Ellen Degeneres, Music Deadbeat?

My, my, this Robert is wondering about Ms. Ellen Degeneres.

She was announced as a judge on American Idol at the same time the record companies sued her TV show? It seems all

that music Ms. Degeneres dances around to, is being used without any permissions or payments to the record companies. What could the producers of her show be thinking?

Plain common sense dictates you must have permission to use music on TV. When asked why they didn't get permission, the show producers said: "they didn't roll that way?

This Robert's notes this must be a sign of the times, a music crook is promoted to a music judge.

Boss: -1, Grammys: 0

While I was boarding, It looks like Mr. NARAS Portnow has succeeded in finessing the Grammy Award Show past those poor striking writers.

Neil, good job, the record industry, already in the toilet, does need its big night. So what did you have to give those poor picketers anyway?

I just hope for your sake, this year's show doesn't suck as bad as when you tried to resuscitate poor Sly Stone. I was just wondering why did you snub the Boss? He had a #1 record this year, and he's not on American Idol.
