Story Highlights• Rosie O'Donnell leaving "The View" in June
• O'Donnell, ABC show couldn't agree on contract
• O'Donnell has been controversial, ratings-grabbing addition



NEW YORK (AP) -- Rosie O'Donnell's stormy tenure on "The View" will be a short one. ABC said Wednesday it was unable to agree on a contract with the opinionated host, and she'll leave the show in June.

O'Donnell said in a statement that "my needs for the future just didn't dovetail with what ABC was able to offer me."

"This has been an amazing experience," she said, "and one I wouldn't have traded for the world."

O'Donnell has helped raise the ratings for the daytime chat show invented by Barbara Walters. But her outspokenness has caused almost constant controversy, including a nasty name-calling feud with Donald Trump.

Translation: They were sick of me flapping my mouth every day and told me to get lost.

She'll wind up with her own show somewhere, unfortunately. At least until she sufferes her inevitable Don Imus-type meltdown.

100% correct, Maroon. Somewhere down the line, she'll give a strong statement that won't be politically correct and join Imus.
Maybe Rosie and Imus will get show together. Wouldn't they make a cute couple?

I predict we will see her in the Nathans Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest in the near future.

Whats really interesting and many people have forgotten, is that at the same time Rosie attacked Tom about the NRA adds, she was involved as a leading spokesperson for a major add campaign for Kmart, who at the time was one of the largest gun dealers in America.:rolleyes:

THAT'S IT! If Rosie's leaving The View I won't watch it anymore. Wait, I don't watch it anyway because I hate the show. Nevermind.

This development will significantly raise the intelligence level of that show. It still won't be anything to write home about, but it will improve.

[wedo]

I will say that Im a pretty libral in my thinking, but she was getting way out of line!! I think ABC did the right thing.
