The Death Of A Mogul

Good morning. On March 7, 1958, my Uncle Simeon died. The next day, his body was flown back his birthplace (Yambol, Bulgaria) for burial. My asshole father, Harry, did not attend nor did he talk to Simeon during the last five years of his life….

CES After Dark

So last night I got really drunk. I’m not exactly sure how I wound up in one of Caesars’ vomitoriums face down – and I’m not sure why I wasn’t wearing pants. Lying in the stall next to me was Harvey Weinstein – out cold….

Sumner Redstone’s Holiday Party

Over the weekend, I went to Sumner Redstone’s Holiday Party at Bob’s Big Boy in Burbank.  It was a pretty sad event with only a few of the invited guests bothering to show up. Sumner kept staring at the front door and mumbled over and…

Gay Moroccan Poetry Is Not Going To Save Our Publishing Business

Last night, I had dinner with Cyrus Weinstein – President of the Manka Bros. Publishing Group. He informed me that his group is in ‘super-duper danger’ (as opposed to the ‘super danger’ he told me about last year) with books and magazine sales way down year-over-year (a ‘reverse hockey stick’,…

Hollywood Is Out Of Visionaries

UPDATE:  And now we can add Bob Iger to the list below. The coward couldn’t stick it out like a real mogul would.  Real moguls don’t retire. ——– This morning, about 11:00, I had an epiphany. I was trying to think of someone in this…
