In A Shocking Development, Rosie O’Donnell’s Mouth Costs Her A Job

I know, I know.Â I’m just as stunned as you are.

The opinionated former co-host of The View admitted in her haikuesque blog that rumors of her hosting her own 9 PM talk show on MSNBC are now at an end, due to her big mouth:

In her blog’s trademark verse, she writes:

we were close to a deal
almost done
i let it slip in miami
causing panic on the studio end

well
what can u do

2day there is no deal
poof
my career as a pundit is over
b4 it began

It’s not as if she wasn’t warned.

In fact, O’Donnell made it quite clear during her Nov. 6 stand-up show that the network was getting nervous about their uncensored star. “We’re filming for an unidentified TV station, which I was told that I was not allowed to mention,” she said at the event in New York’s Lincoln Center. “They told me not to mention this possible show, and they are men in business suits. Nothing is scarier than men in business suits screaming at you over the phone.”

Still, O’Donnell insists she isn’t bitter, noting “everything happens for a reason.”
