Re: OT: Merrill Markoe & Carol Leifer comment on Ellen's dog drama

Oh, I understand the intense emotions," said Merrill Markoe, owner of
four dogs, author, humorist and original head writer for David
Letterman's show. She added, though, that she didn't quite see why
DeGeneres would need to make them so public: "It wouldn't be my
inclination to go in front of cameras and announce something personal
like that."<


Ding. Her tearful display didnt win any points with me. Sure both sides
could have worked something out but Ellen making it public probably
pissed off the Rescue League even more. Ellen, more than most of us,
should have known to read what she was signing.
