It's been hard to keep this one under wraps but I'm about to embark on an exciting new chapter in my career and wanted to share it with my HuffPost family first and foremost before our official announcement tomorrow.

Truly honored to be entrusted with this amazing opportunity.

I just...

I have been told, by people who are in the know, that there's this phenomenon out there called "social media." Seriously, it's a thing. Look it up. And I'm not talking about where you go to a movie theater and there are some black folk who yell back at the...

While people of the Jewish faith were recently bringing in the New Year for Rosh Hashanah and reflecting inwards during Yom Kippur, I came across a couple of bizarre news stories. The first item was about a University of Tennessee student who wound up in the emergency room after allegedly...

I know, I know, it's been a while. I've been traveling, I've been working and you've been cheating on me reading those other blogs. It's okay, I don't hate you as much as I hate myself for not writing.

So yes, I shot a movie in Bulgaria called

1. Vacation at Chernobyl. WTF is "Extreme Tourism"? If we need to book a trip we go here.
2. Adopt a kid who turns out to be the devil.
3. Pay for tickets to a Hockey Game.
4. Get stranded hiking up Mt....

Earlier this week, I introduced you to Tony Gore, the independent candidate for whom I will be voting in the 2012 presidential election. He's not in the pocket of Corporate America. He's not beholden to special interests. He's a man of the people and most importantly...

Like a bad case of herpes, the nasty political season rages on. Antiviral medicine like Valtrex is typically recommended for treating outbreaks, but that was before Super PACs made the infection even more powerful. Political attacks ads have significantly increased the contagion risk of name calling and it is clear...

Linsanity is sweeping the nation and everyone seems to have an opinion about Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin. They're comparing him to a lot of people.

Well, here's some people we should not compare him to:

1. Plaxico Burress -- Because when Lin shoots in New York...

On Saturday afternoon a text appeared on my cell phone that read, "Whitney Houston died. Wtf?" I assumed it was some stupid rumor. After the recent tragic death of the legendary Don Cornelius the Twitterverse had declared Eddie Murphy to be pushing up daisies. That prompted me to tweet RIP...

1. The title Red Tails misled viewers to believe it was a movie about strippers.
2. Tyler Perry's Madea was one of the pilots. Wait, she wasn't? Yes she was.
3. The power of Martin Luther King Jr. compels you.
4. It's the first all-Black action movie ever made, but it...

If you missed Wednesday night's Dot Comedy show in Hollywood, here's a quote from an audience member:

"I got to witness the self-destruction of a famous comedian. Little piece of history right there."

The world-famous Laugh Factory is the home of Dot Comedy. The show...

"I want to report a rape," said Kim Novak, the legendary star of Vertigo, Picnic, and other revered classics. "My body of work has been violated by The Artist."

I love Kim Novak for having the guts to say this. When you get high your ideas...

2011 was a huge year for comedy. That statement is only true if you focus on the exception, Louis C.K. and not the rule, Ricky Gervais. Mister Gervais showed up to host the Golden Globes armed with real live jokes. "Our next presenter is from such...

The end of the year is often a time we use to reflect and tally our successes and failures. Most of us do this late at night on bended knee with our head in a toilet after having drunk way too much on New Year's Eve. Hangover time is a...

Being a racist used to mean something. Now you're a racist if you support Newt Gingrich. At least that's what Glenn Beck says.

It seems like many things are considered racist today. If someone doesn't like your shirt, you're a racist. If they don't like your dog, you're a...
