After quitting The View last week over her fight with Elisabeth Hasselback Rosie O’Donnell has gone on to post a video on her site detailing her side of the outcome. She’s mainly entertaining questions from readers, some good, some bad. It’s mostly the same rhetoric we’ve heard from O’Donnell before.
Despite Rosie’s claims in the video that she “never tried harder to be someone’s friend” she has decided that she may never speak to Hasselback again. Rosie says they have exchanged emails and Hasselback even called and spoke with O’Donnell’s partner, Kelli, but Elisabeth didn’t get through to the queen bee. She says that during the argument she saw on one of the monitors they had gone to the dueling views. “When I saw the split screen I knew it was over.” Rosie felt it made it more like Jerry Springer’s show than The View.
Somehow I doubt that Elisabeth Hasselback could possibly care if she gets to hear from Rosie again or not. So what’s next for Rosie? Well she’s always got her made-for-TV movie career to fall back on!
You can check out Rosie’s home video on her site.

Bob Barker Won’t Be Picking the Next Host | Wild Bluff Media : Entertainment Examined
May 29th, 2007 at 1:00 pm[...] Not sure why they wouldn’t at least amuse him with getting some input from him as he must have some clue on how to make that show work. Whoever it ends up being one thing is sure, it won’t be a woman as Barker indicated they weren’t considering a host of the fairer sex. Well that cuts right through my big hopes of Rosie crashing that party now that she’s freed up some extra time. [...]

I don’t know about you but I quit watching the show, when they brought Rosie on. I think she’s one of the most brash irritating women on TV. She has no class or couth. Now that she’s gone, I’ll tune back in.

Rosie has definitely taken on the abrasive stance with most things these days. It’s so hard to believe she was ever that nice sweet lady from her old talk show. I sometimes get the feeling she just likes to say things to get people worked up.
Personally, I’m glad she’s gone because she spews such bogus junk that I get worried people believe her. Rosie embodied the approach of “say it loud enough and people will think you know what you’re talking about”. Just the other week she was complaining about Alberto Gonzalez and the job he was doing as “the head of the Judicial Branch”. Sigh. She’s certainly entitled to her opinions, but she shouldn’t have such a high podium when she’s so ignorant, it’s dangerous.

I stopped liking her about the time she went on the attack with Tom Selleck on her so-called funny Rosie show. She brought him on with the idea of promoting his newest movie, and then ranted about the NRA and asked him how he could live with himself….yadayadayada.
It was a classic bait and switch, which Tom handled with class even though you could tell he wanted to throttle her. I think most of America would have cheered him on!

Wow. I totally missed that. I’d definitely have to side with Selleck over Rosie. He is Magnum P.I. after all!

She handled herself much like she did on the View, except Tom didn’t take the bait and return the heated nasty comments.
I took offense A) because he’s magnum..uh..hello and B) because I’ve met him in person and he’s such a humble guy. He didn’t deserve that treatment.
As always…love your site. Always good stuff here.
