24 to detonate nukes this season?
The Drudge Report had a lead story on its web site today citing anonymous sources who say that this season's 24 story line may involve the detonation of nuclear weapons. (Wait a second, didn't we already have a nuke detonation?)
Drudge, noting that a recent, real-life CIA report had "outlined a scenario of [a] possible 'series of explosions using low charge nuclear weapons,'" said that Fox studio sources want to push the nuclear story line in order to wake up the U.S. populace to the real dangers of terrorists setting off nuclear bombs
Real Kramer says he's not fake Kramer
One forgotten victim in this whole "Michael Richards goes nuts and screams racist remarks" controversy just might be Kenny Kramer, the real-life guy who was the inspiration for the Cosmo Kramer character on Seinfeld. While it's great to have the fake Kramer be associated with the real Kramer during good times, it can be sort of disconcerting if people start to associate the real Kramer with the fake one when things are bad.
Kramer (the real one) is upset that news outlets such as The Drudge Report and Michael Savage are saying "Kramer's a racist." Personally, I don't see how the two could possibly be confused. I mean, to be honest, do people really even think of the real Kramer that much? I don't think the news outlet's are saying "Kramer's a racist" to confuse anyone, and I don't think it's misleading. They're using the last name because it's the name of one of the most famous (and beloved) characters in TV history.
Richards went on Jesse Jackson's radio show over the weekend to explain himself, apologize, and to begin the "healing." In a related story, the character of Kramer will now be edited out of all the Seinfeld episodes he appears in.
