purposes. This is the corporate mentality that many of us are trying to change.

[CitizenLeft]

53. I'm listening to Malloy right now, Marc Maron subbing...

...and he's talking to Randi on the phone. He introduced her as NovaM's newest talk show host. Don't know if he was kidding yet or not... did she say that on Larry King? I didn't watch it...

[Garbo 2004]

59. NovaM is syndicating Randi. She'll be back on the air Monday on some of her previous affiliates.nt

[Cleita]

54. Yes, but Larry had to get back to an important "breaking story".

Actually, the story was over in the first three minutes. There wasn't anything to add to the new developments beyond that. So instead it was the repitition of that three minutes bloviated ad naseum into about 15 minutes because the story is a bit *sensational*.

Those are fifteen minutes he could have given Randi a forum to tell her side. However, CNN, the "fucking media whores" that they are have to compete with Fucked up News so this "breaking story" as salicious as it is was more important.

Okay suspend me. I used those words to tell a truth about CNN.

[IsItJustMe]

55. Sounds like AAR was using this as an excuse to get rid of her. Seemed she had a problem with them

wanting to change her contract and they used a Clinton remarks against her two weeks after it happened. Does not look good for AAR.

[AX10]

61. It's funny alright.

It's funny :rofl: because Randi has been fired!

[DemVet]

64. Everything she ever said on her show was a comedy routine.

She's an idiot.

[susankh4]

66. I've been a fan, off and on.....

but I've lost faith in her.

Too bad the Left feels it must go as far as the Right with insulting, over the top, behavior.....

[Mezzo]

67. If it were that simple (and I *AM* a Randi Rhodes fan)

then why didn't she apologize? No, this was something more. I've done stand up. If I told a joke that someone didn't like, or found offensive, I'd have no problem apologizing. If this were that simple, I'm sure she would have too.

[Tennessee Gal]

69. Randi went too far and I used to be a fan.
