Wherein we bring you back to the halcyon past of 24 hours ago and augment a few of yesterday's stories:

• Word is that the 126 Rivington kids don't have a TV deal yet. "The WB is courting them pretty heavily," reports an emailer who claims to know what he's talking about, "but so is HBO and the production company that put on Laguna Beach. Something should be worked out by week's end, I think, but it's not finalized yet."

• New Mediabistro editorial director Dorian Benkoil might have an even shorter tenure at the house of boas than we expected: Suggestion from a variety of tipsters — including some we actually know and trust — is that his departure wasn't exactly voluntary at either of his last jobs. Indeed, at Fairchild Publications, we're told, his tenure was only a few months, and his fate was sealed after a management retreat in Nantucket, at which he managed to insult nearly all the participants, including Fairchild CEO Mary Berner.
