Fox News: Why ABC Didn't Ax Rosie O'Donnell
Rosie got pushed out by ABC. Was it the grabbing the crotch and shouting "Eat me"? Probably not. As grotesque as that command was, as awful as that image may be, it was probably just a gag-inducing moment that only confirmed what the ABC suits and Barbara Walters had already decided. They had to have decided she must go because of one reason: her insistence on pushing 9/11 conspiracy nutter theories on national network television, a deeply embarrassing thing for any self-respecting network, especially one that is vying for the top spot in the evening news wars.
That's Fox News yakker John Gibson, revealing the reason behind Rosie O'Donnell's exit from 'The View.' Except, you know, it's totally not the reason. Gibson again: "If there's any justice in this world, here is what happened in the Rosie deal behind the scenes, where we won't find out the details until the next National Enquirer hits the supermarkets." Oh, so it's more of a theory, something you want to be true. Like evolution. Or WMDs.
