1/2 Hour News Hour NOT FUNNY but creator is begging you to watch anyway


Who's so not funny now, its's not funny?

That would be desparate and dopey Joel Surnow who is committing a cardinal sin in show business. It's called FLOP SWEAT. It refers to the sweat that comes from totally BOMBING and trying to dance, sing, perform harder and harder to get the audience to like you.

The kiss of death to any performance and/or performer. Here's a quote from his article in conservative mag NRO: I ’ve been asked to write a few words about what it’s like to produce a conservative show in Hollywood. A show that critics are already calling “the funniest show in the history of the FOX News Channel, not counting Geraldo.” I really think that says it all. Now here’s more information on The Half Hour News Hour in a simple, easy-to-use, question-and-answer format.

Harry Reid is Sorry John Kerry isn't running

Or something like that. Wonkette here:
Did Harry Reid actually say this on the Senate floor today?
“So I say to John Kerry, I love you John Kerry. And I’m so sorry that things didn’t work out for our country, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that I will always care about you greatly and remember the times we’ve spent together.”If so, who got him high?

Michael Savage is a Liberal who supports Jerry Brown

Is this a bad thing? Well, no, we believe Jerry Brown is the right candidate for Attorney General - he is the right choice. But look who else thinks it's a good idea to support Jerry Brown: Radio talk show host Michael Alan Weiner, er, Savage. Interesting article in NRO that puts forth the idea that Mr. Weiner is REALLY a liberal posing as a conservative. Hmmmmm. Is this the same Michael Weiner who hung out with (extremely liberal and to some, waaaaay out there) beat poets Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Allen Ginsberg? That would be - you guessed it - Michael (Alan Weiner) Savage.

Remember, folks, ALL talkers are performers. Limbaugh, Savage, O'Reilly, Ingram, Miller, Franken, all performers. AND they are getting paid to get their audiences (that would be YOU) all worked up. That's why we thought is was pretty funny to see GWB ask the conservative talkers to the White House...get real! These guys and gals will say whateve pays their bills!

A radio-talk-show host pulls a fast one on fans?

By David Klinghoffer

Consider the case of Michael Savage, right-wing radio guy, and the not trivial effect he could have on the upcoming election. What’s curious about him is the tantalizing possibility — now with a smoking gun — that his three-hour daily show is an act, a put-on....Interesting that he should mention money — which brings us to the smoking gun. Supporting a candidate out of your own wallet may be the most accurate gauge of what a donor believes in his heart. So it should come as a shock to fans to learn where their hero distributes his own political gifts. Which are not ungenerous. Just ask Jerry Brown, the decidedly liberal candidate (pro-abortion, pro-gun control, etc.) for California attorney general.
