Fox Sports cuts web writing staff

You know what I would do?

Commit to information, content and quality journalism.

Cray-cray, I know.

But I would keep things short.

 

Apparently a show is being developed for her.

Until then, she argues with people on Twitter.

 

This is Fox we are talking about.

 

According to Deitsch, there are no plans to change the current strategy.

Don't expect Fox Sports to quiet down post-Horowitz firing

 

I do know. She has so much talent that no one can find the right vehicle to showcase it. But soon. Soon.

 

Wait. Are you and Rick Reilly the only two guys on earth who don't like Katie Nolan?

 

He likes her tits.

 

Link?

 

I like(d) her show, but it borders on the usual "I will pick easy targets like a dutiful liberal scold until it involves a celebrity I like, upon which I'll discover complexity of human interaction and potentially lecture on the nature of comedy."

This is hardly specific to Nolan. I'd give her a Samantha Bee/John Oliver half-hour show tomorrow. (Not sure it's needed every night. Twice a week, Mondays and Thursdays, seems better to me. I wouldn't want Oliver every night.) But so few comedians/talk show hosts can escape that liberal tension of "I'm gonna wantonly skewer over here but protect over here. Fallon, who I don't like, doesn't even bother trying, he treats everyone like a puppy, and then he plays a game. Louis CK, at least for me, manages to do so by being so remarkably misanthropic that he functions like Bill Hicks once did.

Jon Stewart, to his credit, made a magnificent personal career out of exploiting that tension.

 

I thought he hated them.

Or, hated her for having them.

Or something.

 

I thought he just liked parades.

 

Did you not like her work on Big Metal Bird?
