Kudos to Marie Carnes for linking to a group of media-central articles in the the Illinois Times, Springfield’s intelligent alternative weekly newspaper. I enjoyed the piece on the State Journal Register under GateHouse Media and on how low salaries affect area television stations. For years, I’ve hated the fact that Springfield has a decent...

I’m speaking, of course, about your Flickr badge. I was fiddling around with my little-used Flickr account today and I discovered this fantastic way to incorporate a gallery onto Peoria Pundit. I usually disdain third-party content — except those that bring money my way, like Google AdSense clicks and BlogAds — but this seems...

Now that I have lectured an entire newspaper on accuracy and fairness, I feel the need for a little confession on my own part.
It wrote a little feature on the blues band “Harpin Willie” for the River City Times (which is available for free at numerous area stores and pubs).
The only problem is that...

Today’s strip: Chris Muir is hearing my pleas. Sam is again in the low-cut, skin-tight little black dress. Chris treats up to a front view and a maddeningly curvaceous profile.

Via Slashfilm:
Now there’s a slight update: according to IESB, the shortlist is now only three names: Chris Evans (Sunshine, The Fantastic Four); Channing Tatum (G.I. Joe, Stop-Loss) and Sebastian Stan (Gossip Girl). I’ve stumped for Evans before, but am a bit surprised that he’s still on the list, because of that Fantastic Four association. But that’s no big deal in the long run, as the Marvel Studios film universe has nothing to do with the Fox version of Marvel’s characters. (Confusing!) Evans is easily the best choice here.
Feh. We need a traditional square-jawed hero for this role, not some pretty boy. Evans is an X-games sorta guy. Cap is a baseball/football/track letterman kinda guy. And the FF movies sucked and that kinda stink don’t wash off.
But I am far, far to politically correct to suggest that a black guy who did this wouldn’t be sitting in the Tazewell County Jail right now. Just sayin’.

Of course this would mean that he could be a villain in Iron Man 3 or even the Avengers movie. Now what if each major villain of the Marvel heroes banded together? Mandarin for Iron Man, Red Skull for Captain America, Loki for Thor, …
As for Chris Evans, he was the best part of the Fantastic Four, so why not keep him for a spot in the Avengers movie instead? Sebastian Stan / Wilson Bethel Sebastian Stan and Wilson Bethel are unknowns to me. I don't watch Gossip Girl …
