- How To Succeed In The Media Business Through Raffles: If you’re a TVNewser kind of guy, then enter The Huffington Post’s “Contagious Festival” to win a date with Nora Ephron and John Cusack to talk development deals. And if you’re a Fishbowl kind of girl, Ed2010 is selling tickets to win a date with either Newsweek’sMark Whitaker or Jane’s Brandon Holley. A senior editor gig is a mere ping pong ball away!
- Hasn’t anyone seen Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life? Keith Kelly is given a sneak peek of Office Pirates, and he isn’t impressed. I just can’t believe that no one has though to make a reference to “The Crimson Permanent Assurance” before now.
- When I was young cub of a reporter, I once asked my editor, “When will I start failing up? The answer is still “someday,” but Frank Biondi continues to be my role model, pocketing $6 million for his supporting role in Carl Icahn’s tilt at the Columbus Circle windmills. If he officially began punching the clock the day his involvement with Icahn was announced to the press, that works out to a cool $2 million a week.
- Now it all make sense. Oprah was angry because James Frey was stealing from the children. She’s announced she will leave her multi-billion dollar fortune to starving African children someday.
- New York magazine is dead to Michael Wolff, dead! He wigs out a little on I Want Media, but it’s okay if he’s still a little raw about it. I’ve heard you need at least half as much of the time you put into a relationship to get over it, so it’s kind of understandable, really.
