In 100 yrs, when ppl chronicle how America got past race, the uptick in white ppl calling blacks racist is going to be seen as a symptom of the end.
— John McWhorter, who studies race and language at the conservative Manhattan Institute via this AP article by Jesse Washington.

TV 3.0 - It’s Still TV to Me…

That’s the title of Bill Stone’s panel at SXSW Interactive. I’m biased because Sometimesdaily is on Flo TV’s line up… but I know this will be interesting as the last time I saw Bill talk he kept me engaged for 90+ minutes. Learn about Bill’s panel here.

Watching Heidi Pratt Montag’s performance during Miss University 2009 takes me nine years back in time. Now, watch the professional. I’d take Britney’s infectious craziness over Heidi’s blaise, bored attitude any day of the week.

Director Quentin Tarantino, after premiering Inglorious Basterds to wildly mixed reviews at this May’s Cannes Film Festival, went back into the cutting room with it and opened the movie to the American public on Friday. While reviews still ran the gamut from four stars to fewer, most critics still singled out Pitt’s no-nonsense anti-Nazi Tennessean.
— Never estimate the power of a good re-edit. Good thing Tarantino was open enough to criticism to rework the film and make it, well, a smash hit!
