Michigan Connection to the Oscars

Posted by Lori Moore on

The Oscar nominated film "The Hurt Locker" is the subject of a federal lawsuit in Detroit by Master Sergeant Jeffrey Sarver.  The producers claim it is a work of fiction, but he says that the movie is not only based on HIS life, but that he coined the phrase that became the film's title.  The always festive Geoffrey Feiger is his lawyer.

Huge ratings for Jay Leno's return to "THE TONIGHT SHOW".  He handily kicked David Letterman's butt, but not as many people tuned in for his return as they did his goodbye.

A switcheroo last night on "IDOL".  It was supposed to be Ladies' Night, but one of the contestants had to be hospitalized for diabetes related complications.  At short notice the guys took the stage last night.  The gals, including Crystal Bowersox will perform tonight.  2 guys and 2 girls will be kicked off tomorrow.
