WOW! How great was Montel?
Great and all powerful FOX was put in its patriotic place...Heath ledger an "Icon" come on he made a few movies(one controversial) and he's a legend and a icon. What they say to Montel ..."get the hell out and don't come back, That'll teach you for dissing us. Oh yeah , were not renewing your show...28 soldiers . Who really cares? Not our viewers"

Glad I don't watch FOX news Laughing

...or Montel either Wink
