Rosie's view
Rumor has it that Rosie will announce today that she's leaving The View. Update: she did announce it. She also stated, rather quietly, I thought, that it was because the brass wanted her to sign for three years and she only wanted one. Between the absurdity of that idea and the suddenly quiet tone of her voice, I'm willing to bet that was the story they agreed she would tell and then everyone would look peachy. I'm also willing to bet that the real story is more about her going right over the edge, not just up to it, when she grabbed her crotch and said 'eat me' while talking to young women who were receiving awards. I'm a huge fan of free speech and free market but if Imus can't be extremely rude and racist then why can she? In a less semi-nanny world, they'd both be left out there and we could see if viewers and listeners really would avoid them, which is an approach I'd prefer, but they didn't ask me (as usual).
