How did they actually find someone WORSE than Rita Cosby?
seriously. I can't stand Rita but I'm used to hearing her idiocy for a few minutes in the evening when I'm popping around cable channels. Then suddenly last night it appeared like an E! flunk-out was filling in for her. The levels at which she sucked boggles the mind. Rita's "I'm Really Perky" attempts with her nails on chalkboard voice were horrific but somehow this vacuous twit they had filling in for her beat Rita hands down. Every line that poppout out of her mouth sounded like a forced attempt at High school cheerleading. My wife walked into the room and without missing a beat said "who the hell let her on TV?"

I didn't think it was possible to go lower than Rita but they have...how much longer can KO endure life on a MSNBC sandwiched between shows like Abrams idiocy and *shudder* whatever they are doing with Cosby's show?

2. Thanks to Rita Cosby
Edited on Thu May-25-06 08:24 AM by RedStateShame
I was able to quit smoking. Oh, sure, you think you'll sound cool and grizzled like Tom Waits, but how many people wind up sounding like they're talking through a busted set of bagpipes like Rita? And how did she get out of the Faux News Aryan Bimbo Brigade? She get replaced by somebody blonder?

5. FOX News has blondes all over the place...
but for about 4 years now they have had nothing but black women as their primetime anchors with the beautiful "Bush is my God" shill Harris Faulkner on currently. They used to have the drop dead gorgeous Dari Alexander on before that. Beyonce Knowles and Halle Berry had nothing on Dari.

6. Just shows how skin thin beauty is
because anyone willing to shill like that on Faux is bone deep ugly.

12. You cannot be more Right Wing than Harris Falkner.
Not only does she vere from the teleprompter to spin stories into a favorable light for Bush, she is also a Fundamentalist Christian Speaker who proudly proclaims to carry a gun with her at all times.

Should anything happen to Condi and Bush insists on having another Black woman take her place, this is the one.

3. I caught that--she acts like a cokehead. Plus the white lipstick
on her upper lip makes her look ghastly.

7. Maybe it wasn't lipstick - if she does act as you say.
She probably grabbed a quick toot for her nerves and forget to check her face.

9. Thank for making me realize my assessment of Rita was not too harsh,
if fact, not harsh enough.

11. Thank God For AutoTune
Olberman comes on at 8:00, and that's about when we are eating dinner most nights. When he goes off I used go get hit by Rita's voice. It would ruin a nice mean.

So I started setting the AutoTune to something, anything, at 9:00. Reruns of Chappel are a favorite.

I noticed that Rita was gone about a week ago. I listed to that Asshole they got to replace her for about 20 seconds one night. Back to the AutoTune at nine routine for us.

16. Name appears to be Lauren Lake?
my wife swears she was also on the day before so *shudder* she wasn't just some one shot fill in.

Quick internet search later, the name of this ghastly train wreck of a host is Lauren Lake. A couple Lauren Lakes come up on Google but this appears to be the one who was billed as a "Legal Analyst" on O'Rielly back on April 4th.

and here http://www.gogomag.com/ll3/ it lists her as "Lauren Lake is a Criminal Defense Attorney who appears regularly on Fox News Channel and CourtTV as a legal analyst"

She didn't come across as either old enough or intelligent enough to have an opinion let alone be given ANY air-time anywhere.


I bet Ted Turner could buy MSNBC...make KO the President and maybe they could actually build a real news channel again.

I can dream

14. Wow - really? Worse than Rita?
I'll need to see this myself - what's it's name?

I say it, because only an it cam trump Rita.

Jesus - I NEVER, and will NEVER understand her ass as an anchor

EVER

She must have done some dirty shit to get on the TV - with that voice - I mean Jesus!

Not attractive, has a voice that could wake the dead and the intellect of a 4 year old - Yep, sign her up!

actually that sounds like what the powers that be have in mind.
