Our dear Randi is at it again...
Upset that John Dean and Jonathan Turley have been asked to be on Countdown; John on the 20th, after Scotty's day in Congress, and Turley tonight, about DK's impeachment articles.

"Isn't it funny he keeps booking the same guests as I do? And he won't have me on the show because he'd have to come to terms with the fact that his producers listen to my show and steal my material!"

Not a direct quote, but you get the idea.

1. You know I love Randi, but did it ever occur to her that
they have the same people on because they are the people who can speak best to the subject at hand? It's not a matter of being a copycat.

:hi:

2. And how did Keith steal a guest
if she didn't invite him on yet? John Dean said Keith wants him on on the 20th, and she goes off on him stealing her guests -- and then she asks him to be on on the 20th. :eyes:

3. Same thought here.
I love Randi too, but sometimes she gets a bit too full of herself.

4. Oh, I heard it. I could not believe it.
Wexler's supposed to be on tonight too, which also provoked her. Sheesh!

Even worse, she actually called one out by name: "Hello, Jonathan Larsen!"

If I were him, or Keith, I'd be SOOOOO pissed off right now.

I also wonder who exactly it is that has clued her in that Keith is "not a nice person." She didn't get on that tack today, but it is a professional slam, in my opinion, to say a person's name and then accuse him of stealing all your show's guests and all your show's ideas for the show he helps produce. If I were Jonathan Larsen, I'd be like Bugs Bunny right now: "You realize, this means war."

5. I didn't hear her say the name
That must have been while I screamed "Fuck you!" at her. I don't think she heard me from the desk, but my co-workers sure did. :)

Also, mighty bad form to tell them all to say "hi" to Keith for her.
