Random Media Thoughts

10.) Lou Dobbs leaves CNN. A suprise to no one, Dobbs seemed to go off the rails promulgating the Obama birthers story long-after his own network dropped it.

9.) Normally straight-down-the middle Brian Williams really made me cringe by closing his broadcast with a softball interview with Jon Bon Jovi as someone who made a difference. Please. So the singer gives of his time and money to the unfortunates. Know what that makes him? It makes him sleep better at night.

8.) David Spade must really need the money. Why else would he appear on a DirecTV ad with the image of the late Chris Farley? When Farley died, Spade was supposedly so distraught he skipped Farley's wake and funeral. No problems there but don't appear on a TV commercial with him.

7.) That the NY Post had everything, and I mean everything, from the Steve Phillips affair, was certainly chilling and should be required reading for cheaters everywhere.

6.) MTV News puported to have landed a sit-down with Chris Brown, the singer/thug/Ike Turner wannabe who beat up his girlfriend, the pop star Rihanna. Only Brown wouldn't discuss details of the night in question. Disgusting. MTV gave Brown a forum for image rehabilitation. Where's Kurt Loder when you need him? Does Tabitha Soren still work for MTV?

5.) The more you hear regarding the Letterman case, sounds like ol' Dave isn't as innocent as once believed.

4.) That Leno is struggling at 10:00 really saddens me. HAHAHAHA!

3.) I've said it before, for as much as Fox's Joe Buck is on the air, he's as solid
as they come.

2.) Glad to see Bob Costas make Bud Selig squirm a bit on MLB's Baseball Network--too bad only six people saw it. Costas is great especially if you're able to overlook his self-appointed Lord of Baseball attitude.

1.) Suzyn Waldman's performance during the Yankee parade made for great morning radio fodder. Was she drinking? And what's with that voice? Not since Maddog Russo has someone gotten so far with less-than-stellar pipes.
