You Haven’t Got It
I’m back. Thank God. I didn’t blog most of the past year because I was writing a book that I got actual money for (just so you know, blogs don’t really pay) and because I just didn’t have an angle. Not sure I do now…

If CES Were Held In Fresno, No One Would Go
I think Tech reporters really only care about CES because it is in Las Vegas. If the show were held in a place like Fresno or Akron does anyone really believe reporters would trek from all over the world to see LG’s new roll-up screen? Of course not….
Hollywood Studios’ Only Chance For Long-Term Survival
GO PRIVATE. There will never – ever – be enough growth and margin improvement to satisfy Wall Street. Maybe short-term the studios will get a bump by telling investors they are going to make 100 comic book movies over the next 5 years – but after…
Another Genius Move By Marvel
And that is not sarcastic. Today, on “The View“ it was announced that the Marvel character “Thor” will now be a woman in the comic books. This is NOT the real God that people actually worshiped a thousand years ago or so (Manka Bros. is a producing…
The Verisimilitude Of Sarah Palin
Even though Sarah Palin probably doesn’t know what “verisimilitude” means – she knows exactly what it is because she is the living embodiment of the word. Sarah Palin is living (and profiting) from the character of Sarah Palin that has been created for her by…
The Great Media Bloodbath of 2014
5/12/14 UPDATE: AT&T to acquire DirecTV! Lock the doors – it’s scary out there. 2/12/14 UPDATE: Holy Crap, 2014 just got a whole lot uglier (and it was already hideous) with the announcement of Comcast acquiring Time Warner Cable! ORIGINAL POST: It’s coming. Holy shit…
CBS Cancels ‘We Are Men’
Really sad. The people who created this show really thought they had another “Friends.” Oh, well. Next time – be more funny – and stop trying to write for the idiots who you believe are not as smart as you. Chin up, maybe Basic Cable…
Journalism Is Dead
If other blogs didn’t steal my stuff years ago, I would have said R.I.P. Journalism – but “R.I.P.” as a way of saying a something is dead is also dead. So, what do I mean by “Journalism Is Dead?” Very simple. Journalism is dead. I’ll…
Lloyd Blankfein Is A Douche
It’s my shortest blog of the year – but I think the point is solid. Here’s just one of the many reasons from NYMAG.com Jill Kennedy – OnMedea
Marissa Mayer Needs To Get Her Voice Back
The title is not some abstract reference for reconnecting with a global vision… She LITERALLY needs to get her voice back. I’m not sure I can listen to another interview with that raspy, unhealthy voice. And here’s one of the more recent interviews… Seriously, Marissa,…
