    Everything you need to know about those esteemed writers who hand out the Golden Globes ... including the Russian body builder: http://www.vox.com/2016/1/10/10741076/golden-globes-2016-hfpa-explained
  2. Actually, I read it critically, rather than getting on my knees and swallowing the conservative dribble. Take Laura Meckler’s infamous recent article on socialist Bernie Sanders. It was provocatively titled “Price Tag of Bernie Sanders’s Proposals: $18 Trillion.” She based her story on research by economist Gerald Friedman, at UMass. And she omitted his study's very different conclusions. Professor Friedman saw the piece, was rebuffed by the paper in his efforts to get a correction and responded in the Huffington Post with “An Open Letter to the Wall Street Journal on Its Bernie Sanders Hit Piece," demolishing her story. Grab your lorgnette and look it up. Isn't straight-down-middle journalism a wonderful thing? Especially at Rupert's WSJ.
  3. I don't read it? True. I just look at it. Reading it is too painful.

    “For any of you who don’t know, the Golden Globes are just like the Oscars, but without all that esteem. The Golden Globes are to the Oscars what Kim Kardashian is to Kate Middleton. A bit louder, a bit trashier, a bit drunker, and more easily bought. Allegedly. Nothing’s been proved.” -- Ricky Gervais
  5. The editorial page is slightly right of center only if you think the center is over on the right (which is a Miniverian thing to do). As for straight-down-the-middle reporting in Rupertville: Hahahahahaha!
  6. Whereas the WSJ cultural coverage is written while gazing through a lorgnette.

    Yes, you can blame the silly Hollywood foreign press, which looked at the roster of heavyweight producers and said, "Cool! Comedy/musical it is!" Nobody held a gun to their head. They're just silly.

    The real reason they did that: The Globes are a star-f*cking joke. Always have been, always will be. The show is good now because the hosts know that. Go, Ricky Gervais!

    And certainly worth a Best Comedy/Musical nod from the august Golden Globes.
  10. "That's what I have the WSJ and the NYTimes for." Yes, thank goodness Rupert Murdoch came along to save the WSJ and give it a rightward tilt. Damn librul media!
  11. Headlines like this one are funny: Mark Salling's Friend Shocked by His Child Pornography Arrest As opposed to what? "Stalling's friend: That figures." http://www.people.com/article/mark-salling-friends-shocked-child-pornography-arrest
  12. Love is not a feeling. It's a behaviour, a way of being. Love is something you do.
  13. Points have a monetary value. Unilaterally lowering their worth, independently or in a merger, is illegal. (Fraud, theft, etc.) Sounds like a potentially lucrative class-action lawsuit material for a clever law firm.
  14. Oh boy. Mega merger. Less competition. Highr prices. Sort of negates frequent-stay points.
  15. Easy answer: Dane Scott. http://rentmen.com/DaneScottUSA
  16. ...inevitably age well. http://www.daz3d.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/960x1248/17f82f742ffe127f42dca9de82fb58b1/m/a/mainmale.jpg
  17. Maybe this is what is meant by "go fuck yourself".
  18. The haircut works better without the baby fat and with the lean muscle. Hope twitternoticed.
  19. "The haircut" was just like what happened when Mia Farrow did it in "Peyton Place." A shocked nation dropped it's jaw.
