I Like Watching The "Not-AOL Time One Warner York Turner Inc. New" TV Station

COMPANY THAT HAS CONSISTENTLY BEEN DISASTROUS WITH NAMING UPSET THAT ITS TV STATION NY1 DOES NOT COMMUNICATE THAT TV STATION'S EXCLUSIVITY TO DOOMED CABLE PROVIDER TIME WARNER, PLANS TO RUIN STATION BY WAY OF REBRANDING.

Also, later, HBO will be renamed Home Bewkes Office.

Damn you, M&M Store. I'm not paying $44 for $8 worth of chocolate! http://t.co/MMN1y2BmWed Sep 28 12:44:34 via bitlyPat Kiernanpatkiernan

NY1 morning hero Pat Kiernan appears to be auditioning for retiring '60 Minutes' rambler Andy Rooney's job. He's REAL MAD at the M&Ms store in Times Square. (I mean, who isn't, sure.) What's the old proverb? "Something something give a man a blog and he'll have things to rage about for life."

Working for NY1 Is Extremely Hazardous

A woman draped in a sheet climbed into an NY1 news van and allegedly attacked Vivian Lee as the veteran reporter covered a story in Cobble Hill Friday morning. The woman, who wore the white sheet over a T-shirt, sweatpants and green flip-flops, went inside the truck about 7 a.m. and began using Lee's makeup and snacking on food, Lee and a witness said. When Lee told her to leave, the woman allegedly punched the reporter in the neck.

This happens to Roger Clark like every day though. (Relatedly, the story she was covering, of the church lightning strike killing a fellow at Kane and Clinton, [...]

Are You Turning Against Pat Kiernan?

The constant politicking for a better job. The Times Thursday Styles profile. Paying the highest price ever in Williamsburg for a house (an unattractive house!) on Bedford Avenue. It's the kind of exposure that begs for backlash and, according to my inbox, NY1 hero Pat Kiernan is getting the backlash now. (Personally there's only room in my heart for one Canadian broadcaster, and that's CBC's New York correspondent David Common. Have you seen David Common? PICTURED HERE. That's not Pat Kiernan! Come to where the (maple) flavor is.) The backlash against Kiernan mostly revolves around the fact that if any of us campaigned relentlessly for months in [...]

Where Has Adele Sammarco Been?

Those of you who are not Skidmore '06 or Sarah Lawrence '07, which I realize is most of you, will remember Adele Sammarco, who once upon a time was making the blabber happen on NY1 nearly as frequently as Roma Torre. (You will particularly remember this if you spend a lot of time in NYPD detention, a mandatory NY1 viewing area.) Wherever has she been? She has been doing PR in Staten Island and preparing suit against NY1 for the sex harassment: "Sammarco says she was subjected to retaliation after complaining she was groped and forcibly kissed by another reporter and ridiculed by an altered photo depicting her with [...]
