Diane Sawyer: Disney too cheap to bring in relief pitchers



Everybody stop picking on Diane Sawyer.
Okay, she's got a lovely face and honey locks, but she's not perfect.
It appears she was seeing hefalumps and woozels on the air during ABC's election special. But the poor girl had probably been up for 72 hours.
And she is a pensioner, not some spring chicken like, like, Soledad O'Brien.
I don't think Diane Sawyer was drunk.
I think Diane Sawyer was punch drunk.
Lack of sleep can make a person delirious.
If you want to blame anybody, blame Disney which owns ABC.
Disney is reportedly amongst the worst -- and cheapest -- employers on the planet.
So what Disney does is use its resources to the max to save money.
They did this all summer. After the cancellation of The Revolution, ABC/Disney forced Lara Spencer and Josh Elliott to do double duty by working the break of dawn shift then coming back in the afternoon to do another truly awful show. Both of them always appeared drunk.
The day of the election, Diane Sawyer was on every ABC daytime show flogging their election special -- after having covered Hurricane Sandy for days.
So please forgive her for being a little loopy.
She's a New Yorker.
She probably doesn't have power. Heck she probably hasn't taken a shower in weeks and they use that dreadful dry shampoo to make her look presentable.
If Diane had her druthers, she'd probably be taking a nice hot bath.
But Disney put her out there.
Come on, Diane, Disney said. Take on for the team.
Anderson would.
Why can't you be more like Anderson?
Look, Anderson Cooper does this cause he wants to. He has 55 shows and still wants more facetime.
He's addicted to Honey Boo Boo.
Clearly Anderson Cooper has no life.
And he's half Diane's age.
But Disney doesn't care.
Disney even had Barbara Walters up until 2 a.m. then put her back on the air the next morning.
Barbara Walters is 83.
And she has a friggin' heart condition.
Barbara Walters was dog tired as a result and it showed. She tried to interview Ricky Gervais on The View and she couldn't talk. Ricky Gervais told her to shut up. Then Barbara did a hoola dance.
Dear president of ABC/Disney.
Let these poor girls get some shut eye before you put them on air.
Let them go home at 3 p.m. for a nap at least.
They may be powerhouses but they are only human.
And you, sir, are too cheap to bring in relief pitchers.

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

What Bell isn't telling you about Fibe TV

Update: This week, we switched back to Rogers after spending far too long using Bell's crappy television service. For those with Bell, read and weep. For those considering Bell, think twice even if you hate Rogers. RS I've always been an early technology adapter. I had a Betamax. That tells you everything (if you're over 50 at least). My first computer was a "Portable". It weighed 40 pounds and I had to lug it around town on a gurney. I've been through probably 15 computers in my lifetime. Apple is the best. It's also too expensive so I have a piece of shit HP, the one I'm writing this blog on. I've had cable, internet and now Netflix. American Netflix . That's how far ahead of the curve I am. I get all the newspapers for free. How? I disabled my cookies so they can't track me when I'm on the newspaper sites. Even the New York Times hasn't cottoned on to that trick. Hahaha. That will be a fifty buck consulting fee. Bein
