TV Buzz The Family Guy spinoff — now set to start next fall — will inexplicably feature the voice of Arianna Huffington as a bear. Like The Office spinoff, I kind of think this is still just an elaborate programming joke.
Politics Buzz Arianna Huffington terms the phrase “Born Again American” for the newfound patriotism that has been inspired by the Obama Presidential win. There were definitely times during the Bush era when I felt disappointed in my country, ashamed and embarrassed even. But the fact we were able to put someone respectable in office has really restored my faith.
Tech Buzz The Huffington Post launches the first local version of its site. We hope at some point the big sites go hyper local, neighborhood-level. Chinatown needs its own HuffPo, too.
TV Buzz Scuttlebutt that Tim Russert has had Arianna Huffington blacklisted from NBC over comments about him in her new book. There are several passages in Right is Wrong about Russert, calling him (among other things) “one of the temple guards of conventional wisdom” and a “conventional wisdom zombie.” Huffington was reportedly un-booked from two NBC shows, but she’s talking everywhere else about the tome. We love a good media scandal. Also, we just wanted to use the word scuttlebutt.
Politics Buzz Arianna Huffington’s new book exposes the “Lunatic Fringe” of the Republican Party. What happens when the right wing’s “Lunatic Fringe” takes control of the government? Find out in Arianna Huffington’s new book, “Right Is Wrong: How the Lunatic Fringe Hijacked America, Shredded the Constitution, and Made Us All Less Safe.” It makes the whole Obama Vs. Clinton fight look silly when the alternative is four more years of the lunatic fringe in power.
