Faux news and Rita Cosby
LMAO!

Had the RCL dude on, and he tried to be semi-neutral. Cosby has to be the stupidest reporter on cable news. Doesn't she do her research?

Essentially, she tried to force the RCL dude to sat Fla, Ohio, Wisc, Iowa, are defeintely going for Bush. Honey, I don't think so. Kerry wins at least2 of those states and probably 3.

When is a 1-pont lead evidence a guy is going to win big?

5. interesting you mention her voice...
She gained fame covering the OJ trial as a foil for the prosecution, after all, they were locking up a large black man, and you know how they threaten the very fabric of America. She was quite shaken when the verdict came down - I think she was with MSNBC and Geraldo at the time.

Her voice has changed in recent months - almost like she's had too much fellating of RWers at the FOX network. Any theories - we know it's not Cavuto, because word has it that there isn't too much camera equipment there - that is, his lens isn't so big. Maybe it's one of the two guys on Sunday AM...who knows?

6. I watched Geraldo a lot during OJ and remember Jane Wells
Edited on Sat Oct-30-04 09:06 PM by Kerryfan
reporting from the trial for Geraldo but I don't remember Cosby.

Doesn't Cavuto have MS ?

And what is RCL ?

8. I Loved Geraldo Till He Went To Fox...
He was Clinton's greatest defender during the impeachment brouhaha so much so that Clinton invited him to the White House...

He also was spot on on O J...

11. I remember her from when she was still in local TV in Charlotte
10 years ago. I thought she was terrible then and I see she hasn't improved one iota since then either.

12. Rita Loves Bad Boys, and She Has Left Geraldo in the Dust
Edited on Sat Oct-30-04 09:27 PM by UTUSN
She manages to worm her way into all the families of victims in BIG cases, was pen pals with McVEIGH AND BERKOWITZ, interviewed MILOSEVIC by phone, and countless others. She is VERY EMPATHETIC to the people she's trying to hook. And she is tireless, walking in the trash dump when they were looking for that girl's body there.

I don't think she was with MSRNC or with Geraldo back then. When Geraldo jumped to Faux and was kissing up to all the established Faux talking heads who didn't want him there, Fallafel-O'LIELLY gave him a dirty look and asked him, "What do YOU bring to Faux that we don't already have?" It was withering and humiliating to Geraldo. But the truth was that Rita had the Geraldo niche covered.

Her show, an hour before Geraldo's, covers the same big-trial territory, but she scoops him week after week. Several months ago, the two of them were promo-ing their coverage of one of the trials, and Rita was just bubbling over with her material, while Geraldo was FUMING and sat TURNED AWAY from her. It was so obvious that motherly Rita reached over and put a hand on his knee in an act of pity and consolation.
