...just as assuredly as questions about the federal government’s responsiveness. Question funding cuts to the Army Corps of Engineers in a period of unrestrained pork barrel spending. Ask why FEMA head Michael Brown seemed to know less about the unfolding disaster than the average viewer of Fox News or CNN. But, please, spare the outlandish rhetoric, demagoguery, unsubstantiated speculation, and race-based bile. It is true that the Louisiana National Guard does have troops in Iraq, but the Mississippi National Guard has an even larger percentage of its forces overseas, and looting was virtually non-existent...
Women under 50 generally don't lust after leading men with canes--and neither do television network executives. But British actor Hugh Laurie is about to start his second season upending such TV truisms as an infectious-diseases specialist--whose cleverness is matched only by his astonishing rudeness--on Fox's hit medical drama House, the No. 9 prime-time show among women this year.

Now 20th Century Fox has had the good sense to strip out the filler and serve up the mythology with no chaser. These two themed collections unspool ongoing plot threads from Seasons 1 through 5. If you don't know what "black oil"--a nefarious goo that may be an alien life form...
...recapture the success of its bull-market heyday. Ad revenues last year were just $140 million, vs. $383 million in 2001, reports Kagan Research. Overall ratings remain depressed, even though onetime rival CNNfn went dark last year. And a new financial channel is expected at Fox next spring, so there is a sense of urgency in the place. CNBC, a division of GE's NBC Universal, has tried everything to reinvent itself, including going Hollywood. That failed experiment led to the cancellation of prime-time shows with hosts Dennis Miller, John McEnroe and Tina Brown. The network lost...
