Notoriety still paid in 2003, to an extent. Rapper 50 Cent parlayed a tabloid-lurid story--he has been shot, he claims, nine times--into the year's top-selling album. And Demi Moore helped her celebrity profile by hooking up with Ashton Kutcher--more, probably, than she helped her summer flick, Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle. But whom did we actually want to see in a movie...
...companies.) And if iPod users pick and choose singles rather than pay $18 for filler-loaded albums (which were invented more for business than artistic reasons in the first place), it frees them to sample more genres and artists. The trade-off is a flightier, more mercurial and more tabloid pop culture. Its one unifying trait, perhaps, is simply the desire to check out what all the fuss is about.

We eat up his records one day and crucify him the next...
...brother Lachlan as the most likely successor to their father, who is 72. Hardworking Lachlan, 32, who had long been viewed as Daddy's favorite, runs News Corp.'s U.S. publishing and TV business from New York City, where he has had some success turning around the perpetually troubled tabloid the New York Post. The subject of succession is clearly a sensitive one in the family. When questioned recently by a journalist, James, looking agitated, snapped, "It would be very nice to put that speculation to bed." Maybe Fox could create a new TV show to settle it: Who Wants...
