Apparently, Teresa reacted in some way to our musings on the debut of the television version of the corporate porn-pushing gossip site TMZ.com, on which she plays one of the supporting plug-uglies to "main on-air personality" Harvey Levin-- and not our advice and reactions to the execrable carolla radio show in which she plays the femme punching bag, referred to by the nasal host as a "Jewess," and forced to giggle at crude comments about her "V" and sex life.
Teresa, whom we salute as an actual writer, has unfortunately become wedged in the Carolla-Kimmel sexist lunkhead factory (as a print columnist, she also falls into the tired Fifties-stereotype as the hapless serial dater) as the prim counterpoint to Kimmel's gal Sarah Silverman (We watched nutty Sarah's ooh-how-shocking show last night and have to ask again: Is her head too small for her body or what?) and has seen her reputation erode further from her halcyon makeover-show hosting days with bad lighting and pancake makeup on the TMZ TV show.Hey, we feel her pain.
So what did she say about us? Everyone in the Tabloid Baby office is very excited to know. Who'd think that the corporate monoliths would not only read-- but send out one of their hirees to respond to-- the comments of a small, independent operation?
Ha!
(Oh, when we wrote "nude," we meant stripped of all pretense. If you feel ripped off, go to this NSFW Tabloid Baby tribute site and ogle nudies to your heart's content. T's not there, but her predecessor at the Carolla show is).
Adam Carolla's show? Well, if it weren't for Jimmy Kimmel...
ReplyDeleteYou are totally correct. TMZ is the lowest form of money whoring. In the case of Teresa. Or pimping in the case of Harvey. BLECH.
ReplyDeleteYour right Kimmel and Carolla suck, I hate that they have had such success. It is so lucky how their 5 execrable tv shows (Crank yankers, The Man show, LoveLine, The Adam Carolla Project and Jimmy Kimmel live) even were aired. I mean I found this site because of them I am sure you feel as bad as me about that. Plus every one around them sucks and they have shows too...Sarah silverman Has a show and even after that crap she gets to host award shows? Danny has his crap show in the can. and T she only has two shows. Thank god for us that when ADAm made a movie nobody would pay for it and he has to take money from his parents to make his ill fated hammer. Those two are like the plague
ReplyDeleteMartin, what's your point? Britney Spears has a hit record too. The old boys network keeps these 2 employed and that's a fact. Kimmel's early work on the tube was pretty bad. Lady Luck is with these two. Sarah's okay.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah... and Loveline was created by Poorman at KROQ.

anonymous...Loveline the T.V. show, not the syndicated radio show that adam and drew took to new heights. Your right though ABC/ESPN talked with CBS radio to get adam hired. FOX Football Talk to ABC/ESPN to get jimmey his job...and the Good old boys at Comedy Central have always controlled who becomes and stays successful. If only I new your name :(
ReplyDeletehey, when they want you they don't get you hired over at the competitor's place. :)
ReplyDeleteadam carolla is a genius, teresa strassers work with tmz is sad, b/c i think she is way above that, but she is not talked down to constantly as this blog post makes you think. listen to his show and it will change your view.
ReplyDeletego see the hammer. stop stereotyping carolla. it's narrow minded and childish.
I know this is a dead site which is no longer being updated, but I can't help but comment when I encounter an arrogant and insecure writer whose style isn't nearly as dynamic as he or she believes. Whoever wrote this post is not nearly as good of a writer as he or she thinks. The complex sentence structure here is nothing special and is, at best, barely coherent and gramatically correct. The writer's style smacks of arrogance and insecurity.
