February 12, 2013. Not every blog needs to be a book. 8212; Jenne @ 10:31 am. Are You There, Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea. By Chelsea Handler. I think the two books lined up after that will also be entertaining. Two of the books I found disappointing had started as blogs, or were written by bloggers. This reminded me of two problems I’ve noticed with books based on blogs. One is a marketing problem, the other is a content problem. Not every blog needs to be a book. Pocket Full of Words.

A former CNN employee went to the mat defending Crowley and Harlow in this FB exchange with Mike Daisey. 6 Harlo...

March 21, 2013. Fixed it for you, CNN. 8212; Jenne @ 10:24 pm. So, CNN, since you have apparently had a lot of trouble realizing that what you did on Sunday sympathized with the rapists, I thought maybe I could edit your script and show you how you could have reported the conviction of two rapists without implying that their sentencing was a tragedy. (Just in case you need to see the video again, here it is: It is worse than you remember. But, first, a breaking story we’re following. We want to go now to...
