    Why Was Barack Obama At CAA? Every so often, we at Defamer offer our help in solving the mysteries that occasionally intersect with our readers' lives in the entertainment industry. Asks a curious operative: I saw Senator Barack Obama at CAA [yesterday] afternoon in the lobby with some unidentified people. Can you help us figure this out? We will freely admit that we have no idea why the distinguished gentleman from Illinois would be strolling through the House That Ovitz Built, unless it was to tour the CAA headquarters' state-of-the-art baby preparation facilities, perform a quick investigation of widely rumored...
  • Book claims China bred Yao Ming for basketball

    01/18/2006 11:08:10 AM PST · by s2baccha · 5 replies · 404+ views
    A book by an experienced writer claims it was no accident Yao Ming became a basketball player; that the powers that be in China steadily pushed him and held him to that pursuit. Operation Yao Ming, published by Penguin Group and written by Brook Larmer, a former Newsweek and Christian Science Monitor journalist, says that Chinese officials spent many years anticipating Yao Ming's birth, literally waiting for him to exist because of who his parents were. And from the moment he was born, the powers that be made sure he'd be big like his parents, and made him become a...

    Hip-hop star KANYE WEST is advising his white counterparts that they can only use certain slang terms when they're out of style for black people. The JESUS WALKS rapper - who recently charged that US President GEORGE W BUSH "doesn't care" about African Americans - believes that certain slang words should only be able to cross racial barriers when they're no longer in style for black people. He says, "I think white people are allowed to say 'bling'. They are allowed to say old-school black slang, like 'hottie' and 'homie'. "Actually, I do not think that (white people) are allowed...

    KENOSHA, Wis. - Two members of the U.S. Navy face charges after a woman called the 911 emergency number with a chilling message.

  • MSNBC:Conspiracy Minded Tipster in Levy Case?

    08/02/2001 7:00:39 AM PDT · by s2baccha · 7+ views
    Last night (8.1) during the 5 o'clock hour, MSNBC reported that the tipster(body under parking lot tip) was a "conspiracy minded individual," and in perfect propaganda style, she repeated the keywords 3 times in 10 seconds. From what I've found out about WETIP.COM, the whole purpose is for the tipster remain completely anonymous. I've also heard that it was a telephone call placed to WETIP, and that the three pages were transcribed by hand, meaning the call taker would be the only one to know ANYTHING about the tipster's "mind" There were two anchors at the time, I believe Norah ...

    The jailing of a Texas reporter who refused to give her research to U.S. prosecutors has raised concerns that Attorney General John Ashcroft is reversing a policy that gives journalists wide latitude in protecting confidential sources and unpublished information. At the Justice Department's request, a federal judge jailed freelance writer Vanessa Leggett on July 20 on contempt of court charges after she refused to turn over notes, tape recordings and other material she collected while researching a book on the slaying of Doris Angleton in 1997. Angleton was the wife of Robert Angleton, a millionaire ex-bookie who was acquitted in ...

  • Mrs. Condits' Thumbs

    07/22/2001 2:01:55 PM PDT · by s2baccha
    While reading threads about Condit(D-CA) in the past few days, there has been much talk about the state and condition of Mrs. Condits' thumbs. Something about them missing or twisted, possibly due to some hanging or other mutilation. Does anyone know of any articles or pictures regarding said thumbs? Back when this story was breaking there were also reports of Mrs. Condit being seriously ill. Nothing has been said since. Any Info?
