e CCA took control, the UBS TV network was floundering, with less than 7% of national TV revenues. "To flounder" is to move with great difficulty, or to try and regain balance. I am submitting to the board of directors a plan for the coordination of the main profit centers. "To submit" is to officially give over or distribute. For any company, "the board of directors" are the officials that meet every few months to decide on general company direction. "To coordinate" is to organize or set up. News divisions are expected to lose money, but to our philosophy, this is a wanton fiscal affront to be resolutely resisted. Hackett’s way of announcing the news division will have to make money in the future. A "wanton affront" is a shocking and offensive act or statement, and "fiscal" is another word for financial. Why was I led up to that podium and publicly humiliated in front of the stockholders? A "podium" is the high part of a floor from which people can speak to an audience. "To humiliate" a person is to completely embarrass them, and "stockholders" are people who own stock in a company. Howard announces to his viewers that life is filled with bullshit, as Max continues to fight Hackett for the independence of the news division. I announced that I was going to commit public suicide; Admittedly, an act of public madness. A key word in this movie, meaning total insanity or craziness. I just ran out of bullshit. Another key word in this film, and a critical concept in life. A crude but very common word for lies, nonsense, or anything said that is completely ridiculous. Ok, cut him off! :: Leave him on! If this is how he wants to go out… Here, "to cut off" someone is to stop broadcasting them over the air. We don’t know why were going through this pointless pain and decay… If something is "pointless," there is no reason for it. "Decay" is a useful word referring to the physical process of rotting or decomposing. If there is anybody out there who can look around this demented slaughterhouse of a world we live in.... "Demented" is a good word for morally sick or depraved. A "slaughterhouse" is where animals are killed and cut into meat. ....and tell me that man is a noble creature,…..that man is full of bullshit! "Noble" is another word for honorable. A "creature" is a living being. This is going out to 67 affiliates. "Affiliates" are the local TV stations around the country that form part of the national TV network. I was married for 33 years of shrill, shrieking fraud! "Shrill" and "shrieking" sounds are both high and disagreeable, like a cat screaming in pain. In this case, "fraud" is a big lie, and perhaps Howard’s way of saying he and his wife never loved each other. You were primarily responsible for this colosally stupid prank. "Colossal" m
