Daily News Soon to Be as Famous as Whitney and Bobby's Bathroom
Bravo's Tabloid Wars--that docu-reality-miniseries peek into Mort Zuckerman's Daily News ant farm--hits TVs July 24, the summer after it was filmed. Today brings the press kit, complete with a mock newspaper touting the series' many dramatic attractions ("Married gossip columnists George Rush and Joanna Malloy balance family life and work when their son's sudden injury leaves Rush to cover a Gotti family party solo"..."Columnist Lenore Skenazy scours the city for 'intriguing oddballs'"). read more »
The most excitement, though, comes from the back page roundup of the series' principal characters. Here's Michael Cooke, Editor-in-Chief--"Currently, Cooke is back in the windy city where he is vice president of editorial operations for the Chicago group of papers at Sun-Times parent company, Hollinger Inc." There's Hudson "Hud" Morgan, Junior Gossip Columnist To Lloyd Grove--"Morgan is currently an associate editor at Men's Vogue." Forget the real-life news-chasing story lines. Maybe Bravo shoulda just modeled the program on Survivor.
