The president-elect had a successful career as an entertainment celebrity. The question, of course, is: Will Trump's war on entertainment celebrities be successful? Meanwhile, we have to recall that 20th century kinds of censorship of entertainment celebrities did kill careers. His medium had been television. So, he understands the attention game.

Another entertainment legend has passed over. Barbara Hale, who played Della Street on "Perry Mason," has died. She was 94 years old. Here is the coverage from Daily Mail. It was "Perry Mason" which got America hooked on legal drama. Without that, there probably would not have been a market for "LA Law," "Boston Legal," and "The Good Wife." " Today, of course, there would be no market for goody-two-shoes "Perry Mason." MORE

As with all sports, the athletes are well paid. MORE
Binge watching whatever is becoming a preferred way to be entertained. Reduce stress. And hang out with bros and sistas. On the influential "Gillmor Gang," the panel predicts that phenomenon is helping keep television, in all its forms, very much alive. Also it could be dooming movie theatres. When we buy a ticket for a film such as "Manchester By the Sea," we receive an excellent ROI on our investment. But the experience is short. MORE
A red flag is that his latest altercation, this time on a boardwalk at the Jersey Shore, was videoed and recorded by entertainment media property TMZ.
