Montel Williams kicks ass on FAUX
And, gets kicked in the ass three days later.
The Montel Williams Show has been cancelled just 3 days after this clip went out because key Fox-owned stations opted not to renew it for the 2008-09 season.
"Of course it's ratings. But, it's the appetite. We're feeding the beast."
I'd like to feed this bitch to the sharks.
Let there be no doubt. FAUX thinks that WE are the beast. It's well past time to be the beast that roared.

Montel Williams calls it quits
Talkshow ends production after 17 years
By CYNTHIA LITTLETON
Montel Williams is calling it a wrap after 17 years in daytime.
CBS TV Distribution confirmed Wednesday it will end production on the syndicated yakker at the end of this season. CBS plans to offer stations a "Best of Montel" package for the fall that will feature segs from throughout the show's run.
Fate of "The Montel Williams Show" was sealed when key Fox-owned stations opted not to renew it for the 2008-09 season. But a number of other stations had cleared the show for next season, prompting CBS to offer the "Best of" package. The rerun package is sold on an all-cash basis, which is a boon to stations that had been handing over 3½ minutes of barter ad time per seg to CBS for the firstrun episodes.
"Stations continue to embrace Montel and the message of social responsibility that has been the cornerstone of his show," said CBS TV Distribution prexy and chief operating officer John Nogawski.
Williams, a former military officer, launched his yakker in New York and a handful of other markets in 1991. Show was picked up for national distribution by Viacom the following year.

I wonder if he regrets not really telling the truth?
That an informed populace means these propagandists would have to actually do their jobs so it's to their benefit, as well as in their talking points memos, to shove bullshit down the peoples throat & call it 'news'.
That would be interesting to know.
That would be interesting to know. Maybe next time, if he gets another chance, he'll take advantage of the opportunity.
Obviously, they got in a hurry to get rid of when he kept throwing them off every time they tried to pin him. Montel was kinda like them teevee rasslers I used to pull for every Saturday when I was a kid.
"it's about 20"
Host of zombie show's estimate of the number of Americans killed in Iraq the day before.
20%
the likelihood of a zombie nyooz feeder's estimate of the number of non-americans killed in Iraq (like, for example, Iraqis) on the day before being correct.
Frame the issue:
Montel - Opposes Iraq War. Ignores 9/11. Criticizes the media. Ignores 9/11. Reminds Americans that their fellows are being killed overseas in places like Iraq.
Drama. Tension!
The MEDIA ASK THEMSELVES - ARE *WE* PART OF THE PROBLEM?
the beginning of an airing out of our nations' dustiest and darkest corners!
EXPOSED! CENSOR BOB'S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR!
we now know who has been keeping you from knowing the truth about what someone said about something having nothing to do with 9/11!
yay! now we know they're not hiding ANYTHING! Time to hang up the paranoia, I'm going to live life!
Yeah you know about those truther people?
No I'm not allowed to read banned books.
well, they'd figured they'd made enough people realize that they were right and that it wasn't al qaeda that attacked freedom on nineeleven but then the media came clean about censorship and it turned out they hadn't censored ANYTHING about nineeleven but what they did find was so much more interesting, and, well, tawdry and classy, that our people were suffused with the sudden geometric surge in civic-minded-ness that lifted us to our actual lofty perch today.
What the hell are you talking about?
I haven't the foggiest, actually.
Ah well then, carry on
