Re: RANT JerryTheSnakeman & Geralo at Large

this happens every day, news happens, every day, you just have to get over it, and accept the fact that on some days, other stories, are more important than your own, theres no point in taking it personally, its the nature of news...

You really don't get it. I'm not taking it personally. This story was not about me, it was about 2 little boys who died in Canada. As far as what is normal and excepted in the TV industry, does not make it right. Also, this was a talk type show, not the nightly news. They could have covered what ever they thought was a higher rated story the next night.

it doesnt work like that tho, as frustrating as it may be, chat shows are subject to last minute changes just as much as the news....and who knows what the story is, maybe the President found a rattlesnake in the air force one bathroom?

I do get how frustrating it is, but its just the nature of the media!

emailing you instead of calling you was pretty crap of them tho

Re: RANT JerryTheSnakeman & Geralo at Large

Some people care more about self respect than the respect of media agencies. This is not our careers so being insulted and mistreated will end the relationship. No need to hold back if you don't wish to do business with them ....ever. This rant is totally justified. You don't agree because you seem to think Jerry wants to be interviewed. I also would rather have my dignity than an interview. No need to call him out like that when it is you who does not have the correct perspective.

Re: RANT JerryTheSnakeman & Geralo at Large

I'm with Jerry. A few hours notice through an email is absolutely ridiculous. Doesn't matter what the other news story was, its not acceptable. Sending an email is a cowardly way to say 'I don't have the balls to hear your reaction to the cancellation, or respect you enough to care and probably won't look at the email if you respond anyways'

Re: RANT JerryTheSnakeman & Geralo at Large

I don't care for Wheres-Rolldo anyway. He always wants to try to be so SENSATIONAL that he makes me want to puke.I wouldn't give him a quarter much less an interview.
If I fault Jerry for anything, it would be for ever considering doing an interview with that big headed blowhard. Not to mention that he is a racist.
Better off this way.

Woah there big fella-
This is where I have to get off.I like Fox.The fact that they let idiots like Geraldo chime in with their differing views only shows that they are truly unbiased. Don't blame the cart for a few bad apples. I REALLY LIKE most people on there.
They may be politically biased but they do a pretty good job exposing the problems the common man faces from the government in this country.

Fox is a complete joke of a news station, filled with idiots. You like Bill O'Reilly? LOL

That news station lowers the IQ of the U.S by 40 points on its own. None of the news stations are accurate and I try not to watch them much, but Fox takes the cake honestly.

Re: RANT JerryTheSnakeman & Geralo at Large

Yes I like Bill and several other people on there. Funny how he gets such different views on the same subject. Kinda like the viewers have blinders on. But poor ol Bill only has the highest ratings of any news program and several best selling books to boot.
You are welcome to your opinion and I will not make any snide remarks concerning your intelligence, but there are millions of people who don't agree with you.

I think what we are all forgetting is that Jerry combed his hair and brushed his teeth and they just blew him off. That's unacceptable.
