• 101- The traditional Hollywood Christmas parade is just around the corner By Gary Sunkin

••• Led by Grand Marshal Danny Trejo, the prolific Actor, Author and Restaurateur, the live parade was presented by Associated Television International in association with The City of Los Angeles, hosted by Erik Estrada, Laura McKenzie, Dean Cain and Montel Williams, with Special Co-Host Elizabeth Stanton, Host of Season Three of The CW's hit television show, World's Funniest Animals.

••• Since 1928 the live Hollywood Christmas Parade has been a loved and cherished annual holiday tradition enjoyed by Angelenos, as well as by millions watching the televised airings of the parade nationally on The CW Network and internationally on Armed Forces Network around the world.  The only exceptions were during World War II from 1942 to 1944 when the parade wasn't presented, and, of course, last year in 2020, when the parade wasn't presented due the COVID 19 global pandemic.  The parade was then presented live again in 2021, and returns this year to celebrate its historic 90th Anniversary live in the streets of Hollywood, CA!

Grand Marshals who have appeared in The Hollywood Christmas Parade during the last 90 years include:  Jeanette Loft, Joe E. Brown, Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, Joan Leslie, Sheriff Eugene Biscailuz, Harry Sherman. Irene Rich, Bob Hope, Art Linklater, Lawrence Welk, Charlton Heston, Dale Evans and Roy Rogers, Danny Thomas, Mary Pickford, Dick Van Dyke, Robert Vaughn, Pat Boone, Fred McMurray, Buddy Ebsen, Walter Matthau, Ernest Borgnine, Johnny Mathis, General Robert E.

Oz, Nancy O'Dell, Mario Lopez and Sheryl Underwood.

•••• The Hollywood Christmas Parade was originally called the Santa Claus Lane Parade.  When the American performer Gene Autry, who was known as The Singing Cowboy, was riding on his horse down Hollywood Boulevard in the 1946 Santa Claus Lane Parade, he heard young parade spectators in the crowd exclaim, "Here comes Santa Claus!"  This incident became the inspiration for Autry to compose the traditional perennial Christmas holiday song, "Here Come's Santa Claus (Right Down Santa Claus Lane)," which he co-wrote with Oakley Haldeman in 1949.  Autry first recorded the song in 1947.  The song was released as a single by Columbia Records, and became a #5 country and #9 pop hit at the time. 

•••• Gene Autry is the only celebrity to have five stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, one in each of the five categories, Motion Pictures, Radio, Recording, Television and Live Theater.  Today the intersection of Hollywood Boulevard at Highland Avenue, part of the Hollywood Christmas Parade route, is named Gene Autry Square.

•••• The 2022 holiday season marks the 75th anniversary of the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program in a special Nationwide celebration of this significant milestone.
•••• For over seven decades, the Program has evolved and grown exponentially having delivered hope and the magic of Christmas to over 281 million less fortunate children. Now, in its 75th year, the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program also provides year-round support to families experiencing challenges and exceptional circumstances, thus helping to fulfill the hopes and dreams of millions of families and children in need across our great Nation.
••• This anniversary year will provide opportunities to highlight the Marine Corps Reserve and the Toys for Tots Program on a National level with opportunities to share our rich history, heritage, and the tremendous community support we receive each and every year. We are proud to have this occasion commemorated by famous American Pop Artist Charles Fazzino. The net proceeds from the sales of his official anniversary poster will go directly towards our mission.

• 108-Mark Burnett exits MGM as Amazon reorganizes integration of MGM into its own studio operations
LOS ANGELES - 11/29/22 - TVIMagazine
••••It was announced Monday that reality television producer Mark Burnett, who served as MGM's television president for eight years, resigned from his top leadership role amid Amazon's efforts to integrate MGM into its own studio operations.
•••• Burnett is best known for introducing unscripted scripts "Survivor" and "The Apprentice" with Donald Trump to U.S. audiences. In recent years, he has served as chairman of MGM's worldwide television group, overseeing a slate of original programs including NBC's "The Voice," CBS's "Survivor," ABC's " "Shark Tank" and "The Handmaid's Tale."
•••• The move comes eight months after Amazon purchased MGM for $8.5 billion, a key component of the e-commerce giant's efforts to bulk up its content library for Amazon Prime Video subscribers. As a significant equity holder in MGM, Burnett profited handsomely from the Amazon deal. In the nine years since he first sold his One Three Media production banner to MGM, Burnett has reaped an estimated $900 million.

• 114- Jiang Zemin, former President of the Peoples Republic of China, died in Shanghai
BEIJING, Nov 30 -- Former Chinese President Jiang Zemin, who led the country for a decade of rapid economic growth after the Tiananmen crackdown in 1989, died on Wednesday at the age of 96,
••••Numerous users of China's Twitter-like Weibo platform described the death of Jiang, who remained influential after finally retiring in 2004, as the end of an era.
•••• Jiang died in his home city of Shanghai of leukaemia and multiple organ failure, Xinhua news agency said, publishing a letter to the Chinese people by the ruling Communist Party, parliament, Cabinet and the military.
•••• "Comrade Jiang Zemin's death is an incalculable loss to our Party and our military and our people of all ethnic groups," the letter read, saying its announcement was with "profound grief".
•••• Jiang's death comes at a tumultuous time in China, where authorities are grappling with rare widespread street protests
•••• The zero-COVID policy is a hallmark of President Xi Jinping, who recently secured a third leadership term that cements his place as China's most powerful leader since Mao Zedong and has taken China in an increasingly authoritarian direction since replacing Jiang's immediate successor, Hu Jintao.
•••• China is also in the midst of a sharp economic slowdown exacerbated by zero-COVID.
•••• Even though Jiang put down student protests in Shanghai that were part of the wave of pro-democracy demonstrations that culminated in the bloody crackdown at Beijing's Tiananmen Square, some Chinese expressed nostalgia for the more liberal times he oversaw.

•••• As a note, Troy Cory, iPublisher of Television Int'l Magazine (tvimagazine.com) performed at The Shanghai TV Festival where he met Jiang Zemin when Jiang was mayor of Shanghai. Many more meetings took place at future TV Festivals in Shanghai, concerts in Beijing, as well as at a reception at the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills and Pasadena in 1997.

• 2022 celebrates the 33rd Anniversary of the World Wide Web - Television Int'l Magazine
•••• In 1989 the world's largest physics laboratory, CERN was a hive of ideas and information stored on multiple incompatible computers. Tim Berners-Lee envisioned a unifying structure for linking information across different computers and wrote an proposal in 1989 called "Information Management: A Proposal." By 1991 this vision of universal connectivity had become the Word Wide Web.

•••• From Monday, November 14 to Friday, November 18, the 40 short films from 21 countries (of production) in the international competition will be screened in ten modules in the Audimax at the University of Television and Film Munich (HFF). The screenings will be held at 6:30 pm and 9 pm.

•••• Chairing the jury this year is internationally renowned, multiple award-winning Hungarian film director Ildikó Enyedi. She and four other jury members -- last year's VFF Young Talent Award recipient Yana Sad, Slovak director Mira Fornay (recipient of the CineRebel Award at FILMFEST MÜNCHEN 2022), film editor Özcan Vardar and journalist Quentin Lichtblau -- will decide who is to receive each of the various awards in the international competition.
••••Enyedi has long been a constant in international auteur cinema, as the Golden Bear she received at the Berlinale in 2017 for her drama ON BODY AND SOUL attests. As artful as it is beguilingly sophisticated, that film is a love story about two peculiar individuals who discover by chance that they both dream the same thing every night. By day, they're co-workers in a location that's not exactly synonymous with love and romance: a slaughterhouse. Hesitantly and little by little, the two approach each other through delicate gestures. The camera observes this every bit as carefully and cautiously as the protagonists' tender advances.
•••• Love is a central theme in Enyedi's works, as in her latest film, THE STORY OF MY WIFE, which is based on the novel of the same title by Hungarian author Milán Füst. As Enyedi explained in an interview with Arte in 2021 on the occasion of the film's world premiere in competition at the Cannes Film Festival, she sees the book as nothing less than a declaration of love for life, and at the same time a reminder of how fleeting life is. This was her first time working with an international cast, and one that includes such illustrious actors as Lea Seydoux, Louis Garrel, Josef Hader, and Ulrich Matthes. Set in the 1920s, this period film tells the story of a rather gruff ship captain who bets a friend that he will marry the first woman to walk through the door of the café they're in. The gimmick of the whole thing is that the film is told exclusively from the perspective of the captain, who slowly but surely realizes that the patriarchal mentality he grew up with is no longer getting him anywhere.
•••• During the week of the festival, free workshops and panel discussions will also be held at the HFF. These are aimed at students and professors as well as interested memberThe honors will be presented at the Award Ceremony on November 19.
•••• The Opening of the 41st FILMSCHOOLFEST MUNICH will be be held on November 13, the Award Ceremony on November 19. (Both events are by invitation only.)

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 7, 2022 -- 114- Beloved 'Oldies But Goodies' Radio Legend Art Laboe Died - Television Int'l Magazine
••• "The Art Laboe Connection," announced that he died at his home in Palm Spring sat age 97 after battling pneumonia.
•••• Laboe's voice filled Southern California's airwaves for more than 70 years. He was known for being the first DJ to play rock 'n' roll on the West Coast. He created an compilation album titled Oldies But Goodies,' a term he trademarked. Laboe became a beloved figure for generations of fans, particularly for Latinos, for his call-in dedication show, which aired first on HOT 92.3 FM and then on KDAY-FM (93.5).
••••Born Art Egnoian on August 7, 1925, in Salt Lake City. Laboe served in the Navy during World War II and. after serving he did stints at various radio stations and changed his name to Laboe when a general manager said it was catchier. When rock 'n' roll struck the airwaves in the 1950s, Laboe launched a live broadcast from Scrivners, a drive-in restaurant in Hollywood. Masses of teens crowded around him to request songs and dedications, and his career took off.
•••• Having worked as a DJ since the mid-'40s, including stints in San Francisco and Palm Springs, his first L.A. station homes were KXLA-AM (later KRLA) and KPOP. Laboe took his show on the road and did live remote shows from midnight till 4 a.m. at a local drive-in restaurant on Cahuenga and Sunset -- taking requests and becoming popular with the late-night crowd.
••••In 1959, Laboe formed record label Original Sound Records to promote new musical talent he discovered. The same year the label released two instrumental hit songs: "Teen Beat", the breakout hit by Sandy Nelson and "Bongo Rock" by Preston Epps. Laboe also received writing credit on both songs.
••••Later he moved to KXLA (subsequently KRLA), where he stayed for many years.
In the 1990s, Laboe worked for radio station KGGI.
•••• He was one of the first DJs to play rock-n-roll in California. ArtLaboe250w.jpg

• 115- CANNES, the jewel among film festival towns
•••• Cannes is host to the annual Festival de Cannes, as well as MIDEM, MIP TV and MICOM (Marché International des Programmes de Communication organized by RX France, formerly known as Reed Midem. It's been 35 years since TVI under Cory's ownership first covered MIPCOM in 1987.
•••• Although Cannes has remained the quintessential market place, despite enormous changes in the cinema, television, streaming and social media landscape, it was more casual back in 1987, of course. You could hang out with studio executives without much planning or go see a performer in his hotel room and spend the afternoon in discussing the latest video. There was no "French day," the interview period now set aside so French journalists can get their stories before everyone else.
•••• And many things were simpler. Though it sounds paradoxical, even getting stories back to my TVI Magazine -- it was less time-consuming in that pre-computer age. The festival headquarters had a room where telex operators who spoke not a word of English -- took your typewritten copy, grunted something unintelligible and transmitted it to the U.S. without a hitch.
•••• Since then, Cannes has only gotten bigger. Though we now live in an age when films can be viewed via links and streamed on computers anywhere in the world, the number of journalists covering the 4-day affair has multiplied.
•••• Cannes got off the ground after World War II with the Cannes Film Festival, and followed by tv markets MIPTV and VIDCOM, later MIPCOM when the market festival also responded to the advent of home video technology, including VCRs, DVDs and Blu-ray. As those new formats drove interest in older films and tv series and both French and American distributors wanted a platform to publicize their plans to re-release classics.
•••• Cannes is not just a festival that screens rarefied films. It also hosts a major market, known officially as the Marche du Film (established in 1959) held annually in conjunction with the Festival de Cannes, where about 4,000 films are shown to buyers from more than 100 countries. Here, deals are cut to bring movies to theaters in countries around the world or to release them on video or in digital formats.
••••This kind of willingness and ability to literally pay the price to keep the festival relevant is a through-line in Cannes' response to challenges. The event's annual budget is a staggering 20 million euros, roughly $26 million, and half of that comes from governmental tax funds. The French public considers film to be part of its cultural patrimony and is quite willing to foot the bill to be the best.
••••Part of that money goes to making the city as pleasant as it can be for festival visitors. Two months before the event begins, flowers get planted so they will bloom on schedule. One of the treats of getting to Cannes early is watching enormous cranes place huge, blossom-filled concrete planters into strategic positions along the Riviera.
••••Given how easy it is to see films these days without leaving your room, why do people continue to spend such considerable time, energy and money to go to Cannes?
•••• Because, despite the billions of dollars involved, the movie and television business remains a personal one, where relationships count and seeing people face to face from time to time is essential. Cannes has made sure that there's no place better to do that than Cannes. What was true in 1946 is still true today: Everyone goes to Cannes because everyone else is there. No other place can make that claim, not even close.

• Autumn in Cannes By Josie Cory
AHHH.... Autumn in Cannes... where mild breezes blow as the warm Mediterranean sun smiles over this beautiful spot on the Cote d'Azur. There you can feel a timeless sensuality, assuaging a nostalgia for the Mediterranean which since as far back as the 16th century has been a constant theme in many a Northern European's life.
•••• "Now give us lands where the olives grow," Cried the North to the South, "Where the sun with a golden mouth can blow bubbles of grapes down the vineyard row!" Cried the North to the South (to borrow a phrase from the English writer Elizabeth Barret Browning.)
•••• "Cannes," wrote Charles Lentheric, the indispensable and erudite historian of maritime Provence, in 1880, " is a town where you feel no need to work," and where the inhabitants were not interested in the world that lay beyond their shady gardens, or the sheltered balconys of their hotels. Now the world has come to Cannes, chosen to be the Mediterranean headquarters for its annual events, and when you stroll along the Croisette on some warm October day you will hardly share Mr. Lenteric's sentiments. Cannes at festival time blossoms into a cosmopolitan spot.

• 115- Industry Players to meet at MIPCOM 2022, October 17- 20 at Cannes, France.
•••• International TV market Mipcom is set to return to the Croisette in October and major exhibitors have already signed up.
•••• The event, which has been quietly rebranded as Mipcom Cannes, runs from October 17-20 at the Palais des Festivals. Kids' content market Mip Junior will return to its pre-market weekend slot from Oct. 15-16, at the JW Marriott.
••••Fox Entertainment CEO Charlie Collier will give a keynote speech at Mipcom as the event prepares to welcome back several U.S. and UK studios following pandemic-triggered absences.
•••• Collier will provide insight into the Fox Entertainment business, explain his growth strategy and address wider industry issues. He leads the overall creative and commercial vision for the Murdoch family-owned operation, which spans the Fox broadcast network, in-house unscripted studio Fox Alternative Entertainment and scripted arm Fox Entertainment Studios
•••• Organizers RX France, formerly known as Reed Midem, revealed that a tranche of 200-plus exhibitors are on board for Mipcom. New Co- production market as well as big international players such as Beta Film, Cineflix Rights, CJ ENM, Endeavor Content, Global Agency, Keshet International, Studiocanal and Warner Bros. International Television Distribution.
•••• Noticeably missing from the group, however, is BBC Studios. The commercial distribution arm of the BBC was last in Mipcom in 2019 with a British-designed, two-floor aluminium stand that was close to the Croisette. The company, like many others, has been missing from Cannes ever since, due to the pandemic. While MipTV was staged for the first time since 2020 in April, a number of major distributors opted to stay behind as it was a much-reduced event.
•••• Elsewhere, Mipcom has also launched a new International Co-Production Market in the Palais des Festivals that's dedicated to "accelerating international co-production and development business in Cannes." At its heart is the Seaview Producers Hub, a 1,000 square-metre networking lounge and event space, that's meant to "reflect the increased focus at the market for exploring early-stage development and co-production partnerships."

• 115- Is Hollywood ready for the Golden Globes' return? But serious questions remain
•••• Last year, NBC pulled the plug and dropped the broadcast of the 2022 Globes. A contingent of powerful publicists boycotted the organization and studios including Netflix and WarnerMedia cut ties after a Los Angeles Times investigation raised questions about the group's financial and ethical lapses and revealed that not one of the HFPA's then-87 members was Black, sparking a widespread backlash
•••• NBC dropped the 2022 Golden Globes broadcast "until more meaningful changes are made."
•••• After resisting change, the HFPA vowed to reform. It was a messy process marked by infighting and notable missteps: Former eight-term president Phil Berk stepped down after sending an email to members comparing Black Lives Matter to a hate group; its diversity consultant quit; and two members resigned in protest.
•••• NBC is poised to resurrect the Golden Globes and broadcast the awards ceremony in time for its 80th anniversary next January. The announcement could come as early as this week.
•••• This would be a major step for the Hollywood Foreign Press Assn., the voting group behind the Globes, which has spent much of the past two years attempting to get back into Hollywood's good graces after the industry turned its collective back on them.
•••• But many in the industry say serious questions remain about the organization, casting doubts on who might participate in next year's ceremony.
•••• Although beset by scandals for nearly eight decades, the HFPA, a small, mysterious band of foreign journalists, brandished outsized influence in Hollywood.
•••• Now, the idea of bringing back the Globes has split the industry into various factions: drop them, keep them or "let's wait and see."

• 114- Scott B. Whitenack-Stubblefield Esq., great-grand son of wireless telephone inventor, Nathan B. Stubblefield, died - By Troy Cory
Scott Bryan Whitenack passed away untimely on September 18, in Los Angeles, CA.
•••• Scott, aka Scott Stubblefield, was one of four children with siblings, Alden, Keith, and Priscilla. (His brother Keith pre-ceded him in death at the age of 32). His parents were Troy Cory Stubblefield, an entertainer and author and Dorothy Swafford, owner of a furniture and antiques retail store. Scott's children are Steven, David and grand-children, William, Bruce, Cora and Max, borne to Steven and Skylark. Scott's great-grandfather is Nathan B. Stubblefield, the inventor of Radio, in 1882, and patent holder of the wireless telephone (1908) and his great-great-great .... grandparents were - John and Priscilla Alden who were part of the pilgrimage who sailed on the Mayflower to Plymouth Rock from England in 1620.

(The Stubblefield story is incorporated within several photographs and denotes of and about S Scott to show how their personal ambitions and dreams parallel each other - both died - before their dreams and ambitions were fulfilled)

•••• During the time he studied for the State Bar, Scott lived with Josie and myself on our family estate in Pasadena. He passed the State Bar the first time and was among only 33% to do so. The balance of time was spent doing cinematography for my TV shows, which he considered an artistic outlet besides his major life's work, in the field of law. After he passed the State Bar he handled numerous legal cases and ended up working as an associate lawyer with Melvin Belli with whom he engaged in several cases and won a lawsuit that became precedent case law. Whitenack was committed to his legal profession for over three decades.
•••• If you needed legal advice or help with a motion filing, Scott was there with his trusty law books. He was very intelligent, outspoken and an independent thinker.
•••• He also was a family man, who loved hiking and scuba diving, a good game of tennis and enjoyed bringing his sons to Paramount Ranch for regular family outings and Father's Day get-togethers.
•••• As to his love for cinematography he videotaped additional segments for the movie "Christmas around the World." Scott later became my producer and cinematographer for "To Catch a Dream" filmed in Europe. The video project brought him and the production team to Paris, Venice, Cannes, Munich and Salzburg. Said footage with perfect picture-book pans of the Eiffel Tower, the Seine River, the leaning Tower of Pisa and the Venice Bridge of Sigh, is a legacy he left behind for us.
•••• In the early 90s during the writing of our 4-volume set of books entitled "the SMART-DAAF Boys" about the invention of radio and the the wireless telephone, Scott lent a helpful hand in giving his legal aspect of his great-grandfather Nathan Stubblefield's copyrighted and patented invention. He also was the co-author of "Bank America, the Tortfeasor." •
•••• His favorite poem is found on a card he prepared for one of my Father's Days titled "The Force That Through The Green Fuse Drives The Flower."

••••• He leaves behind his father, Troy Cory-Stubblefield, his mother Dorothy Steele, sister Priscilla Stubblefield Cory, brother Alden Stubblefield, step mother Josie Cory-Stubblefield, ex-wife Lore Engel Whitenack, sons David and Steven, daughter-in law Skylar, and great-grandchildren, William, Bruce, Cora and Max. His brother Keith pre-ceded him in death at the age of 32).

It's denouncement dissolves six miles north of Murray, Kentucky, in a two-room shanty constructed of pine and cornstalks, where radio's uncelebrated architect is discovered 48 hours after his death, his records scattered, his equipment destroyed, his brain partly eaten by rats.
