Media Watch: All-Saddam News TV dominates the cable -- looks like Baghdad Television in the 80's! "Queer Eye For The Straight Guy" had a self-congratulatory holiday party -- the original participants got to sit-in on the cattiness too. One thing about the show -- lots of (video) shots of alcoholic beverages makes it look like a drunk-fest, which may or may not be true. There were also related appearences of the "Fab Five" on Oprah, and a puzzling "making the video" half-hour program -- WHAT video? Oh well, Jai, the "culture guy," came across as a more intelligent person than he often appears to be in the show.
