2. That's what I kinda wondered....who's Debbie?

3. Star Jone's huge ego is her own demise. In show business, when they want you gone, you had better 'shut up and smile', and hope you can get your next gig.
You tell me who would want to hire Star Jones now? She is totally uncontrollable, and certainly not a team player. In addition, Jones has very little to offer, in fact it is only about her that she hawks. Sad. Going on Larry King,to complain, will make Star Jones dig her own grave.

4. From the Daily 10

5. Living in Los Angeles, I saw the Fox 11 news. TMZ is totally oversensationalizing what happened. Debbie was set to come on anyway. That was stated OVER AND OVER AND OVER. If you can get a transcript I suggest you do that because the impression TMZ left is foul and it was hardly like that

6. I know who Debbie is. (She's on the E channel now) What I meant was the classy thing for Debbie to have done in regards to this "mess" was a no comment and move on.

7. TMZ cracks me up with their little video clips. They should have shown the before and after. The Star comment was such a small thing. As Debbie mentioned The View was a great starting point that gave them all chances and she was young and really didn't know what to expect. Her contract wasn't renewed just like Stars wasn't but in my opinion Debbie handled her goodbye far more classier than Star's.

8. who says that Star Jones is going on the Larry King show to complain. Let's keep in mind that there are two sides to EVERY story. I'm sure if you were being protrayed in a negative light you would also want to correct that. You don't have to like someone to respect them.I think that is where Barbara Walters dropped the ball, she did not respect Star. Barbara is so two face it's not even funny. She says one thing but means another. She is on the View every day and will be able to make her snide remards.

9. Oh debbie was only on for like a year or two, right? She was a comlete idiot.

Lisa Ling was the best replacement for her. She actually had a brain!

10. Debbie is a b@$%h anyway. Watch her on the daily 10 and you'll see why Star "abandoned" her, and why everyone else should too.

11. I like that Star spoke up for herself. Why shouldn't she be upset, after all she was techinically fired when they didn't renew her contract. I'm glad she stood up and said that she was leaving and I think she did do it gracefully. She didn't say anything mean about anyone and she did say that she will miss her ABC family and thanked everyone. So what if she did it two days before it was planned. Debbie didn't have 9 years on the show and didn't make the show a success so to compare Debbie and Star isn't completely the same thing. If Star truly did care for Debbiefriendship then she should have remained friends and that is a different story all together. Star won't have a hard time finding work. I hope she uses her law degree and does something with entertainement just like how she started with the OJ Simpson trial. Maybe she could go to Court TV or CNN and get her own show there like Nancy Grace has. I look forward to seeing her on Larry King tonight. It shows that she is in control of her own future....

12. People get fired. It happens everyday. There isn't any reason for ABC to keep an employee that they no longer want. Star looks like a vengeful c*nt! When you are fired from any professional situation it is always best to just smile say "thank you for the opportunity" and look for another job. How is this mud slinging going to help Star's already tarnished image as a diva that is out of control? Who would hire her now, regardless if she is justified or not!?

13. Oh please Debbie. As someone who watched you during those times, it's patently obvious you did not come off as having a brain cell. Im glad you've rebounded on entertainment shows, but it's pretty low class to equate your firing to the smackdown that's Babwa's trying to pull here (or has pulled with her Rosie fanfare).

Seriously, if Star had stood up for Debbie back then I would have wondered what was wrong with her. Debbie shouldn't be so petty to try to insert herself into something that's already passed her by. They're not going to rehire you.

14. Shame on Barbara! for picking Rosie over Star, she did right, yes she is smart and people don't want too see a strong black woman, go too court TV and be a black Nancy Grace which will be hard to do because Nancy is the bomb but Star will do a fantastic job to.

15. Star showed her lack of class by not letting the focus for the beginning of that show be on the Charlie Gibson goodbye. Trust me she has known for months and waiting until the end of the broadcast or for a day or two as planned wouldn't have killed her. She wanted to go out with a bang. I find her self centered and if you worked in the studio you would too. She's a horror to work around
