**** Jerry Springer’s Statement on the AHCA Healthcare Bill Passing The House **** James Edstrom & Jerry Springer May 4th will likely not be remembered as much as 9/11… and yet, what Congress did last Thursday will end up killing many more Americans than Osama bin Laden ever did. With millions and millions of people facing the reality of being dropped from insurance plans (unless the Senate defeats this bill), does anyone seriously believe that only 3000 Americans will die because they couldn’t afford a doctor, or a treatment, or medicine or a hospital? This cruel and utterly insensitive attack on middle and low-income Americans is an act of war… no less deadly and unconscionable, simply because the perpetrators of this legislative violence happen to be wealthy white men who reside in Washington. The picture of Republican Congressmen gathering on the White House lawn smiling, laughing, clapping and cheering what they just did is, frankly...

**** SKIP BEN'S KOSHER GET REAL AT CARNEGIE DELI **** Jerry Springer At Carnegie Deli Not many restaurants piss me off, but Ben's Kosher Deli just did. Every time my mother visits New York City, she wants Carnegie Deli. She wants her Pastrami and Corned Beef on Rye sandwich. This time I made a bad mistake.  I decided to try and save walking and time by going to Ben's Kosher Deli on 38th street and 7th avenue. I thought maybe it would be the same. I ordered her favorites at a cost at almost 17 bucks and I left the restaurant. Outside I feel like the bag is very light, so I open it up. To my surprise, the sandwich was small and there was no Corned Beef. I go back inside and ask for a refund. I am told the manager is downstairs and I will have to wait a while. I tell them I can not wait and I just want a refund. I tell them that this is a disgrace, that they sell this sandwich for almost 17 bucks and it is so small, my mother would still be hun...

 Jerry Springer BRETT WINTERBLE, on Sirius/XM (Sirius/XM-channel 168) scooped the East Coast Monday (and, even ABC’s The View) when he had on attorney Jose Baez (Casey Anthony) and unearthed several key points from the book. First, that he and his pregnant wife checked into the hospital under assumed names as his wife gave birth and, that his house accidentally went into foreclosure, because he was so wrapped up in the Anthony-case. His book, Presumed Guilty is a runaway best-seller. Winterble, in the last two weeks, has had on a wide-ranging series of guests, including: Karen Lynn Gorney from the film Saturday Night Fever; Bobby-producer Edward Bass; sex-therapist Debra Laino; Carmine Appice, the drummer from the legendary band, Vanilla Fudge; Dr. Taylor Rutledge who produced the documentary about DDT called 3 Billion and Counting; Director Tanya Wexler, who’s new film Hysteria stars Maggie Gyllenhaal and Hugh Dancy; Monkee-Micky Dolenz; Surpreme-Mary Wilson; music n...

**** TALK SHOW LEGEND JERRY SPRINGER IS BUSIEST MAN IN SHOW BUSINESS **** Jerry Springer Since I heard my friend of almost 20 years, Jerry Springer, was in NYC celebrating the 20th Anniversary of his hit show, The Jerry Springer Show ( www.jerryspringertv.com ) and was going to be in the city at Madison Square Garden for America's Got Talent Live Tour, I decided to give his talented publicist Linda Shafran a call and set up a quick photo shoot outside the Plaza Hotel. I figured we could get some great shots and I could film a quick interview for TimesSquareGossip.com and possibly for my television show that we have been filming just about everywhere in New York. We have filmed every big star but the show was missing something and that was Jerry Springer. I knew this would be fun and I knew the stuff to ask that no one even knows about Jerry, since I was one of the shows photographers in Chicago for many years. The footage we got was classic Jerry Springer. First of all, I have to ...

**** JERRY SPRINGER CELEBRATES 20 YEARS **** Jerry Springer In Times Square On Wednesday, October 27, host Jerry Springer celebrates the 20th anniversary of THE JERRY SPRINGER SHOW in a special episode taped in Times Square in New York City.

**** THE CHICAGO GOSSIP **** Jerry Springer's Pig Bella Someone is either a dog person or a cat person; rarely are they both. Whichever pet one prefers, people are fiercely loyal and don’t seem to understand their counterpart’s love of the other breed. Today two media giants are in competition on who has the most beautiful pet. If I set it up correctly, you can vote in the survey here ..... If I did not, then just send me an e-mail or comment on the blog. This latest battle came about because of WCIU-TV which runs a daily animal “beauty pageant,” (wciu.com) that they say will answer the age-old question of which pet has household supremacy. The contest is called “Cats vs. Dogs,” but on September 27th a battle was held between a cat and a pig. Bella, the pig, is owned by talk show host Jerry Springer whose show airs on WCIU-TV. The cat is owned by former Sun-Times columnist Robert Feder, who has a blog on the WBEZ site . All day on Tuesday, like in actual Chicago politics, there wer...
