TMZ: 1, Legitimacy: 0

Much to Harvey Levin's glee (chagrin?), the FCC has labeled his syndicated half hour of celebrities walking to and from Starbucks, the valet guy, and Kitson as a proper news program. Why is that even a big deal? Because if it weren't news, then political candidates could demand "equal access" opportunities if TMZ gave airtime to a competing hopeful. Levin's show qualified as "a bona fide newscast because it reports news of some area of current events in a manner similar to more traditional newscasts." God bless American, where Lindsay Lohan smoking a cigarette is news.

No. 1 · Really?

Kitson is a horrible place, over-priced crap that has already been worn by half the staff and D-list celebrities who have to return the goods just days later due to lack of $!
