The Wrath of McKinsey: Conde Nast To Fold Gourmet, Three Others

Posted on October 5, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The results of the Conde Nast Magazine Death Pool are in, stunningly early: the company announced this morning that it’s folding Gourmet, Cookie , and two bridal magazines, Elegant Bride and Modern Bride . This, then, is the fallout from McKinsey. The company had floated the idea that its turnaround could be accomplished without any magazines going under (if you’re keeping score, Michael Musto’s rumor of five mag deaths beat Keith Kelly’s rumor of zero), but that was always impractical.

No matter how you felt about David Letterman prior to his role in a recent extortion plot , or how you feel about him now that he’s admitted to an affair with a staffer, we can all agree on one thing: The talk show host’s public admission was gripping television. Countless celebrities have been caught in sex scandals; but we can’t recall a single one that sat for 10 minutes in front of the camera and a stunned studio audience – as the host of a comedic program, no less – and divulged the details of his affair in such a manner.

Seizing "Statutory Rape" Zeitgeist, Right Hones Latest, Gayest Czar Attack

Posted on September 30, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Well look at this! We were totally right — it happens sometimes — and the right’s firing up its attack on Kevin Jennings , the nation’s gay “safe school czar.” And they’re using terms like “statutory rape.” How timely! Jennings once lived life as a closeted school teacher. And, at the time — 1988 — a student told Jennings that he had consensual sex with an “older man” in a public bathroom. Jennings told the student to use a condom and later wrote in his book, that the student “left my office with a smile on his face that I would see every time I saw him on the campus for the next two years, until he graduated.” Now, perhaps inspired by all the hoopla over Roman Polanski ‘s arrest, the right’s throwing it all back in Jennings’ face

Michael Moore tells Democrats: ‘Find your spine’ on health care

Posted on September 30, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Sans video camera, filmmaker Michael Moore on Tuesday turned his megaphone on the current health care system and those Blue Dog Democrats he claims are “dogging” the health care debate. Moore, an advocate of a single-payer, government-run health care system, called the current setup “cruel,” and said that two-thirds of Americans support a single-payer system and would punish those Democrats who steer the conversation away from that option. “To the Democrats in Congress,” Moore said, “find your spine.
