CBS News Wins 10 News and Documentary Emmys

Getty ImagesRachel Maddow, left, and Anderson Cooper NEW YORK -- CBS News walked off with 10 Emmys at the 32ndAnnual News and Documentary Emmy Awards Monday night in NY, the most of any network. TheCBS Evening News With Katie Couric won awards including Emmys for continuing coverage (for correspondent Terry McCarthy's "Afghan Bomb Squad") and investigative journalism (for correspondent Armen Keteyian's report about the hidden dangers of photocopiers). Couric did not attend the ceremony. But Scott Pelley, who took over as anchor of the CBS Evening News in June, took the podium to accept multiple Emmys for 60 Minutes, including reports on the BP oil spill and the high percentage of NFL players who hail from the tiny island nation of Samoa. Pelley thanked his producers at CBS News and noted that "one of the terrible things about being a television news reporter is you receive far too much credit for the work of others." 60 Minutes also won the Emmy for outstanding interview for Lara Logan's piece on Staff Sgt. Salvatore Augustine Giunta, who last year became the first Medal of Honor winner since the Vietnam War. Presenters included ABC News' Brain Ross, MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell, CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta and PBS' Gwen Ifill, who acknowledged the quickly changing new-media landscape that has upended the role of TV news. "Audiences increasingly get the news from everyone but us," said Ifill, citing the web and social media including Twitter. "All of that is fine, but news still needs a curator." Cable networks have become increasingly competitive at the National Academy's signature news and documentary awards. And National Geographic Channel earned the second-most Emmys with seven, including multiple awards for Tim Hetherington and Sebastian Junger's Restrepo: Afghan Outpost. Hetherington was killed last April in Libya. And Junger accepted the award for long-form coverage of a news story accompanied by Hetherington's mother Judith. His death, said Junger, has left "a gaping absence. He devoted his life to chronicling the human cost of war." PBS earned six Emmys with four going to POV documentaries and one to documentary series Independent Lens. But the public broadcaster's flagship newsmagazine Frontline, traditionally the recipient of numerous and significant Emmy awards, received only one -- for its promotional campaign. It was a "consolation" prize, noted longtime executive producer David Fanning. And ABC News was shut out entirely. Discovery Channel took home three Emmys, including multiple awards for First Life With David Attenborough. Anderson Cooper 360 earned both of CNN's Emmys and both were for reports from earthquake ravaged Haiti, a story the network spent much time and resources to cover. Accepting the Emmy for coverage of a breaking news story for "Haiti in Ruins," correspondent Gary Tuchman thanked his "bosses who got us out the door within minutes [of the earthquake] and said, 'Spend whatever you have to spend.'" Cooper was unable to attend because he was on the air. Rachel Maddow was also a no-show because she was hosting her MSNBC show, which earned the the Emmy for discussion and analysis for "Good Morning, Landlocked Central Asia," which was reported by Maddow and NBC News chief foreign correspondent Richard Engel. NBC News earned two Emmys for Nightly News and Dateline. Larry King was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award. Introducing King, Brian Williams asked the audience to "consider these three numbers: 25, 40 and 50,000" for King's years as host of CNN's Larry King Live, years in broadcasting and number of interviews conducted. "And that's all I have," quipped Williams. "I came unprepared as an homage, a word I will explain to Larry King later." After the laughs subsided, Williams explained that King's talent as an interviewer was that he approached his guests with a fresh eye and without preconceived opinions. "He was a guy from Brooklyn who loved to talk to people and loved to tell a story," said Williams. "You wouldn't dream of making news and not following it up with a visit to his table." A video tribute featured a slew of famous faces who made the pilgrimage toLarry King Live (Elizabeth Taylor, Bill Clinton, Vladimir Putin, Al Gore and Ross Perot, the parents of JonBenet Ramsay and Marlon Brando famously kissing King on the mouth). King took the stage dressed in a black suit and shrugged off his jacket to reveal is signature suspenders. "I was lucky enough to be in a business where I really didn't have to work," said an emotional King. "It was unbelievable to go in every night and meet people and ask them questions. It was a privilege, a privilege." King thanked his producers, his brother, his children, his step-children, his in-laws, his "cousin from Brooklyn," Williams and Dan Rather, his "two favorite people." "Anybody else? Who am I forgetting? Oh yeah, the wife," laughed King, exhorting Shawn Southwick, his seventh wife, to stand. Said King: "Behind every man is a woman shoving him aside to get the attention."

EMMYS: Lead Comedy Actress Handicap

Ray Richmond is contributing to Payment dates 2011 Emmy coverage. Heres his scorecard assessing the Outstanding Lead Comedy Series Actress race. Laura Linney, The Big C Showtime Why She Was Nominated: Because, well, the tv academy couldnt perfectly not nominate her. Her role since the cancer-stricken Trina Jamison inside the Large C showcases Linneys enchanting acting range and depth. And shes furthermore a 3-time Oscar nominee. This one thing makes Linney significant brownie points and makes her Emmy nomination a formality no matter project or role. Obtaining a past film pedigree remains plenty huge. Why She Must Win: Simply pointed out, Linney never handles to get rid of. Shes been nominated for Emmys three occasions: lead actress in the movie/miniseries two occasions (2002 for Showtimes Wild Iris, 2008 for HBOs John Adams) to ensure that as guest comedy actress once (2004 for Frasier). Shes won every time. In addition, Linneys The Big C submission might be the pilot episode that finds her shifting effortlessly between high emotion and dark humor. Oh, along with the past group of individuals who win inside the category — Toni Collette and Edie Falco — recognized from similar Showtime dramedies. Why She Cant Possibly Win: Sooner or later, somebody determines when you are undertaking a seriocomic submit half-hour series, its potential more serio than comic. Falco mentioned it herself onstage after winning a year ago for Nurse Jackie: Oh situation most likely probably the most absurd factor that has ever happened inside the good status with this lovely honours show. Thank you. I'm not funny. Linney isn't as purely funny in their role similar to her rivals here — and, well, this ought to be a comedy award. When matters. Amy Poehler, Parks and Entertainment NBC Why She Was Nominated: Poehler isn't any more seen as Saturday Evening Live refugee but a primetime treasure within their right. Her confidence and irreverence have grown to be greatly since Parks and Entertainment opened up a few previously, which year she acquired noms for acting to ensure that like a set producer. Amy is just killing it every week relating to this show, thinks an actress and voting academy member. Shes also ornamented having a hysterical and highly underrated cast. Why She Must Win: Getting now spent a couple of years needing to pay her dues — with five total Emmy nominations to her credit — Poehler can be a known commodity whose genius remains anointed by fellow genius and greatest friend Tina Fey. Her episodic submission, “Flu Season,” perfectly showcases her comedy chops as her alter ego Leslie Knope fights off flu signs and signs and symptoms and her medications narcotic undesirable effects. As if everything werent enough, shes switched 40 on Friday, and so the birthday gods are along with her. Why She Cant Possibly Win: Buzz might not be enough, specifically when you are ornamented by Linney on a single for yellows and Fey alternatively as Poehler is this time around around. And again, yesteryear couple of years this category remains less about obtaining the laughs laptop or computer gets the tears. Confirms a collection producer, If theyre prone to require giving this Emmy to someone delivering dramatic work, then affect the title in the category to steer Actress Doing Whatever. Tina Fey, 30 Rock NBC Why She Was Nominated: Are you currently presently kidding? Duh! This makes 19 Emmy nominations for Fey in the event you add these up. Shes won seven of those, including lead acting for 30 Rock in 2008. She remains a comedy goddess also nominated for creating 30 Rock and guest performing on SNL (she lost). Within the this past year, she also added a best-selling memoir to her credit sheet. A cabinet publish cant be far behind, particularly should you-know-who comprises a late entry into the presidential race. Why She Must Win: This wouldnt be as major an upset as it can certainly appear. Fey completed for consideration a lively and energetic performance inside the published episode which has guest Matt Damon playing her boyfriend. So theres the extra star energy. An Emmy-winning author described, Id election for Tina Fey if she were nominated for supermarket checker. If there's a backlash against another Showtime actress while using prize, Fey could again sneak up. Why She Cant Possibly Win: The vibe with voters is always that theyve honored Fey enough. Shes already taken home Emmys in five different groups, on her behalf acting, writing and creating capabilities. The lady also hasnt exactly been underexposed yesteryear five years. After five years, Fey is most likely inside the honored-just-being-nominated phase of her 30 Rock existence. Edie Falco, Nurse Jackie Showtime Why She Was Nominated: She won for lead actress this past year, and Falco has proven an greatly popular artist while using TV academy within the last dozen years — extremely popular they carted in the statuette for just about any role on Nurse Jackie that even she confesses isn't whatsoever funny. That is Falcos ninth nomination, and shes formerly won 50% of your energy (plus a trio of wins for your Sopranos in 1999, 2001 and 2003). Why She Must Win: Well, as last years triumph attests, voters love Falco a great deal that theyll even recognition her on her behalf comedy when shes not trying to create laughs. A producer notifies me, In my opinion they just selected for Edie a year ago from habit, without disturbing to look for the show as well as the category. Whether or not this happened once, it could happen again. Why She Cant Possibly Win: Nevertheless it probably wont. Linney will probably be drawing lots of serious actress doing quasi-comedy election. Furthermore, it's not vulnerable to help that in turning up so shocked while chastising the academy for giving her when shes not funny, the romance with Falco will diminish. Voters may frequently believe her now. Melissa McCarthy, Mike & Molly CBS Why She Was Nominated: The most recent kid round the comedy block received her first-ever Emmy jerk for Mike & Molly in large measure from her much-buzzed performance inside the feature Bridesmaids. Warmth is constantly build for McCarthy just like a talent, which explains why she could overcome the stigma to become around the CBS series handful of are talking about. Why She Must Win: An upset possibility looms. Of all of the competitors in this race, McCarthy may be the best pure comic. A contingent of voters will gravitate her way because of the very fact she stars around the traditional comedy. As there are her growing film resume (she’s presently shooting a Judd Apatow feature) as well as the sense that McCarthys star will shoot into orbit. A voting author described, In my opinion Melissa will draw most of the youthful election. Popular movie (Knocked Up) also aided Katherine Heigl win the Emmy for Greys Anatomy in 2007. Why She Cant Possibly Win: Its rare the actress wins in their maiden Emmy voyage. The normal routine requires a couple of deficits before the very first is considered worth drawing the winning hands. Furthermore, it's not as if your competitors isn't thick. Barring just a little miracle, McCarthys time lay later on, though much less far. Martha Plimpton, Raising Hope Fox Why She Was Nominated: Some were amazed at this, nonetheless they shouldnt are actually. Plimpton remains bubbling individually distinct since she hit screens just like a kid inside the mid-eighties inside the Goonies. Shes an extremely respected talent which has attracted raves and Tony nominations on her behalf Broadway work lately additionally to plenty of chatter for Foxs Raising Hope. Why She Must Win: Lots of people Ive spoken to positively respected Martha inside the episode shes up for, states another actor. Its about her character (Virginia Chance) fighting to acquire her family together for just about any picture, which is just amusing. Getting an inspired submission should count for something. In the perfect world, it may be also enough to propel Plimpton with a shocking upset win. Why She Cant Possibly Win: This isn't anything close to a perfect world. Getting nothing associated with how good Plimpton is on Raising Hope, both she and her series not have the sufficient buzz with an actress landing her second nomination (the initial coming 2002 just like a guest on NBCs Law & Order: SVU). This nom may serve as category filler if this involves obtaining a genuine chance, nevertheless the suspicion is always that Plimpton will probably be back here again before too extended.

Lawsuit Says News Corp Board Allowed A Historic Pattern Of Corruption

The corporate governance suit against News Corp that several labor-backed pension funds have filed in Delaware is becoming more interesting — and potentially important. The group led by Amalgamated Bank, the New Orleans Employees’ Retirement System, and theCentral Laborers Pension Fundtoday filed an amended complaint thatsays News Corp directors rubber-stamped decisions that led to nearly $1B in settlements and verdicts from privacy breeches and other problems at News America Marketing and NDS. These problemsplus other incidents including the News of the World hacking scandals “were part of a much broader, historic pattern of corruption at News Corp, under the acquiescence of a board that was fully aware of the wrongdoing, if not directly complicit in the actions,” says the group’s lawyer Jay Eisenhofer of Grant & Eisenhofer. Theyhave alreadytold Delaware’s Chancery Court that News Corp’s execs and board violated their legal duty to protect shareholder interests when they agreed to pay $615M for Elisabeth Murdoch’s Shine Group TV production company — which the group calls “a sweetheart deal.” They also amended the complaint to include the NOTW scandal. The new filing says that the board’snegligence was evidentin developments that led to recent cases where News America Marketing, an in-store marketer, was found to have engaged in espionage and anti-competitive behavior. Among the allegations in five lawsuits: NAM hacked competitors’ computers and “issued false press releases impugning a rival it was trying to purchase,” the labor group says.NAM’s CEO was quoted as having told rivals that “If you ever get into any of our businesses I will destroy you. … I work for a man (Rupert Murdoch) who wants it all and doesn’t understand anybody telling him he can’t have it all.” NAM ended up paying $300M in damages, and $650M to settle three of the suits. Separately, the amended complaint says that Charlie Ergen’s EchoStar charged NDS with helping consumers to illegally access Dish Network programming for free.A federal jury sided with Ergen and issued an injunction that prevented NDS from intercepting EchoStar’s satellite signals. News Corp isn’t commenting about the new charges. The company told the Delaware court in July that directors have broad latitude to make business judgments — and the complaint failed to prove that they had abused their authority.

Rampart

A Lightstream Pictures, Waypoint Entertainment presentation in colaboration using the 3rd Mind Pictures. (Worldwide sales: Sierra-Affinity.) Produced by Lawrence Inglee, Clark Billings, Ben Promote, Ken Kao. Executive producers, Michael DeFranco, Lila Yacoub, Mark Gordon, Paul Currie, Garrett Kelleher. Co-producers, Luca Borghese, Ross Ioppolo. Directed by Oren Moverman. Script, James Ellroy, Moverman.With: Woodsy Harrelson, Ned Beatty, Francis Capra, Ben Promote, Anne Heche, Ice Cube, Brie Larson, Audra McDonald, Cynthia Nixon, Sigourney Weaver, Robert Understanding, Robin Wright, Steve Buscemi, Jon Bernthal, Jon Promote, Stella Schnabel, Sammy Boyarsky.Casting a cynical backward consider the police ripoffs that rocked La inside the late 1990's, author-director Oren Moverman ("The Messenger") and resident crime-fiction specialist James Ellroy deliver a very-wrought but considerably narrow account from the scuzzy cop's personal and professional meltdown in "Rampart." Woodsy Harrelson is excellent just like a cynical, trigger-happy officer oblivious for the fresh winds of change and accountability sweeping through his embattled department. But because the film is drenched in atmosphere and packs a verbal and visceral punch, its relentless volitile manner produces an overdetermined, not entirely satisfying character study with modest niche-release prospects. The title alone seems to promise a dense, meaty ensemble piece examining the large network of corruption and misconduct that found light within the La Police Dept.'s Rampart division, that greater than 70 cops were charged with functions of unprovoked brutality, evidence falsification together with other crimes. But while Ellroy has written plenty of books in this intricate, layer-by-seedy-layer vein (and formerly co-scripted the 2008 L.A. corrupt-cops thriller "Street Nobleman"), his collaboration with Moverman keeps the ripoffs largely without anyone's understanding in the Rampart cop who drives the film's every scene. It's 1999, and Officer Dork Brown (Harrelson) can be a rough-justice type whose 24 years concerning the pressure have trained him involve bending the recommendations once in some time. Early moments give a quick sketch from the charismatically crooked figure, from his combative associations along with his fellow authorities, laced with delicately racist and chauvinist put-downs, to his oddly functional associations along with his ex-partners (Anne Heche and Cynthia Nixon), who still accept him and each use a daughter by him. (Also, they're brothers and sisters.) It's implied that Dave's fierce protectiveness of his kids partly motivated his alleged killing from the serial rapist in the past. That inclination for boundary-pushing violence again rears its mind when Dork chases lower and sometimes beats a suspect, an action caught on video and rapidly disseminated in news reports, threatening to fireplace in the type of Rodney King-like embarrassment the LAPD doesn't need inside the wake of Rampart. Soon he's being pressed to retire by assistant da Joan Confrey (a wonderful Sigourney Weaver), most likely probably the most satisfying of many distaff nemeses Dork squares offered by these men Linda Fentress (Robin Wright), a foxy defense lawyer whom he ill-advisedly builds up in the bar. Tightening the noose round their own neck, Dork surprises a trio of armed thieves in the tense, terse setpiece that invites the scrutiny of D.A. Investigator Kyle Timkins (Ice Cube). After making some off-color insinuations about Timkins, Dork supplies a very cynical self-justification: "Bear in mind that i am not just a racist. Generally I personally don't like everyone.Inch The feeling seems being mutual, as everyone who knows Dork triggers him inside the film's partner. Pic greater than bears the intelligence and moral toughness of Moverman's 2009 pointing debut, "The Messenger," which featured Harrelson and Ben Promote (almost unrecognizable just because a destitute informant). But that is one film stood a searching quality that uncovered new depths in every single scene, "Rampart" seems to choke off feeling since it progresses, as if the filmmakers, getting determined humanity's cynical equation, had nothing left to supply psychologically. Getting spent its first half creating its antihero for defeat, the pic has nowhere to go to but lower, showing up in the same punishing note to ever-diminishing returns. But even when he seems to remain in permanent moral free-fall, Harrelson keeps you watching his uncontrollable energy and demon-may-care attitude make Dork as enjoyable while he is wretched, and also the refusal to buckle to forces of political correctness and hypocrisy instructions some admiration. Harrelson slimmed lower by 25 pounds to get a guy who, the general status of cops notwithstanding, has short amount of time to eat, and also the dedication is displayed in many sex moments carried out getting an entire insufficient vanity. Aside from one immersive latenight club sequence, the raw, handheld lensing and fleet editing never call concentrate on themselves inside the expert tech package. The city's sun-bleached outdoors to experience a tough, hellish cast in d.p. Bobby Bukowski's color-saturated HD lensing, as well as the pic fairly teems with local atmosphere, specifically in its quantity of moments within the original Tommy's hamburger joint in a corner of Beverly and Rampart.Camera (color, widescreen, HD), Bobby Bukowski editor, Jay Rabinowitz music, Dickon Hinchliffe music supervisor, Jim Black production designer, David Wasco art director, Austin Gorg set decorator, Sandy Wasco costume designer, Catherine George appear (Dolby Digital), Lisa Pinero appear designer/supervisory appear editor, Javier Bennassar effects coordinator, Larz Anderson visual effects supervisor, Dottie Starling visual effects, Wildfire Visual Effects stunt coordinator, Tim Trella connect producers, Charlie O'Carroll, William Paul Clark assistant director, William Paul Clark casting, Laura Rosenthal, Rachel Tenner.

Michael C. Hall Up for the Lead in 'Big Fish' Broadway Musical

As much as we love 'Dexter,' the fact of the matter is that there's never been enough song and dance to balance out the murders. Lucky for us, Deadline is reporting that Michael C. Hall is in talks to star in a Broadway musical adapted from Tim Burton's 2003 film 'Big Fish.' In a role originally written for Hugh Jackman, Hall would play the lead role of Edward Bloom -- a traveling salesman and born storyteller who tries to reconnect with his son after a life on the road. While Hall is best known these days as everyone's favorite serial killer, Hall had actually performed in Broadway musicals from 'Cabaret' to 'Chicago' before making his way to the small screen. Nothing's confirmed as of yet, but we're very interested to see what Hall would bring to a role that Ewan McGregor ran away with. Watch the trailer for 'Big Fish' [via Deadline]
