  • Promax/Bda Announces Diverse and Provocative Early Lineup of Speakers for 53 Rd Annual Conference
    PROMAX/BDA ANNOUNCES DIVERSE AND PROVOCATIVE EARLY LINEUP OF SPEAKERS FOR 53 RD ANNUAL CONFERENCE Reverend Jesse Jackson, Futurist Nicholas Negroponte, Host of Bravo’s Inside the Actors Studio James Lipton and Hustler TV President Michael Klein Los Angeles, CA – April 2, 2008 – Promax/BDA has confirmed a diverse and relevant early lineup of speakers for its 53 rd annual Promax/BDA Conference (June 17-19, New York). Poised to address a wide range of timely and potentially provocative subjects are the Reverend Jesse Jackson, futurist Nicholas Negroponte, executive producer/writer/host of Bravo’s Inside the Actors Studio James Lipton, and Hustler TV president Michael Klein. The announcement was made today by newly ensconced Promax/BDA President Jonathan Block-Verk, who promised to deliver a conference that would both inspire, inform and impact the business operations of this year’s attendees. “This year’s Promax/BDA event is about delivering the insight and information that inspires unique ideas and opportunities that drive new revenues in the television business,” said Block-Verk. “We recognize that our constituents are faced with hard choices regarding the events they attend, and this year Promax/BDA is the conference that will send attendees back to their offices reinvigorated, energized and bursting with business ideas and marketing plans that build the bottom line.” With the 2008 election spawning history-making headlines and igniting passionate discussions of race, gender and leadership, one of America’s foremost civil rights and political figures, the Reverend Jesse Jackson, will participate in a live interview session hosted by CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, during which he’ll discuss his views on such charged issues, as well as the blurring line between news and entertainment and the impact that has on global culture.

  • United States' Sentencing Memorandum Regarding Defendant Wesley Trent Snipes
    Case 5:06-cr-00022-WTH-GRJ Document 441 Filed 04/14/2008 Page 1 of 37 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA OCALA DIVISION UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. CASE NO. 5:06-cr-22(S1)-Oc-10GRJ WESLEY TRENT SNIPES UNITED STATES' SENTENCING MEMORANDUM REGARDING DEFENDANT WESLEY TRENT SNIPES The United States of America, by and through the undersigned attorneys for the United States, submits this sentencing memorandum regarding defendant Wesley Trent Snipes. For the reasons set forth below, the United States respectfully urges the Court to sentence defendant Snipes to a term of 36 months’ imprisonment and a fine of at least $5 million. I. Introduction The criminal tax laws are designed to protect the public interest in preserving the integrity of the nation’s tax system. Criminal tax prosecutions serve to punish the violator and promote respect for the tax laws. The sentence for the criminal tax scofflaw must be commensurate with the gravity of the offense, and should act as a deterrent to other potential violators. This case cries out for the statutory maximum term of imprisonment, as well as a substantial fine, because of the seriousness of defendant Snipes’ crimes and because of the singular opportunity this case presents to deter tax crime nationwide. For nearly a decade, Snipes has engaged in a campaign of criminal tax conduct combining brazen defiance with insidious concealment. By these means, Snipes has Case 5:06-cr-00022-WTH-GRJ Document 441 Filed 04/14/2008 Page 2 of 37 escaped paying more than $15 million in income tax to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and has pursued an intended fraudulent harm to the United States Treasury of more than $41 million.1 But for the limits of the statutory maximum sentence, the sentencing guidelines would call for term of imprisonment of more than 10 years.

  • Spike Lee: Avant-Garde Filmmaker
    Ayana McNair Avant-Garde Cinema CTCS 518, David James Fall 2004 12.09.04 Spike Lee: Avant-Garde Filmmaker Spike Lee came into mainstream consciousness with 1986’s She’s Gotta Have It. Since then, he has enjoyed a long and illustrious career as a filmmaker, writing, directing, producing, and starring in several very successful pictures that have highlighted some aspect of Black life in America. Films such as Do the Right Thing, School Daze, Jungle Fever, Bamboozled, and Malcolm X have catapulted Spike Lee into international stardom, making him one of the most, if not the most, notorious Black filmmakers of today. Arguably, he has reached the status of cultural icon in this country, evidenced by a parody of him on “The Simpsons”; as we know, an appearance on “The Simpsons” is the true sign that you’ve “made it.” Spike Lee’s films typically explore some issue prevalent in the Black community. Spike Lee’s rise to fame can be attributed to his bold and daring manner of dealing with issues previously unexplored in the mainstream. She’s Gotta Have It, his debut feature, explored intraracial dating, female promiscuity, and sexual power relations. ‘88’s School Daze again looked at intraracial relations, this time bringing to light the topic of skin tone and color bias within the Black community (that is, light-skinned Blacks versus dark-skinned) and the deep-seated tensions surrounding this issue. 1991 saw the release of Jungle A. McNair 1 Fever, the film that, arguably, catapulted Wesley Snipes and Samuel L. Jackson to stardom; in Jungle Fever, we got Spike Lee’s take on, this time, interracial dating, between a Black man and a white woman, and the tension surrounding such relationships.

Thus, if a network creates different "line items" to denote different seasons or different day/time periods of the same series within the calendar year, both entries are listed separately.
