Can It, Old Man.

Shorter Roger L. Simon:

Don't you know who I am? Why, I'm the CEO of a major media company!


Yeah. Roger, contra the title of his shitty memoir, hasn't been blacklisted from the industry -- not by himself or anyone else. If you've read his blog or memoir, you know the truth: he's an astonishingly awful writer. This, and for no other reason, is why he hasn't gotten work since the first Bush Administration. (Unlike, say, Roman Polanski, an admitted child rapist and a fugitive.)

So of course Roger Simon hasn't heard of Wanda Sykes: Why would he be familiar with someone who is never "between projects" and is by any measure a success? Simon and Sykes do not run in the same circles.
