MSNBC Shakeup – Chris Hayes Will Take Ed Schultz’s Timeslot

Chris Hayes will take over the 8 p.m. time slot on MSNBC in the next month, the channel is expected to announce on Thursday morning, the day after the current host of that hour, Ed Schultz, said he was moving from the weekdays to the weekends.

Mr. Hayes, a liberal intellectual who has hosted a well-regarded weekend morning program on MSNBC for the past 18 months, is a protégé of Rachel Maddow, the highest-rated host on the channel. He will become the lead-in for her 9 p.m. program, “The Rachel Maddow Show.”

The change is predicated on the belief that MSNBC can win a wider audience with Mr. Hayes than it did with Mr. Schultz, a champion of the working class whose bluster didn’t always pair well with Ms. Maddow and the channel’s other prime-time program, “The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell.” Mr. Hayes, on the other hand, is just as wonky as Ms. Maddow and Mr. O’Donnell, and is a regular contributor to both of their programs.

Judge Judy Sued? Irony?

Is it ironic that Judge Judy is actually being sued?? 

Probably not, but it does make for a good twist.

It seems Judge Judy Sheidlin is actually caught up in quite the domestic issue here. Apparently, a Judge Judy Show producer, Randy Douthit, gave the judge a steal on some Christofle chinaware. This china must be quite the tableware as it is claimed to be worth over a whopping $500,000. You must be able to see right through yourself when looking at this china.

Randy Douthit’s ex-wife, Patric Jones, is alleging that Judge Judy received the china from Douthit for an exchange of only $50,000 without her knowledge or consent of the trade. And as you’ve probably figured out by now, the divorce was clearly a bitter one since Jones is looking to reclaim what she believes is rightfully hers and hers alone.

To add more to the twist, Patric Jones is also claiming that Douthit agreed to decrease his salary upkeep on the show in order to get a better deal in the divorce settlement. So, even though the divorce has been settled, the war is still brewing.

Judge Judy is of course denying these claims and she’s also denying that this lawsuit even exists,

I have not seen any complaint by the former Mrs. Douthit, however, I don’t owe this lady a cent. And if this 50-year-old woman would spend her time more productively at trying to find a job, instead of abusing the judicial system with frivolous lawsuits, we would all be a lot better off.

Ah, Judge Judy, even outside the courts you still have your sass.

I must say it would be quite interesting to see Judge Judy Sheindlin on the other side of the bench and maybe even get just a little taste of her own medicine.

Unopened Taylor Swift Fan Mails Found In Trash

Ah fans. Your poor little hearts would shed a tear hearing this news. Maybe one of your many mails found its way to Taylor Swift’s trash bin, never opened. And you thought you had made a real celebrity connection. So sad.

The letters, many of which were unopened, were found in a south Nashville recycling bin at the weekend by Kylee Francescan when she was disposing of her own rubbish.

She told Nashville’s News 2: ‘I was like, ‘That’s weird. There were like hundreds of letters in there to Taylor Swift and I’m like, “Oh my gosh!”

‘I didn’t know if they were stolen [or] discarded, so I threw them in a box. And I’m like, “Somebody needs to let Taylor know.”‘

Many of the letters, which came from around the globe, were handmade cards covered with pictures, hearts and sparkles.
Francescan said she did not open any of the letters, and decided to contact the media because she believes the singer needed to find out about the discarded letters.

She added: ‘It did bother me [because] I know how much her fans mean to her.’
They were addressed to Taylor Swift Entertainment, a post office located at a shopping centre at 242 West Main Street in Hendersonville.

The owner of the mall told Nashville’s News 2 Investigates she does receive box loads of fan mail at the post office box, and that a member of her staff picks up mail periodically.Nashville’s News 2 took the fanmail to her record label, Big Machine Records on Music Row.

A worker at the company said he was unsure why the letters were in the dumpster

A Coupla White Men Sitting Around Voting


Have you ever wondered who elects the Oscar winners? The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has about 6000 members. 94% of them are white. 77% of them are male. 86% of them are over 50. So don’t think of it as Best Picture. Think of it as What an Old White Man thinks is Best Picture. An Old White Man’s Idea of Best Actor. An Old White Man’s Idea of Best Cinematographer. And so on.

Don’t get me wrong. A lot of old white men are wonderful people. It’s just that they’re the minority now. They’re certainly the minority as far as gender is concerned. And soon they will be the minority as far as race is concerned.

So why are they still running things (well the government and the Fortune 500 anyway)?
Silly, because people who have power don’t give it up voluntarily. Why does it matter? Because the movies have such a powerful impact on our culture. And if only one group gets to decide what is the best , where does that leave the rest of us?

It’s no accident that most of the nominees and winners are white men. Members of a tribe like their own tribe the best. They help them first. It’s human nature. Human nature it may be, but healthy for the culture it is not. Ang Lee aside, where were the nonmale, nonwhite nominees that weren’t either best actress or best supporting actress nominees? A tiny percentage? Who does that benefit?

And whose idea was it to have Seth McFarlane host? His shows, Family Guy, American Dad and his movie Ted are insanely popular among you guessed it, white men. Young white men. Time to attract some new blood to the tribe. So we get hilarious jokes about how Jennifer Anniston was a stripper (she wasn’t) about how actresses throw up to lose weight, a CIA agent was just a nag, and 9 year old will be dating George Clooney soon.
And a delightful song that reduced women at the top of their profession to a crudely referenced body part. Come to the Oscars and be humiliated.

Are they really this tone deaf? Well– there he was so, yes, they are. Lately I have been watching the Oscars just for the pretty dresses. Some of the most beautiful women in the world with a team of experts working on them and the result is they look absolutely stunning. Hey do you think it’s a coincidence that the Best Actress award usually goes to someone who’s young and beautiful? ‘Cause that’s what old men like. Just wondering.

It’s 2013. The days when old white men decide for all of us what has value and what does not are fading. At least I hope so. I can’t think of a good reason to watch the Oscars now.

I can catch the dresses the next day on dozens of websites.

Eddie Murphy Will Reunite With Judge Reinhold On New Beverly Hills Cop TV Show

Eddie Murphy and Judge Reinhold will be reuniting as Axel Foley and Billy Rosewood in the pilot for the possible CBS series “Beverly Hills Cop.”

According to a report on The Wrap, Reinhold has signed on to do a cameo in the pilot alongside his old big-screen partner Murphy, who is also an executive producer on the series. But don’t expect the series to be all about these two ’80s action movie icons. The series, written by “The Shield’s” Sean Ryan, is a continuation of the three movies but will focus on Foley’s son, played by Brandon T. Jackson.

According to the report, Reinhold’s by-the-book character, who was a detective in the first two films and then a “Deputy Director of Operations for Joint Systems Interdepartmental Operational Command” in the third film, will get a promotion for the series. Chief of police?

Murphy’s on-screen role in the series will also be minimal, and he’ll cameo in the pilot as well.

Reinhold is one of the only actors to appear in all three “Beverly Hills Cop” movies, besides Murphy and Gil Hill, who played Foley’s Detroit police boss, Inspector Todd.
