Hollywood Trades, Meet Your Brand New Watchdog
The operator of the cheeky new Blogspot page Trade Fools wishes to remain “anonymous on all fronts.” Which is fine by us. It worked for Mark Lisanti during the earliest days of defamer.com and doesn’t seem to have hurt the media profile of that Crazy Days and Nights dude either.
The site is a solid work-in-progress. For example, items like today’s “Whitney Houston Reality Crap: Who Had It First?” need to do more than simply note which mouth of the four-headed beast was quickest to the content buffet.
On the other hand, the poll question on the right-hand margin is pretty funny and a May 9 item shared some good info about Deadline contributor Don Groves. All told, Trade Fools is a welcome addition to the Hollywood-centric blogosphere.
The author is also soliciting reader comments wherever possible, asking for example for feedback about the reviews of The Dictator posted on THR by Todd McCarthy and at Variety by Peter DeBruge. We got the ball rolling just now; go take a look at the site and chime in as well. Because the more people help Anon get rolling, the merrier a bookmarked place this will be.
