• The epic mess at NBC continues: The last-place network is now thinking above moving Jay Leno to a 11:35pm-12:05am time slot and then having Conan O'Brien follow him for a full hour. But no deal has been reached, and there's still a possibility that Conan will abandon ship. [NYT, LAT, BN, NYT]
• Rudy Giuliani is under fire for idiotic comments he made on Good Morning America today. George Stephanopoulos: He isn't looking so hot either. [NYT]
• Changes at the Times: Star reporter Sewell Chan is headed to the paper's D.C. bureau; and the NYT's City Room blog has a new editor. [Politico, NYT]
• If you love Jersey Shore, maybe you'll be interested in Jersey Couture? [THR]
• Bad news for tweens, pervs: Hannah Montana is coming to an end. [MTV]
• Ben Silverman's studio/glorified ad agency is teaming up with Yahoo! [NYT]
• President Obama's State of the Union address will not—repeat not—conflict with Lost's season opener on February 2. So you can relax now. [WSJ]
• Did Reuters kill a story so as to not offend billionaire Steve Cohen? [Gawker]
• If you work at Condé Nast and you go get a boob job, you probably shouldn't show your new assets to your colleagues when your return to the office. (Even if you're behind closed doors and you keep your sports bra on.) [NYP]

Kirk · 01/08/10 03:25PMThe A-Team's trailer leaked today. It's majestically, powerfully unimpressive. It's got: guns, helicopter shots, car crashes, Jessica Biel, a surprisingly chiseled Bradley Cooper, even planesplosions! Somehow, it fails to excite. Watch and learn how not to make a film.
On Today's Martha: It's OK to Fart in Yoga Class
Whitney Jefferson · 01/08/10 03:23PMToday's Martha was all about Yoga and her experts got down to the important stuff: farting. Apparently, it's okay to do— but the real question is whether it's socially acceptable to laugh at those who can't hold it in!

"Men who have sex at least twice a week can almost halve their risk of heart disease, according to new research. It shows men who indulge in regular lovemaking are up to 45 per cent less likely to develop life-threatening heart conditions than men who have sex once a month or less." [Telegraph]
White House and Lost Declare Truce
Brian Moylan · 01/08/10 02:53PM
Ending speculation, Carlton Cuse tweeted "No State of the Union conflict with LOST! We go Feb. 2!" Meanwhile White House press secretary Robert Gibbs is saying he doesn't "foresee a conflict." So, the State of the Union is probably on Jan. 26, and may actually only be The Corner's second-least favorite show on television.
