ID NET TO DO JONBENET, AS A DOCU-DRAMA.
It was the crime that gripped the nation—a bright, beaming, 6-year old beauty queen is mysteriously murdered in her very own home the day after Christmas in 1996. Investigators navigated false leads, a heavily compromised crime scene and a maze of finger-pointing. But now, 20 years later, Investigation Discovery (ID) in an unprecedented partnership with Weinstein Television, Jupiter Entertainment and American Media, Inc. (AMI)—parent company to RadarOnline and The National ENQUIRER, who have closely followed every lead and every step of the case—sheds new light on the still-unsolved case of who killed JonBenét Ramsey. In a three-night television event beginning Monday, September 12 at 10/9c, ID rips this cold case open with JONBENÉT: AN AMERICAN MURDER MYSTERY (wt), chronologically reexamining the evidence to challenge long-held beliefs at the center of this enduring mystery. The series will also premiere within Discovery Networks International's portfolio of factual and lifestyle channels in more than 220 countries and territories this fall.
"Provocative, investigative programming is what ID does best – and there is no better case for us to take on than the two-decade long, agonizing mystery of what happened to JonBenét Ramsey," said Henry Schleiff, Group President, Investigation Discovery, American Heroes Channel and Destination America. "The fact is, we may never definitively know the answer to that question – but ID will re-explore every angle, every shred of evidence, and every 'whodunit' theory to allow our viewers to draw their own conclusions on the case."
Commented Weinstein Television Executive Vice President, Patrick Reardon: "AMI and Jupiter are the best true crime storytellers in the business and we are thrilled to be partnering with them on this project. Along with Investigation Discovery, we have found the perfect home to tell a whole new side of this 20-year mystery."
Said Dylan Howard, Chief Content Officer, AMI: "JonBenét Ramsey is the most compelling cold case murder of our day, and still haunts millions of people around the world who so desperately want answers. This series is the most authoritative and thorough examination of the investigation to date, and will lead viewers on a fascinating exploration of never-before-seen police evidence, and probe key figures in the crime with provocative questions. Utilizing the world-class reporting of AMI's publications and its investigators, JONBENÉT: AN AMERICAN MURDER MYSTERY provides detailed profiles and reveal chief suspects as we pursue the greatest unanswered question of them all — who killed this innocent beauty queen."
"We are thrilled to be working with ID, Weinstein Company and American Media, Inc. to bring old and new evidence to light," said Allison Wallach, President of Jupiter Entertainment. "Numerous theories and investigations have been launched from this case and we are excited for the chance to showcase them all together in one captivating series."
JONBENÉT: AN AMERICAN MURDER MYSTERY (wt) is an unabridged and comprehensive look at the entire case around JonBenét Ramsey's murder, from top-to-bottom. As headlines and sensational breaking news chronicled the investigation's every move, the country became transfixed by the child behind the pageant star, and the bizarre circumstances of her death. Featuring rarely-shared police interrogation tapes, unsealed documents and more than 500 family photos, JONBENÉT: AN AMERICAN MURDER MYSTERY (wt) is the definitive look at every angle of this tragic and controversial murder investigation.
Exclusive interviewees featured in this three-part series include Gordon Coombes, a former investigator for the Boulder County District Attorney's office, offering unique insight into the inner-workings of the office during critical moments in the case; Diane Dimond, an investigative journalist for Hard Copy who covered the case on the ground in Boulder from the very beginning; Bobby Brown and Steve Pease, both former Colorado Springs Detectives and protégés of Lou Smit's famed Apple Dumpling Gang—a group of retired law enforcement officials famous for solving some of the nation's toughest cold cases.
Other individuals interviewed include Ollie Gray and John San Agustin, private investigators for the Ramsey family and leading voices advocating the "Intruder Theory"; Bob Whitson, former Sergeant in the Boulder Police, who was in the Ramsey house the day JonBenét's body was discovered; and Pamela Griffin, Patsy Ramsey's confidant who handmade all of JonBenét's pageant costumes.
JONBENÉT: AN AMERICAN MURDER MYSTERY (wt) is produced for Investigation Discovery by Weinstein Television, American Media, Inc., and Jupiter Entertainment with Harvey Weinstein, Bob Weinstein, Patrick Reardon, Stephen Land, Allison Wallach, Matt Sprouse, David Pecker and Dylan Howard as Executive Producers.

TOM GREEN WANTS DONALD TRUMP, TO DANCE AWAY FROM THE ELECTION.
Hot on the heels of the Republican National Convention's official endorsement of Donald Trump as their candidate, legendary viral comedian Tom Green encourages everyone on the internet to watch "Do the Donald."
Do the Donald starring Tom Green is seeing massive success on Funny or Die, as the catchy rap song hit 1 million plus views in the first three days of its release.
"I am releasing this song now to draw attention to the racially charged rhetoric that has been used by Donald Trump in his 2016 presidential campaign. Using Donald Trump's own words in the song reminds us of how he has fanned the flames of racism in order to divide America in the upcoming election. I believe that our leaders should focus on the positive aspects of a multicultural and inclusive society. These are the things that truly make America great."
-Tom Green
-Tom Green
It's no surprise "Do the Donald" has hit one million views so quickly given Tom Green's successful track record of parody songs, including the "Bum Bum Song", which was an overwhelming success that reached #1 on MTV.
Tom Green has largely stayed out of the political scene, but this isn't the first time he's been connected to Donald Trump. Some may remember his three episode stint on the 2009 season of Celebrity Apprentice where he was fired for going out drinking with Dennis Rodman on the night he was the project manager. Donald Trump screamed at him then, but no word from the Republican nominee regarding the latest dance sensation.
Although it's meant to protest the divisive rhetoric of the Trump 2016 campaign, Tom Green's catchy song about the orange presidential hopeful with the $10 wig will have us all doing "The Donald."
Watch Do the Donald.

WINE UP @ THE WILTERN!
Garasite is a French term, that means artisan. It is the word, that described the Garagiste Wine Fest- that took place, last week at the marble encased Wiltern Theater. The fest has taken place for five years now, since 2011. The fest promoted an explorer taste of fine wine and a anti-snob tone, that would make either generation of the Ghostbusters proud.
The amazing thing about the dozens of wine tasted, is the uniqueness of all the brands.
One of the best marketed is Paso Port’s Ruby wine. A red wine, who’s sexy Latina Model on the cover sheet, is there -in order to attract men and lesbians. There were three more brands including Angelica, Violita and Tawny. The models don’t really exist and were created by the artist, to create a true full bodied look
and feel ,for the aroma of the wine.
Bertha Mae was a brownie company, that hoped to use its brownie gift baskets, that are to be sold in wine stories. The samples were pretty tasty. The Chocolate Stache sold spicy chocolate bites, which used the wine to cool down its sweet and sour taste in your mouth. A quirky old Paul Hogan type, of the Australian Kitchen proudly serves a tangy tomato sauce that is used on Hot dogs and “breakfast eggs.”
The great surprise is the sole black winery, Theopolis Vineyards. Near Sonoma County, the vineyards are run by Theodora Lee, a trial lawyer who runs the place on the side. Their best wine, is called Symphony- a white wine taste is similar, to fine Vitamin Water with a rich wetness.
The worst thing at the event is a guy who- looked like Brad Sherwood, playing Jason from his new Jason show. Mostly, his bigoted lying cunt lady friend of his sucks, due to their rudeness. He was nice and cordial, at first.The worst wine was a Cabernet Sauvigon called Prism. It is too bitter and oaky to enjoy,despite an elegant design sticker with dark bottling.

TRASHY MMA SHOW KINGDOM, RENEWED FOR THIRD SEASON.
The "KINGDOM" cast features Frank Grillo ("Captain America"), Kiele Sanchez ("The Purge"), Matt Lauria("Friday Night Lights"), Jonathan Tucker ("Parenthood"), Nick Jonas, Joanna Going ("House of Cards") and Natalie Martinez ("Secrets and Lies"). Creator, writer and showrunner Byron Balasco serves as executive producer. "KINGDOM" is produced by Endemol Shine Studios.
"The success of season 2 of KINGDOM proves how captivating this series is and how viewers have invested and connected with the characters' lives," said Christopher Long, senior vice president, Original Content and Production, AT&T. "Byron Balasco has been at the helm of this gritty mixed martial arts family drama since its inception and has showcased heart wrenching topics that no other show on television has had the strength to touch. We couldn't be happier to have Byron on for another season and have no doubt that he will create a compelling storyline that no one will forget."
"KINGDOM is a very special series with exceptional writing and leadership from Byron Balasco and one of the most talented top-to-bottom ensemble casts in all of television," says Endemol Shine Studios President Sharon Hall. "We're thrilled to extend our partnership with the team at AT&T AUDIENCE Network and deliver a 3rd season of a series that both critics and viewers globally have enthusiastically embraced."
"I'm beyond grateful to AT&T and to Endemol Shine for allowing us to continue on," said Balasco. "I am in awe of this incredible cast and inspired by the craft and creativity of my crew. We love making the show and feel like we've only scratched the surface. We're already back to work. Scripts are being written. Blood is being shed."
Season 2 continued to put up a fight with all of its players, throwing them back in the ring. In the first half of the 2nd season, troubled brothers Ryan and Nate's discovery of their drug-overdosed mother, Christina, puts them back in a whirlwind where their brotherly bond is placed in the forefront. Alvey, concerned that Nate will not find his rhythm as an MMA fighter, is blinded by his failing relationship with Lisa and the loss of their infant son. Ryan accepts a challenge that will test not only his physical endurance but also his relationship with his best friend. Nate is eager to get back into the cage to prove that he has what it takes to make it as a fighter. Jay faces another opportunity to defend his lightweight title despite his battle with addiction. Lisa's return puts both Alvey and the Navy St. MMA gym at stake.
During the 2nd half of season 2, which is currently airing on AUDIENCE Network every Wednesday 9 p.m. ET/PT, boundaries and relationships are being tested. Nate is ready to return to the cage to prove that he's still a viable fighter. Ryan continues to demonstrate his dominance at the gym while Nate attempts to drag Jay away from his new life with Ava. Alicia faces a career-defining decision that will alter her relationships with everyone at the gym. Alvey is stuck in a predicament with his connection with Roxanne and Lisa's return to Los Angeles. Strength and stamina are put to the ultimate test when Jay and Ryan are faced with a rematch, fighting for the title of the lightweight belt.
"KINGDOM" is distributed internationally by Endemol Shine International.
AT&T AUDIENCE Network is available on DIRECTV Ch. 239 or U-verse TV Ch. 1114 and via live streaming on the DIRECTV and U-verse apps.

DISH PLAYS HARBALL ON TRIBUNE/CW AFFILATES ON ITS SYSTEM.
Dish Network for the 12th time (in three years,) has knocked out a huge station group-off its programming slate. Local CW station KTLA, started running (like the other 42 Tribune owned stations, hitting 50 million homes) toll free hotlines to focre Dish, back to the negotionag table to keep giving viewers what they need.
This deals a serous blow to WGN America, just as its establishing itself- as a major player of quality programing, with the accliamed Undeground and white trash soap, Outsiders.
