WEEKEND MEDIA NOTES (3#) -

# BACKSTAGE TV BLOG: I just discovered that Fred Armisen, who is a member of the ensemble cast of the Saturday Night Live TV show, is writing a blog. Prominently featured at the top of his entries this weekend is his portrayal of I'm-a-dinner-jacket, and he looks almost like his twin brother!

# Topical: PBS Radio's On The Media show this weekend includes segments on Jeff Jarvis' Networked Journalism Summit Meeting; a segment on the changing image of Arab actors and characters in the American Entertainment Landscape; and how Brian DePalma's movie had to be "trimmed," ostensibly, for legal purposes. Oh, I thought it had something to do with the Geneva Conventions. And more. It was a pretty good show.

# Bookish: A generous section at The Times of London website devoted to the Cheltenham Literature Festival. Lots to see over there. Definitely, worth a browse!
