Great broadcast! Thanks for answering my question too. You’re probably right about Rosie not coming back as a guest host/speaker in the near future but hopefully she will after some time, healing, and forgiveness.

so what do u all think?
have to say that i am seriously disappointed with general ‘fluffy’ content since rosie’s departure…
used to some intense debate on isues that mattered. I’m not really interested in Barbra’s attempts and being controversial, i mean really does anyone care if she has VPL???
they need to sort it out seriously soon.
Please don’t ‘avoid’ talking about the war…. because that sort of serious debate is what has drawn the extra viewers and ratings, just because roise has left doesn’t mean that the issues also need to be left behind.

GET BACK ON THE HORSE AND GET SERIOUS!!!!

I think they will get back to the controversial topics. I imagine they are just going through a cooling off period of sorts. The have to realize that they need to talk about serious issues to get the viewers engaged.

I hope your right winnie….

I also hope they address some of the the other format changes that where bought in when rosie first started, like the viewer give aways, i mean i’m sure that most people see it for what it really is, blatant product placement. I find it annoying and patronizing. It feels forced and is unnessesary. I hope that it will fall by the wayside as did the ‘viewer co-host’ (which was a huge disaster) and the confetti….
