Martha Stewart Whining.

Martha Stewart wouldn’t be winning any points in the boardroom for being a team player with the comments she recently made in an interview with Newsweek Magazine. The media maven claims too many cooks in the kitchen – not her bitter, unpleasant and generally cold demeanor - led to the failure, and ultimate cancellation, of her version of The Apprentice last fall.

Martha’s recipe for success called for just one helping on The Apprentice, specifically hers and hers alone. And to really get the fire burning for fans of the popular series, Martha also claims she was supposed to kick off her premiere episode by firing original Apprentice overlord Donald Trump himself, something he, as co-owner of both productions, has emphatically denied was ever slated to happen. It was the combination of both versions airing at once, Martha firmly believes, that sealed her show’s eventual fate. In her Newsweek interview, Martha insists that "Having two 'Apprentices' was as unfair to him as it was unfair to me," she said, "But Donald really wanted to stay on."

Right. Last time I checked, Martha, it didn’t seem to do too much damage to the Donald, who issued his own statement to the Associated Press, saying, "I wish she would be able to take responsibility for her failure.” Ouch. Or perhaps more fittingly, as Emeril would say, BAM!
