No MSNBC Show for Bloated Troofer

They claim it's over money.

Two bucks is too much for this nonentity. Then again, they apparently pay Keith Olbermann to make a idiot out of himself on national television, so one can only wonder what they're sniffing over there.
Contrary to reports, there will be no Rosie O’Donnell show on MSNBC.

According to sources, Rosie and the struggling cable network have ended talks. They apparently could not reach an agreement on money or the length of a contract, with Rosie remaining steadfast in her desire not to commit to more than one year.

And don’t believe that it was because O’Donnell mentioned the negotiations last week in public that MSNBC scotched the deal. In the end, it was about money.

The network couldn’t afford to make a deal for Rosie just based on a nighttime show. It would have to have been tied into something else on daytime. The problem with that? O’Donnell doesn’t want to return to a grueling daytime schedule while her kids are in school.

Ironically, O’Donnell is just what MSNBC needs to pick up its flagging ratings. Her popularity continues to zoom in numbers some six months after she left "The View." On Tuesday night, she sold out Avery Fisher Hall without breaking a sweat.

People pay money to see this trainwreck? Go figure.

And what the heck is grueling about sitting around with a pack of yentas flapping your gums over some idiotic conspiracy theories?

Carrying her immense girth around, now that can be grueling.

Via Hot Air.
