  • Hi, There: Ice Cube has signed on to play the title role in a film adaptation of the classic 1970s TV series "Welcome Back, Kotter." So does this mean that Freddie "Boom Boom" Washington is a white dude now? I guess nothing was learned from the black "Honeymooners" fiasco last year. (E!Online)
  • Chin and Bear It: Jay Leno Apologizes to Offended Viewer / Where's my apology? I'm offended that he hasn't said anything funny in more than 10 years. (AP)
  • Gaza Strip Show: Prison siege or International Male catalog spread? (VOA)
  • Press Your Luck: TV Game Show Host Peter Tomarken, Wife Killed (LA Times)
  • Friendly Fire: A judge barred key government witnesses from testifying at the death penalty trial of Sept. 11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui, ruling yesterday that the misconduct of a federal lawyer had so tainted the prosecution's case that all evidence concerning aviation security must be stricken. "I don't think in the annals of criminal law there has ever been a case with this many significant problems." (WP)
