Whoops! Just three days after sending everyone employed by TV rags The Insider and Entertainment Tonight a catty e-mail in which he called Insider host Lara Spencer out of touch and claimed she makes viewers want to "vomit," recovering addict Pat O'Brien is out on his ass. According to Page Six, O'Brien's bosses were "infuriated" by the missive.

O'Brien had been demoted from host to correspondent at The Insider following some time at rehab, apparently leaving him with some jealousy, resentment and anger issues. Shocking.

Time now for sad math: fired + bad attitude + recession = relapse

The Insider correspondent Pat O'Brien is quite possibly one of our favorite Hollywood train wrecks. We all remember when he made those infamous drunk dials in 2005 in which he romantically told a girl, "You are so f–king hot." (Swoon.) He went to rehab shortly thereafter and again in 2007. Expect a third trip in the near future, because he's reportedly fired from his job at The Insider for yet another classy move: He sent an e-mail to the show's staff in which he complained about how much he hates anchor Lara Spencer. According to Pat, Lara makes people "vomit" when she frets over an Emmy gown because many viewers can't afford food or gas. Fair enough. You know what else makes us vomit, Pat? This.

Update: Text of the e-mail, in which O'Brien proclaims himself a "favorite son" of Iowa, after the jump.

Showing a rare glimmer of restraint, Entertainment Tonight and The Insider announced they will not be airing a Heath Ledger video that shows him at a drug-filled party (it was taped two years ago, so it kind of lacks relevancy). We're not quite sure why they are no longer running the video they reportedly paid big bucks for, but the damage has already been done, really.

Out of respect for Heath Ledger's family, Entertainment Tonight and The Insider have decided not to run the Heath Ledger video which has been circulating in the world media.

Before you start getting those warm and fuzzies for ET and The Insider, remember that Pat O'Brien broadcasted in front of the funeral home during Heath's casket removal. Obviously out of respect.
