Dennis Miller claims Fox News owes him back pay; may sue
"I believe you want someone to get incensed for you," he told his audience, explaining that the world had devolved into "right vs. wrong" and that he, Dennis Miller, intended to offer a special brand of "fair and unbalanced" TV. Note to Fox: He wants you to sue him, is in fact desperate for the publicity boost. He went so far as to accuse Fox of still owing him $12,000 in back pay (Miller had a part-time gig at Fox before CNBC), and offering to settle the dispute by donating $6,000 to a charity if Fox chief Roger Ailes did the same. If Ailes won't, Miller suggested he'd sue.

Man!!!

Some people will do anything to get noticed!!!!

4. Yawn
just shut the hell up Miller! Who really gives a damn what you have to say? It's sad when a washed up guy tries a desperate publicity grab like this one. Apparently, this guy can't hold a job for long periods of time. How long will he last on this one?

7. Catfight!
As long as Ailes and Miller are going at each other, they have all the less energy to bash Dem candidates.

Ok, Dennis you're over in the west corner. Roger, you go to the east corner. Buzzzzz. Go!

11. Going to initiate a "frivolous lawsuit", Dennis?
I thought card-carrying conservatives like yourself didn't indulge in such anti-American conduct!

12. the sad part is
