    "Richard Desmond has flew to NYC to meet with Kent. Since he started OK had missed it base rate everyweek."


    Okay, so far, I guess this an OK! writer.


    "He hates coming to NYC and only comes when there is a problem."


    Hah! Usually it's the other way around!!!


    "Kent has just canceled the holiday party and instead they are going to johnny utah with a cash bar."


    Yeah but they have a mechanical bull there! If you can't afford drinks, no sweat - everyone does that shit sober.

    All foreigners who own mags, newspapers or TV stations in America must have their properties taken from them NOW. Most especially, the Brits should be shown the goddamn door already. They come from an island smaller than our east coast and think they know what America is about? We're in a big ass Depression. Time for the Limeys to preach their crap to their fellow limeys. Silly twats.


    But Rupe should still own the Post. No one else will, and I have friends there.

    @Aaron Altman: The flag of piracy, maybe. Please. It's like having one of our states send moron writers to NYC under the idea that newspaper readers need to know "The Utah Perspective." There is no reason to keep having Brit dipshits blather on our airwaves or in our newspapers. They bring nothing to the table, just their sadness at being a total failure and warnings that we'll be the same. And we might, but we already know that. Do we need to pay some dickface Brit to condescend to us? Better that we hire some fucking blabberers from China than England. They just get off on us having trouble, they have nothing instructive to say.

    @ian spiegelman:

    The first time I ever spoke to a certain (British?) EIC of a certain NYC newspaper, he was pleasant enough, and nice, and polite, but I remember thinking in the back of my head, "Who the heck are YOU to be running one of MY hometown newspapers?"


    He really was pleasant, nice and polite though. :-)

    The problem with Entertainment Magazines is that it takes 5 minutes to look at the pictures and read the articles. Back in the day when People was entertainment monopoly, they at least tries to write 2-3 pages on a celebrity and offer inside scoop on their jobs and lives. That means you spent at least 30 minutes reading the article. Who wants to pay $4.99 for an article they can read in 60 seconds? The whole concept of magazines is to leave you ENTERTAINED or INFORMED while you have a free time or are traveling. I can't shell out $4 for a friggin magazine before an Amtrak ride when I'll be bored for the remaining 4 hours of the trip. I can just read my book the whole time or entertain myself with an iPod for 2 hours.

    @Penscribe: There isn't 2-3 minutes of material you could write about the Heidi & Spencer's of the world. And how much new info can you get when there are 5 magazines trying to accomplish the same thing on a monthly basis?

    That's nothing. The cardboard box I work out of had a flap that was partially perforated. I punched it out, and ooh boy it lets in a lot more light. I'm a little concerned about rain, though.

    Instead, how about you just pick out a nearby wall and we'll knock it down for you?

    I once saw Kent flip shit because halfway through a meeting he realized the chair he was sitting on was not "his chair". Instead of waiting until later to locate his usual chair, he threw it across the room. The guy is nuts.

    As they lay people off, there's more room. This makes perfect sense to me. Time to stretch out my legs, as I'll need them to walk out of here when my job disappears.
