Political figures jostle for Oscar spotlight
NEW YORK - It seems appropriate that Benicio Del Toro takes a diplomatic stance when discussing the differences between playing a recognizable political figure and portraying a purely fictional character. "There are ups and downs," says the actor, whose turn as Argentine revolutionary Che Guevara in "Che" is receiving widespread critical praise. "The up is that there is a lot of information -- a lifetime of information. That can be overwhelming at times, but that is an up because you don't have to create it."
Networks devoted more time to election: report
NEW YORK - The presidential election and worsening economy pushed the war in Iraq mostly out of the headlines, especially among the Big Three evening newscasts. The Big Three newscasts devoted a total of 3,677 minutes to the presidential campaign in 2008, according to network news analyst Andrew Tyndall of the Tyndall Report.

HBO lands rights to inaugural ceremony
NEW YORK - HBO will kick off coverage of Inauguration Week with an exclusive Sunday, January 18, telecast of the star-studded opening ceremony, two days before the saturation coverage of President-elect Barack Obama's inauguration begins in earnest. In 1993, HBO paid $1.5 million to the Presidential Inaugural Committee to televise Bill Clinton's kickoff from the Lincoln Memorial, something that annoyed non-HBO subscribers who weren't able to watch the concert by Bob Dylan and Diana Ross.
