The View? What's Wrong With People?
I used to watch The View once in awhile...well, until Rosie came on board and spouted her many over-the-top, completely implausible theories and became more and more obnoxious by the minute.
Read about possible Rosie replacements for the much-coveted empty spot on The View here.
Are people that starved for entertainment that they actually enjoy watching shock TV? Apparently so, since ratings on The View sky rocketed after Rosie joined it.
What is it that attracts people to this kind of TV? Is it that it takes their minds off of their otherwise mundane daily lives or what? Or, is it that many Americans just don't have any taste anymore?
Whether gay or straight, this woman was about the most repulsive person ever to be put on TV. Personally, I believe she suffers from some serious mental disorder way beyond her admitted bouts of depression. She is a very needy person who craves attention and her stunts just seem to get more insane as the days go by....her latest involving letting her 4-year old dress up with an ammo belt, military attire and playing war then parading her picture on the internet for the world to see....even though it's well known supposedly that Rosie herself hates guns.
In typical fashion, Rosie blames Bush, the war in Iraq and images of soldiers streaming constantly from tv for the evolution of her daughter from princess to soldier. What's it all mean? I personally think that Rosie has a serious victim's mentality. It's never her fault for much of anything. It's all those other people out to get her because she's a lesbian, fat, a loud mouth, etc.
Sorry Rosie, you're not the victim here, but you did victimize your innocent child and use her to meet your sick needs. As a parent sometimes you have to make sure your vulnerable children watch age appropriate TV. Sometimes you even have to tell your children "no" and mean it and follow through and be consistent about things. It's a tough job and putting your children's needs first means not parading them on the internet dressed as a warrior because you yourselve are so starved for some media attention.
But who's sicker ya think? Rosie or the people who actually enjoy watching her? There's just no accounting for some people's poor taste I guess. I hope they replace her with a sane person myself, but I'm guessing they'll go for another loud-mouth obnoxious pick. After all, it's about ratings not responsible TV or any semblance of actual healthy entertainment.
Oh, how I long for the days of innocent TV....The Donna Reed Show, Father Knows Best and Mr. Ed! Unfortunately instead many people put garbage in so is it any wonder that garbage comes out?
It says alot about Barbara Walters as well that she would pick Rosie in the first place. I've completely lost respect for Walters and while she had a somewhat stellar career as a real journalist, I can barely control my gag reflex when I see her anymore and I think she has forever sullied her reputation. Just like I do with The View, I change the channel when Walters comes on anything anymore. She has absolutely no credibility left for me....and yep, there's alot wrong with people today who substitute healthy TV to get their daily fix of shocking, obnoxious TV.
