Rita on Rita, or "measure your waves"

[Muffstser]

Rather than post the multiple blurbs on Rita's coverage of Rita, here's the main TV newser link. Needless to say, the moral is: make sure you know that your waves are 30 feet high, before you say so on National TV.

1. Please be nice to Ms. Gargle w/ Razor Blades

She said she had covered 30 hurricanes and the wave was 50'
high.

3. Looks as if the hurricane wasn't the only Rita blowing a lot of smoke

Rita Skeeter, don't you know what happens to little girls who tell tall tales??

I noticed also that in other news, Bob Costas is expected to retreat to his HBO shows and NFL football rather than continue to sub for Larry King. Why? Because he now realizes how much the tone of cable news has changed, and that not all of the most popular subjects are his "cup of tea."

Jeez, Bob, it took you this long to figure that out? You could've saved yourself a lot of time on this whole thing by just picking up the phone and calling Keith. Back in 1998.

4. Just think FLUFFER .......

..... when you see her. She is just news O tainment.
Remember she has 3rd degree peroxide burns to her brain.

My guess is Alison will get her time slot and Perky will
become sub # 1.

5. Well, if that's so...

...then WHY IS MSNBC still PLUGGING HER SHOW TO DEATH WHILE ADVERTISING KEITH NOT AT ALL????

Tonight they even had that hideous "Nowhere to Run" promo. Then again, that song seems all too appropriate for Rita. Nowhere to run...RITA'S HERE! LOOK OUT, VIEWERS!!!AGGGGHHHH!!!

6. Ummm,

I know I don't post here much, but who is "Perky," please?
Alison I know (she's cute and snarky and really the only decent sub when KO's gone).
Rita just drives me nuts. She seems so....talentless. (Not to mention annoying). I find myself switching the channel when she's on.
Yuck.

7. Perky Girl = Monica Novotny

eom

10. Monica is also known as

"Gidget."

Which, in some circles, makes Keith Moondoggie.

9. Rita Skeeter...

Yep, she's annoying. Agree, indeed!

8. Alison has a spot during the day.

but I'd like to see more of her. She could carry her own show, prime-time! :7
