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.
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.

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.

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.
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!

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)

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
