I wish Donald nothing but the best for Apprentice 2 and I hope it does just as well as his casinos do. You don't come after dogs, you don't come after kids and you don't come after The Hair.
Somebody said that he was trying to break up a fight. There was no fight. He just pushed him. He put his hands to his chest and pushed him. By the way everybody reacted, everybody knew there was a problem, except for the official that got pushed.
Broadcast.com continues to prove that Internet broadcasting is the new medium for companies to interact with consumers, collect valuable customer data, and ultimately drive sales to their products.
It would be a little hypocritical of me. I don't care how they dress. I do care how they act.

The same applies to the music and film industries. Until the heads of the labels start wanting to make money rather than creating controversy, tension, and excuses about why piracy is making the job so hard that no one could do it but them - and oh by the way, they need a raise to really focus in on the fight - the music industry is going to have a very tough time of it.
