Jon & Kate Plus Hate

So Jon and Kate are getting a divorce after 10 years of marriage and a hit TV show?

My response to this tragic news: Who cares!? Really, are we devoting our time to worrying about a couple that achieved fame solely from having a bunch of kids and showing their dysfunction to the American public? It's a soap opera starring real life people. Instead of wasting time on reality shows, maybe we should devote more time to enjoying REAL LIFE. (Just don't take away my American Chopper--who doesn't love watching those big lugs fight?)

And now it's headline time:

Shocking news, Jon and Kate are getting divorced. Also in "Who Cares News," Todd Bridges and his acting agent have decided to part ways.

Kate Gosselin says, "It feels like I failed." Uhh, yeah, that's because you did. When you say "until death do us part," and you don't do that, you have met the definition of failure.

The Gosselins are divorcing. They will continue to film and live together, however the show will now be know as "The Odd (and Very Uncomfortable) Couple."

If the Gosselin divorce spells doom for their TV show, another talentless couple ready to take their place: Spencer and Heidi Try to Graduate.

Kate Gosselin was quoted as saying, "We've become two different people." Who would have thought that fame, fortune, and the stress of eight children could possibly change someone?

And here's the news right from the horse's mouth:

Talking Heads vs. Political Comedians

Bill Maher. Dennis Miller. Jon Stewart. Al Franken.

Keith Olbermann. Rush Limbaugh. Bill O'Reilly. Glenn Beck.

These guys are all entertainers. They're not here primarily to inform, they're here to get us to watch. ALL of them. They all have their audiences they play to. Those viewers love saying, "Yes! I agree!" You want to be informed? Read a book... just not Ann Coulter's.

Agree or Disagree? Post a comment.

And now a few headlines:

Keith Olbermann's ratings have dipped to an all-time low. His show is so desperate to get viewers it has taken a controversial new political stance: George W. Bush--4 MORE YEARS!

The movement for Rush Limbaugh to be the voice of the Republican party is gaining momentum especially whenever Sarah Palin speaks. One man remarked, "At least with Rush we can go back to pretending Alaska doesn't exist."

Bill O'Reilly spoke out this week against grapefruit. He said they are quote, "Clearly the citrus is a leftest liberal-- looks appealing on the outside, but inside it's full of bitterness and hypocrisy. We tried to contact the grapefruit. Our calls were not returned."

Glenn Beck just finished his "Common Sense Comedy Tour". The only other comedy tours we'd like to see less: Sean Penn, Al Gore, and Andrew "Dice" Clay.


Tomorrow: Artie Lange ruin Joe Buck's HBO show? Leave your opinion in the comments and I will address it on Friday.
