Filed under: Media Minute
In addition to all the firings going on at MTV/Viacom right now…..

The job cuts are at all levels of the company — television, film and parks.
Such a bummer!

I HOPE TO GOD THEY LAY OFF KATHY LEE GIFFORD!
Nice headline, Mario. Should've put my family pic up there instead. Perfect timing.
Yeah, well it is NBC. Maybe if they didn't suck so bad people would watch and some would keep their jobs. I haven't watched since they canceled The Black Donnellys, which I am still pissed about.
Is Crappie Lee the first to go ? Let's hope!
Perez, WHY, WHY, WHY, when things are getting this bad do you not support the country that you live in and use American services rather than foreign. Why is your top left link for technical support a Hungarian company. Are they nice and cheap???
Well, later everyone. Thanks for the support. I'm going to go pack up our things and stay at my mom's a while. I'm not sure when I'll be back on here since she doesn't have internet. I just wanted to explain things and say goodbye, for now anyway. Kisses.
Thanks President Bush to leave this country this way after your fantastic 8 years of crap !
Re: The real mama of two – by mama. please try to stop in and let us know how it's going.
i'll be thinking of you
Perez hates me ^^
That SUCKS!
Re: Miss McGillicutty – I agree. Black Donnellys was a great show!
Re: Milky Milky – That's not mama!!!!!!!
Re: Milky Milky – That was LettyBee!
A bummer??? THey need to lay them ALL off!!! Screw NBC!!
Why di they ALWAYS do it right before CHRISTMAS????
Re: The real mama of two – YOU PIECE OF SHIT.
HOW DARE YOU PREY ON OUR SYMPATHY!
for real, are you lettybee?
To this we can say Thank You Mr. Bush for fucking up our economy on a pointless war that cost Billions of Dollars. While the American Family pocked suffers your pocket and that of the Bush Dynasty fattens.
Ouch…..

But i know a lot of bitches that do NOTHING at the Universal park here in Orlando…..and get paid pretty well to do nothing….
.

Karma is a bitch….especially if your name is Katie or Ryan and you have been a cunt to everyone around you for most of your life….

HAHAHAHAHAHA
Whoopee, we're all gonna die.
AND MEANWHILE THESE FUCKING FAMOUS PEOPLE R STILL MAKING MILLIONS.WHAT A FUCKED UP WORLD THIS IS.
Re: The real mama of two – Uh oh, did they finally convict you of welfare fraud?
On the AP news this morning they listed off many companies who were going to be llaying off employees today. We are living in very scary and uncertain times. It's amazing what damage has been done over the past 8 years.
Good…NBC needs to go away for good. They never speak the truth. All they do is lie and anyone who works for them allows the lie to happen so they should lose there job and never work in that industry again…it does not pay to lie and hid the truth, NBC is proof of that.
It's not a let down… MTV sucks.. they have sucked since 1995…. they never play videos anymore… it is nothing but trash…… they need to rethink themselves completely. NBC is a joke.
Re: coco – Yes, it's Bush's fault that NBC can't put out good shows that people want to watch or truthful news…that's his fault of course…get a clue, stop blaming Bush for other people's mistakes. NBC layoff's have nothing to do with Bush. They are so left winged liberal, with their own agenda that no one wants to watch them or hear what they have to say.
CELEBRATION TIME…….

Good job ZUCKER and IMMELT, good job
*
doubt either on of them will be losing their jobs over their shitty decisions!!!!!!!!
Re: coco –
WOW…

you are brave for letting your stupidity show
be nice you guys. When you think of MTV why do you only think of music?!?! There are sooooooooooo many other divisions here. Good people are losing their jobs simply because this economy sucks. And right before Xmas. Have some compassion for those who didn't deserve to lose their jobs!!!! Shit.
Wasn't it when the democrats took over the house and the senate that things started to go to hell?
And I think many of us are done with the bias in the media and that is why many TV and print companies are going under.
And MTV, didn't they used to play music videos?
And finally the price of gas helped push the economy over the brink. Drill here Drill now, and it doesn't necessarily mean oil:)
HILLARIOUS!!!!!!!

to PAY for the LIVE fed of booooobama's taking over the world day celebration that MTV will be broadcasting they HAD TO FIRE ALL THOSE PEOPLE !!!!!!!!

Re: Vince will Shamwow your ass – oh….i soooo 2nd that!!
For sure Project Runway won't be back, how the hell could they afford it? JHC this sucks..thanks BUSH! ps…dump Willard Scott.
Can we fire the whole network Mtv for not ever playing music on a music channel? Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Yay! Is Olbermann on the list? That would be even better.
Look at their schedule - how could this *not* happen. "The Biggest Loser"??? what garbage.
AS LONG AS THEY KEEP MY MATT LAUER! I LOVES WAKING UP TO HIS IMAGE ON MY SCREEN. HE'S TOTALLY MY TYPE OF MAN. I'VE MET HIM ONCE & SAW HIM SHIRTLESS ON TV IN A WET SUIT. DAMN! I WAS SO WORKED UP I HAD TO GET MY BLACK BOOK AND LOCATE THE FIRST AVAILABLE "POWER BOTTOM" TO TELL HIM TO BRACE HIMSELF CAUSE I'M COMING OVER.
