• Tori Spelling Reportedly On The Verge Of A Breakdown, Using Fake Ebola Scare To Get Sympathy, Viewers For 'True Tori'

    Remember when Tori Spelling was best known for being on Beverly Hills 90210 and totally pampered by her father, Aaron Spelling? She used to show up at tons of Hollywood events but there was never any drama attached to her name, until she hooked up with Dean McDermott about 8 years ago. They both ended marriages to be together and basically Spelling signed on for a world of drama. Last weekend she checked herself into a hospital with a supposed "Ebola scare" and she has incorporated her hospital stint into promoting her second season of True Tori currently airing on Lifetime.

  • Barnabas Davis Arrested in New Jersey with 633 Wax Folds of Heroin Branded with 'Ebola' Trademarks

    Drug dealers are a dime a dozen, so in order to stand out they have to do something a little different. At least, that is what accused drug dealer Barnabas Davis seemed to be thinking when he was arrested in Toms River, New Jersey, on Monday, Oct. 20. Police were called to Davis's room at a Ramada Inn because people had reported suspicious activity going on. When they arrived they found Davis — also known as "Hammer" — in possession of 633 wax folds of heroin with the trademark "Ebola" stamped on the plastic.

  • NBC's Dr. Nancy Snyderman Facing Credibility Issues, May Lose Job After Violating Ebola Self-Quarantine

    Nancy Snyderman's mandatory Ebola quarantine is set to end early this week, but her problems may just be beginning. NBC's chief medical editor was with ABC before hopping over to NBC in 2006, and over the years she had become a trusted voice in educating the public about a variety of medical topics. She and her crew were in Liberia reporting on the Ebola crisis when a cameraman, Ashoko Mukpo, contracted the virus. In response to his diagnosis, Snyderman told viewers she and the rest of her team were returning to the States and would voluntarily quarantine themselves. A week later, they were spotted getting take-out food in New Jersey, a decision that led to a mandatory quarantine and backlash from the general public.

Aguirre has spent time caring for the first infected nurse, Nina Pham and offered up details on how Dallas had never had any formal training before Thomas Eric Duncan walked through their front doors.

  • CNN Cancels 'Crossfire', Cuts 300 Jobs, Then Offers Counseling To Former Staffers

    CNN announced that it will cut 300 jobs on Wednesday and it also confirmed ongoing speculation about the future of several under-performing shows. With Jeff Zucker in charge, the news network decided to revive the long-running show Crossfire in an updated format. Unfortunately Newt Gingrich, Stephanie Cutter, S.E. Cupp and Van Jones never equaled ratings magic. The show was on hiatus for several weeks when CNN focused nonstop attention on missing flight MH370 and when it returned in July it remained the lowest rated show on any news network. Needless to say, Crossfire has been canceled as well as a few other specialty shows.

    While Dr. Nancy Snyderman's reports on the Ebola virus have become a regular part of "NBC News's" daily coverage on the epidemic, it seems she has had a hard time following her own advice. Snyderman and her news team spent several days reporting live from Liberia, and when one of the cameramen in her entourage was diagnosed with Ebola, they all returned to the States. While Snyderman has been phoning in her NBC reports due to a voluntary quarantine, the doctor has not exactly stayed indoors.
