Back in the 1960s, if you were female and wanted to be a journalist, you would have had to content yourself with getting coffee for the “real” reporters (i.e. men), making copies (for men), and maybe (if you were lucky) doing research work and writing (which men would read).

If you're downtown and looking for a lunch-hour chill-out tomorrow (Wednesday), head over to Indigo in the Manulife Centre at Bay and Bloor.

What if George Stroumboulopoulos was running the show?

Brad J. Lamb is not, to put it gently, universally loved.

In a strange turn of events, Canadian media heartthrob, George Stroumboulopoulos confirms that he has signed on to the new ABC reality show, The ONE: Making a Music Star which debuts on July 18th.

The Tall Poppy Interview - Rannie Turingan, Photojunkie

The verdict: decentralisation does not work. It's all a bluff. TOist is shocked. Does Tyler mean that Sook Yin's not actually in Winnipeg even though she says she is? It can't be true.
