...series to its fledgling FX cable network for a puny $400,000 per episode. (ER, by way of comparison, was sold into syndication to TNT for $1.2 million a show.) Not only did Fox fail to shop NYPD Blue to other prospective buyers, Bochco alleges, but the studio hid interest from other networks so it could supply its own cable channel on the cheap. This isn't the first such case brought against a media giant. Disney settled a similar suit from the producers of Home Improvement, and actor DAVID DUCHOVNY has another pending against Fox over...
...declared bankruptcy), and racy films brought in the money. But they also fanned the ire of state and local censorship boards. In 1934 the new Production Code had teeth, and under Joseph I.

They returned to Minnesota, and she occasionally sent messages to her parents in Palmdale, Calif. They met her husband and daughters. "She never hid," her mother Elsie said proudly last week. The last time the elder Soliahs visited with their daughter was a decade ago, in a park in Santa Clarita, a town between Palmdale and Los Angeles. It was just for an hour or two, Soliah's mother told TIME. "We tried to reassure...
Along with everything else she came to represent, Anne Frank symbolized the power of a book. Because of the diary she kept between 1942 and 1944, in the secret upstairs annex of an Amsterdam warehouse where she and her family hid until the Nazis found them, she became the most memorable figure to emerge from World War II--besides Hitler, of course, who also proclaimed his life and his beliefs in a book. In a way, the Holocaust began with one book and ended with another. Yet it was Anne's that finally prevailed--a beneficent and complicated work outlasting...
