The Week We Were Shocked To Discover That Media Types (Occasionally) Promote/Write About Other Media Types

Every week, there are so many eventful developments that we (almost) can???t keep track of them all! So, for your convenience and ours, we???ve dispatched the indispensable Intern Whitney to remind us what about this past week made it so damned special.

• At what point did media types stop covering the stories and start becoming the stories? We’re not sure, but we’re betting Julia Allison has a couple of theories.

• The Fox Business Network launch party was the best ever! Either that, or Rupert Murdoch frightens us.

• Got a purple wig? A portable laptop? A general feeling of inadequacy and moderate paunch? Boy, has Elle Girl got the perfect Halloween costume for you!

• Overly conservative Christians and overly opinionated liberals clash swords over the outing of a nonexistent Harry Potter character.

• No amount of money will be able to restore former British prime minister Tony Blair’s legacy in the history-books. That said, a $9 million book advance certainly doesn’t hurt.

• Breaking news: MTV’s scripted reality show The Hills isn’t real.

• Sometimes, it’s good to be the founder of Facebook. Especially since even those who are paid to like MySpace kinda hate it.

• Stephen Colbert’s plan to run for president has drawn in even more voters. Unfortunately, those voters are the same people who draw the majority of their political views from “fake news” sources.

• Apparently people (other than Chris Crocker) still like Britney Spears!

Feeling low in the self-esteem department? This two-minute video will provide a quick pick-me-up! Or else just make you feel sad and joyless.

• Wow, another show about a slutty writer-slash-high class hooker. And here we thought Sex and the City’s time had passed.

• Page Six is bringing out the big guns, recruiting the hard-hitting journalists who make the world go ’round.
