In the overall scheme of celebrities, Rosie O'Donnell is fairly small. Not in girth mid you, but she is hardly an A-lister. But like so many others, Rosie has decided to try to bump her rating by trashing A-list celebs. Thanks to her now subordinate Barbara Walters, she has a venue where she can attack and ridicule stars each day.

| Rosie O'Donnell Backs Off American Idol, Attacks Oprah |
O'Donnell is now the queen hen on 'The View.' The ABC morning talk show has noticed a ratings bump since O'Donnell took over the show from momma hen Barbara Walters. Last week, Rosie, the same woman that mocks people daily on the show, harped that American idol judges Jewel, Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell were four millionaires trashing the little guy.

The same woman who had just made fun of Asians was screaming bloody murder that American idol was cruel. Like a parasite, Rosie needs a larger host to boost her name recognition and what better way than to hop on the back of American idol?
Perhaps there is one. Now Rosie is trashing talk show queen Oprah. It seems Rosie did not take kindly to Oprah having on Shawn Hornbeck, the 15-year old that was allegedly kidnapped in Missouri and rescued after over four years.

AOL Entertainment website TMZ.Com notes that Rosie challenges Oprah on her blog. The item gives this analysis: Rosie, in her nonsensical, haiku-meets-illiterate-rambling kinda way, refers to Hornbeck on her blog as "paraded out for america to see." She goes on:
"after 4 years captive
a new haircut couldn't hide
his tormented eyes"
[…]
"ben
will not be appearing
on tv today
a moment of sanity"
***
Many will believe the translation is - we couldn't get the kid and his parents to come on 'The View.' The staff at TMZ doles out this advice to the loud mouthed host: Careful Rosie, going after the Donald is one thing, but you might not want to take on the O. Has anyone seen James Frey lately?
