Just kidding. But seriously, if you're gonna do some devious business crap or deviant personal insanity, do it today. No one's paying attention. Here's all we could scavenge from the desiccated trades today:

· Rupert shuffles money amongst his subsidiaries, as FX gets deal to air seven 20th Century Fox Films of varying quality. [Variety, sub. req'd.]
· Reviewing the year in entertainment "stox." (Kudos to Variety's fake wordsmiths for making the boring business stuff sound so edgy) [Variety, sub. req'd.]
· London Film Critics nominations announced, Sideways makes yet another top list. Coming soon: more movies about dishonest oenephilic nebbishes. [Variety, sub. req'd.]
· ABC wins Wednesday with tsunami "news" show, Wave of Destruction. [THR]
· Ellen ratings up, we have to think in small part, due to America's ongoing love affair with lesbian scandals. [THR]
