• J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League Defend Bill Cosby in Series of Tweets

    It seems like every day a new sexual allegation arises against Bill Cosby. He lost his potential Netflix special and NBC decided to drop his new series. There are few people in his corner and understandably so when multiple women are accusing Cosby of rape. It appears he just got the production trio J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League on his side in a series of now-deleted tweets that, among many things, said: Cosby was one of the "top 10 black people" in earth's history.Continuing that train of thought, someone on the account claims "He gets a pass" and one of Cosby's alleged victims Janice Dickinson, via "CBS News," "isn't even top 10 in any category."The production trio reminds Twitter that Cosby has not been convicted yet and he has only been ostracized in the court of public opinion:"Might I remind you, there's never been a conviction of Bill Cosby. Only a Twitter conviction"Making sure to have their moral bases covered when defending an alleged rapist, the trio distanced themselves from the act itself: "We don't condone rape, but we also don't condone accusing an innocent American of rape with no conviction."

  • Garth Brooks Facebook, Twitter: Singer Says He Personally Handles Social Media Posts

    Garth Brooks is now on Facebook and Twitter. In fact, he is showing a real enthusiasm for the whole social media thing, but he had good reasons for staying off the sites for several years."Well, up till August of this year, you've gotta remember, I was in my children's life," Brooks told the "Sean & Richie Show," via The Boot. "That was everything. And, no offense, I didn't feel it was right to share that."Things have changed, though."Pretty cool now, though: The kids are all gone, we're out on tour and people want to know about that?" he said. "Heck, yeah, I can talk about that all day long."Brooks said he is personally handling his own social media posts, marked "Love, g" at the bottom. "Team Garth" is still posting regularly on both sites.

  • Kristian Alfonso Throws a Bit of Shade at the Notion of Peter Reckell Returning to 'Days of Our Lives'

    Way back in the 1980s, soap operas were filled with supercouples, with one of the biggest being "Days of our Lives's" Bo and Hope Brady, played by Peter Reckell and Kristian Alfonso. The two quickly garnered a huge fan base that, even to this day, still rallies for them to reunite. Reckell and Alfonso returned to "Days" in the '90s and had an intertwined storyline until his character was sent packing a few years ago.Reckell has said he understood that his departure was basically making room for younger leading men and that it goes with the territory. But he has never agreed with how his character left town and believes the fans deserved better than what they got.In October, a series of tweets by Reckell led fans to think there was the possibility of him returning to "Days." He later admitted that he did make some calls to producers because he believed there was a logical reason to bring him back onto the canvas. In a recent interview, Alfonso could not have agreed any less and thought that bringing the character of Bo back just to allow Hope to move on was ridiculous.

  • Cosmic First: Philae Lander Touches Down on Comet But Harpoons Are Not Properly Secured to Surface

    A European spacecraft robot named Philae made history today as the 220-pound lander successfully touched down on the surface of a comet, as both hurled through space at 41,000 mph. Philae had separated from Rosetta, the mothership, and researchers spent seven extremely tense hours waiting for a signal indicating that Philae had reached its destination. The European Space Agency's celebration was short-lived, though, as it became apparent that there might be a problem with the landing.The plan was for Philae to gently set itself down on to the comet's uncertain surface and fire two harpoons into it, securing the lander so it could successfully complete a variety of scientific experiments.

  • Michael Muhney Steps Over 'The Young and the Restless' Drama to Juggle Four Different Upcoming Film Roles

    Michael Muhney has moved on from daytime drama and seems excited for his legion of fans to see the new projects he is working on. The actor spent four years slaving away on CBS's soundstage, breathing life into Adam Newman on "The Young and the Restless" before being fired under scandalous circumstances in December. While the actor admitted in August that he had been negotiating a return to the soap, which ultimately fell through, his fans sat on the fence about even the possibility of going back to the soap they felt had treated him badly.

  • Cher Lashes Out After Microsoft CEO Satya Nardella Tells Women Not To Ask For A Raise But To Instead Wait For 'Good Karma' To Reward Them

    Microsoft's CEO Satya Nadella found himself in the hot seat late last week when asked a serious question about pay equality. Currently women generally are earning 78 cents on the dollar to men and so it made perfect sense to ask Nadella how a woman should proceed in business in order to make money. Rather than offering wisdom that the women in attendance could put into use he seemed to be stuck in the dark ages. Not only does Nardella support starting a position at a lower pay rate but he also is against asking for a raise.
