Last week Jon Stewart ripped CNN a new one when they reported that someone was arrested for the Boston Marathon Bombing, but they were wrong. Well after that gaffe, they were very cautious that they didn’t make any more mistakes. By doing so they gave The Daily Show host a lot to work with, and he ran with it…boy did he run with it. But then again he really didn’t have to say much because the most trusted name in news was funny all on their own. Especially when a tired Susan Candiotti made an analogy that will leave you as speechless as it did the Comedy Central host.
Now I am not making light of what happened in Boston, what I want is all of the news agencies to take the news more seriously and be more responsible when they are reporting on horrific events.
Jane Lynch was a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show today and the daytime host scared her while she was showing video of the Glee actress previously being scared on the show. Part of me thinks that is really mean, but then the other part of me really enjoyed it. Because just like Ellen, I love to watch people being tortured like that.
Before Jeanne Cooper was The Dame of Genoa City on The Young and The Restless, she was a dame in another city! How beautiful was the 30 year old actress in that 1959 episode. In fact she looks the same now as she did then!
There are many movies that Michael Bay should be sorry for, but there is only one that is actually apologizing that he made. The director told The Miami Herald, “I will apologize for Armageddon, because we had to do the whole movie in 16 weeks. It was a massive undertaking. That was not fair to the movie. I would redo the entire third act if I could. But the studio literally took the movie away from us. It was terrible. My visual effects supervisor had a nervous breakdown, so I had to be in charge of that. I called James Cameron and asked ‘What do you do when you’re doing all the effects yourself?’ But the movie did fine.”
I guess I am in the minority, but that was one of the few movies of his that I actually enjoyed.
