The view is not pretty.

I am under a deadline to send this cargo out on the Underground Railroad, so forgive the lack of pithy introduction and let us proceed to a quick parsing:

• I now appreciate the visionary business acumen in describing their next business venture as an online version of The View . This is the online equivalent of watching Elizabeth Hasselbeck (in the form of the maniacally braying laughter of Our Lady of Introspection) react to the subject being more interested in Sherri Shepherd (played by the always pleasantly oblivious Meghan), while Joy Behar (Mary) barks completely uninteresting questions about what he is wearing. They so need a Whoopi and Barbara to complete the circle of unbearable.
• Maybe they found their Barbara Walters? Name dropping, insidery perspective. Needs a little more self-assuredness and an inexplicable accent, but a solid formal audition nonetheless.
• Wait, does that make me the Whoopi? I decline the position. Lay down with dogs and resultant fleas and all that.
• Note to Matt White: You need to hire the publicist for Leven Rambin. That last name might seem familiar. You will thank me later.
• Evidently, some people don’t enjoy sharing the limelight camera time This is becoming painfully obvious.
• You know how some mean people insinuate that the Pink Lady often talks out her ass? Well, thanks for the visual.
