Is there something deeper going on in our national psyche when our fascination with sexy, blood thirsty, teenage vampires coincides with a thirst for more Sarah?
It's official: Oprah Winfrey will end her famous talk show in 2011. The much speculated rumor was made official yesterday and will come at the end o...
Is there anyone quite like Sarah Palin online? At the moment, no -- not Michael Jackson, not Manny Pacquiao, not even President Obama, according to Google Insights for Search.
Sarah Palin blew into Grand Rapids with all the stagecraft (and subtlety) of Lady Gaga, pulling up in a bus ensconced with the cover photo from her book, down to her glossy lips and heavenward gaze.
Create an image and brand your product. So what's to come from the branding of Palin with this recently released book and all the photo opportunities that come with it?
Which is Sarah Palin? A good example or a horrible warning? The answer is both.
Opening soon: the movie made from the novel of The Road. I saw the preview and was impressed, so I picked up the book. And, to my surprise, it knocked me out.
After rogue interviews with Oprah Winfrey and Barbara Walters, Sarah took to the airwaves with a man who not only liked her book, but called it one of the most substantive policy books he's ever read!
Talk about missed opportunities. Since no real journalists are likely to get a sit-down with Sarah Palin during her book promotions blitz, it sure wo...
What makes Being Generous, by Ted Malloch, especially powerful is his description of his own journey from self-described narcissism to compassion.
Five minutes into yesterday's Oprah extravaganza with Sarah Palin, I messaged Steve Schmidt, John McCain's presidential campaign manager: "So how did you know Bristol was pregnant before it was announced?"
Sarah Palin and Carrie Prejean are two peas in a pod. Both preening for the cameras, and unwilling to answer any question that forces them to process opinions different from their own.
The most telling moment in Oprah Winfrey's interview with Sarah Palin came when Oprah asked if Sarah felt snubbed that she hadn't been invited to be on her show during the campaign.
I have not seen much evidence of Obama being in touch with small-town Kentucky, but after reading David Plouffe's new book, The Audacity to Win, I have become convinced that he knows what it takes to run a business.
I will suggest to Americans to "Just Don't Click" on Sarah Palin. Don't watch the shows. Don't tune into her on the Internet. Don't buy her book. Don't keep feeding this media blitzkrieg.
Gov. Palin said that the book caught her interest as she was promoting it on Oprah last week.
Prepare for the latest Palin media onslaught. An hour with Oprah, a multi-parter with Barbara, and appearances all across the country. An initial read shows Going Rogue doesn't reveal much. No surprise there. This isn't about the book, it's about the book tour -- which includes a politically convenient stop in Iowa -- and the money. Besides, it's not like there's much we haven't already learned about Palin since she burst onto the national scene. We even know when her water broke during her last pregnancy. Talk about overexposed. In the end, I expect this will be one of the most mocked books of the year -- and one of the biggest bestsellers. Palin fans will find much to love, but I doubt a single doubter will be converted. It's a 400 page Rorschach test. With no index.
Still-fresh memories that Oprah did what she'd never done before -- not only endorse a presidential candidate, but crusade for him -- makes the Palin-Oprah talk duet even more tantalizing.
I remember first hearing the following phrase: "Women give sex to get love. Men give love to get sex." Back then I didn't agree or disagree with this concept. I think it registered more as a curiosity. Is this true?
Let's face it. It takes a lot of guts to put your neck out and launch a startup. It takes a lot of courage to walk into a major VC firm like Lightspee...
