Isn't that the nadir of TV failure?
I mean, ratings so bad that CNBC cancels you...even though you ARE a right-wing hack! Unheard of.

19. I guess the rightwing is finally saturating
itself. Hope that means we'll see less of some of the other lazy loudtalkers who have little education, little intellectual curiousity, and even less charm or wit.
Miller sold his soul to the devil.
Karma killed him.
He can continue to do commercials and make appearances at rightwing rallies.
Anyone see Drew Carey lately?

Donahue received better ratings than that and he was only allowed to stay on for mere seconds before being canceled.

27. Looks like Jon Stewart did it again!
I am not sure if this is directly related to him or not, but Dennis Miller did make a really disastorous Daily Show appearance.

First Tucker Carlson, now Dennis Miller, can he get Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity kicked off next?

45. Actually, didnt O'Reilly refer to Stewart's audience as
Stoned slackers? And then research showed that Daily Show audiences were smarter than O'Reilly's? That's funnier than the possibility of his show getting kicked off the air.

Funny thing is, I never really like him when he was on our side either. I always had that feeling that he went along with stuff, just to suit his own career. NOw he has no career, 'cept maybe some gigs in hotel lounges.

BWAHAHAHA!
