  1. Rick “Slick” Sanchez is really doing one heck of a job this week…he’s actually making Paula’s ratings look GOOD!

    Oh and I sure hope those Showbiz Tonight numbers are a typo…otherwise they’re in some trouble :

  2. There, is every1 happy now? John Roberts ratings are more in line with Cooper’s now.

    And before you say “no they’re not” go and check thru June and July’s numbers, cause yes they are. Don’t pull out breaking news or debate nights either cause those aren’t regular numbers.

  3. I thought John Roberts ALWAYS got better ratings and demos then AC when he subbed. So much for that.

  8. JAB-when and where did you hear CNN talk about Imus’ return? Who said it, and what did they say? I look forward to the I-Man’s return! Thanks.

  9. Glenn Beck’s sub had a great segment on Imus’ comeback last night.

    Comment by Mel — August 9, 2007 @ 11:03 am

  10. Mel-what did Glenn Beck’s sub say on the segment about Imus? DId he say where/when he’s coming back? Or was it just a rehash of what is already out there….???

  11. Someone’s having a great conversation with him/herself.

    Comment by erljr — August 9, 2007 @ 11:37 am

  12. you’re really weird erljr - cas, have we ever met, spoken ever? Spud is welcome to email me for my phone numbers to confirm where I’m located and who I am, and yes I’m not afriad to use my real name which is Mel. What a paranoid weirdo you are, get a life, no name. You started this with one of my real friends who posts here last month - she’s on vacation but she’ll be back but this site hasn’t had much to comment on lately.

    Cas - it’s posted on imustruth.com for your viewing pleasure. Kinky Friedman was on Morning Joe today talking up Imus’ return too. The Abrams/Imus UTube is on there too.

    Comment by Mel — August 9, 2007 @ 11:51 am

  13. Mel, thanks. I appreciate your help.

  14. CNN should hire Rush for the 8PM spot. Remember 2 years ago he was listening to CNN about an offer?

    But I believe Murdochs secret weapon is Rush on the new FBN in Oct. maybe 2 nights a week to start in the 11 PM spot.
