I hate Gayle King and don't care who knows it

One of my resolutions for 2012 is to be less envious of other people.

It is the worst sin of the seven deadlies and I commit it all the time.

I find myself making fun of Ben Mulroney or Kim Kardashian for being no talent losers.

I wonder what dirt Joy Behar and Elizabeth Hasselbeck have on Barbara Walters.

I ridicule Lisa Laflamme's nipple jacket.

Sometimes, I'm ashamed of myself.

It is my worst fault and I was vowing to make a change this year. Be a nicer, sweeter, more gracious individual.

Congratulate people on their good fortune.

But I just can't get past Gayle King.

I despise Gayle King. She is smarmy and entitled. She is overly familiar with celebrities. She thinks her poop doesn't stink just because she's Oprah's BFF.

I have tried in recent times to isolate Gayle as an image in my mind, to ask myself am I just jealous because I want to be Oprah's friend? Is it possible for me to only judge her based on herself? If so, would I like her better?

The answer is no.

Absolutely not.

I was literally fuming when I heard Gayle was going to cohost CBS Morning.

What in the world qualifies her for this job?

It's like taking Mrs. Dr. Phil and putting her on The Doctors.

Oh wait. She was on that show.

Nevermind.

One of the things I hate is nepotism on high. Ben Mulroney, come on down. Sharon Osbourne, take a seat.

Gayle is the Queen of Nep.

I know this like I know my own name.

All the jobs she got, she got because of Oprah.

 

Oprah opens a radio station? Give Gayle her own show. Oprah starts a magazine? Make Gayle "editor of large". Oprah starts a network? Give Gayle another show.

Gayle, Gayle, Gayle.

As my mother used to say, "Gayle thinks she's Gayle".

Gayle, schmayle.

Oprah bought her a house. Oprah broke up her marriage because Gayle's husband was so sick of playing second fiddle to Oprah.

And now she's dumped Oprah.

She up and quit her show on OWN, thinking she's ready to fly on her OWN.

Gayle thinks CBS loves her. In reality, they're giving her a bad show, a rock bottom remainder on a network which was only first in the morning ratings when it ran Captain Kangaroo.

Look it up.

I predict (and hope) that Gayle will be a ratings bust unless somehow she can book Oprah every Friday for a girl chat.

Just watching Gayle do the pre-show publicity makes me cringe.

She's everywhere, The View. Anderson Cooper. Letterman.

And all Gayle does is talk about Oprah.

If I want Oprah, I'll turn on OWN.

I plan to boycott CBS completely.

I want nothing to do with anything that fat-assed cow has put her perfectly manicure hands on.

Oops.

So much for my 2012 resolution.

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.

Again.

  4. I agree, the only way she gets a job is because of her friend Oprah. Her cloths are terrible, why if you have a fat as* would you put a belt on above that area?? Does she own anything with long sleves? Come on, with all that money can't she pay someone gay to dress her?

Ashley Simpson: Conversation with Derek Favell Revealed

  On April 2, 2017, a family friend of Ashley Simpson opened her Facebook Messenger and got the surprise of her life.  Cathy MacLeod had been trying to correspond with Ashley's boyfriend, Derek Favell, who was the last person to see the St. Catharines native before she disappeared from her home in Salmon Arm, B.C. a year before. She wanted to know more about what happened to Ashley, and why Favell had refused to take a polygraph test when many others close to the missing woman agreed to do so. "I wanted to poke the bear," she said, and sent several messages to Favell pleading with him to talk to her.  " Please help us," she wrote. "It's been 10 months of pure hell. A lie detector would help if you have nothing to hide. I beg of you, help us, take the test to clear your name if there’s nothing to hide." Many, including members of the Simpson family, found Derek's behaviour, at least, curious. Ashley had disappeared on April 27, 2016. Yet it took

Ashley Simpson: A Father Remembers

I have asked Ashley Simpson's family and friends to give us a glimpse into the life she lived before going missing nearly a month ago. Here is how her father John remembers his sweet girl. Ashley was a treat when she came into this world, a smashing 9lbs 8 ounces with a  head full of hair and nails that needed to be clipped. She has made many friends in her journey of life and continues to make them as we speak. She has made this world a better place by her love of mankind and this place we call Earth; unfortunately this life she has lived hasn't been the best for her. She has suffered through unbearable pain and suffering through her menstrual cycles. She has cysts on her ovaries that make those 10 days a living hell. She had one of her ovaries removed when she was just 14; the other they won't take out till she is 40 or older. Years of hell for my Ashley. I so feel her pain every month but she doesn't quit, doesn't give in.   That's my

Jack Van Dusen: 90 Years Old and Not a Drop Wasted

A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others."  -- L. Frank Baum It's not easy standing out in a family like the Van Dusens. They are like tribbles; they are everywhere. In politics. In the media. In the fine arts. Even on stage at local fairs raising money for good causes. But Jack Van Dusen is no ordinary Van Dusen. He's a trailblazer. He was the voice of Ottawa anchoring the local news in the early days, with the sidekicks you see in the photo above. He was on Parliament Hill rubbing shoulders with the likes of John George Diefenbaker and making mischief with the relatively small cabal of ink stain wretches who were the first generation to talk to Canadians over the air waves. After a successful time in the media, Jack had a second career as a public relations guy. That's when I met him sitting at the lunch table at the National Press Club with his brother Tom, the columnist Charles Lynch, Sergeant-at-Arms Gus Clou
