Chopping Up Truth In Media Since 2009

Scott Garell

TBS – Go Get Your Shinebox

What is it going to take for TBS (or any other Basic Cable channel) to get a little respect? I watched the premiere week of Conan and thought it was fine and exactly what I expected (which is a slight disappointment, right?).  (Also, why was…

Say It Ain’t So, Tony DiSanto

Seriously? Is this the guy you want to work for? Ugh. Oh, well… It’s just a shame. Tony, you have a reputation for being one of the good guys in Hollywood and you’re going to work for Ben Silverman? Come on, man! I’m on-board with…

More BS (I Mean Wisdom) From Ben Silverman

Ben Silverman needs to eat.  Wild eyed and gulag skinny, Ben took the stage at Sharon Waxman’s “The Grill” (can’t wait to blog about that some day) and continued to tell people he is changing the world. “I’m not 21 and still in my dorm…

Electus – Starring Ben Silverman

Apparently there is a new movie coming out called “Electus” and it looks like it stars Ben Silverman. This afternoon, I thought I would do a little checking up on Ben’s $100 million dollar company and discovered that, unlike the way the website looked a…

Jason Bateman Cuts iPhone Line – Gets Booed

Who cares?  He’s a celebrity and celebrities win.  Deal with it.  No one would care if the Pope or Rupert Murdoch was moved to the front of the line. I think the ‘booing’ was more because of the Orbit Gum Commercial Jason produced for DumbDumb…

Electus – COMING SOON!

I see Ben got the message (though the horse and buggy logo doesn’t inspire “future of entertainment”). “Coming Soon” is a step in the right direction, I suppose.  Just be sure and have a “Thanks for the Memories” logo ready once the money is gone….

Electus.com – Looking Good!

So, after my very long vacation, I decided to check in on my old friend Ben Silverman’s new company – Electus.  Now, I’ve been pretty tough on Electus and Ben Silverman since this venture was announced 11 months ago(!) – so, I went to Electus.com…

I’m Back From Mt. Kilimanjaro And Ready To Go

Now THAT’S what I call a month off. As many of you have noticed, I haven’t been around for the past month (replies to your emails are coming).  Where have I been?  CLIMBING MT. KILIMANJARO! I was told MK is considered one of the easiest…

Ben Silverman Is Not A Visionary

OK, don’t go all crazy MIPTV Conference people, Ben Silverman didn’t say shit that hasn’t been said before by… everyone producing new media content. Perhaps he says it in a way that make people think it sounds new or perhaps people just want to party…

Ben Silverman’s MIPTV Keynote Address

It recently came to my attention that Ben Silverman was asked to give a keynote address at this year’s MIPTV Conference in Cannes, France on April 13, 2010.  Realizing that Ben is a very busy man (what with single-handedly changing the media landscape… again), I…

About Jill Kennedy

Jill Kennedy is a former media analyst for a major Wall Street investment bank that has now gone out of business (in disgrace).

 

Manka Bros. (and the Manka Business Channel) hired her to cover the world of media (not the world of Medea) in her own words without corporate interference.

About Medea

Medea was a real bitch from classical mythology - as most famously dramatized by Euripides.

 

She was a sorceress and wife of Jason, whom she assisted in obtaining the Golden Fleece. When Jason deserted her, she chopped up their children.

 

One could say Medea acted as rationally as a major media company.
