The sudden, mysterious death of Michael Jackson caused a near-total eclipse of the real news. The cable-news channels blurred into 24-7 wailing walls for the so-called "King of Pop." Television ratings surged with a big ka-ching. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/brentbozell/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20090626/cm_uc_crbbox/op_2310466 uc/20090626/op_2310466 Brent Bozell III opinion Fri, 26 Jun 2009 07:00:00 GMT Brent Bozell III - Twisted Hollywood and its twisted parade of tastemakers known as television critics are forever in search of another "black comedy," and if audiences don't embrace one, then they can always make another one. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/brentbozell/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20090624/cm_uc_crbbox/op_2310414 uc/20090624/op_2310414 Brent Bozell III opinion Wed, 24 Jun 2009 07:00:00 GMT Brent Bozell III - The Public Broadcasting Service recently announced it will not allow new religious programming on their taxpayer-subsidized airwaves.

It is part of the very fabric. One sensation at a recent Apple conference for new and developing applications in San Francisco was the "iPorn bikini girls" advertising free X-rated films for your iPhone. It sounds like a whole new reason to fear people using their mobile phones while they drive. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/brentbozell/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20090617/cm_uc_crbbox/op_2310344 uc/20090617/op_2310344 Brent Bozell III opinion Wed, 17 Jun 2009 07:00:00 GMT Brent Bozell III - A calm Sunday breakfast might have been ruined after a glance at The Washington Post's front page on June 14. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/brentbozell/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20090612/cm_uc_crbbox/op_2310309 uc/20090612/op_2310309 Brent Bozell III opinion Fri, 12 Jun 2009 07:00:00 GMT Brent Bozell III - The Senate Commerce Committee plans to hold confirmation hearings on June 16 for Julius Genachowski, President Obama's nominee to head the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). He is not a controversial figure, in part because he seems like a blank slate. His positions on many regulatory issues are yet to be revealed. But passionate advocates will want answers dragged out of him. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/brentbozell/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20090610/cm_uc_crbbox/op_2310279 uc/20090610/op_2310279 Brent Bozell III opinion Wed, 10 Jun 2009 07:00:00 GMT Brent Bozell III - The Obama administration's arguably unconstitutional and potentially illegal makeover/takeover of General Motors and Chrysler hit a legal road block on June 8, when Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg issued a stay preventing Team Obama's plan to sell Chrysler to the Italian automaker Fiat. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/brentbozell/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20090605/cm_uc_crbbox/op_2310231 uc/20090605/op_2310231 Brent Bozell III opinion Fri, 05 Jun 2009 07:00:00 GMT Brent Bozell III - MTV really knows how to stage the stunts that generate big publicity for their major events.
