New York Magazine‘s The Cut blog heaps praise on The CW’s “Jane the Virgin” over finally showing a character having an abortion — baby gone, yay! — after not having Jane have one (which would have made for a pretty short series).

Romantic — and other... Read more

Hollywood Hypocrisy on the Degradation of Women

Last updated on: October 13, 2016 at 3:20 pm By Kate O'Hare

Back when I was a full-time entertainment journalist, I was once in a table reading for a Fox animated comedy, and a joke written into the script — not for air, just for the entertainment of the room — called Sarah Palin the c-word (you can find teeshirts from the time that say the same thing , and one comedian Tweeted it).

Recently, I went to a screening at the Warner Bros. lot of the new Warner Bros. Pictures animated film “Storks,” coming out in theaters on Friday, Sept. 23rd. It was an elaborate affair, with tons of kids, giant versions of the movie’s characters walking around, and lots of pizza, hamburgers and candy. In you’re in Los Angeles, you’d have to be blind to miss all the “Storks” billboards, bus wraps and other marketing material. “Storks” also features such big-name voice talent as Andy... Read more
