REALLY!  Do you actually have to stoop this low to attempt to get a laugh?  Why is it NO ONE would use such a stupid cartoon to represent Dan Rather and Peter Jennings or any male anchors?  Its not even mildly amusing.

You missunderstand that I am attacking the media and Hollywood! This is what they will do, and people will eat it up.  It’s horrible.

Ms. Donnelly - I agree with your reply of: 9.10.09., at 12:28PM.  Maybe the marquee/caption, should have therefore included, "Sponsored by Hollywood and the MSM.

Sorry if I misunderstood, but to tell the truth, a cartoon doesn’t usually have to be explained to me.  I think I’m just weary (and probably a little over sensitive) of the pressure and unfair expectations put on women in the media.  Can you imagine any judgments put on the clothing or hair, etc. of a male anchor?  Unheard of.  Walter was wonderful, but if he had to be judged by the same standards and expectations put on women he wouldn’t have been the anchor of a news show.

Agree that the poster above missed the clever satire.  Also flipped thru Donnelly’s gallery —  all timely and very funny, with a welcome twist towards women’s sensibilities.  My first time on this site but I’ll visit again!

                                SNEAKY PEEKY by ANTHONY LEAKY

Normally I don’t review a film like this because I tend to cover only the most esoteric foreign entities, but I feel I must warn my followers about this one. It is, as you have probably heard, a documentary featuring America’s media darlings, Katie and Diane––don’t even have to use last names––everybody knows them even though they may not watch them on a regular basis. I mean, really, who hasn’t watched Katie interviewing Sarah Palin with the "I don’t mean to belabor the point, but…" and who hasn’t see Diane doing her thing with whats-his-name from that country in the Middle East somewhere. NOW someone is pitting these two against one another and nothing could be further from the truth. You would think this country doesn’t have enough crap to deal with than make up stories about cat fights that don’t exist. But that seems to be  de rigueur nowadays-lots of phantom phony baloney floating around. Ah, but I digress; back to the film which I wouldn’t recommend to one of Keith Olberman’s "Worse Person in the World" kind of guy. What we see are two accomplished women, each doing their jobs, a peek into their private lives: a envious weekend romp on Martha’s Vineyard with Diane and Mike; Katie surf boarding on some lake somewhere; Diane having her hair done in a New York salon where her hairdresser, name of Lorenzo, sings an aria while fixing her hair; stuff like that.  Both women have cats, quite a few in fact and once argued over whose pussies were prettier. That’s it, folks! No drama, no kidding. Sadly there is no antidote against bullcocky––was there ever?

Not bad, Liza - But more worthy of Celebrity Death Match or Vince McMahon’s World Wrestling Entertainment than for a movie.  :)
