Bill Clinton Said to Want TV Talk Show

[John Corn]

Former President Bill Clinton met with NBC executives Wednesday in Los Angeles to discuss hosting his own talk show, according to several television sources.

Although the talks are only preliminary, one source said Clinton's interest was serious and said he was demanding a fee of $50 million a year and had aspirations "of becoming the next Oprah Winfrey."

Wants $50m a year to be "the Next Oprah Winfrey".

There is a difference. Oprah can pull people from all walks of life, I expect most conservatives would not watch at all.

I guess that means that if we pay Bill $50M per year he is going to be come a black woman who loses and gains and loses and gains 50+ pounds... :D

Good Lord almighty, I could only imagine some of that boy's topics. I really worry about NBC if they bring Bill Clinton. Clinton, you lost a lot with that affair, but you have SOME credibility left as a president. Don't through it ALL down the crapper.

[Neil Derryberry]

Even though he was an awful President (IMO, no flames please), he is still a President, which carries a dignity that he can still damage with a stupid stunt like this. His office is above being a shock show host.

I missed it this morning, Howard Stern was going to talk about Clinton and his talk show.

[Brian Rector]

MSNBC announced that Clinton and NBC didnt come to an agreement yesterday.

You should have heard Rose Odonell (sp?) go off on her show about this. She said if Clinton does a talk show, she will become a republican and start campaigning for the Bush's. She also would want all of her money back that she donated.

I really don't know if she was kidding but it was really funny hearing her say that.

His office is above being a shock show host.

I wonder if the same was said of the Office of Mayor of Cincinnati just after Springer left.
