Celebrity Feuds
Rosie Slams Elisabeth and Her "Crappy Cable Shows"

Click to return to TMZ.comSo much for laying off Elisabeth.

Rosie O'Donnell went ballistic on her preggers "View" co-host Hasselbeck, pounding her for watching "crappy cable shows" -- namely the ones on FOX News -- and assailing her failure to weigh two viewpoints at the same time. Which Rosie does, of course, on a regular basis! Rosie had pledged to take it easy on E, given her gravid condition, but that didn't stop her this morning.

As ever, Babwa Walters tried to be Switzerland in the fray, but it didn't end up doing much.

91. The surest way to look like you are losing an argument is to start makng personal attacks on your opponemt. Thus Rosie questioning Elizabeth's mental capacities, readers calling Rosie names and using general foul language do nothing to serve this or any other debate. The View is not perfect, but it is at times, interesting. If you would like to hear some real repartee - watch Meet the Press. You will get to hear opposing sides who actually know what they are talking about - well a least they think they do :)

92. I'll miss Roise because she make you think.I may not agree with all her opinion but there hers. Elizabeth is one sided and goes sown some obvious dumb paths when she make statements that all ways seems me just recently rehershed.
Elizabeth seldoms wants to agree to something as simple has this administration has no foreign polcyand we need to get won started or this will happen again.

Now, I saw the show where this topic came up in it's entirety

What Rosie said was dont the Iraq people think we are terrorist becasuse we have killed over 600,000 of there people in an unjust war.

93. If Rosie O'Donnell is the left's poster girl and speaks out for you (Dem's) then you are out of touch with reality more than I thought. Honestly, I can't see any Democrat running for President that would want Rosie speaking for them...please. Rosie represents the Non Informed Insanity Party...Even my most liberal friends say she's crazy. Has anyone ever seen Rosie have an educated debate with anyone much less anyone who doesn't agree with her? She can't. She only knows how to shoot from her ass......not too unlike many politicians of today.

My personal belief is Fox News gives both sides. But if some of you must....Fox News is a good balance to CNN...by the way they top the ratings too. I have found most conservatives talk at the polls, not out their Rosie's......

94. All you Crtics of Rosie are sooooo missing the point! Fox news has continuely distorted, spined and taken comments Rosie has said completely out of context! SHE NEVER SAID THAT U.S. TROOPS ARE TERROISTS! If a news organization continuely misrepresented what I said, I'd be p***ed off too!

95. How can anyone stand Elisabeth's voice? I wish she was leaving instead of Rosie.

96. 82. Elisabeth is the only person on that show to have a different "view". Getting rid of her is what would tank that show. Who wants to hear Joy, Rosie, and their invited guest who always believes as they do congratulate themselves daily about how they hate this country's policy and president. What exciting T V that would be.




The View is terminally ill and not because of Rosie or any other co-host or guest. Only 28% of this nation believes Bush is doing even a passable job and 80% of us want to deploy our troops home from Iraq. Which makes Rosie's comments overwhelmingly mainstream.
"Exciting" TV for those who think otherwise have FOX 'news' and can listen 24/7 to what authentic propaganda is.
I prefer truth. And Rosie delivers it with such honesty that the major news networks like CBS should be considering having her replace or compete with...

Katie Couric. (don't even get me started)

ok, j/k.
well
half kidding.

I have no problem with Elisabeth and like I've already said, she and Rosie are genuine friends. I want balance and although E is kinda a shallow dimwit she IS starting to look at politics with a more objective view (thanks to Rosie, of course). I hear she's even considering voting for Obama. wow. lol

97. #91....I totally agree with you. Elisabeth is in WAY over her head on the View. Whenever she tries to make a profound statment (watch how she brings her hand to her chin), it almost never makes sense! She could be talking about foreign policy, or raising kids...it all ends up sounding like nonsense. Cute? Yes. Pregnant? Congrats. Intelligent? Not so much.

98.
Way to go Rosie!!!!!
Fox news is the crappiest cable news network.....Bill O'Rielly, Greta and Kimberly........onesided!!!!!
I like Elisebeth but she is not the smartest cookie in the jar when it comes to politics. She should listen to Rosie more....she may learn something!
Rosie...you are great and you will be missed!
The View will be so boring and not worthly to watch when Rosie leaves!

99. Rosie bashers are the ones who need to calm down. Can't you express an opinion without profanity or derogatory remarks? Your anger is really scary.
Having said that, I don't agree with everything Rosie says BUT she has made The View a lot more interesting. In addition, she has mentioned topics/books/DVDs, etc. that have raised questions and prompted me to do some research on my own. I've even watched Fox News on a number of occasions to see if what I hear is true - and have seen for myself that they regularly misrepresent/twist things that were said by Rosie. TMZ is also guilty of playing the "Rosie card" to their own advantage. Elisabeth and Joy had a real donnybrook last week that was equally, if not more, confrontational than this mornings'. I didn't see coverage on that one anywhere. Why is that?
As for Elisabeth, I have never liked her because she comes across as whiny and spoiled. Now that it has been revealed that the EP on The View briefs Elisabeth before the show, you have to wonder how much of what she says is truly her view and how much is a set up.

100. Liberals Suck! Republicans are Stupid! Stupid sheep, all poltics at this point in time are crooked. Shut up and listen to reason. Neither side is right. As for the Fox, CBS....they're all pushing their own agenda - ratings!

101. anyone who watches Bill O'reilly or Fox news is a retard. think for yourself fools.

102. Elizabeth proves that blonds are really dumb.

103. WHEN is the FAT BITCH ROSIE leaving the VIEW???????????? I stopped watching it because of HER............

104. Thank you #92 -I agree with you that Rosie is the most illetarate, uneducated and angry person on the news now. I watch Fox news and although I think they sometimes have double standards and deviate from being completely honest. Good news reporters don't have to be angry or rude they have to depict the truth as it is and do not let their political agendas prevail. As a conservative I take the best from both parties and dream that someday we will have a president that would bring the best in both parties and people like Pelosi would disappear with their crazy immigration ideas they like to feed us all. And Rosie...hei, who is going to remember her when she is gone...

105. Rosie is nothing more than a pile of crap trailer trash. Someone needs to hog-tie her and put a rotten apple in her mouth to shut her up. Why does TMZ even make space for that miserable piece of crap?
