Facing a likeability and gender gap, the presumptive nominee and presumptive nominee’s spouse talked about their money, motherhood and Saturday Night Live. Feel better informed, America?
The original lead reporter and head interrogator for 60 Minutes, Wallace, with his hawklike attentiveness and softly disarming questions, knew how to make good journalism into good TV.
It made perfect sense for Keith Olbermann to go on Late Show with David Letterman to post-mortem his departure from Current TV. Two talented broadcasters, two very strong-willed guys, two guys who have a history of, shall we say, friction with their employers. So whatever Letterman thinks of how things went down with Olbermann and [...]
Taking advantage of the tune-in audience for the season premiere of Game of Thrones, and the built-in overlap between fans of fantasy epics and cable news, HBO previewed a trailer for its Aaron Sorkin drama The Newsroom last night.
Once Keith Olbermann worked for MSNBC. Then he left amid a feud with his bosses. Then he signed up to remake Current TV’s news operation. Then he got embroiled in a feud with his bosses (despite ostensibly being one of them). Now, eight months and change later, late on a Friday afternoon Current announced that [...]
Is The Daily Show quite so delightful and satirically on-point when it’s making fun of an organization you belong to? Hell, yes.

In a recent debate, Romney alluded to the wisdom of Seinfeld’s George Costanza. But [...]
Right about a year ago, journalists and people who obsess about journalism were talking about the New York Times‘ online paywall, its rules, its porousness, its ethics and its chances for success. We’re almost a year into the wall’s existence and it’s still there. The New York Times is still there. It has, it says, [...]
The network sends a crew to Wasilla and gets Sarah Palin, Fox News analyst, to answer some questions as Sarah Palin, potential future GOP candidate.
Ready for a weeklong (at least) orgy of speculation about a new candidate or a brokered convention, TV’s political-analysis teams instead ended up covering an ordinary election night.
