It looks as though Rosie O’Donnell won’t be facing off with Larry King after all.
The acid-tongued talk-show host, who famously clashed with Elisabeth Hasselbeck on “The View,” announced on her blog Wednesday that talks to give her a prime-time show on MSNBC had fallen apart.
Saying the development was “just as well,” O’Donnell wrote in her usual shorthand style: “poof/my career as a pundit is over/b4 it began.”
The deal would have placed O’Donnell in the 9 p.m. slot, she said, opposite CNN’s “Larry King Live” and Fox News Channel’s “Hannity & Colmes.” Fox News dominates prime-time ratings for cable news channels, according to Nielsen data; CNN is second, and MSNBC is a distant third.
This sucks. I was looking forward to seeing Rosie’s head explode on a daily basis. Now I think Rosie is crazy, but she is damn entertaining. Kinda like Bill Oreilly. Crazy but entertaining.

A priest has been arrested on charges of stalking late-night talk show host Conan O’Brien by writing him threatening notes on parish letterhead, contacting his parents and showing up at his studio, prosecutors said Wednesday.
The Rev. David Ajemian, a priest in the Archdiocese of Boston, was arrested last week while trying to enter a taping session of NBC’s “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” at New York’s Rockefeller Plaza, said Barbara Thompson, a spokeswoman for the Manhattan prosecutor’s office.
Ajemian referred to himself as “your priest stalker” in one note and complained of not being allowed in to see an earlier taping of the O’Brien show, court papers say.
“Is this the way you treat your most dangerous fans?” the note said.
This story is creepy. Why would a priest stalk Conan? Unless he thought Conan looked like “Big Boy”…

Hulk Hogan’s son turned himself in Wednesday on charges stemming from a street-racing crash this summer that critically injured a passenger in his car, police said.
Nick Bollea, 17, was arrested on charges of reckless driving involving serious bodily injury, Clearwater police spokeswoman Elizabeth Daly-Watts said. He arrived at the Pinellas County Jail handcuffed and accompanied by two police officers, The Tampa Tribune reported.
“Because Nick is still a juvenile and has no prior criminal record, we are disappointed that he is being charged as an adult offender. However, we are confident that the evidence will demonstrate that this was an accident,” family spokesman Adam Handelsman said in a written statement.
This kid is a moron. He no doubt has a 8th grade education, and has whatever he wants at his pedicured fingertips.
“Daddy! I want to be a race car driver!”
“Duh… ok son!”
What’s next? Will Nick want to be an astronaut and Hulk will give him his own Space Shuttle to blow up? I probably shouldn’t give him any ideas.

Shia LaBeouf, the 21-year-old star of “Transformers” and the upcoming Indiana Jones movie, was arrested early Sunday morning after he refused to leave a Chicago Walgreens at 2:30 AM. LaBeouf, who appeared to be intoxicated, was popped after he ignored a security guard’s demand to leave the drugstore. LaBeouf, who is pictured above in a Chicago Police Department mug shot, was hit with a misdemeanor criminal trespassing charge and is scheduled to appear in court on November 28.
Awww poor Shia. I can relate man. I’ve been drunk in Walgreens many-a-time in my days back in Chicago. It’s like the thing to do. Get drunk and try to down as many Red Bulls in the soda aisle as possible before they catch you. Then demand a printer cartridge refill and ask to see the naughty photos the employees copy and keep in the mystery drawer behind the photo counter. It’s a good time.

So. There I was just working away as usual. I stop listening to music on my iTunes and see that I have some new podcasts waiting for me.
“Oh look,” I said. “Textra has a new podcast out.”
I like Textra with Natali Del Conte. She brings the text news in video format from the basement of PodShow out in San Francisco. The news is good, but I basically just tune in to see what Natali is wearing. You see… Natali is a fox.
I however, was not prepared for what was in my iTunes today. Natali wore a costume. A Hermione Granger costume.
I only had one reaction.
“Oh… My… God.”
Then I had a different reaction. Below the waistline.
And so I give you my new favorite pseudo celebrity. Congrats Natali. You just jumped Olivia Munn to snag the top spot.
