You can't go wrong by going with the Rolls-Royce of TV news, of course, but Kroft has also clearly earned the trust of the Obamas.

He meant that the business of gathering and disseminating news and information in the Internet age has as much raw potential as Elvis had in his pelvis in 1952. ("America needs a heartbeat, and we can deliver that on 21st Century terms," Abrams opined in March.) </p> <p>The news biz "has never been more vibrant," Abrams said Thursday night during a Q&A at the Los Angeles Press Club. "It's alive. It's exciting. It's the place to be. Let's get on board this thing. The opportunities are stronger than ever." </p> <p>To reiterate, "It's an exciting time to be reporting on all the shit that's going on in the world," Abrams observed. Abrams, senior veep and chief innovation officer for Tribune Co., was 50% of a panel on the future of news that also included former Los Angeles Daily News editor Ron Kaye, who has found his blogging calling at <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091107094104/http://www.ronkayela.com/"><span style="color: #9900ff;"><strong>RonKayeLa.com</strong></span></a><span style="color: #9900ff;"><strong> </strong></span>since getting fired from the Daily Snooze in April. (<em>Pictured from left, Abrams, Kaye and moderator Ezra Palmer)</em></p> <p>Appointed to Sam Zell's extreme Tribune makeover team in April, Abrams is seen as the guy behind all of the redesigns and "rethinking" going on at the Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune and other Tribune-owned newspapers. He has a long resume in radio and marketing, but none in newspapering, which made journos in and outside of Tribune highly skeptical of his ideas for "reinventing" newspapers.</p> <p>Abrams stressed on Thursday that he's an idea and inspiration guy, but final decisions on redesigns on content are left to the local management of each paper. ("Until they're not" -- You just could see the thought balloon hovering over the heads of the crowd, which numbered about 50.)</p> <p>All in all, Abrams came off as affable, smart and well-meaning, though I couldn't get the image of the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091107094104/http://www.fabulousfurryfreakbrothers.com/"><span style="color: #336600;"><strong>Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers</strong></span></a><span style="color: #336600;"><strong> </strong></span>out of my head as I tried to think of the character actor that he resembles.</p> </div> <p class="entry-more-link"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091107094104/http://weblogs.variety.com/on_the_air/2008/11/lee-abrams-trib.html#more"> Continue reading " Lee Abrams: Tribune's idea guy talks redesigns, the L.A.

The pathetic attempts at humor? The wincing and squinting and squirming at tough questions? The tripping over the tongue?</p> <p>Obama, sporting a dark suit and baby-blue tie, came off so calm, cool, collected and in charge, and telegenic as all get-out. Goodness knows we never got much of that from "The George W. Bush Show," with all of its bad acting, ridiculous scripts and horrendous plots.</p> <p>With Obama's resonant voice and natural ease in front of cameras and microphones, he could have had a career in broadcasting had he not gone into politics.</p> <p>Given the flood of bad economic news this morning, Obama opened Friday's newser in what felt like an appropriately somber tone. At first he seemed to be keeping a close eye on his prepared remarks, but he warmed up during the Q&A period. He also knows how to warm up a room full of reporters, paying respect to the local print journos who covered him when. Obama made a point of calling out for a question from Chicago Tribune's John McCormick ("let's give the home town local guy a little bit of time"), and a few moments later asked Chicago Sun-Times columnist Lynn Sweet "what happened to your arm?"</p> <p>(Those of us watching on TV couldn't see exactly but I'm guessing she had a brace or cast on. From what we could gather it was some kind of injury she got in the crowd at Grant Park on Tuesday night for Obama's victory celebration. As the prez-elected noted, Sweet's injury "was probably the only major incident during the entire Grant Park celebration.")</p> <p>Sweet asked the sweet question of exactly what kind of dog the Obamas are planning to get for their daughters, as the president-elect noted in his victory speech on Tuesday night. Obama showed a sense of humor by noting that "this is a major issue for the Obamas" and that there are "two criteria that need to be reconciled" in regard to the procurement of the pooch. </p> </div> <p class="entry-more-link"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091107094104/http://weblogs.variety.com/on_the_air/2008/11/barack-obama-ou.html#more"> Continue reading " Barack Obama: Our telegenic commander in chief " »</a></p>  <p class="entry-footer-tags"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091107094104/http://www.technorati.com/search/http://weblogs.variety.com/on_the_air/2008/11/barack-obama-ou.html" title="Find related items at Technorati.">Technorati Tags</a>: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091107094104/http://technorati.com/tag/Barack%2BObama" rel="tag">Barack Obama</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091107094104/http://technorati.com/tag/George%2BW.%2BBush" rel="tag">George W.
