Well, for those of you who have already had enough of people reinterpreting The Diary of Anne Frank, you might want to skip Masterpiece on April 11th when PBS unveils the latest adaptation of Frank's diary.  How is this adaptation going to be any different?  Hopefully we can look forward to a heaping dose of that wry humor that British stage actors love adding to famous tragedies.

Wait!  It gets better!

Want to tell your friends you saw a special sneak preview of the upcoming PBS special AND heard esteemed Jewish studies lecturer Whoopi Goldberg discuss Anne Frank?  You can!  In New York City, April 6th, at 92Y: it's on!

Ann Coulter, that perfect storm of provocative irrelevance, appeared today on The View to shill her latest book, "Guilty."  During the "Hot Topics" segment of the show, before Ann came out for her interview, several of the show's cohosts criticized a section of Coulter's book which criticizes single mothers, particularly famous actresses who become single mothers to, in Coulter's opinion, further their own careers. Cohost Whoopi Goldberg, who raised her daughter as a single mother, took offense with Coulter's arguments.

When Coulter came out a few minutes later, she derailed a conversation about other topics in her book (namely, her criticism of people like Barack Obama and Halle Berry for embracing their African-American sides instead of the race of their white mothers) by referring to the "Hot Topics" discussion of her book. "I have never heard my book read aloud like you're reading Mein Kampf," she sniffed. Sadly, Barbara Walters did not reach across the table and throttle Coulter at that second.

A full clip of the Mein Kampf reference is available at Jezebel.com. What do you think: valid complaint, or blatant cry for attention?
