Rosie Back?

J.J. Jackson* | November 8, 2007

Leave it to NBC to give this nitwit, who feels the need to show her ignorance while pontificating on everything from how steel structures work in Rosie-la-la Land to what she thinks of the Chinese language, another show.

Rosie O’Donnell, who abruptly left “The View” on ABC last spring after drawing attention and ratings for her opinions on everything from the Iraq war to her co-hosts, is in serious discussions to return to television atop a new soapbox: a prime-time show on the cable news channel MSNBC, according to executives on both sides of the negotiations who have been briefed directly.Under one scenario, Ms. O’Donnell would be given the 9 p.m. slot each weeknight on MSNBC, where she would go head-to-head with two heavyweights of cable talk: “Larry King Live” on CNN and “Hannity & Colmes” on Fox News. Her show would replace “Live with Dan Abrams,” a relatively low-rated program that only recently replaced “Scarborough Country,” which was also little-watched.

But NBC executives, speaking on condition of anonymity because the conversations are continuing, cautioned that there were many elements of a potential deal yet to be resolved. These include when such a show would appear, what Ms. O’Donnell would be paid, and whether she would also be seen on the NBC broadcast network.

How long will this gig last? A month? Two months? And how long before she starts delving into the realm of the 9/11 Truthers?

NBC likes pounding the nails in its own coffin apparently.
