True; however, the ratings are being garnered now when the show airs, and that's where the ad revenue is generated.

Star looked as if she'd just been shot when she was fired. I think Trump saw right through her attempt at playing the "sweetie" card. In fact, I need to watch it again, but I thought I heard him call her that or something similar when he let her go.
I liked George's comment as well.
For the first time, I really thought there was a good chance that Meat might get the axe, but he chose his words carefully and stood his ground, and Star got taken down as a result. Great job, Meat!
I do agree though, that there was cause to fire any of the 3 of them; I think Marlee got off easy due to the conflict between Meat and Star.
As for LaToya, she did accept her second firing gracefully.
