GOP front

Who is an early frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination? Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, according to Christians and social conservatives attending the Values Voters Summit in Washington. The Family Research Council--sponsored event, which drew nearly 2,000 people, featured the straw poll during a weekend where most GOP headliners made appearances, including Huckabee, who lost the straw poll in a controversial vote during the 2008 campaign.

Emmys

"Amy [Poehler] and I are honored to be presenting on the last official year of network broadcast television," joked Julia Louis-Dreyfus at the Sept. 20 Primetime Emmy Awards. As the ceremony progressed, her quip grew ever more apropos. More than half of the awards went to shows that you won't see on ABC, NBC, CBS, or FOX, but on an expanding array of cable channels. AMC's Mad Men, along with the F/X drama Damages and Showtime's United States of Tara, took top prizes. The good news for Emmy producers is an increasingly fractured viewing audience appears to be a good ratings strategy: 1 million more viewers tuned in this year than in 2008.
