WE TOLD YA SO!

No sooner did we have the world scoop that President Biden was either going to try to get another debate with Donald Trump scheduled immediately, or if that didn’t work, start granting interviews to major news network – that scoop came true! Less than 24 hours later, CNN revealed that the president has his first interview scheduled with ABC on this Friday. According to my well connected source, Trump passed on the idea of another debate (as we expected) so now in a last ditch effort to save his candidacy, President Biden will go on an interview blitz. Once again, we told you so!

AMY ROBACH AND TJ HOLMES: CRIME OF THE CENTURY?

Why on earth are those people at ABC and Good Morning America making SUCH a fuss over the Amy Robach TJ Holmes romance? At one time this situation would have been enjoyed as a ratings bonanza, with all the publicity the couple has gotten! (We had barely heard of them before this) Shame on their co-workers who have a “holier than thou” attitude, and are NOT defending them at all! Consenting adults Amy and TJ have been taken off the air for 2 weeks so far. The only one with common sense at ABC seems to be ABC News President Kim Godwin who said they “didn’t violate company policies” and was criticized because the relationship had not yet been “thoroughly investigated.” It’s MADNESS! Amy and TJ should get RAISES because ratings have never been better!

MEMORIES OF ANNA NICOLE SMITH ON THE MENU FOR FRIDAY

Here’s a strange premise for a 2 hour TV special: (but it DID arouse our curiosity) On Friday ABC’s 20-20 is presenting “Tragic Beauty” in recognition of the death of Anna Nicole Smith on February 8, 2007, at the age of 39. She died 14 years ago and now the child she had who never knew her, fourteen year old Dannielynn Birkhead, is learning about her mother’s life. Dannielynn’s father Larry Birkhead takes her to Anna’s childhood home in Texas and places her mother frequented. They talk to Anna’s friends and dig through stored memorabilia of Anna’s. The most interesting part seems to be that Dannielynn is growing up and starting to resemble her mother.

HAS ROSEANNE LEARNED A LESSON?

When it comes to putting her foot in her mouth – probably not. But she’s learned the hard way how much her selfindulgent tweets can hurt just about everyone she knows. All those people out of work overnight because of HER! We would have been happier if ABC had paused to think about it, and simply fired Roseanne and put the show on hold while they brainstorm a way to keep it going. This INSTANT COMDEMNATION is getting out of hand. Meanwhile, Roseanne is hiding out at her parents house in Salt Lake City and a paparazzi caught her on the phone crying.

CHRIS BROWN STILL HAS THAT CHIP ON HIS SHOULDER

Chris Brown’s meltdown – yelling, window smashing, and shirtless exit – at ABC after his interview with Robin Roberts, has caused observers to wonder whether there is a pharmaceutical explanation. He seemed hostile and less than charming when the interview started – was he on drugs? Either way, it’s evident he still has anger issues and continues to blame everyone but himself for the Rihanna incident. It’s been two years and he still won’t address the beating or speak apologetically about it. Robin Roberts was lucky he didn’t take out his fury on her.
