Charlie Brooker shows the viewer the proper way to report a news story. If only Anderson Cooper would take a page from this book.*
*A. Coop, you know I’m joking. You can do no wrong.

…Sarah Palin has signed a multi-year deal for an undisclosed sum (i.e. a S***load) as a contributor to the Fox News Channel.
Although the formal announcement will be made this afternoon, Sarah Palin’s camp could not be reached for comment. And while many suspected she might pursue some sort of career in television after quitting resigning from her post as the governor of Alaska, it appears her Fox News deal will still allow her plenty of time in her schedule to pursue other endeavors. God help us all. Politician. TV personality. Best selling author. What’s next? President? Wait, I WAS KIDDING! PLEASE, NOOOOO!

Yesterday while at the Miami Dolphins game against the Houston Texans, I had the pleasure of running into and chatting with CNN analyst/ TV One host Roland Martin. After briefly introducing myself when he arrived, I tweeted the following:
@thefullginsburg: Just met @rolandsmartin, a classy guy. He’s at the Dolphins game sporting a Texans jersey. Guess the pinstripe suit isn’t sports attire.
To which he replied:
@TheFullGinsburg man, can’t wear the suit! I’m on vacation! Ain’t a tie in the suitcase! LOL great to meet ya. Thanks for hollerin! Game on!
Thanks to one of our readers for pointing out the photos of Michael Steele just joshin’ around with his interns over on Gawker. But what people don’t know is that we here at TFG used to intern for the office of the GOP chairman. Don’t believe us? Here are FIVE photos of Eric, Brendan, Zara, Jared, and Mike. In fact, we might use these as the TFG Holiday photos this year. Enjoy! read more…
The most recent issue of MAD Magazine (yes MAD still exists) recently revealed the 20 stupidest people of the year. Making the list, for the first but probably not the last time, at number 18: Blunder Woman! Who is Blunder Woman you ask? Well, you may know her better by her civilian identity. Check out MAD’s profile of our hero, thanks to ComicsAlliance, after the jump:
While at a book signing at the Mall of America in Minnesota, Sarah Palin was adored by thousands of fans. But there was at least one man who was far from a fan, and had no problem showing it. A man was arrested for allegedly throwing not one, but TWO, tomatoes at the former Alaskan Governor from a second floor balcony of the mall.
Neither tomato came close to hitting Sarah Palin, but did hit a police officer instead. Whoops!
