Newsroom Season 2 Teases Presidential Scandal
11 June 2013 9:29 AM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »
Ready to re-examine the 2012 presidential election? Aaron Sorkin’s The Newsroom has got you covered. Today’s season 2 trailer teases some serious scandal.
In the HBO show’s second video promoting season 2, scandal is the word, with a capital “S”. When the show returns to on July 14th the drama, will unfold as our favorite network cable news station follows 2012′s presidential election.
It seems our hero anchor, Will McAvoy, acted by Jeff Daniels will find himself in hot water during season two, when network executives frown for his comment suggesting that the Tea Party may as well be the American Taliban. Woops. We see actor Sam Waterston warning Will of the consequences of his colorful quip. Jane Fonda’s Acn CEO character Leona Lansing is not a happy camper.
Sloan Sabbith, acted by Olivia Munn will have troubles of her own. Supposed naked pictures of her surface and are »

Mitt Romney Wishes That Hurricane Sandy Had Never Happened… To Him
7 June 2013 5:34 AM, PDT | Mediaite - TV | See recent Mediaite - TV news »
Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney (R-Winterfell) not only lost the 2012 presidential election, he lost the state of New Jersey by seventeen points, and New York by twenty-six. Ever the good sport, though, Gov. Romney made it clear, in an interview with CNN's Gloria Borger, that there are no hard feelings, and that he even wishes that deadly Hurricane Sandy had never happened... to him. »

'Arrested Development': Mitchell Hurwitz on the movie -- and the Romney joke you never saw
5 June 2013 1:33 PM, PDT | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »
Now that America has had time to absorb the new season of Arrested Development (and catch up on some sleep), series creator/executive producer Mitchell Hurwitz (him?) spoke to reporters on a conference call today about the 15 episodes released on Netflix, the future of the franchise, and more. The highlights:
• Hurwitz said that a variety of mediums could have been — and can be used — for continuing the saga of the Bluths: “Give us the canvas and let’s see what we come up with. If it were a movie canvas, we would absolutely tailor to that, but the life of »

Arrested Development Boss on Mixed Reviews, a Feature Film and the Lost George Clooney Cameo
5 June 2013 9:36 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »
It’s been nearly two weeks since Netflix’s high profile relaunch of Arrested Development, and the reaction has been… polarizing. For his part, series creator Mitch Hurtwitz is taking the mixed reviews in relative stride.
“I try to have a pretty open attitude about it,” he said Wednesday during a conference call with reporters. “Everybody wants to be loved all the time, [but] it’s not realistic. It’s certainly not realistic if you’re going to be ambitious in terms of changing the form. There are risks either way. Had I done the exact same show I did last »

Fox News Mole Resurfaces
3 June 2013 8:03 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
New York (AP) — Joe Muto has dealt with losing his job, losing his reputation and losing friends. The low point for the former Fox News Channel "mole" came three weeks ago, when he needed to be escorted from a holding cell in handcuffs to use the bathroom.
The ex-producer at Fox is still dealing with his spectacular flameout of April 2012. Muto, who worked on Bill O'Reilly's prime-time show, began writing an anonymous column for the Gawker website about what it was like for a liberal to work at Fox. His bosses blew his cover and fired him within 24 hours.
Muto did get a book deal out of the experience, though, and "An Atheist in the Foxhole" (Dutton) is being released Tuesday.
He also got a criminal record. In an agreement with the Manhattan district attorney, Muto pleaded guilty May 9 to two misdemeanors — attempted unlawful duplication of computer material and »

Jerry Saltz on Jeff Koons’s Concurrent Shows
26 May 2013 10:00 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Pretend Jeff Koons is an artist. Not a happy hotshot in a suit, serving as crystal meth to big-game-buying megacollectors and auction houses. Pretend he’s not a self-styled weird Mitt Romney–like family man, a hollowed-out Howdy Doody. Imagine that he isn’t so easy to bash that even comatose critics like John Yau lose it when they see his art, trashing Koons’s flowered Puppy and then admitting to never having seen it. (Yau once beat me up in print for liking it, too.) Finally, pretend that Koons’s concurrent gigantic shows—one at the Battlestar Gagosian on West 24th Street, the other in the West 19th Street branches of the David Zwirner empire—were in less turbocharged environments, and that they constituted any other double show by a 58-year-old artist. One who’s made some of the most vexingly paradoxical sculpture of the past 30 years, work »

Jason Sudeikis says he's still not sure whether he's done with SNL or not
24 May 2013 8:30 AM, PDT | avclub.com | See recent The AV Club news »
Prompting Mitt Romney to angrily shout, “Make a decision already!,” Jason Sudeikis says he’s still not sure whether or not he’ll be back at Saturday Night Live this fall. Yesterday on The View, Sudeikis told Barbara Walters that he “sincerely [doesn’t] know at this point” whether he’ll be “working there in the fall.” Maybe he’s waiting to see how We’re The Millers does at the box office? In kind of a sweet note, Sudeikis said that he really believes that SNL cast members “never leave the show,” despite what the recent wake-like send-offs for »
On the scene at the 2013 Webby Awards: What you didn't see at home
22 May 2013 7:13 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
The Webby Awards aren’t the world’s shortest award ceremony — including a dinner break, the ceremony takes the standard three hours — but they feel like it. Part of that is the famous five-word limit on acceptance speeches (like Humans of New York’s Brandon Stanton: “Still can’t pay my rent”); part of it is just how fast everyone moves. At last night’s 17th annual ceremony, host Patton Oswalt was a speedy presence, which is why (I assume) he felt the need to jokingly remind us that, no really, he’s out of shape.

Aclu to 'Modern Family': Let Cam and Mitch Tie the Knot
18 May 2013 2:19 PM, PDT | Indiewire Television | See recent Indiewire Television news »
Americans love Cam and Mitch, from Barack and Michelle Obama to Anne and Mitt Romney. The two men aren't just the funniest duo on ABC's hit sitcom "Modern Family," they're easily the most visible fictional gay couple in the U.S--and perhaps the nation's most visible gay couple, period. Along with their adoptive daughter, Cam and Mitch are funny, engaging and relatable: the perfect manifestation of the show's title. One thing they aren't, however, is married. That's something the American Civil Liberties Union--one of the oldest and most influential civil rights groups in the country--thinks it's time to change. "America wants to see Cam & Mitch get hitched on Modern Family," a new action page on the Aclu's website reads, inviting visitors to sign up and 'RSVP' to the couple's wedding. (Or rather, to their wedding episode.) The Aclu plans to deliver the guest list to the show's producers. This isn't »

Report: Fred Armisen to leave 'Saturday Night Live'; Jason Sudeikis 'probably' out as well
16 May 2013 7:46 AM, PDT | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »
Looks like the 2013-2014 television season will be a rebuilding year for SNL.
An unnamed source at NBC has confirmed to the New York Post that longtime castmember Fred Armisen has decided to exit the sketch show after 11 seasons. That same source tells the Post that SNL veteran Jason Sudeikis will “probably” leave the show as well this year. NBC had no comment, and reps for Armisen and Sudeikis didn’t immediately respond to EW’s inquiries.
It would hardly be a shock if these exit rumors turn out to be true. While Armisen was once a dominant presence on Saturday Night Live, »

Dean Cain On Gay Marriage: 'For Me, It's A Non-Issue'
15 May 2013 10:37 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a same-sex marriage supporter!
Actor Dean Cain, who is best known for playing the "Man of Steel" on "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman," spoke out in defense of marriage equality during a HuffPost Live appearance.
“If anybody wants to get married, go ahead," the 46-year-old actor, who will next be seen in the VH1 series "Hit The Floor," said. On a more serious note, he added, "I have a lot of gay friends ... I can't understand why it's an issue. For me, it's a non-issue."
Cain, who played a gay character opposite Zach Braff and Andrew Keegan in 2000's "The Broken Hearts Club: A Romantic Comedy," is a registered Republican who reportedly backed Rick Perry and eventually Mitt Romney in the 2012 U.S. presidential election.

Geraldo On ‘Major Deception’ In Benghazi: Was Mitt Romney Told By CIA’s David Petraeus To Back Off?
10 May 2013 5:53 AM, PDT | Mediaite - TV | See recent Mediaite - TV news »
On Friday’s Fox & Friends, Geraldo Rivera dove into the news that the intelligence community’s assessment of the reasons behind the attack on an American consulate in Benghazi was “scrubbed” of references to Islamic terrorism. Rivera said that, while he did not believe this was an impeachable offense, he was sure this “major deception” was likely to hinder former Sec. of State Hillary Clinton’s presidential aspirations. Rivera added that former Gop presidential nominee Mitt Romney may have been told to back off claims of a cover-up in Benghazi for national security reasons by Former CIA Director David Patraeus. »

Al Gore is now Romney-rich after earning $200 million in recent years
7 May 2013 12:02 AM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
It looks like Mitt Romney isn't the only super-rich former politician out there. According to reports, former Vice President Al Gore has almost as much money following a series of business deals in the past few years.
So how did Gore get so Romney-rich?
According to an in-depth report on Gore's finances published by Bloomberg, most of the politician's fortune has come recently from the sale of the Current TV network and from shares in Apple stock. Reports indicate that Gore grossed about $70 million for his share in Current TV when it was sold to al-Jazeera in January 2013.
Since there are plenty of wealthy politicians out there, what makes Gore's wealth so notable? One reason is the proximity of this wealth disclosure to the 2012 Presidential elections. Throughout the campaign, detractors called Republican candidate Mitt Romney out-of-touch due to his vast wealth. Now that Gore has a similar sum -- an »

Jim (John Gallagher, Jr.) will be following the Mitt Romney campaign, as Neil (Dev Patel) focuses on the burgeoning Occupy movement and Maggie (Alison Pill) is engulfed by crises.
