July 2007...
 

During her news, Robin stated incorrectly that Eddie Debartolo is the current owner of the San Francisco 49ers and totally butchered the pronunciation of his last name.

John and Denise York have been the owners since 2000. What's one more fumble during the news for Robin Quivers? (7.31.07) -Crazy Ray.

 


 

 

Reality TV expert Robin Quivers once again voiced her opinion on a show she's barely seen the promos for, saying of the Bret Michaels dating show Rock of Love, "is on MTV!"

As usual Robin is wrong.  If you would like to check out Rock of Love, don't look for it on MTV, try VH1 on Sunday nights.  (7.31.07) -Shudduppa you face



 

Howard was playing music from the Sirius channels today and asking the gang to name the artists.

Shockingly, Robin chimed in with the correct answer of Daughtry for one of the songs. But, even when Robin is right she gets something wrong as she screamed the name of the song was "It’s Over".

The name of the song as we all know is "It’s Not Over". What should really be over though is Robin’s career as a “News Woman”.  (7.31.07) -GarbageRobin


During Robin's news she said Zsa Zsa's Gabor's husband, Frederic Von Anhalt, was found naked in his car after being robbed by three women who stole "$4,000 dollars, or something like that".

Had Robin actually read the article she would see the $4,000 dollar amount actually references a court hearing he attended where his wife was ordered to pay $4,000 for failing to attend a hearing.  (7.30.07) -Dora in Philly



Another medical topic and more misinformation from former nurse Robin Quivers. While discussing Artie's apparent "seizure" condition Robin attempted to explain his situation by stating "you're not really conscious during a seizure".

Well, if Robin had had the time to check before speaking out of school she'd realize that there are many kinds of seizures and that not all deem you unconscious.  (7.30.07) -JD's mom's koifish.


 

According to Robin, The Simpsons Movie is out today.  Don't rush out to see it though, it doesn't open until July 27th

D'oh!  (7.25.07) -Jimmy T.



 

 

During the news Robin stated that Barry Bond's "girlfriend" would be appearing in Playboy in November.  While Kimberly Bell claims to be the ex-mistress of Bonds, she is not his current girlfriend.

Another error for Quivers.  (7.24.07) -robinswrong



 


While quizzing Scott Baio about his finances, Robin said the name of Baio's show with Dick Van Dyke was "Prescription Medicine".

Scott starred alongside Van Dyke on "Diagnosis Murder" from 1993-95.

Seriously, "Prescription Medicine"? That's almost as bad a name for a TV series as "The Robin Quivers Show".  (7.24.07) -Anything else, Robin?
 



During the interview with Scott Baio, Howard asked Baio to rate a woman from 1 to 10. Scott said three and Robin said "three out of what?"

Later in the discussion, Howard was talking about how Scott was asked to stop sleeping all the women at the Playboy Mansion. He said it's like when hunters are asked to stop hunting animals that are....and Robin said "extinct".

You can't hunt anything that's extinct, Robin. Extinct means they don't exist anymore.  (7.24.07) -Robin's Dad
 

Today during the discussion with Russell Simmons about Michael Vick and his ties to dog-fighting, Robin blurted out that Vick has been asked not to show up to training camp.

If she would have checked her sources, she would have know that Vick was ORDERED not to attend camp by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.  (7.24.07) -joey b
 


 

During the opening segment when Richard was discussing Catholics and the teaching on masturbation, he asked Robin if women have wet dreams. She responded yes, they do, and that, “they have to get up and confess that.”

That is patently false. For nocturnal emissions, these are not voluntary and are therefore not sinful.

When will Robin confess that she doesn't know everything?  (7.24.07) -Hero1240.



Today Robin claimed that Sumner Redstone's company Viacom owns Great Adventure. Six Flags is a publicly traded company under the symbol Six and owns the Great Adventure Parks. Daniel Synder, owner of the Washington Redskins, controls 12% of Six Flags with his company Red Zone LLC.

Viacom owns Paramount Parks.  (7.24.07) -joe.

 

At the start of the show, Howard asked Robin to explain to him what was going on in the Gov. Eliot Spitzer scandal, rationalizing that because (Howard's words here): a. she is smarter than he is, and b. she is a newswoman, she'd be able to explain it simply and easily for him.

Of course, Robin had no idea what the story was about, despite the fact that it was on the front page of every New York City newspaper today. Fortunately, Bababooey managed to explain it over the intercom in less than thirty seconds, which is quite impressive because a. he is an executive producer, not a newsperson, and b. he is horse-toothed monkey boy. (kidding, I love Gary!)

So is Robin a. not smarter than fafafloley, b. not really a newswoman or c. all of the above?  (7.24.07) -Impeach Robin

During the news Robin reported the death of Tammy Faye Messner. She started talking about seeing Tammy Faye on "The Real World."

Robin needs to learn to keep it real, because Tammy Faye was on the second season of "The Surreal Life."  (7.23.07) -Burbank Ball Buster




 

Robin Quivers reported during her news today that a minor league coach was killed after being struck in the head with a foul ball while coaching 3rd base. According to the AP report that was read on Fox Sports, he was coaching first base.

As a player, he played 3rd base. The least she could do is respect the deceased by getting the facts straight.  (7.23.07) -Kyle



Potential new wackpacker James, dubbed "Special Ed", called into the show today and Howard asked him a series of simple math questions. Special Ed didn't know the answer to what is 30+20, 8+2 or 300+200.

Howard then asked him what is 50+21 and Special Ed replied, "71".  Robin said, "71" and then began her demeaning cackle. Howard informed the mathematician Robin that Special Ed was correct.  Who's the slow person now Robin?  (7.23.07) -The Wiz.
 


Robin reported that some guy won the 2007 World Series of Poker and could not remember where she had placed his name. 

How about checking any news web site, Robin?  Congratulations to Jerry Yang, the 2007 WSOP Champ.  (7.19.07) -superguysteve


 

During the news today, Robin said that the Senate stayed up all night "last night". It was actually the night before last. I guess a day late is still good enough for a news mac-hine like Robin.

Also during the news, discussing the stock market, Robin was about to play a clip when Howard said something about the stock market going through the roof. Robin defiantly said "Yea but that doesn't mean anything, listen to the guy!". After playing the clip, Howard didn't know what they were saying. Robin agreed saying "I was gonna (sic) say... I don't understand what they're saying".

If she actually learned to say what she was "gonna say", before someone else does, she might have a little credibility.

Finally, Robin said Drew Carrey was going to take over for Bob Barker. The clip she played right after only said they "were in talks" with Drew. I guess that enough of a confirmation for The Q.  (7.19.07) -JayLBC


Today in Robin's "News", Robin informed us of the leak of the seventh Harry Potter book, which according to her, "is due to be released tomorrow [7/20]".

Really? According to Amazon.com, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows it is due to be released on Saturday, 7/21. Thanks for the mis-information, Robin!  (7.19.07) -TeJay G


 

After finally winning the Mike Walker game a few weeks ago, Robin has got back on track now losing the last two in a row.

If you are scoring at home her totals are now: 2 1/2 out of 21 in 2007 (12%) and 5 1/2 out of the last 46 (12%).  (7.19.07) -robinswrong

 

 

Howard was talking this morning about having watched Scott Baio's new reality show, Scott Baio is 45 and Single.

Robin asked incredulously, "his reality show has been on?!". She then agreed with Howard that he must have received an advanced copy.

Scott Baio's show began airing on Sunday (7-15) on VH1 and has aired in repeats since then.  Robin Quivers is 54 and Still Wrong.  (7.19.07) -Mary/robinswrong
 

The world traveler Robin Ophelia Quivers erroneously stated that in an attempt to combat congestion in Paris, they have bicycles all over the city, which you can just take and ride. We might have an indication of how many cycling miles Robin logged between meals while in Paris, as these bicycles are for rent. You swipe your credit card and rent the cycles on an hourly, daily, weekly or annual basis. The cycle stops are all around the city and you do not need to return a bike to this point of origin.

There are several cities in the world where there are government supplied free bicycles, but Paris is not one of them. What is one more throw away misstatement to someone who has made a career of throwing them?  (7.18.07) -Genman


 

During the news on today's show, Robin pronounced Sen. David Vitter's last name as V-ee-ter instead of V-it-ter before George corrected her. Any "newsperson" would know (or) learn how to pronounce a U.S. senator's name, yes? Especially one in the news as much as Vitter has been in recent days.  (7.17.07) -Mularky
 

During the news today, Robin told Howard he was not considering Barack Obama as a candidate for president because he is black. Howard had to correct her and say he is considering every candidate. She got on his case by saying that Howard is wrong by not going and finding out more about Obama.

On several occasions in fact, Robin incorrectly told Howard how he feels about various issues. She is not only an authority on every topic, but now knows what everyone thinks and feels. Robin would be better off trying to get her news stories correct.  (7.17.07) -Not a Robin fan


Today, during Steve Langford's update, the crew talked about the World Series of Poker. Artie said he thought Sam Simon was still in the hunt for the grand prize and when Howard asked how many people are in the tournament Robin blurted out "hundreds". Artie politely corrected her and said probably thousands (this year there were over 6,000 hopeful poker junkies).

No surprise, just another subject our dear Robin thinks she knows about, but Artie called her bluff.  (7.17.07) -NJ Robinhater.

 

During the conversation with Riley Martin today, Robin quipped that NASA has been around since President Kennedy.

In fact, NASA was established in 1958 after both President Eisenhower and the Unites States Congress determined that greater efforts were needed to compete with the U.S.S.R. space program. To the moon, Robin!  (7.17.07) -Bad Santa



In an excerpt from the Real Doll documentary that Howard played today, an employee for the company was talking about a customer who wanted pubic hair all over the doll.

Robin thought she was being so clever when she said that the customer should ask for the "Cro-Mangin" woman. Robin, even the Piltdown Man knows that the correct term is Cro-Magnon, not Cro-MANGIN. No wonder your TV show was cancelled before it hit the airwaves.  (7.17.07) -ss.

 

During the news, Robin told of an accident at a New York Yankees vs. Los Angeles Dodgers baseball game. It wasn't until Artie pointed out a little later that the Yankees were playing the Los Angeles Angels, not the Dodgers.

Robin had the gall to ask, "Who can keep track of all these teams?" Apparently not a supposed news woman. Our little Angel is Dodging the facts again.  (7.16.07) -Burbank Ball Buster


Today, Howard was talking about the news magazine report regarding a movie with a character supposedly based on Howard himself. Robin, never one to choose her words before speaking, interrupted to say that she heard Steve Langford talking about it on one of his "headline things".

"Headline things"? Hmmm. Does she mean the headline things that play every hour on the space radio box? And tells us news-type stuff? Or did she mean, perhaps, a Howard 100 News Brief?

Maybe only people who listen to the "Howard Stern Thing" know what they're called. Welcome back, Robin!  (7.16.07) -Impeach Robin
