    This whole idea of “placing” a story to hook a movie deal is... weird.

    My tweet from August 2nd so far holds true....Omarosa has been trending nationally all day and her book is only at #140 on the Amazon bestsellers list. Not good. She is a woman without a constituency....

    Methinks Omarosa is going to have a hard time breaking through with this book unless there are some major bombshells. She has no credibility with Trump supporters, and she lost credibility with liberals years ago.

    They host, monetize, distribute and promote material. They make rules about what kind of material is allowed and design the formats. They commission producers, they talk to creators and send them big shiny gongs for achievements and tell them what to do.....

    Me in The Atlantic now: Once and for all, the platforms are not media. They don't make content.

    So Omarosa knew Trump used n-word on Apprentice, worked campaign, made no mention of it, defended him in WH and attacked black journalists who questioned her last year in front of mothers of black men killed by police, then finally left & announced lucrative tell-all book?

    I’m in ’s book on page 149. She claims to have heard from someone who heard from me that I heard Trump use the N-word. Not only is this flat-out false (I’ve never heard such a thing), but Omarosa didn’t even make an effort to call or email me to verify. Very shoddy work.

    Next month a hotel will host an anti-Muslim hate group's annual conference. Hyatt told me it doesn't "unlawfully discriminate" against such groups. But says there's no law requiring Hyatt to host a hate group like Act for America

    Never believe a word conservatives say about colleges and elitism.

    I’m shocked a bartender from Queens doesn’t want to debate a Harvard law graduate.
