It has been a long time, since Chris Brown assaulted, bit, and threatened to kill his then-girlfriend Rihanna. Time has passed. Both parties have tried to move past it in whatever ways they feel work best for them.
Sitting here now, I’m compelled to wonder. What has Chris Brown learned? Is there any hope, at all, [...]

BeBe Wynans, a well-known and respected gospel singer, has been dumped from the Oprah Winfrey show. Not because of anything he’s officially done, though. He’s been charged with pushing his wife. Not convicted. Not found guilty by judge or jury. Simply charged. He hasn’t even had his trial yet. But, forget about formalities, Oprah Winfrey [...]

“America’s Next Top Model”, featuring Tyra Banks pretending she has talent, is going to have contestants pose as “another race” for a photo shoot.

Barack Obama wants people to believe he’s not a yes-man to big business. He’ll tout his words. He has to tout his words, because, in the big picture, he hasn’t *DONE* much. He’s claimed much, but the legwork, planning, and execution almost entirely falls on other people.

They’ve been billing “The Fourth Kind”, a film featuring alien abduction, as a fact-based thriller type of film. Except for one problem. It isn’t anything of the sort.
